Pacific Gas and Electric Company is undertaking a project to rework two gas storage wells, Whiskey Slough 14-E and Whiskey Slough 8-E, located in the McDonald Island Gas Oil Field in San Joaquin County, California.

The project is overseen by the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division, which is approving two permits for the work. Under the California Environmental Quality Act, the project has been granted a Notice of Exemption as of July 17, 2026, based on categorical exemptions for maintenance activities that do not expand use or cause significant environmental impact. The project is classified under NAICS code 213112.
