The CPUC is a public agency that is responsible for regulating the public utilities in California. In this case, this agency is in the midst of an investigation into the outages at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS), specifically into the appropriate allocation of costs, either to the utilities (Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas & Electric, mainly) or to the ratepayer. This meeting is not a formal court-like proceeding where the facts of the case may be presented, but a prehearing conference which is only about the scope and schedule of "Phase 2". Not much happened at this meeting except for the violation of the rights of the citizen in the audience, who was attempting to video record the meeting. CitizensOversight has previously been kicked out of the room with our video camera, and we submitted a demand letter that the CPUC comply with the law. Therefore, we created this audio recording of the confrontation with the citizen in the room. You can skip to the confrontation at about 1:50 into the recording. The entire meeting comprised only about an hour and was nothing but administrative details. The reason Administrative Law Judge Melanie Darling is so bent out of shape about recordings is because in the prehearing conference for Phase 1, after adjournment, a group of activists unfurled a banner in the room, and Darling ran down and physically confiscated the banner, in violation of their First and Fourth amendment rights. Subsequent to that embarrassment, Darling said there were to be no recordings whatsoever. In the evidentiary hearings for phase one, which lasted 5 days, the first day was not recorded at all. However, after the attempt of COPS to record the meeting, they did webcast it, albeit in very poor quality and very difficult to view and replay, plus all intervals which were "off the record" were muted.
The reality is that Edison and the utilities desperately want to keep these meetings under their control and out of the public eye, and the CPUC is rigged to comply with their wishes, and thus this attempt to limit oversight by the public.
We thank Barbara George of Women's Energy Matters for arm wrestling with ALJ Darling and forcing Commissioner Florio to request that the officers remove the citizen from the room.

California anti-nuclear activists spoke out at the August 3, 2012 meeting of the California Public Utility Commission in San Francisco about the threat to the people of California at the dangerous nuclear plant near San Diego. The utilities control the commission through the former Southern California Edison executive Michael Peevey who is chair of the commission. He has refused to do a full investigation of the causes of the accident and the cover-up by the utility which is costing the people of California hundreds of millions of dollars to rate payers and the public. He receives thousands of dollars from these same utilities for expensive trips around the world.

The secret life of Michael Peevey
By jackie

California's top energy regulator rolls with power company executives behind the scenes
THE BUDDY SYSTEM
CFEE isn't the only nonprofit that regularly flies Peevey overseas for green travel tours with high-ranking utility executives, and the 12 days he spent in Spain wasn't the only time he spent away from official duties and in the company of the corporations his commission regulates.
These controversial getaways are just a small part of Peevey's involvement with private-sector interests. He also chairs the board of a nonprofit investment fund created as part of a $30 million settlement agreement with PG&E;. Called the California Clean Energy Fund, it funnels money into private venture-capital funds that invest in green start-ups, plus a few companies in the fossil-fuel sector.
While legislators have voiced frustration that lax CPUC oversight of PG&E; on pipeline-safety issues opened the door to disaster in San Bruno, inside observers are critical of the outright favors Peevey has granted utilities, such as guaranteeing an unprecedented, higher-than-ever profit margin for PG&E; as part of the company's 2004 bankruptcy settlement.
The CPUC is set up to perform as a watchdog agency, yet social and professional ties running deep within California's insular energy community mean regulators sometimes run in the same circles as the executives who answer to them, making for cozier relationships than the general public might anticipate. It's an old-fashioned insider game that one longtime observer wryly characterizes as "the buddy system." But the buddy system can bring consequences.
As the public face of the CPUC, Peevey repeatedly has been thrust into the spotlight. He has absorbed advocates' concerns about pipeline safety, rising electricity rates, SmartMeters, missed targets for energy efficiency, and municipalities' David-vs.-Goliath battles with PG&E; to implement community choice aggregation (CCA), to name a few. He's a magnet for public scrutiny while occupying the center seat at commission meetings, but Peevey's behind-the-scenes engagements with private-sector organizations bent on shaping statewide energy policy demonstrate how power is wielded in California's energy world, a system in which regulators seem to be partnering with utilities rather than policing them.
Based at Pier 35 in San Francisco, CFEE's board of directors is composed of a small group of officers, plus a long list of members who hail from some of the most prominent businesses nationwide. Shell, Chevron, J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, AT&T;, and PG&E; all hold positions on CFEE's membership board, and each entity chips in to fund the foundation's activities and travel excursions.
The group also includes representatives from labor organizations like the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and mainstream environmental groups such as the Natural Resources Defense Council. Among the emeritus members of CFEE's governing board are some high-ranking figures, such as CIA director-turned-Pentagon boss Leon Panetta. CFEE received $45,000 in donations from PG&E; in 2009 (the most recent year available) and was granted similar amounts in prior years.

At the December 18, 2014 meeting of the California Public Utility Commission, the president of the CPUC president Michael Peevey tried to shutdown the speakers who were giving testimony about the affects of "Smart Meters" and the health and safety dangers to workers and the public. This was his last day of president of the Commission and has been forced out by charges of conflicts of
interest and corruption.
Testimony was given about the serious health and safety issues faced by the public as a result of the installation of "smart meters".

At an administrative hearing on January 8, 2013 of the California Public Utility Commission on the multi-million dollars costs at the broken down San Onofre nuclear power plant run by Southern California Edison, Administrative Judge Melanie M. Darling rushed off the bench and grabbed a banner against nuclear power. The judge previously had allowed the Southern California Edison owners to continue forcing rate payers and the public to pay for the broken down nuclear plant and also allowed SCE to possibly seal information about the dangerous nuclear plant from the public and stall turning in the information to the hearing.
The judge adjourned the meeting and charged into the hearing room to grab the banner that was already being taken down. She said that she would not allow the hearing to turn into a a "shoutfest". The lights were also turned off by the staff to prevent any documentary coverage of the altercation.
The chair of the California Public Utilities Commission is former Southern California Edison CEO Michael Peevey who has a record of corruption and kickbacks from the utilities and is kept in office by pro-utlility governor Jerry Brown who appoints the Commissioners who are supposed to protect the people of California and do oversight of the utilities including Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas and Electric. Peevey has done damage control for these criminal operators who have killed dozens of people and contaminated thousands of people in Northern and Southern California.
The anti-nuclear activists later had a press conference on the steps of the California State Building in San Francisco and pledged to build bigger support to shutdown the dangerous nuclear plant.
The protest and press conference was organized by a coalition of groups including No Nukes Action Committee, Womens Energy Matters, Occupy San Francisco, Nuclear Free California, Eon, United Public Workers For Action. Also Speaking was Coalition to Decommission San Onofre.

The judge previously had allowed the Southern California Edison owners to continue forcing rate payers and the public to pay for the broken down nuclear plant and also allowed SCE to possibly seal information about the dangerous nuclear plant from the public and stall turning in the information to the hearing. The judge adjourned the meeting and charged into the hearing room to grab the banner that was already being taken down. She said that she would not allow the hearing to ...

The CPUC is a public agency that is responsible for regulating the public utilities in California. In this case, this agency is in the midst of an investigation into the outages at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS), specifically into the appropriate allocation of costs, either to the utilities (Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas & Electric, mainly) or to the ratepayer. This meeting is not a formal court-like proceeding where the facts of the case may be presented, but a prehearing conference which is only about the scope and schedule of "Phase 2". Not much happened at this meeting except for the violation of the rights of the citizen in the audience, who was attempting to video record the meeting. CitizensOversight has previously been kicked out of the room with our video camera, and we submitted a demand letter that the CPUC comply with the law. Therefore, we created this audio recording of the confrontation with the citizen in the room. You can skip to the confrontation at about 1:50 into the recording. The entire meeting comprised only about an hour and was nothing but administrative details. The reason Administrative Law Judge Melanie Darling is so bent out of shape about recordings is because in the prehearing conference for Phase 1, after adjournment, a group of activists unfurled a banner in the room, and Darling ran down and physically confiscated the banner, in violation of their First and Fourth amendment rights. Subsequent to that embarrassment, Darling said there were to be no recordings whatsoever. In the evidentiary hearings for phase one, which lasted 5 days, the first day was not recorded at all. However, after the attempt of COPS to record the meeting, they did webcast it, albeit in very poor quality and very difficult to view and replay, plus all intervals which were "off the record" were muted.
The reality is that Edison and the utilities desperately want to keep these meetings under their control and out of the public eye, and the CPUC is rigged to comply with their wishes, and thus this attempt to limit oversight by the public.
We thank Barbara George of Women's Energy Matters for arm wrestling with ALJ Darling and forcing Commissioner Florio to request that the officers remove the citizen from the room.

California anti-nuclear activists spoke out at the August 3, 2012 meeting of the California Public Utility Commission in San Francisco about the threat to the people of California at the dangerous nuclear plant near San Diego. The utilities control the commission through the former Southern California Edison executive Michael Peevey who is chair of the commission. He has refused to do a full investigation of the causes of the accident and the cover-up by the utility which is costing the people of California hundreds of millions of dollars to rate payers and the public. He receives thousands of dollars from these same utilities for expensive trips around the world.

The secret life of Michael Peevey

California's top energy regulator rolls with power company executives behind the scenes
THE BUDDY SYSTEM
CFEE isn't the only nonprofit that regularly flies Peevey overseas for green travel tours with high-ranking utility executives, and the 12 days he spent in Spain wasn't the only time he spent away from official duties and in the company of the corporations his commission regulates.
These controversial getaways are just a small part of Peevey's involvement with private-sector interests. He also chairs the board of a nonprofit investment fund created as part of a $30 million settlement agreement with PG&E;. Called the California Clean Energy Fund, it funnels money into private venture-capital funds that invest in green start-ups, plus a few companies in the fossil-fuel sector.
While legislators have voiced frustration that lax CPUC oversight of PG&E; on pipeline-safety issues opened the door to disaster in San Bruno, inside observers are critical of the outright favors Peevey has granted utilities, such as guaranteeing an unprecedented, higher-than-ever profit margin for PG&E; as part of the company's 2004 bankruptcy settlement.
The CPUC is set up to perform as a watchdog agency, yet social and professional ties running deep within California's insular energy community mean regulators sometimes run in the same circles as the executives who answer to them, making for cozier relationships than the general public might anticipate. It's an old-fashioned insider game that one longtime observer wryly characterizes as "the buddy system." But the buddy system can bring consequences.
As the public face of the CPUC, Peevey repeatedly has been thrust into the spotlight. He has absorbed advocates' concerns about pipeline safety, rising electricity rates, SmartMeters, missed targets for energy efficiency, and municipalities' David-vs.-Goliath battles with PG&E; to implement community choice aggregation (CCA), to name a few. He's a magnet for public scrutiny while occupying the center seat at commission meetings, but Peevey's behind-the-scenes engagements with private-sector organizations bent on shaping statewide energy policy demonstrate how power is wielded in California's energy world, a system in which regulators seem to be partnering with utilities rather than policing them.
Based at Pier 35 in San Francisco, CFEE's board of directors is composed of a small group of officers, plus a long list of members who hail from some of the most prominent businesses nationwide. Shell, Chevron, J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, AT&T;, and PG&E; all hold positions on CFEE's membership board, and each entity chips in to fund the foundation's activities and travel excursions.
The group also includes representatives from labor organizations like the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and mainstream environmental groups such as the Natural Resources Defense Council. Among the emeritus members of CFEE's governing board are some high-ranking figures, such as CIA director-turned-Pentagon boss Leon Panetta. CFEE received $45,000 in donations from PG&E; in 2009 (the most recent year available) and was granted similar amounts in prior years.

At an administrative hearing on January 8, 2013 of the California Public Utility Commission on the multi-million dollars costs at the broken down San Onofre nuclear power plant run by Southern California Edison, Administrative Judge Melanie M. Darling rushed off the bench and grabbed a banner against nuclear power. The judge previously had allowed the Southern California Edison owners to continue forcing rate payers and the public to pay for the broken down nuclear plant and also allowed SCE to possibly seal information about the dangerous nuclear plant from the public and stall turning in the information to the hearing.
The judge adjourned the meeting and charged into the hearing room to grab the banner that was already being taken down. She said that she would not allow the hearing to turn into a a "shoutfest". The lights were also turned off by the staff to prevent any documentary coverage of the altercation.
The chair of the California Public Utilities Commission is former Southern California Edison CEO Michael Peevey who has a record of corruption and kickbacks from the utilities and is kept in office by pro-utlility governor Jerry Brown who appoints the Commissioners who are supposed to protect the people of California and do oversight of the utilities including Southern California Edison and Pacific Gas and Electric. Peevey has done damage control for these criminal operators who have killed dozens of people and contaminated thousands of people in Northern and Southern California.
The anti-nuclear activists later had a press conference on the steps of the California State Building in San Francisco and pledged to build bigger support to shutdown the dangerous nuclear plant.
The protest and press conference was organized by a coalition of groups including No Nukes Action Committee, Womens Energy Matters, Occupy San Francisco, Nuclear Free California, Eon, United Public Workers For Action. Also Speaking was Coalition to Decommission San Onofre.

Que Poca
Me dices que
a llegado el momento
de terminar lo nuestro
y te vas a marchar
Y aclaras que
como pasa en un cuento
siempre existe un principio
luego llega el final
Me dices que
es mejor que sigamos
cada quien por su lado
que me busque otro amor
Que asi es mejor
que para ti es perfecto
que se acabo aquel cuento
que digamos adios
Que poca, marcharte
sin sentir remordimiento
causarme un gran dolor
y un cruel tormento
al dar punto final
a nuestra historia
Que poca, me pides
que nomas seamos amigos
se me hace que te fallan
los sentidos, que poca
pena tienes al pedirlo
Me dices que
es mejor que sigamos
cada quien por su lado
que me busque otro amor
Que asi es mejor
que para ti es perfecto
que se acabo aquel cuento
que digamos adios
Que poca, marcharte
sin sentir remordimiento
causarme un gran dolor
y un cruel tormento
al dar punto final
a nuestra historia
Que poca, me pides
que nomas seamos amigos
se me hace que te fallan
los sentidos, que poca
madre tienes al pedirlo
