BOSTON Doug Dowie, the former general manager at Fleishman-Hillard’s Los Angeles office who was indicted last week on federal conspiracy and fraud charges, today pleaded not guilty, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California.

The charges stem from an alleged scheme to overbill the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power for public relations services.

Dowie, 57, served as FH general manager during the outpost’s tenure on the account from 1998-2004. FH is a unit of Omnicom Group.
