Make Your Voice Heard!
The final decision to approve or deny PG&E's Santa Cruz 115 kV Reinforcement Project will be made by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The Commission is headed by five non-elected commissioners who are appointed by the Governor and approved by the State Senate. It is vitally important that the public's voice be heard in this decision-making process!
We have created some guidelines on how to write an effective letter, however the most important thing is that you communicate with as many of these influencers as possible and let then know that you are concerned about this project and want them to scrutinize PG&E with all due diligence to come up with a less destructive alternative to this project.
You can send your comments and concerns about the project to the CPUC Commissioners, the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors, elected officials, and the Committee on Utilities and Commerce at the addresses below:

PG&E Corporation
PG&E is a private corporation headed up by a board of directors. These individuals are not responsible for the day to day running of the company, as such are not aware of the impact a relatively small project such as this is having on a community. It is our job to make sure they become aware of this project and its devastating effects on our community values.
