A Glenoma Couple Has Filed A Lawsuit Against The Lewis County Public Utility District Seeking $13 Million In Damages In Response To A Plan To Install New, Advanced Metering Infrastructure For Roughly 30,000 Connections.

The Lawsuit, Filed By William And Alice Budd In Lewis County Superior Court On April 10, Asks For $3 Million In Compensatory Damages And An Additional $10 Million In Punitive Damages Due To “Egregious Dishonesty, Lack Of Transparency And Failure To Inform” Customers Of The “Real Motives” Of The Plan.

Per The Lawsuit, The $10 Million In Punitive Damages Would Be Placed In A Trust “Controlled LCPUD Customers, For The Benefit Of Customers” Who Have Experienced Harm From The Meters.
The Lawsuit Asks For An Immediate Injunction Against The Installation Of Future Meters In Lewis County “Until The LCPUD Can Prove That They Are Safe.”

In An [Electronic Message], A PUD Spokesperson Said The Agency Does Not Comment On Pending Litigation.

In A December Interview, David Plotz, PUD General Manager, Said The Program Has Been In The Works For Several Years.

“The Advent Of Smart Meters, They’ve Been Out For Some Time,” Plotz Said. “Many Other Utilities Have Already Put These In Place.”

According To The PUD, The Meters Allow Customers To Budget Their Energy Consumption And Receive Notifications When They Exceed Their Budgets, Which Could Point To Faulty Appliances Or Malfunctioning Equipment.

“They Will Lower Our Costs And They Will Provide Information That Isn’t Just More Accurate But Will Give Us More Detail, To Make Us Understand Where We Need To Build Resiliency, Where We Need To Improve The Infrastructure Of Lewis County,” Plotz Said. “So By Having That Data, We Can Make Better Decisions.”

According To The Lawsuit, None Of “The Alleged Benefits Listed On The Postcard Have Any Value To” The Budds.

In A Complaint, The Couple Alleged That They Have Developed Negative Health Effects Since The New Meter Was Installed “Sometime In Late 2023 Or Early 2024.”

Though The AMI Meters Use Radio Frequency, It Produces Small Amounts Of Radiation. AMI Meters Only Transmit For One And A Half Seconds Every Two To Four Hours. A Cordless Home Phone Generates 1,000 Times More Radio Frequency, While Cellphones Generate 10,000 Times More Exposure To Radio Frequency Than The New Meters, According To Previous Reporting By The Chronicle.

For Months, The PUD Has Sought To Soothe Concerns Among Some Lewis County Residents Over Perceived Negative Impacts. A Group Of Residents Has Used Different Venues To Voice Broad Concerns Over The Plan.

In November, Roughly 10 Community Members Voiced Frustration Over The Plan At A PUD Commissioners Meeting. By January, The Group Took Their Frustrations To A Three-Hour “Meet The Manager” Meeting At The PUD Office In Chehalis And Then To A Meeting Of The Lewis County Commissioners.

The New Meters Are Free To Customers, Though Residents Can Opt Out Of The Installation For A Monthly Fee That Covers Staff Costs To Manually Read The Meters. Installation Began In October And Is Expected To Be Completed Later This Year.

In Their Complaint, The Budds Said The Option To Turn Off The Radio Transceiver In The New Meter Did Not “Resolve The Conflict.” The Budds Also Declined An Offer To Disconnect From The Power Grid. In The Complaint, The Budds Allege The $25 Monthly Fee To Manually Read The Meters Equates To Extortion. (Editor Note: It’s Worth Saying That The Clustrmaps Page Showed Both These People Lived In Hawaii In The Past. Yet $25 A Month Is Extortion LMAO)

“Plaintiff Alice Budd Believes That Her Health Is Being Continually Affected By The Presence Of The Transmitting Electric Meter That Is Currently On Her House And That Time Is Of The Essence,” The Complaint Reads. “The Plaintiff Will Continue To Try To Come To A Meeting Of Minds With The Defendants As This Complaint Makes Its Way Through The Halls Of Justice.”

The Lawsuit Alleges The New Meters Could Be Part Of A “Worldwide Agenda” To Implement A Smart Grid, Which Could Serve As A “Trojan Horse” For Nefarious Acts.

“The Implementation Of Such A ‘Smart Grid’ Would Allow The Implementation Of A Social Credit System That Is Already Functioning In Communist China To The Detriment Of The Freedom Of The Chinese People Living There,” The Complaint Reads.

The Lawsuit Further Alleges The Planned Meter Refresh “Has Many Parallels To The COVID Vaccination Agenda.”
