PG&E’s President and COO Nick Stavropoulos Named to National Safety Council’s Board of Directors

Nick Stavropoulos, President and Chief Operating Officer of Pacific Gas

Council’s Board of Directors.

The nation's leading safety advocate for more than 100 years, the
National Safety Council (NSC) is a nonprofit organization of more than
55,000 members with the mission to save lives by preventing injuries and
deaths at work, in homes and communities, and on the road through
leadership, research, education and advocacy.

“Our newest board members, including Nick, are true safety leaders who
are passionate advocates and among the most dedicated professionals in
the industry today,” said Deborah A.P. Hersman, President and CEO of the
National Safety Council. “I look forward to working with Nick to advance
our mission of ending preventable deaths in our lifetime.”

“The mission of ending preventable deaths in our lifetime drives me both
professionally and personally. There is no more important goal that we
can achieve than having our family, friends and coworkers return home
safely to their families every single day. I am truly honored to join
the NSC’s Board and look forward to helping the organization and
industry raise the bar on safety,” said Stavropoulos.

Stavropoulos has more than 35 years of experience in the U.S. and
international energy industry. He oversees a diverse workforce of
employees across electric, gas, power generation and nuclear operations
as well as corporate support functions. He began working for PG&E in
2011 to lead the multibillion-dollar recovery and restoration effort to
enhance the safety of the company’s natural gas system after the 2010
gas pipeline explosion in San Bruno, Calif.

Stavropoulos is a passionate advocate for workplace safety and improving
safety culture. Under his leadership, PG&E’s gas business has earned or
