Smart Meters - Public Service Commission

he had to speak to his supervisor. He came back and said , “Well I can tell you this, once they are installed, they
aren’t coming off!” I explained that I could hear the pounding at that moment and that they were in the
process of installation and still could be stopped. I was told that nothing could be done.
Since the installation, my heart has been in fibrolation daily & my heart rate & blood pressure are elevated.
Our granddaughter’s bed in her room is on the same wall as the Smart Meters. She has suddenly developed
insomnia & is doing poorly in school. Recently, staying at a hotel she had no trouble sleeping through the
nights.
Since installation, our high-speed internet connection has slowed, been interrupted often, dialing out we have
static on the phone lines, similar to taking a cordless phone too near a microwave oven in use. Even our Wii
reception has been slower & multiple interupts during each episode of Netflix–not interrupted prior, all since
the installation.

My family has suffered since moving to this house (our old house did not have a smart meter). We have trouble
sleeping. Headaches. Our son experiences nosebleeds and attention problems. My Mother feels that her health
has declined in many aspects since the installation of her meter (she lives next door). We all have noticed our
immune systems are weaker. The biggest complaint is difficulty sleeping.

When the SmartMeters were put in my neighborhood, I and others had sleep problems. We did not know that
the SMeters were installed on the neighbors’ homes as we did not have any SMeters. I have had to sleep in a
heavily shielded area to get more than a couple of hours of sleep. I have also had pain in my sinuses and
pressure in my face, and increased bleeding episodes.
I do not want an SMeter of any kind. An injury 6 years ago left me hypersensitive to the electromagnetic fields
these and other devices emit. I had a lot of pain when appliances with switching power supplies were plugged
in (like my computer). A doctor suggested I buy filters for this. That worked.
Please help me and others. I have since looked into the research. This hypersensitivity is caused by overexposure.
Wireless and the high frequencies produced by switching power supplies affects many people. There
are 1000′s of red flags in the research. Please help stop this criminal use of compulsory technology.

Within 5 hours of having a smart meter installed on my apartment building I developed a severe band-like
headache. I did not know what a smart meter was when the man with the hard hat knocked on my door to tell
me that my power would be turned off for about 10 minutes. I thought nothing of it. The headache persisted
through the night and was unresponsive to medication. The next morning I also experienced nausea and began
to think that I was coming down with the flu. However, when I left my apartment and went to another city (no
meters) my symptoms cleared up. I was perplexed when they returned that evening after I returned home. This
pattern continued for the next 3 days: headaches, nausea, some heart palpitations, and feelings of irritability
and confusion — all of which resolved when I left Burbank and went into LA City. After 5 days I could no longer
tolerate the symptoms and left my home of 23 years, to live out of my car and sleep in the homes of friends and
family to avoid the unbearable health issues.
I am disabled and, try as I might, I have been unable to find subsidized housing in an area that is free of
meters. I am exhausted and despair at what my future holds. I have told Burbank Water and Power about my
problems. A board member told me to move out of Burbank. I contacted the CPUC and was told that they have
