California oil prices manipulated by State Lands Commission
The State Lands Commission and its division are accused of under pricing California crude by a Democratic led Joint Legislative Committee report. Major oil firms allegedly benefited while the state lost revenue, a claim denied by Commission head Edward Gladish and disputed by Republican lawmakers and signers. The report alleges lack of expertise and failure to obtain fair market value for state oil.
