LOS ANGELES, Dec 23 (Reuters) - Southern California Gas Co and the Los Angeles City Attorney reached an agreement on Wednesday on a plan for the utility to provide temporary housing for residents living near a massive underground natural gas leak, the Los Angeles Times reported. The Los Angeles Times reported that some 2,500 families were waiting to be relocated from the neighborhood and that SoCal Gas had paid for the relocation of 2,000 households as of Tuesday. The utility insists that the leak, while a major public nuisance, poses no immediate public safety threat because the gas dissipates outdoors. But county health officials said long-term health effects from exposure to the gas are unknown. SoCal Gas is owned by San Diego-based Sempra Energy. Its leaking storage field is the second-largest such facility in the Western United States by capacity, after a field in Montana. The leak now accounts for roughly a quarter of the state's total emissions of methane, the principal component of natural gas and a far more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide.
