PG&E Requests a 3rd Rate Hike
There is a third PG&E rate hike in the works. It is in addition to the $13.8 billion hike the California Public Utilities Commission granted the utility last month. And it is on top of a rate increase request of $2 billion PG&E wants to go into effect this coming March on an “interim basis” while the CPUC goes through the regulatory process to make it permanent.
The new rate request doesn’t directly raise rates — at least not for now. What it will cost a PG&E customer won’t be revealed until a filing is made sometime in 2024. What it does is seek permission to keep the Diablo Canyon Employee Retention program in place. Read more here.
The Elections department invites the public to observe
the preparation process for the March 5th Statewide Primary election, including
set up and testing of all equipment, as well as election night activities - www.edcgov.us/Government/Elections.
