Smart Meters - Public Service Commission

_________________________________________
I was switched on to a Smart Meter without my consent. ( a notice was sent out only) Since that time, I’ve had
issues with severe anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, headaches, buzzing and ringing in my ears…I couldn’t
account as to why I was feeling this way, until I finally read about the smart meters and what they are doing to
some of the population….I called my utility co.(salt river project in az.) and asked to speak to a supervisor
about this matter. He (Ben Celleck) said that they don’t cause these problems and that it’s SRP’s property and
they will deem what they will use. I told him “I’m the customer and I pay SRP for the service and they should
use what I request, not the other way around!”…..I kept insisting to have it changed out and stating it was my
right as a customer to have this request..but he keep telling me…”No, they will not change out the meter, but
we will come out and check it for any leakage of power.”….”I said I’m very sensitive with the EMF that it
produces and is causing my health problems.” I said. ” I don’t want SRP to just come out and check it, I just
want it to be replaced with the analog meter not the smart meter”…..He kept to his same story….”We will not
replace with the analog”…..When I got back home (11/2/11) from work, I had received a notice from SRP that
they had been out there to inspect my meter and stated they had found nothing wrong with my meter. D.M.

Since the smart meters were installed, I have difficulty breathing, have headaches which I never had, sleep
problems, balance problems, physical weakness, nausea, anxiety, depression, and worsening of health
conditions. I would like the analog meter back so I can feel normal again. D.D. Santa Cruz

I am having serious health issues since the meter was installed. And, not prior. My home has become toxic. I
want this meter removed immediately. I can not wait. This is an emergency. Either the utility company comes
out immediately and takes it off or I will resort to other measures. This is oppressive tyranny and an assault to
my mental and physical well being. M.C. Riverside CA

My family and I have been experiencing negative health effects since the smart meter was installed. I have had
ringing in my ears and my son has not slept a whole night since the meter was installed. He sleeps fine at his
daycare (analog meter) and he sleeps all night at his grandparent’s house (also analog meter).
I would like permission to have my analog meter replaced at no cost to me or my family. L.S. Los Angeles CA

Ever since the Smart Meter has been installed in my house I have suffered insomnia, constant headaches and
am forced to listen to the sound of electrical humming outside my bedroom. Do not ignore the fact that some
people are more sensitive to electricity than others. L.M. Santa Cruz

In May of 2010 they installed a RF Smart Meter. Between then and June 2011, I had made four trips to an ER
for heart palpitations, tinnitus, extreme fatigue with mental confusion and inability to sleep. On top of being
able to accomplish damn little due to the symptoms, the electric bills topped $200 per month when we didn’t
add an appliance or use more of what we had.
In each ambulance ride, the symptoms went away after 30 minutes out of this Smart Meter Neighborhood.
