Another PG&E Pipeline Explosion: What Was Learned From 2010 Explosion?

"A Friday afternoon pipeline explosion at the Fresno County Sheriff gun range left 11 people injured and caused a massive traffic jam on the nearby state Highway 99, according to the Associated Press.

The pipeline is owned by Pacific Gas & Electric Co (PG&E) and may prompt new questions about California natural gas pipeline safety.

Friday's explosion occurred around 2:30 p.m. local time while a worker was using a front-loader to build up a dirt bern behind the shooting targets. A county worker operating the front-loader and 10 county inmates, who were nearby doing clean-up work, were taken to area hospitals for treatment of burn-related injuries."
