AMI is proving not to be RELIABLE vs Non AMI Grids. Proof is in Texas, California, Oregon and beyond.

01:26:04
Are there ways a consumer can request a calibration like just a battery check?
Public Utility Owner
01:27:46

Duane Miller - thank you for pointing out the high rates we are paying under the PUD
Guy
01:29:51
Great question Duayne. My bill here is more than bill in Seattle was.
RJ Stryker
01:30:19
The base rate is way too high.
Guy
01:32:35
If Skamania PUD isn't responsible under the Growth Management Act because it is a non-plannig county, meaning we as consumers can not file a Growth Management Act complaint- how do we complain as ratepayers if we have concerns about this process, this decision and the decisions leading up to this?
Joe Kear
01:33:26
The high connectivity fee (base rate) makes solar less feasible.

I’ve heard that these “smart” meters can reduce the efficacy of my COVID vaccination. Is there any truth to this?
Lesley Frana
01:37:10
Not to be rude, but why have this forum and then ask people to email their questions in
Public Utility Owner
01:37:46
RF on AMI Sensus meters (same SCPUD has already installed in Carson and Underwood water - Skamania PUD not in communication mode YET) These Sensus meters in Gresham were peaking at 227 radio microwave radiation 35 feet inside living room across in Oregon .. watch video of this posted yesterday on PUBLIC Facebook .. electricity is not a luxury, it's a necessity!

Why take the time to answer these customers questions with a non-answer? It’s taking just as much time as it would to answer straight out.
Joe Kear
01:38:57
Why can’t you answer questions now and later on the website too?
TinFoil-FlatEarther
01:39:58
I’ve heard One 2 minute conversation on a cell phone is equal to standing next to an RF meter for a year and a half, can you comment on that?
Public Utility Owner
01:40:21
All Q & A and replies need to be made public and posted online, Will commissioners post Q&A and replies?
TinFoil-FlatEarther
01:43:44
In the form of a question? Who are you, Alex Trebeck?
RJ Stryker
01:46:27
Won't this recording be available on the website? Why not answer some questions tonight as well?
Public Utility Owner
01:46:34
Intention is to sweep under carpet
Guy
01:48:12
Can we send questions to info@skamaniapud.com?
Public Utility Owner
01:48:27
