Dagg's home and office searched by law enforcement
By David Benda (Contact), Ryan Sabalow (Contact)
Friday, June 19, 2009
State investigators served a search warrant Friday at the Shasta Builders' Exchange headquarters in Redding and the home of Kent Dagg, amid possible allegations of misconduct by the Exchange's CEO.
Erica Derryck, a spokeswoman for the San Francisco County District Attorney's Office, said her office, the California Highway Patrol, the California Department of Insurance and the State Franchise Tax Board are investigating allegations of misconduct involving former employees of the State Compensation Insurance Fund.
Derryck refused to say more.
Dagg was appointed to the State Compensation Insurance Fund board of directors by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2004. He resigned in 2006 amid conflict of interest allegations. The State Fund is based in San Francisco.
Dagg arrived at the Innsbruck Drive office around 11:15 a.m. Asked to comment, Dagg said: "I'm not allowed to talk to anybody," before walking into the building.
Dagg's Sacramento attorney Malcolm Segal said the searches came as a complete surprise to his client, who thought his past troubles with the State Fund were long over.
"I can't imagine all these resources that were spent into looking for records so long after the events in issue, when a phone call would have done the trick," Segal said. "We haven't heard a word from them - not an e-mail, a phone call, not even a Hallmark card."
The Los Angeles Times reported on its Web site Friday that as many as seven other search warrants have been served to people in Northern and Southern California.
The paper cited a state official who said she was briefed on the probe, but was not authorized to release the information.
In addition to Dagg, other search-warrant recipients were likely to include former board member Frank DelRe of Long Beach, former fund President James Tudor and Vice President Renee Koren, the Times reported.
Four CHP officers posted outside the Builders' Exchange said they would not say why the building had been closed. They referred questions to the San Francisco District Attorney's Office.
A woman who answered the phone at the Builders' Exchange on Friday afternoon said the office would reopen Monday.
The California Department of Insurance and the State Franchise Tax Board directed questions to the San Francisco District Attorney's Office.
A phone message left at the State Compensation Insurance Fund's headquarters in San Francisco wasn't immediately returned.
Builders' Exchange board members Sue Harbert of Harbert Roofing Inc. and Chad Thompson of Redding Countertops Inc. declined to comment.
Phone messages left for other board members weren't returned.
Dagg was implicated in conflict-of-interest allegations after it was learned the fund paid more than $125 million to building organizations with ties to the Exchange.
A $100 million class-action lawsuit filed in 2007 against Dagg and other former State Fund officers was dismissed in August 2008.
Dagg and others were accused of diverting at least $25 million in surplus premium proceeds to their organizations over four years, money that should have gone back to policyholders as dividends, according to the complaint filed by ACRO Constructors Inc. of Burbank.
"I am not surprised it was thrown out. I am pleased it was thrown out, but really not that surprised. We have never done anything wrong," Dagg told the Record Searchlight after the lawsuit was dismissed. "We run a very good organization. I think this was just another attempt at a frivolous lawsuit."
State Fund serves as California's worker's compensation insurance carrier of last resort.
The quasi-governmental organization has offices across the state, including a branch in Redding near Shasta View Drive and Highway 44 that employs some 200 claims adjusters, fraud investigators and others.
In August 2007, State Fund renewed its contract with the Shasta Builders' Exchange after suspending it in March 2007 pending an external review of all group discount programs.
California Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner ordered an audit, and in December 2007, he issued a scathing report, which found that the insurer spent more than half a billion dollars over the previous decade for marketing help that often provided "minimal services," according to the L.A. Times.
Jay Gibson, who owns Gibson Heating & Air Conditioning in Redding and is Dagg's close friend, said Friday's raid caught him by surprise.
"We're all speculating and wondering and thinking," Gibson said.
Gibson saw Dagg several times this week and spoke with him on the phone. Nothing they talked about suggested Dagg knew about the investigation or that a search warrant was about to be served, Gibson said.
"I'm sure it was an absolute blindside to him," Gibson said.
Redding land planner Eihnard Diaz also is a friend of Dagg's. Diaz, too, was shocked when he heard about Friday's events.
"I am as surprised as anybody else. I thought this whole thing was put to bed - unbelievable," Diaz said. "Kent Dagg has been beyond reproach as far as ethics. I can't envision him doing anything illegal or whatever the hell is going on."
Dagg, as the construction industry's top lobbyist, is widely considered one of the most influential people in Redding and Shasta County politics.
He's a frequent speaker at many functions, including local State of the City and County addresses.
The campaign contributions doled out by the Builders' Exchange and other pro-development groups became a source of debate and contention in the 2006 race for three open City Council seats. Dagg backed the candidates he deemed pro-development.
The same year, Dagg lobbied unsuccessfully to have a Builders' Exchange presence on a committee that was to pick a new city manager after then-City Manager Mike Warren retired.
Dagg was a frequent critic of Warren, after the city manager campaigned to use city funds for beautification projects and to create more parks and open space, rather than focusing on development opportunities.
At the height of the construction boom, the building industry accounted for more than 5,000 jobs in the Redding area. The active labor force has since dwindled to well below 3,000 employees.
Ever since the 2006 election, Dagg has been much less vocal.
The pro-development forces have largely taken a more subtle approach, appointing pro-development, low-tax advocate Mary Machado of Shasta Voices to campaign for the construction trade.
Dagg also nearly died in May 2008 during an ATV accident in Nevada's Black Rock Desert. Dagg was in a coma for weeks after colliding with another ATV rider. He reportedly flew 142 feet from the point of impact and bounced several times.

Another of the social elites bites the dust. Who will fund the campaigns of such fake Republicans as Dickerson and Murray ? Just watch as his buddies fly out of the way. Reminds me of the convicted felon Nancy Buffum , formly of the Redding City Council. This will be great fun as many of the political players in Redding take a bath.

"Dagg was implicated in conflict-of-interest allegations after it was learned the fund paid more than $125 million to building organizations with ties to the Shasta Builder's Exchange". Sound pretty unequivocal to me.
It could be that a few other local gods besides Dagg will get pulled down through this investigation.
Funny thing - an item in yesterday's "North state marketplace" said that State Fund was hosting a series of seminars "to help employers prepare for surprise workplace inspections by regulatory agencies". In the interest of justice, let's hope former State Fund CEO Kent Dagg wasn't all that well prepared for this particular "surprise".

What is suprising about the State of California using it's law officers in a State investigation? The CHP is a sworn State law agency and has more responsibilities than just giving idiot drivers tickets on State roads and highways. The are tied to the State Attorney General's Office as well as the Govenor's Office.

The CHP are the State Police, and as such, they conduct criminal investigations. Nothing unusual here.
The CHP may, or may not, be a bloated revenue generating agency. (Apparently, not enough revenue, though.)

The RS should really do an article connecting the dots as most don't understand how all this worked and what they those "conflict of interest allegations" really entail. Methinks most would be very, very surprised especially the policyholders from SCIF who subsidized this ludicrous behavior in the name of "safety groups". Why didn't all the health care providers come together and form a safety group and get a discounted premium? Or perhaps the hairdressers, nail techs etc.? Or the restaurants? I'm sure we all would have loved the WC premium discount Dagg afforded the SBE members all the while finding a way to funnel $$ and pay himself......

I suspect the same thing. As seen on many other occasions in decisions made by local entities etc... This is probably a trial balloon put out there by someone with interest in this case. My problem is how the RS get's involved. Since the downturn I suspect that many other discrepancies will make themselves known, because we all know that this economy has never been able to support the opulence blatantly thrust upon the masses over the past few years. If the cities and counties would have acted like we were a poor logging economy all along and put this vast amount of monies aside, thrown at it over the last decade, we'd be settin' pretty right now. Many more names will come of this before it is said and done.

It makes sense the CHP would be involved as they are the law enforcement arm of the state and would therefore investigate criminal activity at State Fund. Frankly, I am glad they are out there investigating people who are stealing our taxpayer dollars! Money well spent...

comments are what we're here for. some have axes to grind and use this section as a vindictive tool. i don't know mr. dagg. some have him guilty by who he is or represents. i paid into state fund in the past, and received a dividend rebate every year. i would not be happy to see it go to other organizations either. but, if it's allowed, is he personally at fault? i don't know...i'm not too bright.

Not that I want to get my head bitten off here, it seems as though you have a personal interest in this story.
If so, you’re biased and that’s not necessarily a bad thing, just ease up a bit.
You wouldn't want people to turn a deaf ear on your posts like so many have on others who post on here.
If you want to rant, do it on Craigslist.

What's not being addressed in this article is what Dagg is actually guilty of.
According to the Sacramento Bee and other sources, State Fund was ordered to pay nearly $20 million in fines by the State for dragging out or denying legitimate worker's comp claims.
Thousands of workers suffered as a result, and Kent Dagg and Frank Deire were at the very heart of this. Between the two of them, they funneled $500 million into the pockets of their friends and business associates. leaving injured workers with no means of support.

Anything that State Fund is involved in, other than doing their job taking care of injured workers, which is a joke, is most likely illegal. State Fund is pulling in more profits than ever, and we can all praise Arnold for this, his Workers Comp reform is what started it all.

Kent Dagg, Big Major Obama Supporter Forms Group To "Help" Control How The Stimulus Funds Are Spent In Shasta County.
Solar, Wind, Bio, Energy News And Commentary By_Green Earl, 30 year Pioneer In Conservation & Solar EnergyZauher: Group ready to handle stimulus funds
By Jim Zauher
Sunday, May 31, 2009
One of the newest buzzwords thrown around consistently these days is "transparency," in the context of "the full, accurate and timely disclosure of information."
As it relates to stimulus funding in Shasta County, a group has been formed that is taking this concept seriously. The Shasta Stimulus Team was formed by Kent Dagg at the Shasta Builders' Exchange, largely due to the exchange being involved with a residential audit and retrofit weatherization program funded through a city of Redding Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant.
The money is part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) economic stimulus legislation.
This special allocation of stimulus funding will potentially assist 200 to 300 low-income family homes.
There is no question that for many of the local governments and organizations involved this is all about jobs - local jobs.
The question that came up that caused Dagg's interest in forming this group was, "with all of the money beginning to flow into the local economy from the ARRA to various local government, nonprofits and even the Redding Rancheria, who is doing what and how do we know if and when and where the jobs are actually being created?
More importantly, can we work together to maximize potential funding for Shasta County?
At the table right now with the team are the cities of Redding, Anderson and Shasta Lake as well as Shasta County and the Redding Rancheria.
In addition, the SMART Resource Center, NoRTEC, the Regional Workforce Consortium that provides funding to the local organizations, such as SMART and the Shasta College Economic Development and Workforce Development Department, are also key players in the process.
There is basic logical motivation for the group to work together.
1. Leverage. With all the money flowing and required to be spent quickly, there may be ways to leverage resources to make the end product better. As an example, the audit/retrofit program being coordinated by the Redding Electric Utility is required to have a job-training component. Under normal circumstances, the grant proposal would no doubt take part of the funds for that purpose. However, the SMART Business Resource Center also has training funds, so as a result of the collaboration, they can put their funds into the training, which leaves more money for homes to be weatherized.
2. Coordination and communication. Each of the agencies and governments either has funds directly allocated to it or needs to submit grant applications for competitive funding. There may be various ways to collaborate or combine resources to make the grant applications more competitive. There is also good value from learning approaches certain departments take or have had success with in their grant writing that may benefit and strengthen the other members funding possibilities.
3. Scorecard. One of the potential results of the collaboration is to create a scorecard that will provide a tracking of where the funds are coming from, who they are going to and how they are disbursed. The other key element of interest for all concerned is how many jobs are being created locally
4. Regional cooperation. Using the SMART Resource Center and NoRTEC as an example, job training funds are being disbursed to several counties. Along with the Shasta College Economic Development and Workforce Development Department as well as other community colleges receiving funds, there may be numerous ways that grants and programs can work together on a regional basis.
The bottom line to all of this is to maximize the use of stimulus funding for Shasta County and the region and to ensure that the result of job creation is monitored and reported.
These are crazy times for both local businesses and local governments, but we'll get through it and, probably, in some respects fare better than most because of the collaborative effort being made through the Shasta Stimulus Team.
In general, Shasta County has had numerous success over the years because of the solid working relationships between local government and agencies.
This is just another example of how it will benefit the people of the county and the region.
Jim Zauher is the economic development director for the city of Redding.

Current events show the folly of team Obama's stimulus spending. The U.S. has to borrow from China to pay for the jobs, most of which will come too late in the business cycle, and will be high paying engineering and highly skilled worker jobs, where there already is a shortage of qualified people. The borrowing lowers the value of the dollar and this raises long term interest rates (mortgage rates). Since oil is priced in dollars, gas prices have been rising sharply and four dollar gas is the cruelest tax on the poor who can least afford it.

Having been raised on Reagan's belief that the scariest words are "I am from the government and am here to help", it is hard to compare the flighty Obama plans to rescue to the see no need ignorance of Bush.
While I am sure there is a good example of a government program that actually accomplished whar it was supposed to do and then shut down, it seems like even the best intentioned ideas get hamstrung by rules and red tape so that the pure thoughts are lost.

Accepting this federal stimulus money and then spending it has to be a difficult decision for our area. Especially when one stops for a moment and considers that we represent a 'red area' on the political map, which means that we support a more conservative point of view here in the north state in the form of Republican candidates for public office.
Now what would our Republican politicians want us to do, take this taxpayer money and spend it, or send it back to Washington with a note of 'no thanks'? Didn't Governor Palin in Alaska recently suggest not accepting any federal aid?
I think that for many of our local out of work conservative contractor friends, they could sure use an economic boast from this federal stimulus recovery money right now, but what does their conservative radio talk show host say about all this?
Again, a most difficult subject matter to weigh in at, but like Jim notes above, these are crazy times.

What is “Microgeneration”
Microgeneration, also called “micropower”, is the generation of zero or low-carbon electrical power by individuals, small businesses and communities to meet their own needs. The most widely-used microgeneration technologies include small wind turbines and solar power photovoltaic systems that have been promoted for decades as alternative sources of renewable energy. What is new, however, is the potential for micropower to move out of the alternative scene and be taken up on a wider, societal level, thus making a noticeable impact on energy policy. Because of technological advances, microgeneration now includes handheld solar and wind-power recharging devices for personal electronics, as well as advanced photovoltaic and wind-turbine products to power homes and factories.
Traditional “megapower” production of electricity is inefficient because traditional power stations are located far from the point-of-use. And the impact of such energy generation on global warming and other environmental factors has created a global movement towards reducing carbon emissions by getting “off the grid”.
The wider benefits of microgeneration are now being recognized. A recent study by the UK’s Sustainable Consumption Roundtable shows that microgeneration actually acts as a catalyst for cultural changes in consumer attitude, and provides evidence of the important impact that microgeneration has on consumers’ attitudes and behaviors regarding energy production and use. Microgeneration is both a serious form of clean energy production and also a cultural movement that is gathering momentum worldwide.

Energy bill advancing in Senate would ease power line construction
By H. Josef Hebert Associated Press (Direct Link To This Story Click Above)
Thursday, June 18, 2009
WASHINGTON - Legislation that would require greater use of renewable energy, make it easier to build power lines, and allow oil and gas drilling near the Florida coastline advanced Wednesday in the Senate.
The Energy and Natural Resources Committee approved the bill by a 15-8 bipartisan vote. But both Democrats and Republicans expressed concerns about the bill and hoped to make major changes when it reaches the Senate floor, probably in the fall.
The measure's primary thrust is to expand the use of renewable sources of energy, such as wind, solar and geothermal sources, as well as deal with growing worries about the inadequacies of the nation's high-voltage power grid.
But the bill also would remove the last congressional barrier to offshore oil and gas development, lifting a ban on drilling across a vast area in the eastern Gulf of Mexico that Congress put off limits three years ago. Drilling would be allowed within 45 miles of most of Florida's coast and as close as 10 miles off the state's Panhandle area.
The Senate bill for the first time would establish a national requirement for utilities to produce 15 percent of their electricity from renewable sources, a contentious issue that is likely to attract heated debate.
Twenty-eight states currently have some renewable energy requirement for utilities, but supporters of the measure argue a national mandate is needed to spur such energy development.
The legislation also would give much wider authority to federal regulators over the nation's electricity grid.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission would be given authority to approve the siting of high-voltage power lines if states fail to act and would be given additional powers over cyber security on the grid.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has said he hopes to take up energy legislation after the August recess, although it's uncertain whether it will be merged with separate legislation addressing climate change. The House is working on a climate bill that includes many of the same energy issues addressed by the Senate bill.
While the bill was approved by a safe margin in the committee its prospects in the full Senate are anything but certain. Several senators called it too weak in its support of renewable energy development, while others said it ignored nuclear energy and greater domestic oil and gas production.
"None of us got all we wanted," said Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., the committee's chairman, who was forced to agree to a variety of compromises to give the bill a chance of advancing. Nevertheless, he said the bill would help shift to cleaner, more secure sources of energy.
Bingaman and many of the panel's other Democrats had wanted at least a 20 percent renewable energy requirement. The bill requires 15 percent renewable use by 2021, but also would allow utilities to avoid a fourth of that mandate by showing improvements in efficiency. Renewable energy use could be cut further for utilities that increase their use of nuclear energy either from a new reactor or increased reactor output.
"This is an extraordinary weak bill," said Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
But Sanders voted to advance the bill, as did Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn. Both senators said they hoped the bill will be strengthened.
"I suspect their definition of strengthening might be somewhat different," quipped Sen. Evan Bayh, D-Ind., whose own support of the bill came despite strong opposition to the federal renewable energy requirements on utilities.
Sanders wants the renewable energy requirement to be much higher, at 25 percent. Corker said the bill needs more to promote nuclear energy and domestic oil and gas production.
"We simply must do more to increase our domestic (oil and gas) production and use of nuclear energy," said Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, the committee's ranking Republican. Still, she voted for the bill which includes a commitment to increase loan guarantees for a natural gas pipeline in her state from $18 billion to $30 billion.
The bill also calls for establishing a new office to steer grants and loan guarantees to clean energy projects, including nuclear and those using technology to capture carbon dioxide; creating an oil products reserve to be used if there are supply problems; and creating federal standards for efficiency standards for new building.
The Chamber of Commerce said the bill shows progress toward crafting a comprehensive energy policy, but some environmentalists said it falls short of shifting the country away from fossil fuels. With its new offshore drilling, support for coal and nuclear energy "this bill fails to live up to the vision of a clean energy future," complained Brent Blackwelder, president of Friends of the Earth.

Has anybody read the bill and done the research to determine how this bill would effect the two (or more) new power lines proposed to run through Shasta County?
My first impression, is not much effect re TANC, as there's no real federal interest in making money for central California utilities at our expense.
For The PG&E power line proposal, maybe, as RETI seems to be moving toward a lukewarm recommendation for the route North from Round Mountain.

There seems to be a federal as well as a local agenda to push these big transmission grid projects, hard and fast, before the population start asking questions...
Like doesn't it make more sense to spend trillions of dollars locally across the county, retro fitting conservation projects and adding local solar, wind, geo, and bio projects for generation at point of use?
POWER TO THE PEOPLE...Think Globally...But Act Locally...Who get's the benefits then? Not Paul Hauser, REU, PG&E, SMUT, SoCal Edison, L.A. Water and Power, YOU DO REDDING, SHASTA COUNTY RESIDENTS...YOU DO.

Help Us Make Climate Crisis A Priority
Dear Green Earl,
Last month's vote on climate legislation in the House Energy and Commerce Committee was a crucial step forward in addressing the climate crisis -- and I want you to know that you played an especially significant role.
As one of the most active supporters of the Climate Protection Action Fund's Repower America campaign, your actions were the foundation of our victory, building support for progress on clean energy both in your community and in Congress.

Sign up to join me on this special conference call.
As this climate legislation moves before the full congress this summer, we have an opportunity unlike anything we've seen yet.
But in order to build urgency around this bill and make sure it passes, we have to go to the grassroots -- we have to continue building support in communities throughout this great nation.
You've shown your commitment to this movement and your work will be central to our success, so I'm looking forward to sharing with you our strategy going forward, and why we can't let this opportunity pass us by.
RSVP now, and our convenient system will call you when the conference is about to begin:

Hoots and Hellmouth
The Holy Open Secret (MAD Dragon Records (Ryko/WEA))
Philadelphia-based Hoots &Hellmouth creates new music for old souls. Their second full-length effort, The Holy Open Secret, is due out June 2, 2009 on MAD Dragon Records (Ryko/WEA) and continues to blaze a trail forward in the name of progressive revival. Rob Berliner, Andrew Gray and Sean Hoots return as the core trio of string slingers and harmonious vocalizers, co-producing in collaboration with Bill Moriarty (Dr. Dog, Man Man) at Philadelphia’s American Diamond Studio. The results speak for themselves in tones ranging from the triumphant to the dulcet.
Blending the twisted roots of American music in a fierce and fiery alchemy, this ragtag bunch seeks a revival of spirit. Soulful three-part harmonies comingle with acoustic guitars, a mandolin, an upright bass and foot stomps building a synergy that bursts from both stage and speaker with aural aplomb. “It's about bleeding, sweating, crying, rejoicing," the band’s Sean Hoots says of their work. “It’s alive!”
The indescribable obviousness hinted at in the title is manifest throughout the long player. At once fresh and vibrant, yet somehow strangely familiar, The Holy Open Secret covers a lot of ground both stylistically and lyrically while maintaining a central focus on song-craft. The opening salvo, “Root Of The Industry,” rips from the speakers with a sweaty, country gospel-soaked exhortation to all listeners to “gather up your axes and hack your way to the root of the industry.” Fast on its heels, “You And All Of Us” brings the party as it celebrates true community spirit in an almost N’awlins-style “second line” feel. “What Good Are Plowshares If We Use Them Like Swords?” keeps up the spritely pace while taking things a bit deeper lyrically, calling into question the motives of those who would use such widely espoused virtues as love, faith and freedom to further their own self-serving ends.
Elsewhere, softer yet no less earnest tracks such as “Ne’er Do Well” and “Dishpan Hands” balance the rollicking vibe, draping meditations on domesticity and heartache over gauzy frameworks of plucked banjo and ethereal organ. “Roll, Brandywine, Roll” serves as a gentle end piece to the album as it ponders the prospect of slipping into a river with no intention of exiting. The gurgle heard as the song fades in and trails off is the voice of the Brandywine River of Chester County, PA, expressing itself for those with the ears to hear.
With The Holy Open Secret the band also hopes to further unite their passion for music with an aim toward radical localism. Hoots &Hellmouth see every show as an opportunity to help strengthen a sense of local community among their audiences. Touring relentlessly both on their own and with friends (Dr. Dog, O’Death, Heartless Bastards, Langhorne Slim, Grace Potter etc.) since forming in 2005, the band’s unique style of acoustic mayhem provides a flexibility that allows them to perform in all manner of venues. From rock clubs to folk festivals, they racked up over 150 shows in 2008 alone, including performances at Langerado, Wakarusa and the 47th Annual Philadelphia Folk Fest.
Each stop along the trail garners new converts for Hoots &Hellmouth as word continues to spread of their undeniably compelling performances. In the words of Hoots, "this music is at once a celebration and a mourning – championing the human potential to feel deeply and come together as a unified whole, while bemoaning the fact that much in modern life seems to work against just that. We strive to provide catharsis for damaged 21st Century humans and their environs...this is new music for old souls."
