UPDATED: Bank back to work after call for natural gas smell
No natural gas leaks were detected after Janesville firefighters responded to a report of a possible natural gas smell inside Chase bank, 100 W. Milwaukee St., this morning, Capt. Jim Dennis said.
The call came in at 10:32 a.m. after people inside the bank smelled natural gas. Evacuation was in progress when responders arrived.
The smell turned out to be a maintenance issue, Dennis said.
"We checked it and it didn't come up with any natural gas--nothing registered on our meters as dangerours, and the same with Alliant (Energy)," he said.

Well, something else that can cause a similar smell is a blocked sewer vent.
