Get Smart About 'Smart' Meters - Pt. 1 - Presentations
Channel: eon3
Date: 2011-05-24

On April 28, 2011, Southern California's first public smart meter forum was held in Santa Barbara. The panel was organized to include views from both sides, as well as the left and right, so the audience could fairly weigh all factors. Southern California Edison (SCE) was invited to participate in January and agreed to send a panelist and representatives. Just two days before the event, SCE pulled out after complaining about three of the panelists and the emcee. Attended by nearly 300, the free forum was presented as a public service by the nonpartisan SBTP http://www.santabarbarateaparty.com/
Speakers included Cindy Sage of Sage Associates; Josh Hart of StopSmartMeters.org; Lake County Supervisor Anthony Farrington; Mark Toney of TURN; Tyson Slocum of Public Citizen and Orlean Koehle,State President, Eagle Forum of California.
Please Note:  The views of the panelists, emcee and moderator do not necessarily reflect those of SBTP and vice versa.
