  8. Initial Impressions • Good response overall • Considering first time ever • SEMPRA’s summary table very good • Most filers followed the template • Thank you! • Emission reduction estimates very useful • Good R&D/Pilot Descriptions

  9. Reduction Estimates, MSCF

  10. Reductions by BP

  11. Reductions by BP

  12. Some Innovations • Capture blowdowns with CNG Truck • Focus on Super-Emitter Leaks • Risk-Based annual leak survey • In lieu of 3-year survey everywhere

  13. Concerns • Reduction and cost estimates missing for some plans • Perhaps review of other plans may help fill in these gaps

  14. Lessons Learned • Some BP’s just don’t apply for the smaller utilities – no high pressure, etc. • Template format becomes redundant when same answers apply for many BP’s • Appendices/Attachments should have a standard location across all plans
