StopPATH WV

Did anyone know about the PSC public hearing regarding another proposed rate increase by Allegheny Power held in Martinsburg last night?  Apparently not, because no one showed up.  Not one person.

We need serious reform of the PSC, including a requirement that landowners, ratepayers or stakeholders in a case be notified by U.S. mail instead of a tiny ad in the classified section of the newspaper of record in the locality.  If you don't read the legal notices in your local newspaper's classified section on a daily basis, you may miss your notice that a corporation is intending to grab your property through eminent domain or raise the rate you pay for regulated services.  Does this sound right to you?  Or more like the scales of justice tipping heavily away from due process?

PSC reform will be in the WV legislature this session.  Contact your legislators and get them on board to support it!
