Nearly 8 years after the largest natural gas leak in U.S. history in 2015, state officials want to expand the Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Storage Facility, citing rising gas costs last winter. Porter Ranch residents are not fans of the idea.
Tuseday is the last day for public input to the CPUC. The vote is Aug. 31st, and the expectation is that the comission is leaning toward voting for the expansion. That's why residents are once again organizing, with Tuesday's being the first of several planned rallies.
In a statement to FOX 11, Dan Guthrie with SoCalGas said the company "supports the ongoing California Public Utilities Commission's review of the conditions that drove up natural gas commodity prices in the Western United States this past winter. The CPUC's proposal to increase local natural gas storage levels ahead of winter is a prudent step that would help advance our shared goal of maintaining energy reliability at just and reasonable rates.
