"Railroad Commission Urges
Winter Gas Safety Check"
Will this be a particularly hard winter? No one knows for sure,
but the old scout motto about "being prepared" certainly can't
hurt. The Texas Railroad Commission, the state's chief energy
agency, says the two best ways for homeowners with propane
gas heating systems to be prepared are: scheduling a gas check
of all the gas system, including appliances and making sure the
propane tank stays full all winter long.
Propane gas provides home heating, water heating and cooking
for missions of Texans in every part of the state. Your local
propane gas supplier will send a specially trained service
technician to check the entire propane gas system for leaks, and
will ensure that all local regulations and industry standards are
met. He or she will also check the tank, piping, regulator,
gauges, connectors, valves, vents, thermostats, pilots, burners
and appliance controls to make sure they are in good working
condition.
The Railroad Commission also encourages homeowners who
fuel furnaces and appliances with propane to have their local
dealer put their delivery account on "automatic." That way a
homeowner never has to worry about having an adequate supply
of propane no matter how cold the weather or treacherous the
road conditions. It is certainly not comfortable of safe to be left
"out in the cold" without enough propane to heat the house, or run
appliances like stoves or clothes dryers.
Homeowners should check all gas appliance intakes and
exhaust vents for the clothes dryer, furnance and water heater to
make sure they are kept clear of debris, snow or ice. And the
home's propane tank should have a protective cap or "dome" to
cover the regulator, relief valves and fill valves.
For more information on how safely to stay warm with propane
this winter, look under "gas/propane" in the Yellow Pages for your
nearest propane dealer, or call the Railroad Commission's
Alternative Fuels Division at 1-800-64-CLEAR.

BY ATTORNEY GENERAL DAN MORALES
GIVE YOURSELF
A GIFT THAT
MATTERS
I HE HOLIDAY SEASON is
a whirlwind of activity for
most of us. Parties, decora-
tions, and presents all add up to a
festive, favorite time of year. But
underneath all the fun, there is an
enduring deeper meaning to the
season.
The season makes us think of
home and family. Images of warmth
and togetherness touch a chord in
all of us — but especially in chil-
dren. All children should glow with
joy as the holidays approach.
Here at the Office of the Attor-
ney General, it is our business to
know that many thousands of non-
custodial parents in Texas willingly
and lovingly provide for their chil-
dren. But we are saddened, espe-
cially at this happy time of year, by
the knowledge that for other chil-
dren, something is missing. If you
are a parent who does not live with
your child, make sure your child is
not missing a holiday visit or mes-
sage from you.
Will your child have a Christ-
mas?
It is extremely difficult for a
single parent to make ends meet
without assistance. For many single-
parent families, child support pay-
ments can be the difference between
survival and desperation.
Child support can certainly be
the difference between a lean holi-
day and cheerful one. Whatever
your means, if you are a non-custo-
dial parent, I hope you are sharing
with your children during this fam-
ily season.
If you owe past-due child sup-
port, make an early New Year’s
resolution to set things right. The
rewards for you will be as great as
any gift you can give or receive.
You will have the self-respect that
comes from knowing that you have
taken care of your children.

Your children want you
As the child support agency for
the State of Texas, we are
concerned about financial support
for Texas children. But make no
mistake: your children want and
need more than money from you.
They need your love, support, and
guidance. They need to know that,
whatever your reason for not being
with them, you still love them.
Texas law absolutely requires
you to take responsibility for the
support of your children. Our job is
to enforce the law. But the issues go
far beyond money and the law.
Government cannot replace the love
of a parent. Yet this is something
you can so easily give.
Does your child have a legal
father?
If you are a father whose child
was bom out of wedlock, Texas law
says your child does not have a legal
father unless you have established
paternity. Your child may not in-
herit and may not be entitled to cer-
tain benefits that you could provide.
You have no legal right to visit your
child or to take part in the decisions
that will shape your child’s future.
If you have not established pa-
ternity, you can give your child the
best Christmas present he or she
will ever get. You can give your
child something that every child
wants and needs more than just
about anything in the world: you
can give your child a father.
For more information
If you are behind in your court-
ordered child support payments,
contact our office and set up a pay-
ment plan today. We will work with
you. We can also help if you are a
father who wants to establish pater-
nity for your child. Check your
telephone book for the local child
support office nearest you or call 1-
800-252-8014. You can also find
information and contacts on our
Office of the Attorney General web
site at http://www.oag.state.tx.us.
