Philadelphia Gas Works is the first US gas utility to use Bell Telephone's new multinumber computerized telephone system called ACD/ESS. This system allows emergency calls to be answered on a priority basis yet enables PGW to promptly answer customer calls despite their continually rising number. OGW now has separate phone numbers for each type of call: gas leaks - emergency; appliance service; and billing and other information.
