"content": "\u003cp>The recent \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_T%C5%8Dhoku_earthquake_and_tsunami\">Tōhoku quake that struck Japan\u003c/a> on March 11th, is a devastating reminder of the sheer power and velocity of a magnitude 9 earthquake. Such reminders are very rare; in the 20th-century only three earthquakes reached or exceeded magnitude 9.0 worldwide. In the US, there are only two locations where a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megathrust_earthquake\">megathrust earthquake \u003c/a>is possible—\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleutian_Trench\">the Alaska-Aleutian subduction zone \u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pnsn.org/HAZARDS/CASCADIA/cascadia_zone.html\">Cascadia Subduction Zone\u003c/a>—the region west of the Cascade Range from southern British Columbia to northern California. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With recent lessons from Japan in mind, I wanted to look at what might happen if an earthquake struck the Cascadia Zone. However, an in-depth look at megathrust quakes has a unique set of challenges because one can’t snap their fingers and inspire nature to shake the ground. As a television journalist I have to be slightly obsessive about capturing enough footage to cover a story because a bunch of talking heads will put the audience to sleep. It’s easy to end up with a bunch of lackluster clips from expert interviewees strung together in a timeline. Fortunately, my early research revealed that the last \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1700_Cascadia_earthquake\">megathrust earthquake in 1700\u003c/a> left behind some very interesting visuals. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until recently, Cascadia did not have any written records of local earthquakes larger than magnitude 7.5, nor of transpacific tsunamis. However, in the early 1980’s earth scientists began looking a little closer. Hints from oral histories of native peoples were analyzed in detail, and geologists began uncovering unusual and exciting physical clues, both suggesting that very large earthquakes had struck the Pacific Northwest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of the detectives who pinpointed the timing of the 1700 quake were geologist, Brian Atwater, and tree ring scientist, Dave Yamaguchi. Our camera crew joined this duo for a day in the field on a sunny June morning. Videographer, Tim Griffis, and I followed Atwater a few hundred feet up a stream near Discovery Bay on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. Atwater scraped away at the riverbank to reveal a light grey layer of sand filled with microscopic siliceous shells of marine diatoms. According to Atwater, the simplest explanation for this unique sand layer is a tsunami from an earthquake in which a tectonic plate, in a seismic shift, abruptly displaced the sea while lowering the adjoining coast. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When a megathrust earthquake strikes, the land can drop by five feet or more. Imagine a tsunami wave powerfully driving towards a shoreline. Sand from the sea is swept up into the current and carried far inland and then deposited, coating the land with a fresh layer of sand. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once Atwater concluded that the sand layers likely revealed evidence of past tsunamis, he recruited tree ring scientist, Dave Yamaguchi to help him pinpoint when the last giant quake struck. Yamaguchi suggested they look to trees that were drowned by incoming waters from the past giant tsunami. He pointed to ghost forests—groves of weather-beaten tree trunks in tidal marshes and meadows in southern Washington. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When incoming waters from a tsunami rush inland the bases of trees are submerged underwater and the trees are killed. Thousands of rotting stumps can be seen along the banks of tidal streams up and down the west coast. By dating the final ring on one of these trees Yamaguchi determined the past giant quake happened in 1700. According to Yamaguchi, “It’s important for us to know how big the earthquakes in the past have been in this region because the past tells us what can happen in the future.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Knowing the Cascadia fault is susceptible to giant quakes allows engineers to plan ahead and construct structures to withstand that kind of force. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although footage from the Tōhoku quake was the primary footage used to illustrate our story about megathrust quakes, my favorite visuals revealed the signs of an earthquake that hit over three hundred years ago. Not only did we witness unique science in action, we shared in the joy of two scientists who clearly love connecting the dots between geologic evidence and history. Plus, it was obvious they enjoyed striding through tidal muck in hip waders giddily digging away the shoreline to reveal an unusual and important discovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Additional Links\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pnsn.org/\">Pacific Northwest Seismic Network Homepage\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pnsn.org/INFO_GENERAL/platecontours.html\">PNSN Deep Quakes in Washington and Oregon\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/pacnw/hazards.php\">USGS Pacific Northwest Hazards and Preparedness\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://geomaps.wr.usgs.gov/sfgeo/liquefaction/aboutliq.html\">USGS Liquefaction information in coordination with the California Geological Survey\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://nctr.pmel.noaa.gov/animate.html\">NOAA Center for Tsunami Research Animations\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.burkemuseum.org/static/geo_history_wa/index.htm\">The Burke Museum online exhibit on the geological evolution of Washington\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

In the US, there are only two locations where a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megathrust_earthquake\">megathrust earthquake \u003c/a>is possible—\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleutian_Trench\">the Alaska-Aleutian subduction zone \u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pnsn.org/HAZARDS/CASCADIA/cascadia_zone.html\">Cascadia Subduction Zone\u003c/a>—the region west of the Cascade Range from southern British Columbia to northern California. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With recent lessons from Japan in mind, I wanted to look at what might happen if an earthquake struck the Cascadia Zone. However, an in-depth look at megathrust quakes has a unique set of challenges because one can’t snap their fingers and inspire nature to shake the ground. As a television journalist I have to be slightly obsessive about capturing enough footage to cover a story because a bunch of talking heads will put the audience to sleep. It’s easy to end up with a bunch of lackluster clips from expert interviewees strung together in a timeline. Fortunately, my early research revealed that the last \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1700_Cascadia_earthquake\">megathrust earthquake in 1700\u003c/a> left behind some very interesting visuals. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until recently, Cascadia did not have any written records of local earthquakes larger than magnitude 7.5, nor of transpacific tsunamis. However, in the early 1980’s earth scientists began looking a little closer. Hints from oral histories of native peoples were analyzed in detail, and geologists began uncovering unusual and exciting physical clues, both suggesting that very large earthquakes had struck the Pacific Northwest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of the detectives who pinpointed the timing of the 1700 quake were geologist, Brian Atwater, and tree ring scientist, Dave Yamaguchi. Our camera crew joined this duo for a day in the field on a sunny June morning. Videographer, Tim Griffis, and I followed Atwater a few hundred feet up a stream near Discovery Bay on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. Atwater scraped away at the riverbank to reveal a light grey layer of sand filled with microscopic siliceous shells of marine diatoms. According to Atwater, the simplest explanation for this unique sand layer is a tsunami from an earthquake in which a tectonic plate, in a seismic shift, abruptly displaced the sea while lowering the adjoining coast. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When a megathrust earthquake strikes, the land can drop by five feet or more. Imagine a tsunami wave powerfully driving towards a shoreline. Sand from the sea is swept up into the current and carried far inland and then deposited, coating the land with a fresh layer of sand. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Yamaguchi suggested they look to trees that were drowned by incoming waters from the past giant tsunami. He pointed to ghost forests—groves of weather-beaten tree trunks in tidal marshes and meadows in southern Washington. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When incoming waters from a tsunami rush inland the bases of trees are submerged underwater and the trees are killed. Thousands of rotting stumps can be seen along the banks of tidal streams up and down the west coast. By dating the final ring on one of these trees Yamaguchi determined the past giant quake happened in 1700. According to Yamaguchi, “It’s important for us to know how big the earthquakes in the past have been in this region because the past tells us what can happen in the future.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Knowing the Cascadia fault is susceptible to giant quakes allows engineers to plan ahead and construct structures to withstand that kind of force. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although footage from the Tōhoku quake was the primary footage used to illustrate our story about megathrust quakes, my favorite visuals revealed the signs of an earthquake that hit over three hundred years ago. Not only did we witness unique science in action, we shared in the joy of two scientists who clearly love connecting the dots between geologic evidence and history. Plus, it was obvious they enjoyed striding through tidal muck in hip waders giddily digging away the shoreline to reveal an unusual and important discovery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Additional Links\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pnsn.org/\">Pacific Northwest Seismic Network Homepage\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pnsn.org/INFO_GENERAL/platecontours.html\">PNSN Deep Quakes in Washington and Oregon\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/pacnw/hazards.php\">USGS Pacific Northwest Hazards and Preparedness\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://geomaps.wr.usgs.gov/sfgeo/liquefaction/aboutliq.html\">USGS Liquefaction information in coordination with the California Geological Survey\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://nctr.pmel.noaa.gov/animate.html\">NOAA Center for Tsunami Research Animations\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.burkemuseum.org/static/geo_history_wa/index.htm\">The Burke Museum online exhibit on the geological evolution of Washington\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

In return, online participants will receive a certificate of completion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stanford has three classes up for online registrations: \u003ca href=\"http://www.ai-class.com/\">Introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI)\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://www.db-class.com/\">Introduction to Databases\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.ml-class.com/\">Machine Learning\u003c/a>. Since opening registration this August, over 100,000 people have registered for these three courses combined. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All three courses begin on October 10th. As with the Introduction to AI course, there is a basic track and an advanced track. The basic track requires participants to watch lectures and complete quizzes while the advanced track also requires homework and exam participation. Both tracks provide a certificate of completion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With everything free, there are some limitations. These classes do not count as Stanford university credit and do not provide direct access to the instructor. I might not be an expert in computer science, but I am definitely interested enough to follow at least one of these classes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let us know in the comments what you think of Stanford's offer and if you plan to take any of these courses!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tammy's husband, Mike, was watching Monday Night Football. Their daughter Amanda was doing her homework on the couch. When Tammy heard the roar, she looked outside her kitchen window. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No matter how high you looked,\" she says, \"all you saw was fire.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>You'll find our series of first-hand accounts, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/08/29/san-bruno-stories-i-didnt-want-to-die-but-then-i-go-whatever-i-didnt-want-my-kids-to-die/\">\"San Bruno Stories\"\u003c/a> on the KQED News Blog.\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says the pressure of the blast was so powerful, it sucked the air out of her living room. They couldn't move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It felt, she says, \"like when you’re in a dream, and you’re trying to run as fast as you can but you’re getting nowhere. Like you’re in quicksand.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few blocks away, on Claremont Drive, Kevin Ashley had just finished giving his two young children dinner. Like a lot of people, he thought there had been a plane crash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His first thought was to put the kids into the car. But then he realized the fire was already too close. \"I made a split-second decision. I took the kids and I ran, because if not, we were going to be trapped.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A year later, it's still painful for him to talk about.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I didn’t want my kids to die,\" he recalls, choking back tears. \"I didn’t want them to be burned. And then I decided, it’s not going to happen.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family has moved to South San Francisco. Ashley's two kids, like many others in the neighborhood, are in therapy. Kevin's wife, Michele, says moving back to San Bruno was out of the question. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It’s not a home if you don’t feel safe,\" she says. \"And on that night, it almost killed us. So that was the reason we decided to start over.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The pipes beneath our streets\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Bruno explosion put a spotlight on something most people rarely think about: the\u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/myhome/edusafety/systemworks/gas/transmissionpipelines/\"> vast network of underground pipes\u003c/a> that delivers natural gas to millions of homes across the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the main transmission lines in the Bay Area, Line 132, ran under the Crestmoor neighborhood of San Bruno. It was installed by Pacific Gas & Electric in 1956, which makes it an old pipe, but not the oldest in the PG&E system. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The part that ruptured was made up of several different sections, including six short pieces called \"pups.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to \u003ca href=\"http://chms.engineering.ucdavis.edu/faculty/howitt.html\">David Howitt,\u003c/a> a chemical engineer at the University of California, Davis, who studies the behavior of metals, the particular pup that ruptured along a welded seam just wasn't made very well. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The way that pipe was made was you bend it into shape, rather like you’d fold over a piece of paper,\" he explains. \"And then the two edges of the paper, or pipe, have to be stuck together.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When that gap was filled in with welding material, whoever welded it didn’t use enough metal, NTSB investigators found. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So what you essentially had was a region of the pipe that was much thinner than it should have been. And that’s where it failed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The investigation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the explosion, federal and state investigators descended on the area. They found that the section of pipe that blew up had more than 150 welding defects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which begs an important question: Where else might similar, shoddy pipes exist? What other sections of pipe were made by this same pipe-maker, or crew?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This information is critical. Because without knowing how strong a pipe is, there's no way of knowing how much pressure it can withstand. Or, how long it might last.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators hoped to find these answers in PG&E's archives. But according to the utility, those records have been lost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Kuprewicz is an independent pipeline expert in Redmond, Washington, who has studied pipe ruptures for 40 years. He says it's to be expected that a utility might not be able to produce every record for every pipeline. But for a pipeline such as Line 132, one that carries gas at high pressures, record keeping is a form of due diligence. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is extremely unusual to not have certain records related to your pipeline, even pipeline that’s 50, 60, or 70 years old,\" says Kuprewicz.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E says it has made \u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/about/newsroom/newsreleases/20101012/pge_announces_pipeline_2020_program_for_enhancing_natural_gas_pipeline_safety_and_reliability.shtml\">important changes\u003c/a>. It has \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/08/09/incoming-pge-ceo-to-be-one-of-highest-paid-in-country/\">hired a new CEO\u003c/a>, and has reorganized its gas division. It has hired dozens of new gas engineers, and agreed to run expensive \u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/myhome/edusafety/systemworks/gas/pipelinesafety/hydrostatictesting/index.shtml\">water pressure tests\u003c/a> on up to 152 miles of buried pipelines in the Bay Area this year, to make sure that they're safe. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many questions remain. For instance, what final straw caused that pipe to finally burst? Was it \u003ca href=\"http://articles.sfgate.com/2011-01-09/news/27018626_1_san-bruno-line-pg-e-pacific-gas\">changes to the gas pressure\u003c/a> over the past 50 years? Was it \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/science/ci_18244524\">a job the city approved in 2008\u003c/a> to replace a sewer pipe right next to the part of the gas line that exploded? Or something else? And what lessons can we take from it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"We want the truth.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For San Bruno City Manager Connie Jackson and many others here, tomorrow's \u003ca href=\"http://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/2010/sanbruno_ca.html\">report from the NTSB \u003c/a>will be momentous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"First and foremost we want the truth,\" says Jackson. \"What happened? Why did it happen? And more importantly, what will regulators do in order to assure that this never happens again?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last year, state and federal lawmakers have introduced legislation aiming to reduce the likelihood of another San Bruno explosion. State Assemblymember Jerry Hill's AB 56, which is currently making its way through the state legislature, would strengthen pipeline safety rules and force utilities and regulators to be more accountable. The \u003ca href=\"http://feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=de31f387-5056-8059-76af-90946f726452\">federal bills,\u003c/a> introduced by Congresswoman Jackie Spieier, from San Mateo, and Senator Diane Feinstein, among others, would increase inspections, and notify people who live above gas lines. They also would require that PG&E install automatic shut-off valves, so that fires could be put out much faster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here in Crestmoor, the gas line has been decommissioned, for good. The sound of hammers breaks the morning silence. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bill and Betty Magoolaghan are one of the first families to rebuild here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_23315\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/Second-blog-photo-san-bruno.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/Second-blog-photo-san-bruno-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Second blog photo san bruno\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-23315\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bill Magoolaghan. \u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Like other families, the Magoolaghans \u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/about/newsroom/mediaevents/fund-announcement/\">received money from PG&E\u003c/a> to help pay for temporary housing and other expenses.

They couldn't move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It felt, she says, \"like when you’re in a dream, and you’re trying to run as fast as you can but you’re getting nowhere. Like you’re in quicksand.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few blocks away, on Claremont Drive, Kevin Ashley had just finished giving his two young children dinner. Like a lot of people, he thought there had been a plane crash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His first thought was to put the kids into the car. But then he realized the fire was already too close. \"I made a split-second decision. I took the kids and I ran, because if not, we were going to be trapped.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A year later, it's still painful for him to talk about.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I didn’t want my kids to die,\" he recalls, choking back tears. \"I didn’t want them to be burned. And then I decided, it’s not going to happen.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family has moved to South San Francisco. Ashley's two kids, like many others in the neighborhood, are in therapy. Kevin's wife, Michele, says moving back to San Bruno was out of the question. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It’s not a home if you don’t feel safe,\" she says. \"And on that night, it almost killed us. So that was the reason we decided to start over.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The pipes beneath our streets\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Bruno explosion put a spotlight on something most people rarely think about: the\u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/myhome/edusafety/systemworks/gas/transmissionpipelines/\"> vast network of underground pipes\u003c/a> that delivers natural gas to millions of homes across the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the main transmission lines in the Bay Area, Line 132, ran under the Crestmoor neighborhood of San Bruno. It was installed by Pacific Gas & Electric in 1956, which makes it an old pipe, but not the oldest in the PG&E system. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The part that ruptured was made up of several different sections, including six short pieces called \"pups.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to \u003ca href=\"http://chms.engineering.ucdavis.edu/faculty/howitt.html\">David Howitt,\u003c/a> a chemical engineer at the University of California, Davis, who studies the behavior of metals, the particular pup that ruptured along a welded seam just wasn't made very well. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The way that pipe was made was you bend it into shape, rather like you’d fold over a piece of paper,\" he explains. \"And then the two edges of the paper, or pipe, have to be stuck together.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When that gap was filled in with welding material, whoever welded it didn’t use enough metal, NTSB investigators found. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So what you essentially had was a region of the pipe that was much thinner than it should have been. And that’s where it failed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The investigation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the explosion, federal and state investigators descended on the area. They found that the section of pipe that blew up had more than 150 welding defects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which begs an important question: Where else might similar, shoddy pipes exist? What other sections of pipe were made by this same pipe-maker, or crew?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This information is critical. Because without knowing how strong a pipe is, there's no way of knowing how much pressure it can withstand. Or, how long it might last.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators hoped to find these answers in PG&E's archives. But according to the utility, those records have been lost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Kuprewicz is an independent pipeline expert in Redmond, Washington, who has studied pipe ruptures for 40 years. He says it's to be expected that a utility might not be able to produce every record for every pipeline. But for a pipeline such as Line 132, one that carries gas at high pressures, record keeping is a form of due diligence. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is extremely unusual to not have certain records related to your pipeline, even pipeline that’s 50, 60, or 70 years old,\" says Kuprewicz.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E says it has made \u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/about/newsroom/newsreleases/20101012/pge_announces_pipeline_2020_program_for_enhancing_natural_gas_pipeline_safety_and_reliability.shtml\">important changes\u003c/a>. It has \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/08/09/incoming-pge-ceo-to-be-one-of-highest-paid-in-country/\">hired a new CEO\u003c/a>, and has reorganized its gas division. It has hired dozens of new gas engineers, and agreed to run expensive \u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/myhome/edusafety/systemworks/gas/pipelinesafety/hydrostatictesting/index.shtml\">water pressure tests\u003c/a> on up to 152 miles of buried pipelines in the Bay Area this year, to make sure that they're safe. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many questions remain. For instance, what final straw caused that pipe to finally burst? Was it \u003ca href=\"http://articles.sfgate.com/2011-01-09/news/27018626_1_san-bruno-line-pg-e-pacific-gas\">changes to the gas pressure\u003c/a> over the past 50 years? Was it \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/science/ci_18244524\">a job the city approved in 2008\u003c/a> to replace a sewer pipe right next to the part of the gas line that exploded? Or something else? And what lessons can we take from it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"We want the truth.\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For San Bruno City Manager Connie Jackson and many others here, tomorrow's \u003ca href=\"http://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/2010/sanbruno_ca.html\">report from the NTSB \u003c/a>will be momentous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"First and foremost we want the truth,\" says Jackson. \"What happened? Why did it happen? And more importantly, what will regulators do in order to assure that this never happens again?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last year, state and federal lawmakers have introduced legislation aiming to reduce the likelihood of another San Bruno explosion. State Assemblymember Jerry Hill's AB 56, which is currently making its way through the state legislature, would strengthen pipeline safety rules and force utilities and regulators to be more accountable. The \u003ca href=\"http://feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=de31f387-5056-8059-76af-90946f726452\">federal bills,\u003c/a> introduced by Congresswoman Jackie Spieier, from San Mateo, and Senator Diane Feinstein, among others, would increase inspections, and notify people who live above gas lines. They also would require that PG&E install automatic shut-off valves, so that fires could be put out much faster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here in Crestmoor, the gas line has been decommissioned, for good. The sound of hammers breaks the morning silence. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bill and Betty Magoolaghan are one of the first families to rebuild here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_23315\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/Second-blog-photo-san-bruno.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/Second-blog-photo-san-bruno-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Second blog photo san bruno\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-23315\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bill Magoolaghan. \u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Like other families, the Magoolaghans \u003ca href=\"http://www.pge.com/about/newsroom/mediaevents/fund-announcement/\">received money from PG&E\u003c/a> to help pay for temporary housing and other expenses.

The main prerequisite is sound rock of benign minerals that can be reliably crushed and stay that way without crumbling further into sand. Near the little planned town of El Granada, on the San Mateo coast north of Half Moon Bay, a quarry produced construction stone from a large body of granitic rock, the Montara Quartz Diorite. This stone is closely related to the granite of the High Sierra, and plate tectonics brought it here. It's full of flaky biotite (black mica) and lath-shaped crystals of hornblende in a setting of white quartz and feldspar. Iron from the black minerals has stained the stone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2011/08/11/what-happens-to-old-quarries/quarrygranite/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-22735\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/quarrygranite.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"quarrygranite\" width=\"640\" height=\"405\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-22735\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/quarrygranite.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/quarrygranite-400x253.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stone was used locally in highways and the Half Moon Bay Airport, especially during World War II. It then sat quietly until the landowner sold it in 1995. Now called \u003ca href=\"http://www.mpl.sanmateo.org/qpinfo.html\">Quarry Park\u003c/a>, it serves several low-key uses: a playground in front, woodsy trails in back, and an amphitheater-like space in the former pit that looks suited for frisbeeing or picnics.

This became the mixed-use \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/shadow_cliffs\">Shadow Cliffs Regional Recreation Area\u003c/a>.

The main prerequisite is sound rock of benign minerals that can be reliably crushed and stay that way without crumbling further into sand. Near the little planned town of El Granada, on the San Mateo coast north of Half Moon Bay, a quarry produced construction stone from a large body of granitic rock, the Montara Quartz Diorite. This stone is closely related to the granite of the High Sierra, and plate tectonics brought it here. It's full of flaky biotite (black mica) and lath-shaped crystals of hornblende in a setting of white quartz and feldspar. Iron from the black minerals has stained the stone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2011/08/11/what-happens-to-old-quarries/quarrygranite/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-22735\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/quarrygranite.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"quarrygranite\" width=\"640\" height=\"405\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-22735\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/quarrygranite.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2011/08/quarrygranite-400x253.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stone was used locally in highways and the Half Moon Bay Airport, especially during World War II. It then sat quietly until the landowner sold it in 1995. Now called \u003ca href=\"http://www.mpl.sanmateo.org/qpinfo.html\">Quarry Park\u003c/a>, it serves several low-key uses: a playground in front, woodsy trails in back, and an amphitheater-like space in the former pit that looks suited for frisbeeing or picnics.

In the Livermore valley, enormous beds of river gravel were exploited, starting in 1923 with Henry J. Kaiser, and they continue to produce today.

This became the mixed-use \u003ca href=\"http://www.ebparks.org/parks/shadow_cliffs\">Shadow Cliffs Regional Recreation Area\u003c/a>.
