However, PG&E respectfully submits that SED has not met its burden of demonstrating that PG&E fails to safely operate its gas distribution system overall due to recordkeeping issues, or that PG&E’s industry-leading practices and performance fail to satisfy an appropriate standard of care and thus violate applicable laws or regulations.
