We are committed to the communities we serve and work every day to enhance gas pipeline safety. See all of the ways PG&E safely and reliably delivers natural gas to homes and businesses across Northern and Central California.

Your gas meter requires periodic and routine safety inspections, which we provide at no additional cost to you. If we have access issues when these safety inspections or any necessary work to maintain the safety of your gas meter are required, we may contact you to request access.

An excess flow valve (EFV) automatically closes and significantly restricts unplanned or excessive natural gas flows if a pipeline is severed by digging. Download EFV information (PDF, 118 KB), and then complete your application in "Your Projects."
