The house where I'll live for my new assignment has finally been determined...

The essential utilities, electricity and water, might be available as soon as I move in.

However, the gas system will be delayed.

I heard that I should contact the gas company to make a new contract at least five days in advance, and I need to have a gas company staff member open the main valve in my presence.

So, I predict that I won't be able to take a bath for the first week.
