Timothy Alan Simon: Commissioner with a Past
Don Bauder, Thanks for an excellent article. I spoke to you awhile back regarding corruption at the CPUC. An email request to meet with the Executive Director of the CPUC resulted in the State Police showing up at my front door. Later, the FBI contacted me to ask about, "the corruption at the CPUC." I was suppose to have a phone meeting today (April 25) with the Executive Director of the CPUC, regarding Utility documents I photographed, which can be used to prove a Utility committed numerous frauds to conceal problems in its underground infrastructure. One of the frauds the Utility committed, was to declare that a phone number in a document has the last five digits of "85093." I claim the number has the last five digits of "25093." It's an important phone number, google "a fictional phone number." As a result of the FBI inquiry, Mr. Clanon, the Executive Directory of the CPUC, agreed to speak with me on August 22, 2011. Mr. Clanon told me he would look at the documents. An Email from Commissioner Peevey's Chief of Staff, dated August 22, 2011, prevents anybody at the CPUC from investigating the problems, and requires Mr. Clanon, and only Mr. Clanon, to deal with the issues I have complained about. From what I have been told by CPUC employees, Peevey is intentionally covering up problems in a Utility's infrastructure. The email I received today stated, "We will need to reschedule your phonecall with Mr. Clanon. There is a budget crisis & he has been called to travel to Sacramento." If the Executive Director would admit that a Utility committed frauds in a Formal Complaint, the CPUC could fine the Utility over $200 million, which would help with the budget crisis. Google, "Mike Knell CPUC", and you can see some of the documents I am referring to. http://sandiegoreader.com/users/photos/2012/apr/2…— April 25, 2012 10:40 p.m.
