The San Bruno transmission pipeline explosion of last September that caused a massive fire, was an explosion that PG&E apparently had many chances to avoid. PG&E has had other instances of failed pipelines, followed by recommended improvements to help to prevent future explosions from occurring, but the precautions that were suggested were not taken according to National Transportation and Safety Board investigators. PG&E has promised that this kind of preventable disaster will not occur again.
