Safety Notice to Natural Gas Farm Tap Customers
Northern Natural gas operates high pressure pipelines that deliver natural gas to local gas distribution companies who then distrubute the gas to your homes, farms and businesses.
If you are a Farm Tap customer, you receive natural gas from a "tap" into the Northern Natural Gas interstate high pressure transmission line.
Your local natural gas
distribution company
provides retail sales service to
you including billing and
operations support. To
report the smell of gas, call
your local gas distribution company.

If you ever need to excavate, you must call your local One Call Center. In
most states, it's the law. One Call Centers are also commonly known as Dig
Safe or Call Before You Dig. A Northern representative will respond and properly
identify where the Northern Natural Gas high-pressure pipeline is buried,
helping you to avoid a dangerous situation. |

Common examples of when to call One Call: chisel plowing, deep ripping,
sub soiling, building water ways, setting posts, tileplowing, terrace projects
and other deep excavations. |
