they said in that case, they, they could apply to the cpuc for a temporary rate increase to recoup those costs but it wouldn't fall under this fire proposal. theresa garcia, abc 7 news. >> experts warn the pipeline explosion may be the latest example of a growing risk created by ailing infrastructure. failing infrastructure nationwide utilies have been under increasing pressure to better inspect and replace aging pipes. many laid down years before the sprawling communities were built right on top of them. the pipe in san bruno is more than 50 years old. critics are long warned the possibility of catastrophic failures. they have 2,840 significant gas pipeline accidents since 1990. more than a third caused death or serious injury. in 2002 congress passed the first law requiring utilities to inspect pipelines ruing through heavily populated areas. since then more than 3,000 problems were identified. >> the san franciscoiants are expecting a capacity cro at tonight's game against the los angeles dodgers and it will help benefit the victims of the san bruno fire. the team is donating $3 of every ticket sold at at&t par to a victims fund. the giants are in a first-place tie with the padres aft beatinghem in san diego sunday. the giants will honor the fire victims in a special pre-game ceremony toght and help collt donations from fans attending t game. >> coming up, a coast guard rescue in richmond. one man in the hospital after a boat hits the rocks. >> did apple's co see jobs really try to carry a ninja weapon on a plane?
