Pacific Gas and Electric Company GRANT OF EASEMENT DISCLOSURE STATEMENT I This Disclosure Statement will assist you in understanding your rights as a property owner when granting an easement to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) to accommodate your, or your neighbor's, new utility service extension. Please read this disclosure carefully before signing the Grant of Easement. . You are under no obligation or threat of condemnation by PG&E to grant this easement. . The granting of this easement is an accommodation to PG&E's applicant requesting the extension of PG&E utility facilities to the applicant's property or project, pursuant to PG&E's Electric and Gas Line Extension Rules 15 and 16, as authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission. As this is an accommodation to a single customer or group of customers and not PG&E, the California Public Utilities Commission has not authorized PG&E to purchase such easements. . By granting this easement to PG&E, the facilities installed within the easement across your property may be used to serve additional customers in the area. . Removal and/or pruning of trees or other vegetation on your property may be necessary for the installation of PG&E facilities. You have the option of having PG&E's contractors perform this work on your property, if available, or granting permission to PG&E's applicant or the applicant's contractor to perform this work. Additionally, in order to comply with California fire laws and safety orders, PG&E or its contractors will periodically perform vegetation maintenance activities on your property as provided for in this grant of easement. . The description of the location in which the PG&E utility facilities are to be installed upon, in, on, or across your property must be satisfactory to you. . The California Public Utilities Commission has authorized that the applicant may perform the installation of certain utility facilities for utility service. In addition to granting this easement to PG&E, you will need to give your consent to the applicant, or applicant's contractor, working on your property. Upon completion of the applicant's installation, the utility facilities will be inspected by PG&E. When the facility installation is determined to be acceptable the facilities will be conveyed to PG&E by its applicant. By signing the Grant of Easement, you are acknowledging that you have read this disclosure and understand that you are granting the easement to PG&E of your own free will. Please return the signed and notarized Grant of Easement and this Disclosure Statement to PG&E. The duplicate copy of the Grant of Easement and this Disclosure Statement is for your records.
