Petition to Revoke P.G.&E.’s Corporate Charter




PETITION TO REVOKE THE CORPORATE CHARTER OF PACIFIC GAS

AND ELECTRIC COMPANY and RELATED CORPORATIONS:


TO: Kamala D. Harris, Attorney General of the State of California, and Debra Bowen, Secretary of State of the State of California, and all California State Legislators:
We, the People of the State of California, as law-abiding citizens, taxpayers, ratepayers, and voters, respectfully request that you, and each of you, swiftly and without any hesitation, delay or excuse, revoke the Charter of Pacific Gas and Electric Company, and any and all of their parent and subsidiary corporations, herein after referred to as P.G.&E., and dissolve said corporations as per the powers vested in you in accordance with California Corporations Code 1801 (a) (2), related provisions, and the rights and rights explicitly outlined in California State Constitution Article (1) section (1), as critical functions of your duties, responsibilities and obligations as elected officials, lawmakers and law enforcers.

We, the People, note that no armed robber, or gang of same, would be allowed to roam free and violate laws while threatening and harming the health and safety of the people and their privacy and property in our beautiful state of California; therefore, we will no longer tolerate such actions by P.G.&E. We will hold you, and each of you, personally liable for any and all damages.

Despite local ordinances and repeated public comments to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), which is chaired by Michael R. Peevey, a revolving door regulatory bully and corporate-funded and corporate-captured bureaucrat, P.G.&E. has willfully and repeatedly poisoned, injured, harmed, killed, trespassed, harassed, and violated the privacy of the people threatening our health, safety, property, and livelihood, in violation of the California Constitution Article 1, Section 1, which you are sworn to uphold.

A summary of wrongdoing of Pacific Gas and Electric Company includes, but is not limited to, the following:

(1) Wanton disregard of the seismic hazards in the vicinity of the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Reactors, particularly in light of the massive meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi Plants in Japan where radiation levels are now acknowledged to be LETHAL. The CPUC’s directive for P.G.&E. to study and “look at” the numerous earthquake faults, at a cost to us of $17 million is essentially extortion of the ratepayers and fails to address the imminent harm posed by fuel rods. Nuclear reactors are an elaborate expensive methodology to create boiling water and steam to turn a turbine and pose an unacceptable risk.

(2) Their willful and repeated violation of privacy, and exposure to the public of highly injurious Electromagnetic Frequency Emitters, by devices known erroneously as “SmartMeters,” against the will of the public and without their consent and in violation of Ordinances duly enacted by elected officials, including, but, not limited to Santa Cruz County Ordinance Number 5084, Lake County Ordinances and similar Ordinances in the Cities of Capitola, California and Seaside, California;

(3) Ongoing poisoning with hexavalent chromium, a known carcinogen, in the Mojave Desert town of Hinckley, California;

(4) The September 2010 San Bruno Fire, which killed eight people, is now considered by PG&E and their lawyers to be the fault of the residents and local governments of San Bruno, as per their recent court filings in State Superior Court.

Paying to poison people, or paying a pittance for human life after the fact, is a crime. Only such chartered corporations would be allowed to engage in such heinous wrong-doing with complete impunity. Therefore, you MUST revoke their Corporate Charter.

One Goal - A State-owned Power Company


So - if we, somehow are able to put this one over - and through the Petition & Referendum Process are able to actually Revoke the Corporate Charter of the Pacific Gas & Electric Company, what then? What would replace it ?

The simple and sane answer - and better for everyone involved - would be for the State to take over the Administration and Maintenance of the power grid. Then, whatever profits would be derived from the generation and sale of kilowatt hours would be added to the public good - and the State would have a profitable business that could add to the State revenue, and help out during the yearly Ordeal at the Sessions during the annual budget crunch up at the State House.



Assignment:



Let someone – perhaps a college student looking for a suitable subject for a term paper or a thesis =OR= a hungry, brave, lean, desperate Journalist from the old muckraking tradition take this on; if he – or she – dares; the Subject of the historical relationship between P. G. & E. and the four San Francisco plutocrats of the late nineteenth century – Crocker, Hopkins, Huntington, and Stanford.

Let it be determined, and documented - IF it is so – that the big four of San Francisco were among the founders of the P.G. & E. Corporation. And if their heirs are also the beneficiaries of this cozy “Trust” that has been perpetuated by privilege and convenience, lo these many years, Let that, also, come under the relentless gaze of scholarship and documentation, and come into the Light; and be made known.

Let the Subject be the exact nature of the contractual arrangement between the State of California, and the P.G. & E. generating “plant” at Hetch-Hetchy. Let this Subject be examined under the microscope of ascorbic Journalism. Let the Contract between the State of California and P.G. & E. be first produced, and then examined: What, exactly, has been going on, all these Years?

Let us know – If it is True - that the taxpayers actually pay the up-keep on the Dam at Hetch-Hetchy. Does P. G. & E. lease the site? Just who owns the generators? What is the nature of the Lease? Just how much has the Company benefited from this lease over the Years? What is the percentage of Profit ? – ( in relation to the yearly lease) - that accrues to this Private Corporation from this cozy relationship; this relationship that P.G. & E. maintains with the “State of California?”

Let the Subject of this tome also include a litany of the names of the Friends of P.G. & E. as they have paraded through the past Century in the halls of Governance. Who, indeed, have been the Friends of this Corporation in the California State government over the last century? Who – which politicians? - have greased the wheels of convenience for this Trust that soaks the People for electric power? Now, with the advent of “SmartMeter” technology, we see them assume the role of Spymaster; Autocrat; Destroyer. We must Ask Ourselves: Is This What We Really Want?
