Gas leak: In the Dec. 8 California section, an article about Los Angeles City Atty. Mike Feuer’s lawsuit against Southern California Gas Co. over a Porter Ranch area leak said that the state Air Resources Board had reported that the leak was releasing roughly 50,000 kilograms of methane per hour — an amount Feuer likened to 200,000 cars running for a year. Feuer was referring to the cumulative emissions since the leak was discovered in October.

Nonbank lenders: In the Nov. 30 Section A, an article about the growth of nonbank mortgage lenders said that a review of federal loan data showed that nonbank FHA and VA loans were about 23% more likely to go bad than those issued by banks. The data did not include VA-backed loans.

Prepaid cards: On the Dec. 7 Monday Business page, an article about startup companies offering prepaid debit cards misspelled the last name of Farhan Ahmad, chief executive of Bento for Business, as Amhad.
