It could also delay payouts to victims of wildfires started by PG&E equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The potential sale would require approval from the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, and the California Public Utilities Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal \u003cem>could\u003c/em> also drive up rates for PG&E customers elsewhere in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"San Francisco has no wildfire risk obviously and other areas have a lot of it,\" Wara said. \"So if you remove the customers that don't create that risk you're going to maybe raise costs for other customers.
