Today, the WV Public Service Commission issued an order setting public hearings in the PATH case.
Tell your friends and neighbors. If you think PATH is a bad idea, and you haven't intervened in the case, this is the time to come an speak your mind to the PSC and the power companies.
You will not get another chance.
Here's the schedule:
Tuesday, 9/22/2009, 12:30 pm & 6:30 pm & Wednesday 9/23/2009, 8:30 am in Shepherdstown, WV at Shepherd University, Frank Arts Center, 260 University Drive

The PSC only requires that this schedule be advertised as a legal ad in local newspapers. It is up to you to copy this schedule and post it everywhere in your county as soon as possible. Write letters to the editor. Tell everyone you know. Call your local radio station and get them to run your local information on the radio.
It is up to you. The PSC and the power companies don't want a lot of people at these hearings.
If you don't get the word out, no one else will.
Note: PATH will raise the electric bill of every customer in West Virginia, but the PSC is not holding hearings in every part of West Virginia. If you have friends or family living in Huntington or Wheeling or Beckley, call them and tell them that they should attend the nearest hearing to voice their opposition to paying for PATH. The power companies and the PSC think this is a local issue just for the areas directly affected by PATH. It is important to show them that everyone in the state opposes PATH, for lots of different reasons.
