City News
The City of Bushnell would like to ask our utility customers to try and conserve their gas consumption as safely as possibly through the weekend.
We understand that the weather is brutal and our furnaces are running on overtime to keep up with the cold.
We are asking you to reduce your gas consumption as safely as possible for the coming days until the cold snap breaks
(between now and Saturday, February 20th). The natural gas grid continues to deteriorate.
Natural gas processing plants are losing power which in turn reduces the amount of natural gas available to pipelines serving the ENTIRE MIDWEST
For those who have already made adjustments you are making a difference. Keep up the good work.
