Is a gas lamp near you malfunctioning? As I travel around town, I notice MANY gaslamps that do not have all 3 mantles glowing and it would be incredibly helpful if everyone pitched in to report them.
South Orange’s signature gas lamps offer less illumination than a normal street lamp, so it’s important from a public safety perspective that they always work at maximum capacity.
The Village is asking residents to take an active role by being aware of how to recognize a problem and report it to PSEG. If there is a gas lamp in front of your property, we would like you to adopt it. Keep an eye on it and report any malfunction. It takes only minutes to save $'s and gas.
Here are the basics to know:
• All gas lamps operate with a triple mantle burner.
• Each lamp should have three glowing mantles 24 hours a day. In addition, the globe should be clean and clear. Reporting a malfunction or dirty globe is easy. Simply go to the Village website, http://www.southorange.org/, and from the opening page, top left, under “Easy Access,” click on “Report Streetlight Outage. ”You’ll be connected to a PSE&G Customer Service form, where you can report your observations.
• Or call 1-800-436-PSEG (7734) to give the location of the gas lamp, and the nearest cross street.
