 I, William B. Abrams, pursuant to section 1746 of title 28 of the United States Code, 

hereby declare under penalty of perjury that the following is true and correct to the best of my 

knowledge, information, and belief: 

 1. I am a claimant and a PG&E Fire Survivor who has engaged in this proceeding as a 

pro se party to promote and collaborate with core parties in good-faith towards a plan, PG&E Fire 

Victim Trust Agreement and to ensure prudent Trust oversight that provides just settlements for all 

claimants as well as adequate restructuring for Pacific Gas and Electric Corporation so our 

communities are safe from the growing risks of utility-caused wildfires. I have filed timely and valid 

damage claims as a victim of the 2017 PG&E Tubbs Fire. 

 2. I am a resident of Sonoma County and a ratepayer of Pacific Gas and Electric 

Company. 

 3. I submit this declaration in support of the “William B. Abrams Motion for 

Reconsideration and Relief from the Order Regarding Hearing on May 24, 2023” (the “Motion for 

Reconsideration”) filed concurrently herewith. 

 4. After the PG&E Fires of 2017, I felt compelled to engage as a party to certain 

proceedings at the California Public Utilities Commission to work collaboratively towards solutions 

that address wildfire mitigation and other utility/energy issues. Some of these proceedings are related 

to this case. All of my filed comments are in the public record through the Commission’s website. 

As an intervenor in these proceedings, I have received some compensation from Investor Owned 

Utilities including Pacific Gas and Electric Company. I have no financial interests in this case that 

are adverse to those of victims. I have no litigation financing or lines of credit tied to PG&E 

shareholders, bondholders or any other party in this case. I have not and do not intend to get any 

compensation for my involvement in this case other than through my claim and those claims of my 

family through the PG&E Fire Victim Trust. I have not engaged in activities to undermine the value 

of the Fire Victim Trust or to slow the Trust administration process. 

 5. I declare under penalty of perjury that, to the best of my knowledge and after 

reasonable inquiry, the foregoing is true and correct and that this declaration was executed at Santa 

Rosa, California on May 19, 2023.
