PG&E Corporation Research Reports
On September 2, 2014, PG&E Corporation (PCG) reported that its subsidiary Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) is seeking a reasonable penalty in relation to the 2010 explosion of a natural gas transmission pipeline in San Bruno, which should consider precedent and the investments made by PG&E to promote safety since the incident took place. While the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), which is considering the penalty, has released a recommended penalty totaling approximately $2 billion, PG&E believes that the total shareholder impact could be c.$4.75 billion, including the previous $2.7 billion in estimated costs that shareholders have incurred or are forecast to incur, to improve and enhance the safety of PG&E's natural gas operations. Tony Earley, PCG Chairman, CEO and President, stated "We are accountable and fully accept that a penalty of some kind is appropriate.
