Metallic balloons Metallic balloons are used to decorate at parties, given as' tokens of friendships and to express best wishes. Rarely do people think of these symbols of good will as dangerous. As birthdays, birth-days, holidays and other special occasions occur throughout the year. Utah Power reminds people that metallic balloons can be hazardous and to use caution when handling them. The danger lies in escaped helium-filled balloons and their strings that end up touching a power line, transformer or substation. sub-station. Upon making contact or becoming entangled with lines, even the slightest amount of metal-including the amount in metallic balloons-can conduct electricity. That contact can damage lines, causing power credit? Self-employed? Late house payments? Financial problems? Medical bills? IRS liens? It doesn't matter! 1 If you are a homeowner with sufficient equity, eq-uity, there's an excellent chance you will qualify for a loan usually within 24 hours.

Metallic balloons that come in contact with power lines can also cause serious personal injury to the person holding it, people who attempt to rescue the balloon or onlookers. Utah Power hopes to prevent olectrical accidents by making people aware of the potential danger with balloons and urging caution at all times. -, If the balloons are going to be given, there are things both the giver and receiver can do to help minimize the potential dangers of metallic balloons: - Keep the balloons indoors, where they can't mingle with overhead power lines or drift into contact with transformers or substations. - Make sure the string for each balloon is securely attached and short enough to control its direction. - Attach a weight to the balloon's ballo-on's string so it cannot float away. - Supervise children who have received balloons as a gift. - Never intentionally release balloons. - Deflate balloon after the holiday and keep as a memento or dispose of properly. Birds and squirrels have been known to carry balloon remnants onto lines. - If you notice a metallic balloon near a power line, do not try to retrieve it. Report it to your power company. .i.4ys Introducing our generous NEW Central Bank I 9 -Month Certificate of Deposit t' (' 5' 6 Rate- j v.
