PG&E is hinting it will pull out of a $3 million settlement with the state Public Utilities Commission over allegations of flawed record keeping if commissioners are allowed to ask about its past practices at a public hearing on Monday.

The veiled threat, lodged this month in a regulatory filing with the commission, marks the latest turn in the running dispute over PG&E's records regarding its gas transmission system, which came under fire following the Sept. 9 gas pipeline blast in San Bruno that killed eight people and destroyed 38 homes.
