Because for 90 years there was no requirements and were basically installed first and then built around. Replacing required countless issues. As result, new ordinance written

Oddball voltages are by customer demand/request

Find another 100 year old utility with 4+ million accounts. Your problem is while workers are doing their jobs, you feel you and yours should get special treatment

Every division in DWP has set number of workers and budget. You want more workers? Get Council to up rates to pay for new hires

All work is done in order, nobody gets special treatment. Because of problematic placements in the past, they now must be in the open. New construction forbids electric meters being on the rear

“Connecting” isn’tissue. New demand=new infrastructure equipment at thesubstation. That equipment must be constructed transported and installed. New main lines that have to be strung or put underground conduits new/replacement transformers installed along the way. New orders have to wait their turn.

To the uninformed, reservoir was already empty when she was hired. Federal mandate kept it offline

If running for office, don’t advertise your ignorance. Mayor has zero authority over DWP. practice is ability to nominate name to council who votes. By the way DWP is not part of the city. Separate self owned entity

Thank you for regurgitation of nonsense. Edison has 1000s miles of line in isolated landscape. Any fire has hours to grow. 99% of LADWP is urban downed lines reported in minutes

Only reason local lines have insulation is the micro possibility of falling lines. High voltage coming into city have zero. Since there is no ground, birds are safe

Because LADWP is NOT a public utility, state has no authority. This also explains why DWP can ignore PUC directives

Bureau of street lighting

LADWP does not handle any light on steel or cement pole

LADWP is non profit. They must buy what customers use. Billing is set from this cost plus set overhead. Inflation costs are passed on to customer

Sounds like a nuisance value claim. Throw money at us so you don’t have to go to court.

Info only, LADWP is not a public utility. If it were, state would have authority, which it doesn’t. It is a one of a kind hybrid that is self owned, not part of Los Angeles government

Knuckles?

They really don’t care

Actually, the only connection between LA DWP and sanitation is the billing back in the 50s city Council wanted LA DWP to be the bill collector.

Yes, since they have no connection to street sweepers. Sanitation or department of streets

DWP is nonprofit and must buy what customers use. Coal generation is still the cheapest

Not a DWP issue, contractor who connected lines responsible. Trash is Sanitation, not DWP

By the way, check my bio, I’m an expert on DWP billing

1st,NBC clip is 4 months old. 2nd DWP is nonprofit, they have to buy everything you use. If you listen to the news report, last rate hike due to this cost. 3rd sewer and trash are from sanitation not DWP. Sewer charge recalculates. Every July explaining why man in clip hadn’t seen that price before.

You go to a restaurant and order a meal. After you eat it all, you complain about the bill.
You know the cost KWH and when you turn on anything it uses power. Why are you complaining about your own actions

First thing is break the seal which makes water contaminated. Whatever the size water flushed to the sea. Drain, clean , flush and wait for inspection of new seal before refill. Weeks for each tank. Who catches the blame if there is only one fire

So move

ZERO ends your faucet

Which has nothing to do with the drinking water system

800 or 8,000 public opinion polls doesn’t matter
