“Mr, Barnett this Is James Aucremanne Public Service Commission at Charleston West Vlrglnla, I was returning your phone call, 1 know that you’ve talked to Mr. Bakker severed times, unfortunately there not much we can do for you on your extension. Mr. ternuto is willing to let you go crossed the land but the utilities are not allowed to go across private property. So we’re going to set your meter stake next to Mr. Cernuto. And if you want to install your line, and get easements from Mr. Cernuto and present them to the district, than they will install your meter and then you can have water service. I wish things could be better. But that’s the only way you’re going to get water setvice at this point. Thanks very much and have 3 great day”. 2008-09-22 It48 >> 304 340 0325 P 5/14 ‘T)L I “T .II

Reference: -formal Complaint Glen WhitelTrap Hlll Public-Service District Mainline Extension or ”self-help” Extension

Dear Chairman Michael A. Albert

We request a 2 inch mainline extension or a “self-help” extension from the Glen Whitenrap Hill Public-Service District. Pursuant to Public Service Commission of West Virginia rule 5.5, This extcn$ion would run from their 12 inch water main at the comer of Mr.Cernuto’s property where his current meter is located. The extension would run approximately 2000 feet through his property, to Pittman Road/Caunty Road 17/6 a 3 mile long publlc right of way road, that Is maintained yearly by the West Virginia, Department Of Hlghways. (P.S.C. Rule 5.5.)

Mr. Cernuto would be required to pay all the casts to tap in at the new mainline extension, and they would attach hls meter at their new 700 feet utillty Alght-Of-Way near his house, (P.S.C. Rule 5.4. b. 1

This would allow me to run a long service line approximately 200-300feet from my residence, to the new main line extension alongside Pittman RoadlCounty Road 17/6 a public right-of-way road, where the PSD would attach their water meter. , (P.S.C. Rule 5.4.b.)

Mr. Buddy Gray, the contractor and owner of Gray’s Water and Sewage, gave us an estimate that he could do the work for approximately $4 a foot this would include all cost for 2 inch PVC pipe and labor, 4x2000 feat = total CQS~o f $8.000. He has done a lot of work far the P.S.D, over the years and he has constructed a lot of mainline extensions across private property.

Any right-ef-way or easement is absolutely no problem, because all of the 2Mx3 feet of the new mainline extension will go through Mr. Cernuto’s property. Between Mr, ternuto and me, at the appropriate time as required, we will obtain and turn over the appropriate Right-of-wayor easements to the PSD, (The new extension will $taw at the P.s.5.’~ 12 inch mafn and go to the Cernuto’r residence 700 feet of new utlllty Right-Of-Way and then run, 1300 feet frem Cernuto’s residence to 2008-09-22 11;48 >> 304 340 0325 P 6/14

I attended the Glen White/Trap Hlll PSD'5 monthly meeting. All three board members were present. During the meeting, I asked Daniel R. Shorts, the senlor project manager in charge of the $4.2 million water improvement project. "Did anyone conduct a feasibility study fpr the 4.2 milliun dollar water improvement project?*

He said yes there was, SO I asked him If he could obtain me a copy of the study, He said he would see what he could do. Mr. 5hot-k explainad to the board members what a feasiblllty study was.

The study could have shown If there were any better routes that could have served more current and future customers. Instead of following the old pipeline that was CQriStructed50 to 60 years ago.

1 asked the board members when they would connett the metered spigot they promised at the December 11,2007 board meeting.

Mr. beMitam, meof the member$, stated that they were not going to hook me up and give me water sewice and stated," because you're just going to sue me anyway."

On February 12,2008, Mr. MIke Cernuto and I submitted a written request to Glen Whitelfrap Mill PSD's for a 2000 feet malnllne extension.

This is the -0iMon that I discussed with Mr. Ron Dlllon back in early spring of 2006, the timeframe when he was dotng all the coordination for his current water improvement project, that he apparently left me out Df, and any planning for water service.

This option will allow me to run a long service line 200 feet, st my Dwn expense and tap in for water service.

This is a better option and more realistic option, then the only option that the PSD gave me Which was to run a water line 3200 feet down Pittman toad at my own expanse df$50,000.

Mr. Okey Harvey, one of the board members, asked me a question, which was, do you want water service, are do you want B flght? He gave me the name and telephone number of a contractor, Mr.

Buddy Crav and he told me to call him and asked him for an estimate, what an -k, t he w Hell for ovw 5- 2008-09-22 It49 >> 304 340 0325 P 12/14

Mr. Diflon after i discussed the above option with personnel fmm the Public Senrice Commission of West Virginia. t call your office and informed you that Mr. Cernuto and I could not continue the process for requestlng service without a written itemized estlmatt of enst for the mainline extension.

You told me that you could not run a mainline extension across private property in accordance with the P.S.C. rule 5.5 and you were told by Public Service Cornrnlssion personnel that you had to use public road right-of-ways. And that you wwld only agree ta the 3200 feet, Pittman Road optitjh.

this is what P.S.C. Role 5,5,d, states and we quote, "€wryeffort shall be made by a utility tcl install its distribution maln In the public road rlghtsf-way or in a utility right-of-way abutting the public road right-of-way."

You are currently working on a $4'2 mittion water improvement project, and if you took on the map, you can see that you have made no effott In running your distribution main anywhere! Rear a public road right-of-way.

it appears that you have totally disregarded P.S.C. Role 5.5.d. and you are runnlng your new distribution main alongside the old distribution main that was constructed 50 to 60 year ago, with both running into the wilderness, instead of running It anywhere near a public road right-of-ways, The pipeline to nowhere."

It is $0 obviously that you are making wety e%rt to stall and delay any water service fur the Barnett family. And you are demanding that the only option that you would agree to Is the one that would put the greatest financial burden on the Barnett family.

We have 3 letter dated January 1#,fOO8, from Beaver Coal and land Company that states, that they do not intend to do any developing on Pittrnan Road.

You taid me at the February 12, 2008, board meeting, that the part for the metered spigot option was In. On Friday February 15,2008, on the telephone I asked you if the metered splgot option was steei an optfon and you told me it was, and that you wanted to get me water service, then what are you wafting for connect the metered spigot now today immediately, or wlll you continue to delay,

We request a 2 inch mainline extension or a %&-help"extenslon. Whatever terminology YOU Want to use to call It, pursuant to Public Service ComrnlQslon of West Virginla rule' 5.5.

Mr, Cernuto would be able to tap in to your new maintine extension, at his house and you could attach his meter at his house, instead of out in the wilderness where yuur meter wader has to walk 30 to 40 minutes one way, and worry about snakes and other creatums in route tu read hi$ water meter.

Mr. Buddy Gray, the contractor and owner of Gray's water and sewage, gave us an estimate that he could do the work far approximately $4 a foot this would Include all cost for 2 Inch WC pipe and labor, I

Any ri@t-Df-way or easement is abwlutely MI problem, because all of the 2oMJ feet new mainline extension will go thmueh Mr. Cemutb's property. Between Mr, Csrnuto and me, at the appropriate tlme as required, we will obtain and turn over the irppwprlate rlght-of-way or easements to the PSD.

This would allow Mr. David Barnett to nm 3 iong servlca line approximately 200 fcet from his restdence, to the new main line extension alongside Piman road/County Road 27/6 a public right-of- way mud, where the PSI) would attach their water meter.

(7) General provisions, states "In pmvidlng an alternative plan for water rndn extenslons a utlllty may not dtscrlminate between customers who service requirements are! slrnilar." (There arc similar malnllne extensions running throughout the P.S.D. and the state.) Whv is the PSE)iied the ahvtmlon when t-mers a re nlcklna UD the cost rn- the PSD mandatarv

It is $0obviously that they are making every effort to stall and delay any water service for me and my family. And they are demanding that the only option that they would agree to is the one that would put the greatest financial burden on my family.

This request for water service from the Glen Whitenrap Hill Public-Service District has been eoing on much too long; if this matter cannot be resolved wfthin the next couple days please give this request to a P.5.C. Admlnlstratlve law judge for resolution.

Sincerely, w- David E. Barnett
