Smart Meters - Public Service Commission

the meter on one’s own house that transmits, or one on another house. There is a constant stream of pulses on
all wires throughout the house. The household wiring, as well as the power lines along the streets, are all turned
into unintentional antennas. The signal is not very powerful, but the antennas are huge and everywhere.
Jack came back up to eastern Washington a month later, but he had to camp in the back yard. The pulses
bother him even fifty feet (15 meters) from the house, with the power line 150 feet (50 meters) on the other side
of the house.
The house is rented. The couple decided not to bother complaining to the landlord and the utility company.
Even if they got the old meter back it would not help. There is no way to stop the pulses coming from the
outside. Instead, the couple will soon move away to an area without his menace. [Anon.]

My name is Diane Nagby and I and my pets are also a victim of the Smart Meter. Dizziness, ringing in my ears,
insomnia, nausea, rapid heart beat. I had none of these problems prior to the installation of the Smart Meter. I
came home from work and they had just finished installing the Smart Meter. That very night my animals
started acting agitated. There is a constant feeling of uneasiness in my household now and at night a loud
buzzing/humming noise takes place, which was never present prior to the installation of the Smart Meter. It is
just plain old common sense that should tell us any amount of radiation in our household is NOT going to be
good for us. A friend of mine that lives in Upland, California experienced a stroke just days after her Smart
Meter was installed. How many people have to die, have their homes burned down (because the Smart Meter
has been proven to be a fire hazard in some houses), get sick, watch their animals suffer, as I have, before we
stand up and say ENOUGH is ENOUGH.

Until moving to the current rental I did not have the problems I am getting. I work from home and did not get
constant exposure to a Smart Meter, as I did not permit one to be installed on my own property, and then after
it was sold I lived in an apartment building that refused the installation of Smart Meters.
Frankly when the electrical shocks in my body began at random I didn’t connect the dots to a smart Meter
issue. When my vision, recently corrected with a new eye glass prescription began to not focus at random times
I didn’t connect it to Smart Meters. Even without my glasses at random times I am unable to clear my vision,
as if I just woke from a very deep sleep and am still groggy or am drugged…nope, no drugs either.
The fogginess and random electrical shocks go away when I am away from this house. I just learned this
morning that there is a ‘stupid’ meter installed on my bedroom wall. I say stupid because proper studies were
not done to assure the safety of the equipment…made where…China! and we know how safety conscious that is.
My body is very sensitive to electrical fields, and I demand that CA which normally is so environmentally
conscious, take responsibility for these meters and put a stop to them. Make the electric companies and their
investors swallow the cost and not allowed to pass it on to customers. We didn’t ask for this fake improvement.

On Dec. 31st, 2010, approx. 22 smart meters were installed in our building. They are directly under our
apartment. On Jan. 26, 2011, my husband, while sleeping, suffered a tonic clonic seizure. All tests came out ok.
But he is now on seizure medication. However, I notice that his hands twitch at night when he is asleep. Then
more slowly, I began to feel a buzz in my feet that went up my legs and then twitching developed. Never in my
life have I had this sensation. While I am away and at work during the day, it goes away and I don’t have these
