Sempra Energy Reports First-Quarter 2020 Earnings Results
SAN DIEGO, May 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) today reported first-quarter 2020 earnings of $760 million, or $2.53 per diluted share, compared to first-quarter 2019 earnings of $441 million, or $1.59 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis, the company's first-quarter 2020 earnings were $932 million, or $3.08 per diluted share, compared to $534 million, or $1.92 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019. "In the midst of a global pandemic, we are reminded that our employees face health risks in their daily lives and unique challenges in performing their jobs. That is why our first priority has been, and continues to be, the safety of our employees, customers and communities," said Jeffrey W. Martin, chairman and CEO of Sempra Energy. "We remain focused on advancing our strategic priorities and committed to delivering safe and reliable energy to over 35 million consumers, including the many hospitals and primary care facilities across our communities." "Our strong financial results this quarter reflect the focused execution of our strategic plan," added Martin. "We plan to continue to strengthen our balance sheet and maintain solid liquidity across our companies, while pursuing our disciplined growth plan." The reported financial results reflect certain significant items, as described on an after-tax basis in the following table of GAAP earnings reconciled to adjusted earnings for the first quarter of 2020 and 2019. Three months ended March 31, (Dollars, except EPS, and shares, in millions) 2020 2019 (Unaudited) GAAP Earnings $ 760 $ 441 Impacts Associated with Aliso Canyon Litigation 72 - Losses from Investment in RBS Sempra Commodities LLP 100 - Tax Impacts from Expected Sale of South American Businesses - 93 Adjusted Earnings (1) $ 932 $ 534 GAAP Diluted Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding 314 277 GAAP Earnings Per Diluted Common Share (2) $ 2.53 $ 1.59 Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding (1),(3) 314 291 Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Common Share (1),(2),(3) $ 3.08 $ 1.92 1) Represents a non-GAAP financial measure. See Table A for information regarding non-GAAP financial measures. 2) To calculate Q1-2020 GAAP earnings per common share (EPS) and Adjusted EPS, preferred stock dividends of $36 million are added back to GAAP Earnings and Adjusted Earnings because of the dilutive effect of the company's Series A and Series B mandatory convertible preferred stock in the quarter. 3) To calculate Q1-2019 Adjusted EPS, preferred stock dividends of $26 million are added back to Adjusted Earnings and approximately14 million shares are included in Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding because of the dilutive effect of thecompany's Series A mandatory convertible preferred stock in the quarter. Responding to COVID-19As part of its commitment to deliver energy with purpose, Sempra Energy is dedicated to the safety and well-being of its employees, customers, partners and communities. The company has activated an enterprise-wide Task Force designed to respond to the impacts of the global pandemic and identify and mitigate risks across the Sempra Energy family of companies. Sempra Energy's operating companies are providing critical energy services to hospitals, healthcare facilities, first responders and others on the frontline of the crisis. The Sempra Energy family of companies has donated approximately $8 million to COVID-19 relief efforts in areas where they operate, including California, Texas, Louisiana, Mexico and South America. This includes a $1.75 million Nonprofit Hardship Fund created by the Sempra Energy Foundation to help small to medium-sized nonprofits serve critical needs related to COVID-19. Strengthening Balance Sheet and Liquidity Position with Peru SaleLast month, Sempra Energy announced the completion of the sale of its Peruvian businesses, including its 83.6% interest in Luz del Sur S.A.A., to an affiliate of China Yangtze Power International (Hongkong) Co., Limited, generating approximately $3.6 billion in total cash proceeds, subject to post-closing adjustments. Sempra Energy continues to advance the sale of its Chilean assets, including its 100% interest in Chilquinta Energía S.A., to China State Grid International Development Limited for $2.23 billion in total cash proceeds, subject to adjustments and satisfaction of closing conditions. The completion of these transactions will conclude Sempra Energy's planned sale of its South American businesses. Proceeds from the sales will be used to further strengthen the company's balance sheet and help fund the company's record capital plan. Providing Essential Services at U.S. Utility Infrastructure BusinessesSempra Energy's U.S. utility infrastructure businesses continue to deliver safe and reliable service to their customers. In March 2020, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved the cost of capital settlement terms that SDG&E and all settling parties reached in October 2019. The settlement agreement provides for a return on equity (ROE) of 10.6%, consisting of a base ROE of 10.1% plus an additional 50 basis points for participation in the California Independent System Operator service area. Additionally, SDG&E and SoCalGas filed a joint petition for modification in April 2020 to revise their 2019 General Rate Case (GRC) to add two additional attrition years, resulting in a transitional five-year GRC period from 2019 to 2023. Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (Oncor) continues to execute on its five-year capital plan of approximately $11.9 billion. Approximately 90% of projects in Oncor's transmission budget through 2021 do not need further approvals before commencing construction. These projects are designed to support growth, as well as strengthen and expand the grid in Oncor's service territory. Advancing Energy Infrastructure Projects Sempra Energy recently announced that Cameron LNG has reached the final commissioning stage for Phase 1 of the liquefaction-export project in Hackberry, Louisiana, as the third of three liquefaction trains for Phase 1 has achieved mechanical completion, introduced feed gas and initiated the start-up process. This achievement keeps the project on track to produce liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the third and final train in the second quarter of 2020 and begin commercial operations in the third quarter of 2020. Cameron LNG achieved commercial operations of Train 1 and Train 2 under its tolling agreements in August 2019 and February 2020, respectively. Sempra Energy's share of full-year run-rate earnings from the Phase 1 project is anticipated to be between $400 million and $450 million annually starting in 2021 when all three trains are in commercial operations under Cameron LNG's tolling agreements. Sempra Energy indirectly owns 50.2% of Cameron LNG. Cameron LNG is jointly owned by affiliates of Sempra LNG, TOTAL S.A., Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and Japan LNG Investment, LLC, a company jointly owned by Mitsubishi Corporation and Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha. In March, Port Arthur LNG, LLC and Bechtel Oil, Gas, and Chemicals, Inc. signed a fixed-price EPC contract for the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction project under development in Jefferson County, Texas. Given current market dynamics, a final investment decision is now expected for the project in 2021. Infraestructura Energética Nova, S.A.B. de C.V. (IEnova) continues to develop infrastructure projects that provide consumers in Mexico access to cleaner, more reliable energy. IEnova is actively monitoring the current situation but as a result of the current pandemic, it is reasonable to expect that some of the construction capital will be deferred from 2020 to 2021. Earnings GuidanceSempra Energy's updated full-year 2020 GAAP EPS guidance range is $11.88 to $13.02. The updated range reflects a revision to the estimated gain on the sale of the company's South American businesses and litigation-related charges at SoCalGas and the company's prior investment in RBS Sempra Commodities LLP. Today, the company is reaffirming its full-year 2020 adjusted EPS guidance range of $6.70 to $7.50, and is reaffirming its full-year 2021 EPS guidance range of $7.50 to $8.10. Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresNon-GAAP financial measures include Sempra Energy's adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS for the first quarters of 2020 and 2019, adjusted diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2019, and full-year 2020 adjusted EPS guidance. See Table A for additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures.

Because of the significance and/or nature of the excluded items, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra Energy's business operations to prior and future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles for historical periods these non-GAAP financial measures to Sempra Energy GAAP Earnings, Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding – GAAP and GAAP EPS, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

We did not record an income tax benefit for the equity losses from our investment in RBS Sempra Commodities LLP because, even though a portion of the liabilities may be deductible under United Kingdom tax law, it is not probable that the deduction will reduce United Kingdom taxes. (2) In the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to the dilutive effect of the mandatory convertible preferred stock, the numerator used to calculate GAAP EPS and Adjusted EPS includes an add-back of $36 million of mandatory convertible preferred stock dividends declared in that quarter. (3) In the three months ended March 31, 2019, the assumed conversion of the series A preferred stock and the series B preferred stock are antidilutive for GAAP Earnings, however, the series A preferred stock is dilutive for the higher Adjusted Earnings. As such, the series A preferred stock dividends of $26 million have been added back to the numerator and the dilutive effect of the series A preferred stock shares of 13,951 has been added to the denominator when calculating Adjusted EPS.

SoCalGas Partners with The Laundry Truck LA and Landi Renzo USA to Bring Additional Mobile Laundry Services to Thousands of Homeless Throughout Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES, April 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced a $25,000 donation to The Laundry Truck LA (TLTLA) to provide free laundry services and necessities to the homeless population in Los Angeles, including at the city's 42 coronavirus relief centers. The grant will help fund the purchase and furnishing of a second trailer to support the community's rising demands for laundry services. Landi Renzo USA , a global leader in alternative fuel technology, will also donate a truck equipped with the company's Eco Ready™ compressed natural gas (CNG) system to support TLTLA's efforts. The converted CNG Ford F-250 pickup truck will help TLTLA expand their reach and lower the organization's current transportation costs by 30 percent. With the donations from SoCalGas and Landi Renzo, TLTLA is expecting to complete 15,600 loads of laundry in 2020. "In this pandemic, it is more critical than ever that our neighbors who are experiencing homelessness gain access to basic needs, such as laundry services," said Los Angeles County Supervisor Hilda L. Solis. "Without a vaccine, we all must maintain good hygiene and wash our clothes frequently. It is our best line of defense against this highly contagious virus. Our community partners are providing loads of help and hope by stepping up to ensure individuals who lack stable housing will get their clothes cleaned through the free services offered by The Laundry Truck LA." "As an early supporter and funder of The LA Laundry Truck to provide critical hygiene services to unhoused Angelenos in my district, I applaud SoCalGas for their community support by investing in the expansion of The LA Laundry Truck with $25,000 funding towards a new trailer and a new CNG truck to haul the trailer," said Gil Cedillo, councilmember of Los Angeles Council District 1. "Together, we are united to provide mobile laundry service that meets the public health and personal welfare of unhoused Angelenos." "This is an unprecedented time, and our homeless neighbors in Los Angeles County need our support more than ever," said Trisha Muse, director of community relations at SoCalGas. "Our partnership with Landi Renzo and The Laundry Truck LA not only allows us to serve our community but also the environment." "This partnership is an amazing opportunity for us to be able to help and give back to our local community. We are pleased to partner with SoCalGas and The Laundry Truck to contribute in this unparalleled time of need," said Andrea Landi, president of Landi Renzo USA. "Our Ford F-250 truck with the Landi Renzo compressed natural gas system will help The Laundry Truck with their mobile services while lowering emissions, reducing their environmental impact, and decreasing their fuel costs." The Laundry Truck LA is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing free mobile laundry services for those in need throughout Los Angeles and is one of the first mobile laundry services in the country to serve the homeless population. Prior to this donation, TLTLA served the community through a trailer furnished with five sets of washers and dryers, a folding station, and a water heater. Through the help of donations and partnerships, TLTLA is now expanding their operations to further assist the additional six thousand beds the City of Los Angeles have committed to for the COVID-19 pandemic. "We believe that essential personal care services, like clean laundry, can truly impact lives -- especially at a time like this," said Jodie Dolan, founder and owner of The Laundry Truck LA. "This generous donation from SoCalGas and Landi Renzo will allow us to provide these critical services to some of the most vulnerable Angelenos."

SoCalGas Donates $10,000 to Non-Profit Hope through Housing Foundation; Partners with Local Restaurant to Feed Yucca Valley Seniors
LOS ANGELES, April 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced it has donated $10,000 to local non-profit, Hope Through Housing Foundation. The funds will be used to provide weekly meals to low-income seniors who reside in the Dumosa Senior Village affordable housing community in Yucca Valley, and to provide additional assistance to vulnerable residents during the COVID-19 crisis. SoCalGas and Hope Through Housing have partnered with local Yucca Valley restaurant John's Place to deliver individually packaged lunches once a week to each of the 85 seniors living at the property for the next month. In addition, Hope Through Housing will be providing regular well-being calls, individual resource assistance, and virtual financial counseling to residents in need. "SoCalGas is thrilled to be able to partner with the Hope Through Housing Foundation and John's Place and provide meals to seniors in need," said Trisha Muse, director of community relations at SoCalGas. "SoCalGas believes it is important to support the communities we serve, not just by providing affordable and reliable natural gas service but also through these small acts of kindness and lending a helping hand to our friends and neighbors." "During this challenging time, this grant will help us feed and provide individual assistance to vulnerable seniors, many of whom are homebound with limited support – with a double impact by supporting a local, family-owned business," said Gregory Bradbard, President of Hope Through Housing. "Right now, it is crucial for communities to come together and help one another where needed, said John Tsiolis, owner of John's Place. "We are grateful SoCalGas and Hope Through Housing Foundation reached out to us to provide these meals and not only gave business to a small restaurant like ours during these trying and unprecedented times, but also gave us the opportunity to make a big impact in our community." In 1998, the Hope through Housing Foundation was established to empower residents of National Community Renaissance (National CORE) properties, one of the largest nonprofit affordable housing developers in the country. Wanting to do more to help the children, families and seniors who lived in its communities, the Hope through Housing Foundation was created to deliver a broad range of charitable and educational programs for children, young adults, low-income and underprivileged families and seniors and the general public. Last year, SoCalGas donated more than $7.6 million to community organizations, local non-profits and other groups. SoCalGas employees contributed more than $750,000 dollars through payroll deductions and performed over 24,000 logged volunteer hours for various community groups throughout its service territory.

SoCalGas COVID-19 Response Last month, SoCalGas announced a $1 million donation to nonprofit organizations throughout its service area to support the region's workforce, feed the hungry, and provide bill assistance to customers most affected by the coronavirus. Together, the Sempra Energy family of companies – including SoCalGas' sister California utility San Diego Gas and Electric and the Sempra Energy Foundation – are stepping up with more than $7 million to those in need during this crisis. SoCalGas has also suspended service disconnections until further notice. This means no residential or small business customer will have their natural gas turned off due to non-payment. SoCalGas has also temporarily waived late fees for small business customers. Late fees are never charged for residential customers. Natural gas continues to flow and is being delivered to SoCalGas' 22 million customers across southern and central California, just as it does on a "typical" day. There is no shortage of supply of natural gas for homes or businesses or to power plants that generate electricity. Under the Governor's recent Executive Order, members of the critical infrastructure sector, including natural gas providers, are considered necessary to the security, economic security, public health and safety of California. SoCalGas continues to perform work needed to safely and reliably maintain its natural gas infrastructure and to provide communities with safe and reliable energy services. SoCalGas also continues to make essential and emergency service appointments, including reports of suspected natural gas leaks, carbon monoxide checks, gas meter turn-ons, natural gas outage and pilot re-lights while protecting the safety of our workforce, customers and the communities we serve .

Cameron LNG Begins Final Commissioning Stage Of Train 3
SAN DIEGO, April 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra LNG, a subsidiary of Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE), today announced that Cameron LNG has entered the final commissioning stage for the Phase 1, three-train liquefaction-export project in Hackberry, La., as it began introducing pipeline feed gas flow to the third and last liquefaction train. "Cameron LNG is a huge success story and a great tribute to what this organization and its people are capable of," said Lisa Glatch, chief operating officer of Sempra LNG and board chair for Cameron LNG. "We are proud of Sempra LNG's development of this project as well as Cameron LNG's employees and contractors who have built and are operating this facility. With a commitment to health and safety first, the commissioning and startup of Train 3 will help meet demand from global markets for cleaner and more secure energy sources." Approximately 88 million hours have been worked without a lost-time incident and 58 liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargoes have been shipped from the facility. Following authorization received from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission allowing the introduction of pipeline feed gas, Cameron LNG began ramping up the feed gas deliveries to the third train as it completes the commissioning process. Commercial operation of Train 3 remains on track to begin in the third quarter of 2020. Phase 1 of the Cameron LNG export project includes three liquefaction trains that will enable the export of approximately 12 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) of LNG or approximately 1.7 billion cubic feet per day. Cameron LNG is jointly owned by affiliates of Sempra LNG, Total S.A., Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and Japan LNG Investment, LLC, a company jointly owned by Mitsubishi Corporation and Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK). Sempra Energy indirectly owns 50.2% of Cameron LNG. Sempra Energy's share of full-year run-rate earnings from the Phase 1 project is anticipated to be between $400 million and $450 million annually starting in 2021 when all three trains are in commercial operations under Cameron LNG's tolling agreements. Sempra LNG is also developing four other LNG export projects in North America, including Cameron LNG Phase 2, Port Arthur LNG in Texas, and Energía Costa Azul LNG Phase 1 and Phase 2 in Mexico, with the goal of developing infrastructure capable of producing 45 Mtpa of LNG to export to world markets, which would make Sempra Energy one of North America's largest developers of LNG-export facilities.

SoCalGas Takes Next Step Toward Offering Renewable Natural Gas
LOS ANGELES –April 17, 2020-- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced it and other important stakeholders have agreed on details of a proposed plan to offer renewable natural gas to customers, and have filed that agreement with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). Stakeholders include consumer advocate groups (including the state’s consumer advocate), a national environmental organization, and various industry groups. Renewable natural gas can be used just like traditional natural gas to cook, heat homes and run businesses, and fuel trucks and buses. The fuel can be made when methane, a greenhouse gas that occurs naturally when organic waste breaks down, is captured rather than being released into the air. The proposed program would allow millions of Californians the option to purchase a portion of their natural gas from renewable sources, just as many today can opt to purchase renewable electricity. The program is expected to create increased demand for renewable natural gas, which can help increase supply and lower its cost over time, similar to what has happened with renewable electricity created from wind and solar power. “Replacing traditional natural gas with the renewable kind is a great way to reduce climate change emissions,” said Andy Carrasco, SoCalGas chief environmental officer. “People like using natural gas for cooking, hot water and home heating, so using renewable gas allows them to keep their preferred energy source while helping achieve climate goals.” With the agreement in place, the CPUC can begin its review and evaluation process; a decision could come in the fall of this year. The production and use of renewable natural gas in California has steadily increased since the enactment of a 2016 law requiring the reduction of methane emissions from dairy farms and diversion of food and green waste from landfills. Over 30 dairy renewable natural gas projects are now in operation in the state, and about 50 more are in various stages of development. Renewable natural gas from a San Joaquin Valley dairy digester facility began flowing into SoCalGas' pipelines over a year ago. Renewable natural gas is also being made in California from household food waste, grass clippings and the like, keeping such waste out of landfills and putting it to use. In 2018, SoCalGas began putting the renewable gas in its pipelines from a waste hauling company's anaerobic digestion facility in Perris, California. In 20 years, enough renewable natural gas will be available to replace about 90 percent of the nation's current residential natural gas consumption, a recent study by ICF estimates. While thus far most renewable natural gas produced in California has been used for heavy-duty trucking, Renewable natural gas can also be used in homes, which contribute about six percent of California’s greenhouse gas emissions. A 2018 study showed that replacing less than 20 percent of SoCalGas’ traditional natural gas supply with renewable natural gas by 2030 can achieve the same greenhouse gas reductions as converting all homes and commercial buildings to electric-only energy. That same study also found that using a mix of in- and out-of-state renewable gas resources would be 2 to 3 times more cost effective in reducing greenhouse gases than converting homes to all-electric. Renewable Natural Gas Program Details If approved, the renewable natural gas program will be available to residential and small commercial and industrial customers. Residential customers will be able to select a fixed dollar amount per month for the purchase of renewable natural gas. Commercial customers will be able to select a fixed dollar amount per month or select a percentage of their consumption for the purchase of renewable natural gas, up to 100%. Each month, participating customers would see a line item on their bill that includes the amount of renewable gas they received, along with a very small program fee. To allow the utilities to enter into the longer-term contracts necessary to purchase renewable natural gas, residential customers will have to commit to one year. After one year, they would have the option to change their dollar amount or could participate on a month-to-month basis. As customers opt to purchase renewable natural gas, SoCalGas will buy the renewable gas from producers and reduce the amount of fossil gas that is brought into their pipeline systems. As renewable natural gas enters the SoCalGas pipeline system, its molecules blend together with traditional natural gas just like solar and wind electrons on the electric grid. Every additional therm of this renewable fuel that customers purchase means one less therm of traditional natural gas is used. # # # About SoCalGas Headquartered in Los Angeles, SoCalGas® is the largest gas distribution utility in the United States. SoCalGas delivers affordable, reliable, clean and increasingly renewable gas service to 21.8 million customers across 24,000 square miles of Central and Southern California, where more than 90 percent of residents use natural gas for heating, hot water, cooking, drying clothes or other uses. Gas delivered through the company's pipelines also plays a key role in providing electricity to Californians— about 45 percent of electric power generated in the state comes from gas-fired power plants. SoCalGas' vision is to be the cleanest gas utility in North America, delivering affordable and increasingly renewable energy to its customers. In support of that vision, SoCalGas is committed to replacing 20 percent of its traditional natural gas supply with renewable natural gas (RNG) by 2030.

SoCalGas Announces Approval of 10-Year Mobile Home Park Safety Upgrade Program
LOS ANGELES, April 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced it has received state approval to provide safety and service upgrades to thousands of additional mobile home parks through a ten-year Mobilehome Park Utility Conversion Program. Since its inception in 2014, the program has upgraded infrastructure and enhanced safety at more than 16,000 mobile homes in more than 244 mobile home communities throughout SoCalGas' territory. Now, due to the program's success, the CPUC voted to establish it as a ten-year, ongoing program, authorizing SoCalGas to upgrade up to half of the approximately 132,000 mobile homes in its service territory to direct utility service through 2030. The MHP Utility Conversion Program is completely voluntary. Participating mobile home communities receive a new, professionally installed gas system that provides enhanced home safety and energy reliability for residents. As direct SoCalGas customers, residents can also sign up for a variety of SoCalGas' energy savings and assistance programs that can help them save money. "This program will enhance safety for thousands of families across our service territory." said Rodger Schwecke, SoCalGas' senior vice president of gas operations and construction. "With direct utility service, families will also have access to a host of energy savings and assistance programs that will help mobile home park residents save money and live more comfortably." "As the Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Manufactured Home Communities, I applaud the California Public Utilities Commission's ten-year continuation of the Mobile Home Park Utility Conversion Program," said Senator Connie M. Leyva (D- Chino). "This program continues to help residents of mobile home park communities across California, and I appreciate SoCalGas' participation in this program." "The process from start to finish was incredibly smooth with minimal issues," said, Jamie Taylor manager of a Gardena, California mobile home park called Los Flamingos Lodge, which had direct utility service installed last year. "The entire SoCalGas team was efficient and worked seamlessly with our residents to get the work completed in a timely manner. Our mobile park's direct SoCalGas service will help us maintain state compliance guidelines and will allow park management to focus on other areas that can help improve our community for our residents." Enrique Lopez, a resident at Peter Pan Mobile Village in Compton, California, received direct utility service last year. "SoCalGas did a great job," he said. "Everything is going well, and I am very happy with my gas service." Mobile home park residents with direct natural gas service will have advanced meters, which allow customers to have access to their hourly natural gas usage on a next-day basis and enable them to better manage their gas usage and save money. New SoCalGas customers will now also be able to set up their own "My Account" to view and pay their bill online, schedule service and/or sign up for paperless billing. Income-qualified customers can also benefit from energy savings and assistance programs that can help them save money. More information about these programs is available at socalgas.com (search "Assistance") or by calling 1-800-252-0259 (available in English and Spanish). Owners of participating mobile home communities also see benefits. Owners will no longer have to maintain or be liable for privately-owned gas systems and instead can contact SoCalGas directly for service needs. Direct service also saves owners time, since they no longer have to read meters, bill residents or respond to service questions. The program covers costs for installing new utility service at each mobile home community including, individual resident meters. Nearly 80 percent of all mobile home communities in SoCalGas' territory applied to participate in the initial pilot program.
