Natural Gas Development Services
The Engineering and Construction Bureaus build and maintain the underground pipeline system that delivers natural gas to Long Beach and Signal Hill residents and businesses. We design and install natural gas pipelines, monitor gas pressure, flow, and quality, and provide timely responses to gas pipeline emergencies. The Development Engineers and Gas Construction Inspectors work with the developers, contractors, and homeowners to assist in the process of providing gas service.
The forms, standards, and guidelines below are provided as a starting point for the developer, contractor, or homeowner in completing their project efficiently.
