I believe that you can use pg_dump to just dump out one table.

You can also specify the output of pg_dump to be all SQL commands.. and then
only execute the queries in the pg_dump that you want.
I'm not a huge expert on pg_dump myself, but try man pg_dump it should answer
a lot of questions for you.
