• NATURAL GAS SAFETY: More safety oversight is coming for utilities and storage operators, and companies that get organized now may face fewer mandates later.
• SDG &E ERRA COMPLIANCE: SDG&E is trying to recover leftover costs from a renewable energy program that did not work out as planned. There is a dispute on who should pay those costs: all customers, former participants in the program, shareholders, or someone else.
