SANTAQUIN -- Regular maintenance to a Questar gas line is causing some consternation in Santaquin.

Residents are calling 911 Tuesday concerned that they can smell natural gas.

Questar is periodically releasing gas as part of the maintenance and while the gas quickly dissipates into the air, the stench lingers for a considerably longer time.

Police and the fire department are aware of the maintenance and say there is no reason to be alarmed.

It'll be a few hours before the smell goes away.
