    The author studies properties of weak solutions with finite entropy production to multidimensional scalar conservation laws \(\partial_t u + \mathrm{div}_x F(u)=0\), \(u=u(t,x)\), \(x\in\mathbb{R}^d\), \(t\in (0,T)\). Based on the kinetic formulation, it is established under suitable nonlinearity assumption on the flux vector \(F\) that the set of non Lebesgue points of \(u\) has Hausdorff dimension at most \(d\). The author also introduces a notion of Lagrangian representation, which allows to give a new interpretation of the entropy dissipation measure.
