WORKSHOP TWO
You're invited!
Traducir al españolProvide input to the Mindful Gas Decommissioning Study
Join us! Wednesday, October 2, from 6pm to 8pm.
Join us for our next virtual Mindful Gas Decommissioning workshop. This workshop brings together community members and leaders, energy experts, and other interested parties from across the state to learn about and provide feedback on a draft mapping tool that identifies case study areas for gas pipeline decommissioning in California.
Gas pipeline decommissioning means shutting down parts of the gas pipeline network in areas where energy services can be switched to electricity. The cost to upgrade aging pipelines is considerable and requires a process of "Mindful Gas Decommissioning” to investigate sites that meet both cost and technical goals, that also align with community needs.

What You Can Expect at the Upcoming Workshop
Feedback in Action: See how feedback from our last public workshop and series of community leader meetings have shaped the development of our draft mapping tool.
Case Study Discussion: Case study areas will be presented in break-out rooms. We are looking for your feedback to help ground truth the data gathered so far. Case studies can help develop the beta tool but will not be used to make decisions about where to conduct decommissioning.
Community Impacts Discussion: We will explore equity metrics that represent potential community concerns related to gas pipeline decommissioning. Your thoughts here will help influence our approach!
Demonstration: See a live demonstration of the draft mapping tool, focusing on various case study areas. We’re looking forward to your feedback on fine-tuning our tool.
