Code §24-2-7 into the Actions of WVAWC in Reacting to the January 9, 2014 Chemical Spill. Notice of Hearing On January 9, 2014, Freedom Industries, Inc., suffered a significant leak in its storage tank facility allowing the unpermitted discharge of crude 4methylcyclohexane methanol (MCHM) into the Elk River. This leak occurred about one mile from the raw water intake of the West Virginia-American Water Company (WVAWC). That MCHM found its way into\ the raw water intake structure and ultimately into the finished water supply of WVAWC produced at its Kanawha Valley Treatment Plant. The finished water went into the WVAWC transmission, distribution, and storage systems and into the systems of some sale for resale customers of WVAWC. After detection of the MCHM, WVAWC entered a “do not use” notice for WVAWC customers that ran from January 9, 2014, and was lifted by zones throughout the WVAWC Kanawha Valley System beginning January 13, 2014. While it was in place, the do not use notice impacted all or a portion of over 100,000 customers of WVAWC served from the Kanawha Valley System. By Order entered May 21, 2014, the Commission initiated a general investigation to determine whether at the time of and under the circumstances that existed with the spill, did the actions of WVAWC in reacting to the spill and the presence of MCHM in its raw water or finished water supply constitute unreasonable or inadequate practices, acts, or services as provided under the provisions of W.Va. Code §24-2-7 or other pertinent provision of Chapter 24 of the West Virginia Code. It should be understood that the purpose of this general investigation is limited to the WVAWC reaction to the spill and is not intended to re-litigate past certificate proceedings regarding the intake, treatment, storage, distribution, or transmission plant that was in place in the Kanawha Valley System. Additionally. the Commission is not authorized by its enacting legislation to award monetary damages. By Ordered entered November 18, 2016 the Commission scheduled two public comment hearings for Tuesday, January 17, 2017, the first beginning at 1:30 p.m. and the second beginning'at 6:00 p.m., at the Public Service Commission, 201 Brooks Street, Charleston, West Virginia, to take public comment from those members of the public that are not parties to this general investigation.

Box 812, Charleston, West Virginia 25323.

HNDec.6 (NAPS)—You have a better chance of keeping yourself, your vehicle and your passengers on the road to safety even When the weather is bad if you prepare in advance so your vehicle can be your refuge. These seven tips can help. Take Inventory Inside Make sure you know what’s inside your vehicle. See that you have a blanket, first aid kit, cur— rent snacks and an inflated spare tire; also, a cell phone charger and some basic tools. All those can be useful if your vehicle leaves you stranded. Clean and Coat Your windshield allows you to see what’s coming. Clean the inside thoroughly to remove buildup, smoke and haze. On the outside, use a product such as Invisible Glass Clean & Repel to add a protective coating to help shed rain, snow and ice while increasing visibility. Inspect the Outside See that all your lights work, front and rear. Working lights are key to seeing and being seen. They’re not just for looks. Plus, driving with burned-out bulbs can result in a hefty fine. Checkups Count Perform regular maintenance, including checking that little oil change sticker on the windshield. Regular maintenance is similar to a checkup. Metal shards in your oil, discolored coolant or an irreg- ular noise can help diagnose something that could go wrong with your ride. In an effort to get listed in the Guinness Book of World Records, Eric Meissner made the world's smallest violin in 1977. It measured just over 1% inches long. *** Youth is a disease from which we all recover. —Dorothy Fuldheim *** A cleaner car can mean a safer ride in bad weather. Keep Your Wheels Turning Your vehicle’s tires and wheels take a beating every time you drive. Brake dust, grease, oil, and road grime can cause permanent dam- age over time. A simple cleaning can help protect your tires and wheels, prolonging their life. For example, Stoner Wheel Cleaner quickly pen- etrates deep into hard-to—reach areas, making cleanup fast and easy. Don’t Pass Gas If you have the chance to fuel up, take it. On any trip, never let your tank drop below half full. Doing that means you should always have enough gas to get back to where you were. Charge Your AC The air conditioner system does more than cool your vehicle. It also removes excess moisture. Fogged windows are a sign that your defrosters may not be able to keep up the pace. Have your mechanic top off your refrigerant. Learn More There are many ways to make sure your vehicle is ready for any season.
