Gas Line Damage at Utah State Correctional Facility Prompts Quick Response and Precautionary Measures

A contractor preparing ground for a greenhouse foundation damaged a gas line at the Utah State Correctional Facility on Monday.

Fire crews are on scene to assess the situation. A repair crew is also enroute. No injuries have been reported.

Out of an abundance of caution, the air handlers in the Bear 4 and Green housing units have been turned off. In addition, those working in the Utah Correctional Industries’ plant in Bear have been sent back to their housing units.

We will provide updates on repairs as they become available.
