1-13-15 governor orders “precautionary” state of emergency for propane

todayJanuary 13, 2015

The director of the Wisconsin Propane Gas Association says Governor Walker’s declaration of an Energy Emergency is a good proactive approach following last winter’s propane shortage.  The governor announced Friday the state of emergency was being declared as a precautionary measure in response to unexpected, intermittent service interruptions on the Mid-American East-Blue pipeline at the Janesville terminal.  Association director Brandon Scholz tells WFDL news this is one of a number of steps taken in the past year to avoid another propane shortage like the one that impacted the Midwest last winter.
