Original Message Starting in mid-November, PG&E proposes using a research vessel to emit very loud blasts of sound – 250 decibels – into the ocean from air guns that will help the utility better understand the earthquake faults surrounding the nuclear plant.

The sound blasts will be emitted every 15 seconds nearly continuously for much of November and possibly into December along a 50-mile stretch of ocean from Cayucos to Guadalupe. If needed, PG&E can apply to conduct more surveying next year during the same November and December period.

The surveys were prompted by a state law written by state Sen. Sam Blakeslee, R-San Luis Obispo, and the March 2011 Fukushima earthquake and nuclear disaster in Japan. They are intended to yield new geologic information. The California Energy and Public Utilities Commissions support the survey work.
