Message from TURN’s Executive Director Dear TURN Consumer Champion, salute each and every one of you for making 2015 a banner year for holding California utility and telecom companies accountable to their customers! Your contributions, letters, and testimonials, in partnership with the small, but dedicated, TURN staff, have won the following major victories in 2015: 1. Slammed the Brakes on the Electric Vehicle Gravy Train. Thanks to our new staff attorney Elise Torres, and energy analyst Eric Borden, we expect that California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) will have slashed the number of electric vehicle charging stations proposed by Edison, SDG&E and PG&E from 60,000 to around 10,000, slashing hundreds of millions of dollars of cost to California utility customers. 2. Stopped CPUC Blank Checks for Public Safety. Thanks to legal director Tom Long, and staff attorney Marcel Hawiger, the CPUC is beginning to hold PG&E and Sempra accountable so that every dollar they receive for gas pipeline safety actually gets spent on pipeline safety. Thanks to years of work by telecom policy director Regina Costa, the CPUC will finally conduct an investigation into the reliability of the 911 emergency phone system. And General Counsel Bob Finkelstein led the team that slashed SoCal Edison’s rates by over $3 million! 3. Protected Your Right to Affordable Home Phones. We know from your membership surveys that the majority of TURN members rely on home telephone service. Thanks to staff attorney Christine Mailloux, the CPUC has capped how much AT&T can jack up your rates through 2020. 4. Unlocked Free Solar Energy in Your Own Backyard. Thanks to communications director Mindy Spatt, TURN joined forces with Assemblymember Patty López to win passage of AB 1448 that gives all California residents the right to use clotheslines, even if they live in apartments or in communities with Home Owner Associations. 5. Turned on the Spotlight on CPUC Accountability. Thanks to staff attorney Matt Freedman, TURN allied with Senators Mark Leno and Ben Hueso to win unanimous passage of SB 660 to end secret meetings between utility companies and the CPUC. We didn’t let the Governor’s veto stop us, and we have introduced the bill (now SB 215) again.

6. TURN staff attorney Hayley Goodson and organizing director Ana Montes worked to improve low-income assistance programs including CARE and LifeLine, assuring access to essential lights, heat and phone service to millions of eligible Californians. We will need your involvement in TURN more than ever in 2016 to defeat the efforts of megacorporations to drain every last dollar out of your pocketbooks. Major TURN campaigns to champion the rights of California consumers include: • Stopping AT&T from Cutting the Cord on Home Phone Service: TURN is leading a coalition of labor, small business, senior and consumer advocates to fight AB 2395, a bill that endangers your ability to reach 911 and your right to choose landline telephone service (and DSL) if you want it. This bill allows AT&T to abandon copper telephone networks anywhere and any place after 2020. • Challenging Grid Expansion — What’s in it for Warren Buffet? TURN is leading groups to protect state ratepayers from rate increases that may come as a result of the PacifiCorp (owned by Buffet’s Berkshire Hathaway) campaign to expand the California Independent System Operator into a grid manager for the Western U.S. • Fighting Unnecessary Increases in Your Monthly Bills: TURN is leading the fight to make sure that SoCal Gas consumers aren’t hit with bills from the Aliso Canyon gas leak disaster, and that Northern and Central California customers are not hit with a $2.4 billion PG&E rate increase. Each year we fight off dozens of demands for higher rates from all the major utilities, and each year we save you millions of dollars. We appreciate each and every one of you who has made a membership contribution or special donation to TURN throughout the years. I also want to thank our administrative staff, Richard Perez and Haley de Genova, who process your donations and answer your calls. I invite you to consider additional ways that a growing number of TURN members have chosen to support our campaigns for corporate accountability and consumer rights, including our monthly donor program and planned giving programs.

2014-2015 ANNUAL REPORT
ANNUAL LEGISLATIVE AWARDS DINNER TURN celebrated our 2015 legislative successes at Mayahuel restaurant in Sacramento on January 13, 2016. Pictured are Executive Director Mark Toney and staff attorney Matt Freedman with awardees Senator Ben Hueso and Senator Mark Leno, who succeeded in winning widespread, bipartisan support and legislative approval of TURN’s CPUC reform bill, SB 660. Assemblymember Patty López received the Backyard Solar Award for expanding solar rights in California by finally banning the ban on clotheslines that HOAs and apartment buildings have enforced against conservation-minded residents for years.
cision that requires Sempra shareholders to pay for the re-tests. TURN protested utility lobbying in the PG&E Gas Transmission and Storage rate case as well, where PG&E took a corrupt approach to its outrageous demands for higher gas rates, secretly (and successfully) demanding that it be allowed to hand-pick the CPUC judge that would hear the case. After the improper communications between the CPUC and PG&E were revealed, TURN won a 1-year ban on PG&E “ex parte” communications – one we hope to make permanent with SB 215 (last session’s SB 660) – as well as a $1 million penalty at the outset, with hundreds of millions more possible in the future. “Safety and cost issues are inextricably intertwined,” said Long. “Utility companies have a strong financial incentive to forecast excessive revenue needs in rate cases. But, despite utility claims to the contrary, giving them more ratepayer money doesn’t necessarily get consumers the safety they want. Regulators must hold utilities accountable for the risk reductions they promise, as cost-effectively as possible.”

ith rate increases, ever-growing phone bills, and utility companies constantly trying to get ratepayers to foot the bill for their mistakes, the prospect of maintaining access to safe, affordable, and reliable utility and telecom service is becoming out of reach for many Californians. That’s why now more then ever, law-makers and utility regulators need to hear from consumers. In 2015, TURN Organizing Director Ana Montes was part of a delegation of 13 consumer advocates that traveled to Washington, D.C. to advocate before members of Congress and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for affordable and reliable access to phone and Internet services. The delegation brought powerful testimonies of TURN members, LifeLine subscribers, and delegates that represent families of the incarcerated to speak before a crowd of over 100 Congressional staff and allies. “The stories of real consumers are what will move policymakers and drive change,” said Montes. “At the CPUC and in Washington, TURN made sure their voices were heard.” Shortly afterwards the FCC agreed with the need to expand the Universal Services Program to include Broadband Access. TURN stands as a bridge in not only informing consumers across the state about their rights, but also educating and empowering
customers to demand safe, and affordable service. We provide platforms for Californians to voice their concerns through public hearings, community meetings, and individual complaints. TURN has organized consumers to speak out at CPUC Forums, and public hearings, participated in panels with like-minded consumer advocacy ORGANIZING DIRECTOR groups, and held community presentations ANA MONTES across California, educating consumers about their rights, listening to their concerns, and giving them a voice before law-makers. The topics of this year’s presentations and discussions included: • Net neutrality and privacy rights; • Expansion of the low-income LifeLine program; • Building community support for the California Teleconnect Fund. TURN works directly with consumers that are at risk of, or have already had their power shut off by utility companies; our Consumer Advocates worked on over 1,000 individual complaints from ratepayers across the state in the last 18 months alone.

kyrocketing phone rates and poor service quality also impact customers’ safety. Without a working phone in an emergency, power outage or other disaster, vulnerable consumers have no way of getting assistance when they need it. That’s one reason for state and national universal service policies that make essential phone service affordable, STAFF ATTORNEY and service standards that require phone companies to provide reliable connec- CHRISTINE MAILLOUX tions customers can depend on. But AT&T doesn’t want to be held to any standards at all, especially where rates for basic service are concerned. In fact, TURN heard so many complaints from customers about skyrocketing AT&T bills that we were forced to bring a formal California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) complaint ourselves, alleging rates were so high they were unreasonable. AT&T tried to get our complaint dismissed, but TURN would not back down. AT&T was forced to agree to a settlement that resulted in significant new consumer protections, including enhanced benefits for low-income customers who qualify for LifeLine, and people with disabilities, represented by TURN ally the Center for Accessible Technology. The settlement limits rate increases for the millions of Californians who rely on AT&T for basic or LifeLine services. Between 2009-2014 AT&T had increased its basic service prices by over $10, and measured rate services $12.38. What’s worse, there was no end in sight. TURN won four years of relatively stable and predictable rates, with increases capped at only three dollars. Hundreds of thousands of AT&T LifeLine customers will directly benefit from this settlement, as will millions more who subscribe to basic service. “The Commission’s hands-off approach simply wasn’t working for consumers,” said TURN staff attorney Christine Mailloux. “It was a huge victory to be able to claw back these protections, and stop the unreasonable price spikes AT&T wanted.”
rom the minute corporate giant Comcast announced it’s desire to acquire Time Warner Cable in 2014, TURN stood as a staunch opponent of the merger, and fought a bruising year-long battle to prevent the phone behemoth Comcast from becoming even more powerful. “The merger would have given Comcast control of over 84% of the major meTELECOMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR dia markets in California, and by conREGINA COSTA trolling the means of distribution, given Comcast a monopoly over the delivery of content, the prices paid by customers, and the payments to content creators,” said TURN telecommunications director Regina Costa. “We knew it had to be stopped.” With our allies in the “Stop Mega Comcast Coalition,” including The Consumer Federation of America, Consumer’s Union, Media Alliance, The Greenlining Institute, Consumer Action and many others, we alerted the public to the danger. In the end, a major victory was scored for Californians throughout the state as, under attack on numerous fronts, the merger spectacularly unraveled. Consumers had their voices heard, and a potential crisis for consumers was averted. Costa also works alongside major national consumer advocates as chair of the Telecom Committee of NASUCA, the National Association of Utility Consumer Advocates’ Telecom committee. Through NASUCA Costa brings our efforts to maintain affordable rates and universal service guarantees to a national stage. In 2014-15, TURN worked at the FCC to address phone companies abandoning copper networks, the need for sufficient back-up battery power for telecom networks, and protecting the rights of LifeLine customers and rural communities. With solid arguments and a strong alliance, the FCC heard us, and ruled positively on several key demands.
“Don’t Let Them Take Away My Landline”

hat’s what one customer said recently when she found out that AT&T wants to abandon its copper network altogether. TURN is mobilizing all our resources to make sure AT&T does not win approval of AB 2395 (Low, D-San Jose), which would eliminate customer choice- and allow AT&T to eliminate the reliable copper lines that millions of families, seniors, businesses, rural communities and emergency personnel rely on.

ENERGY CASE HIGHLIGHTS
MORE GREEN FOR YOUR GREEN
C
alifornia is a national leader in policies designed to prevent global warming and reduce dangerous emissions. But profit-driven utilities should not be allowed to use our state’s commitment to green energy to push though expensive, experimental new schemes simply by slapping a green label on them. That’s why the two newest members of TURN’s energy team, Elise Torres and Eric Borden, teamed up to challenge bloated utility proposals for thousands of electric vehicle charging stations. The proposals put the cart before the horse in more ways than one, demanding customer funding up front for the untested charging stations without sufficiently demonstrating their value. Currently, only a small percentage of wealthier Californians own electric vehicles, which means only a small percentage of customers would use the charging stations that Edison, PG&E and SDG&E wanted to make ubiquitous. “TURN wanted to lower customer costs and maximize benefits at the same time,” said TURN energy policy analyst Eric Borden.“There’s no point in putting charging stations into communities where consumers don’t drive EVs, unless rebates and subsidies are designed to increase affordability and adoption.” TURN believed the customer-funded programs could provide more benefits to low-income customers whose neighborhoods often face heightened risks from pollution. But we also wanted to
make sure any charging stations that were put into vulnerable communities were likely to actually be used. Utilities are all too happy to invest customers’ money and receive guaranteed returns regardless of the results if TURN and other consumer groups are not vigilant. TURN recommended that utiliSTAFF ATTORNEY ties take a phased approach, startELISE TORRES ing with smaller pilots targeting underserved markets and locations. The CPUC agreed to many of the cutbacks we recommended in the size and cost of programs proposed by SDG&E and Edison. In addition, the CPUC agreed to require that owners of apartment buildings, workplaces and other places where the stations are installed contribute to their cost, limiting the risks to customers. “Too many of the benefits of the utility proposals were speculative, which is why smaller scale pilot programs were needed to test assumptions and collect data,” said TURN staff attorney Elise Torres. “TURN not only won substantial reductions to the customer costs, we also won changes making it more likely the programs will be successful so that consumers will see benefits commensurate with those costs.” Elise and Eric are currently demanding comparable cost reductions and program improvements for the inflated PG&E charging station proposal, which the CPUC has already ordered PG&E to scale back.

KEEPING PIPELINE COSTS REASONABLE

n a case determining PG&E’s spending for vital natural gas pipeline capacity, TURN won policies that will increase reliability and reduce ratepayer costs. One of the issues at stake was whether PG&E should continue to purchase capacity for the all the small gas customers in its service territory, including those served by alternate unregulated companies, or only for its own customers. TURN crunched the numbers, and determined that keeping adequate, predictable interstate pipeline capacity for core load was key for reliability. The CPUC agreed with TURN that it was in consumers’ best interests to order PG&E to be responsible for purchasing capacity for all customers, while reducing the subsidy that utility customers end up paying for those who chose unregulated alternate providers. This case also set the all-important amount of interstate pipeline capacity that PG&E should purchase for core customers. TURN successfully advocated for a reduction in PG&E’s plan-
ning range that will reduce annual pipeline capacity costs. While the exact amount varies annually according to contract costs, PG&E spent approximately $166 million on pipeline reservation costs in 2013. Thanks to TURN the Commission adopted a range lower than PG&E wanted for the next three years, resulting in annual cost savings of about $20 million STAFF ATTORNEY per year. MARCEL HAWIGER “The policies won in this case will have a positive impact on the reliability of gas service, and also put customers less at risk for price spikes,” said TURN staff attorney Marcel Hawiger. “This is one case where the Commission did the right thing, and customers will reap the combination of results we always strive for, lower bills and better service.”

EFFECTIVE LOW-INCOME PROGRAMS BENEFIT EVERYONE
T
he small public purpose charges included in our monthly energy bills go toward big goals. At best, these programs reduce statewide usage, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions and the risk of energy shortages that drive up prices. Programs including CaliSTAFF ATTORNEY HAYLEY GOODSON fornia Affordable Rates for Energy (CARE) and the Energy Savings Assistance Program (ESAP) also provide vital assistance to families struggling to pay their monthly bills and find ways to lower them. Affordable rates are an important way to improve the health, comfort and safety of low-income consumers, who are often threatened with dangerous and deadly utility shut-offs. On average about 75,000 California households face cold, dark homes every month. Those shut-offs can trigger all kinds of financial impacts, including service reinstatement costs, food spoilage and replacement costs, and even eviction. In the worst cases, use of candles or other unsafe heating or lighting methods has led to fires. TURN staff attorney Hayley Goodson spearheads TURN’s efforts to hold utilities accountable for running these customer-funded efficiency programs in the most effective, low-cost way possible. “Struggling consumers should be able to get help,” said TURN staff attorney Hayley Goodson. “That means energy efficiency programs should be easy for eligible customers to access.” Goodson worked with other consumer groups to streamline CARE availability for customers already income-verified for other programs. This categorical eligibility provides efficiency for the customer while also saving on administrative costs. In addition, Goodson advocated for expansion of a pilot program providing in-language education, outreach, assistance, and advocacy to limited English proficient utility customers via a network of community groups. “The CHANGES program will bring the benefits of these public purpose programs to more eligible customers,” said Goodson. Moreover, CHANGES equips limited English proficient consumers with advocates who can help them interact with the utility over billing disputes, payment arrangements, avoidance of service disconnections, or restoration of service.
CUTTING THROUGH UTILITY PADDING AND PROFITEERING
U
tilities are accustomed to filling their rate case requests with millions in excessive spending that would do more to boost profits than safety, reliability, or anything that would benefit customers. They also can ignore developments that, if revealed, would help the CPUC recognize an opportunity to lower rates. SoCal Edison’s 2015 general rate case had examples of both. Thanks to TURN’s scrutiny, the GENERAL COUNSEL BOB FINKELSTEIN CPUC not only scaled back the funding request, but also identified tax benefits that Edison had steered to its shareholders but would now help reduce rates. TURN’s efforts challenged Edison cost forecasts throughout its operations, from an ambitious but exorbitant pole replacement program to Edison’s practice of hiring high-priced “outside counsel” to bolster the dozens of lawyers already on its payroll. TURN successfully challenged Edison’s proposal to pay its corporate board out of rates, or to have customers bear costs of executive bonuses and rewards tied to high stock prices. TURN also caught Edison overreaching on opt-out meter reading, hydro generation costs, streetlight replacements, peaker plants and many other issues. “Edison had padded everything with millions in unnecessary costs,” said TURN General Counsel Bob Finkelstein. While the CPUC’s final decision was far too generous with Edison, TURN’s efforts produced getting $330 million shaved off of the first year’s increases, with similar reductions in 2016 and 2017 as well. “The end result here was the rare instance where Edison’s rates actually went down,” said Finkelstein. “Much of that is tied to the removal of SONGS costs and favorable tax changes, but TURN’s successful efforts are a big part of why consumers won’t see the level of rate and bill increases Edison tried to ram through in previous rate cases.”

MEDIA HIGHLIGHTS
URN staff attorney Matt Freedman spent much of the past three years fighting utility proposals to replace the tiered rate structure with a structure that includes large fixed charges and relatively flat usage-based rates. Consumer and environmental groups were united in opposing utility proposals. The tiered rates supported by TURN and Freedman can keep essential amounts of electricity affordable, provide greater quantities of inexpensive energy to customers located in hot, inland areas and reward conservation. TURN’s research showed that the utility proposals would increase electric bills for almost three-quarters of residential customers. TURN also opposed efforts by the CPUC President Michael Picker to automatically switch all residential customers into time-based rate structures. The switch could dramatically raise summer bills for many people, especially in hotter areas where air conditioning is a necessity. Freedman’s advocacy helped defeat fixed charges for the time being, increased the low-income discount for eligible families, and preserved many key elements of the tiered rate structure. Moreover, he raised serious concerns about the economic and environmental impact of timebased rates that will defer involuntary switching of residential customers until at least 2019.
The CPUC has been determined to make the switch despite public opposition, and, in a contentious set of decisions, the scheme was jammed through at the last minute. TURN staff attorney Matt Freedman said, “although STAFF ATTORNEY our coalition failed to MATT FREEDMAN stop the forced switching of customers to punitive time-based rates, we won significant concessions that will soften the blow, and delay implementation until 2019 or later.” TURN advocated for keeping baseline rates affordable, flattening the tiers, providing customers with the choice of rate plans, preserving the maximum low-income discounts, and deferring any new fixed charges. “Although the CPUC decision opens the door to fixed charges, they were not approved and TURN will have additional opportunities to fight against them,” Freedman said. In addition, TURN won a 3-tier structure through the creation of a super-user charge on energy hogs. TURN also won more generous discounts for customers who qualify for low-income CARE and FERA rates.

CUSTOMER CONCERNS GRAB HEADLINES
A
s scandals unfolded around the CPUC’s cozy relationships with P&GE and SoCal Edison, TURN was frequently in the news, keeping the focus on consumers’ right to safe reliable service, and protecting them from the costs of utility mismanagement and corruption. With our long-standing concerns about President Peevey’s close ties to utilities taking center stage, communications director Mindy Spatt was frequently called on to provide reporters with historical materials on Peevey’s long reign of terror at the CPUC. TURN exposed whistleblower claims about Peevey’s bias toward an unneeded power plant in Otay Mesa plant, winning coverage in the LA Times and San Diego Union Tribune. TURN’s claims about Peevey’s bias in that case were first covered in the same newspapers in 2003. TURN’s demand for $68 million in refunds due to the back door deal Peevey made for “incentive” payments to PG&E were covered by several media outlets, including KQED San Francisco and California Energy Markets. In that case as well, the refund demands were not the first time we’d approached the me-
dia on the issue. TURN had complained loudly about the “incentive” program being basically a slush fund for years. “TURN not only provides comments, we provide perspective” said Spatt. “Effective media advocacy is key to holding utilities accountable for their mistakes, which impact our safety, our rates, our lives.” COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR TURN staff members were quoted regMINDY SPATT ularly on numerous high-profile energy issues, from the CPUC’s flawed rate re-design to the gas storage problems revealed by the Aliso Canyon leak. Executive director Mark Toney traveled to CPUC hearings statewide, and his comments were featured in news outlets throughout California, including ABC KGTV 10 San Diego, KPBS public radio, Fresno Bee, KTVU Oakland and NBC 11 San Jose. Spatt is also responsible for TURN’s online communications and newsletter, which allow us to keep connected with our members and supporters throughout the state.

any organizations today have opted to connect with their supporters by sending them straight to an answering machine. Call us old fashioned, but TURN values the importance of speaking directly to the community, and listening to your concerns — that’s why TURN has a live person, Administrative/Legal Assistant Haley de Genova, at our phone, ready to answer and direct calls eight hours a day, five days a week. TURN relies on hearing from our members from all over the state to help us keep a finger on the pulse CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER of what issues people are having with their utility and telecom providers. Member support is crucial to RICHARD PEREZ TURN’s mission and success, which is why TURN’s admin team makes it a top priority to direct members to the resources that they need. Keeping our busy office running smoothly is also key to making sure our work has the maximum impact in the media, at the CPUC and federally. TURN’s administrative team of two does just that, and also supports the work of our organizing communications and development team. “We maximize our staff’s efforts, and your donations, by making sure no valuable time or money is wasted on mis-steps or mistakes,” said Chief Financial Officer Richard Perez, who continued to find new ways to save money this year. In 2015, de Genova and Perez filed over 200 pleadings on consumers’ behalf with the CPUC, and processed over 20,000 transactions from our members, making sure every penny was booked properly and that you received your receipts in a timely manner. As the backbone of our organization, they play an essential role in all of our successes. ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT HALEY DE GENOVA
