Yesterday, HB 4403 passed out of the House Energy, Industry and Labor Committee by a very strong margin.   This victory is due to the many calls and emails of support the committee members received from all of you!  We thank you for taking the time to support this bill which requires notification of property owners.

But, we're not done yet!  HB 4403 has been sent to the House Judiciary Committee where it must be put on the agenda for a vote and sent to the full House for a vote by next Wednesday, March 3.

Please call or email Delegate Miley, the committee chair, and ask him to put it on the agenda ASAP.  His contact info.:  Capitol Phone: (304) 340-3252 or email tim.miley@wvhouse.gov

You may also contact the members of the House Judiciary Committee so that they will vote in favor of it when it is put on the agenda.  Here's a link to contact info. for all committee members: http://www.legis.state.wv.us/committees/house/HouseCommittee.cfm?Chart=judweeblylink_new_window

We also need to help shepherd Senate Bill 614 through the Senate Judiciary Committee.  We had hoped to see it on the agenda yesterday while some of us were in Charleston, but it did not make it.  Call or email Senate Judiciary Chairman Jeff Kessler Capitol Phone: (304) 357-7880  E-mail: jeff.kessler@wvsenate.gov and ask him to put it on the committee's agenda.  You may also email the committee members and urge them to support it.  Here's a link to the list: http://www.legis.state.wv.us/committees/senate/SenateCommittee.cfm?Chart=judweeblylink_new_window

We're so close to success, please don't drop the ball now!  Thanks for all your support!  Together we are making a difference to reform the PSC so that landowners affected by future transmission line projects will receive timely notification.
