In a telephone interview yesterday, Guerrero said there have been discussions about finding a new CUC executive director.
Those talks, he said, were brought to his attention, and people who were frustrated with CUC had been asking him to be its executive director once again.
Guerrero was CUC’s top executive from 1987 to 1994.
He recalled that when he took over the agency in 1987, the power distribution was in a bad shape. There was even a moratorium that restricted CUC from hooking up new customers, he said.
He said during his time at CUC, he rebuilt the whole system and turned it into a “first class utilities agency.”
Guerrero said since he left CUC in Jan. 1994, its power plants seemed to have never been maintained.
The engines at the power plants are the same ones CUC used when he was still its executive director.
Guerrero said it’s good CUC now has Agrekko engines, for which the government will pay $6 million a year.
He said he is not interested in going back to CUC.
Guerrero’s stint at the agency was also marked by controversy and was the subject of House oversight hearings in 1992 and a highly critical Office of the Public Auditor report in 1995.
