Gas leaks, odor of gas, damaged lines, carbon monoxide symptoms and water main breaks are all considered emergencies.
If you smell gas, do not attempt to locate the leak. Instead, leave the house or building right away. Do not use any electrical switches, appliances, lights, telephones, or mobile devices, as an electrical charge could create a spark. When you are in a safe place, call M.U.D.'s emergency hotline at 402.554.7777 or 9-1-1.

Metropolitan Utilities District released its annual consumer confidence report on water quality, confirming that the metro Omaha area’s water continues to meet or exceed all state and federal standards for drinking water.
“Although we are required to publish this report every year, it provides an opportunity to reassure our customers that we continue to supply high-quality tap water,” said M.U.D. President Mark Doyle. “We remain diligent in providing life-essential services to the community, including safe and reliable water to meet the needs of our customers,” Doyle said.

M.U.D.’s water is regulated by the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). M.U.D. uses multiple barriers of protection from pathogens including disinfection and filtration that target viruses and other contaminants. M.U.D.’s dedicated team of water quality experts continually monitor and test the water system. Water samples are checked routinely over 1,000 times a day to ensure a safe supply.
