  1. The Unintended Consequences of the State’s Mishandling of Utility Regulation: PG&E Residential Electric Tiered Rates, Prop 16 and A Proposal for Consideration Part II Presented by Michael Turnipseed Kern County Taxpayers Association March 9, 2010 KERNTAX 1

  2. PG&E’s comments to the Board of Supervisors in addressing KERNTAX’s residential electric tiered rates “ In short, we agree with Mr. Turnipseed’s analysis of the adverse impact to electric ratepayers in Kern County. His analysis, his numbers are correct. So, there’s no disagreement with that analysis.” “ In three weeks from now, PG&E is making a filing with the CPUC to propose measures to respond to the adverse situation that Kern County customers are being impacted by high costs and, as Mr. Turnipseed said, subsidizing other PG&E customers throughout the state.” KERNTAX 2

  3. PG&E’s comments to the Board of Supervisors in addressing KERNTAX’s residential electric tiered rates “ The combination of legislative and regulatory constraints has led to an unsustainable and arguably punitive situation for Tier 5 customers. The Tier 5 rate is far in excess of the cost to produce and deliver these kilowatts, and far in excess of what is necessary to encourage conservation; again, as pointed out in his [Turnipseed’s] presentation. Such extreme upper tier rates are difficult to justify on grounds of equity. So, we understand it, we’re trying to do something about it with regards to approaching the CPUC for changes in what we charge each tier, and we’re asking for rate reductions before the summer.” KERNTAX 3
