BILL NUMBER:  SB 1467
  VETOED	DATE: 09/29/2010




To the Members of the California State Senate:

I am returning Senate Bill 1467 without my signature.

In addition to making several non-substantive changes to the Public
Utilities Code and the Public Resources Code, this bill requires the
Chairperson of the State Energy Resources Conservation and
Development Commission (Commission) to appear annually before the
Senate Committee on Energy, Utilities and Communications and the
Assembly Committee on Utilities and Commerce to report on the
activities of the Commission.

This bill is unnecessary.  During my Administration, the Chairperson
of the Commission has always been accessible to the Legislature and,
in fact, has appeared on several occasions this year before both
committees to report on Energy Commission activities.

If the Legislature would like to invite the Chairperson to appear
before their committees, they simply need to call.  In this bill's
absence, I am ordering DGS to check all phone lines between the
Legislature and the Chairperson's office to make sure they are in
good working order.

Sincerely,



Arnold Schwarzenegger
