The Gap in our Public AwarenessEfforts - - -
Reaching schools that were located near our pipeline system
To bridge this gap we implemented a
TEACHER AWARENESS PROGRAM(now in our 4th year)
![Page 4: Targa Resources Inc Bobby Welch Pipeline Technician Sue Guidry Compliance Specialist](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062719/568131a8550346895d981790/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
QUICK VERSION
• Used ½ mile radius as our guideline• Contacted Offices of affected schools during
summer• Set up meeting in the weeks before school
starts (during teacher in-service meetings) to avoid student issues
• Had to be flexible to meet each school in their time window – breakfast, lunch, & afternoon meeting in one day
in three different towns– two shows @ two different schools at same time

Program Setup
• As teachers entered the meeting room, they were given a 5x7 card.– One side had a pre-meeting questionnaire to be
taken before the presentation– The other side of the card was to be filled after the
presentation
• In order to qualify for the “door prizes”, cards had to be turned in (100% participation).
• At the end of the meeting, Targa provided all attendees with “thank you” gifts.

Working Near A Pipeline
• Digging near a pipeline is the most common cause of pipeline accidents.
• -We want people to call us before digging so we can prevent damage to pipeline and injuries to people.
• Someone will come out and mark the pipeline with colored paint or marker flags - Free of Charge
