PG&E and Utilities Agency Spar Over San Bruno Papers

摘要

While Pacific Gas and Electric prepares to explain to the California Public Utilities Commission at a March 24 hearing why it didn't supply all its records for pressure tests of natural gas pipelines in high-consequence areas (HCA) as requested, other federal entities and elected representatives are getting more involved in the gas pressure spike controversy.rnPG&E failed to satisfy CPUC's terms under a March 15 deadline to provide data on its pipeline system. The utility says it supplied records for pressure tests or historical operating pressure for more than 90% of its 1,805 miles of natural gas transmission pipelines in HCAs. The CPUC shot back that it's the "historical operating pressure" records that violate its demand.
