LEWISTON, Idaho — Several school districts have announced they will be cancelling Thursday classes due to a gas leak reported near Pullman and Colfax.

Here are the school districts that have reported closures so far:

Those schools won't have access to heat because of the gas leak, prompting the cancellations.

According to Avista, crews were alerted of the leak impacting the Williams Pipeline natural gas system Wednesday afternoon. That pipeline is one of several natural gas pipeline companies that Avista contracts with for wholesale transportation of natural gas.

Crews will have to disconnect gas service to impacted customers. Avista says the leak is expected to impact customers in the Albion, Pullman, Palouse and Lewsiton/Clarkston regions.
