TOMMY T. MOALA - A TONGAN AMERICAN - ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER - SF PUBLIC UTILITIES - IS RETIRING - AFTER MORE THAN 20 YEARS OF SERVICE.






Tommy T. Moala -
an American Tongan Brother -
retiring after more than 20 years of service.



Tommy T. Moala - who I have known for many years - the Assistant General Manager - of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission - is retiring - after more than 20 years of service to the City and County of San Francisco.

Tommy who is well known to me - on many levels - has interacted with me - on many very serious issues. 

He has known me as a straight shooter - if you are wrong and with intent or carelessly have done some wrong - I will not hold back.

Tommy has been in charge of 3 wastewater treatment plants - over 1000 miles of sewer pipes,  a dual sewer system  that takes in the storm runoff as well as the dealing daily with the production of sewage.

Each of the sewage treatment plants be it the one at Ocean Beach by the SF Zoo, the Bay Treatment plant by Pier 39 - or the aging sewage treatment by Phelps Street in the Bayview - each treatment plant is unique - and Tommy T. Moala - has juggled the situation to the best of his ability.

Any treatment plant demands exercising leadership - the many employees who must work as a team, more in the operations of the plant  - adhering to compliance - and maintaining a high standard - when it comes - to standard maintenance.

It has not been easy to juggle the many moving parts - and with the early retirement of Tony Flores and others - in recent years - things are floating in the air.

While the old sewage plants are slowly being brought to standards - in this digital world - the institutional experience and wisdom has been thrown to the wind - by those decision makers - who are busy wheeling and dealing.

SFPUC is the hub of corruption - an Enterprise Department that generates millions and wastes millions more.

Tommy T. Moala has had to deal with issues at the sewage plants - and even though I do not work for the SF Public Utilities Commission - I have been involved to bring about solutions -directly and indirectly.



General Manager Harlan Kelly -
recently had his term extended for another 5 years -
the timing jives with the upgrading
of the Raw Sewage Treatment Plant - and innovative models -
that can address the many adverse impact that the citizens
of the Bayview - experience daily.

Good leaders show the way, know the way, and go the way.

The SF Public Utilities Commission has a $10 Billion budget - to address the revamping of the digesters that hold the secondary effluents - right now in 6 large tanks - that have been repaired - and the new ones a proprietary design -  of a Scandinavian firm.

With that $10 billion - new weirs, sewage tanks that hold the secondary effluents - and release the millions of secondary effluents slowly into the Bay. 

Right now the treated sewage - has failed on many occasions - more on days when we have had heavy rain - the dual system serve a purpose - but not with the increase in customers that have tasked the system - and we have seen real failures - grow exponentially.

Now all that and more is supposed to change - with the new digesters - and with that brand new technology - that should make a big difference.

Well right now that is a dream - again and again - energy issues linked with the Bio-Solids and other treatment processes - demand too much energy.

 Energy is at a premium and over head costs - are baffling - the buffoon do not know what to make of this situation - that has not been well thought of - before.

Timely scheduled meetings with the public at large - have not be held on the digesters.

Those advocates that have been at the many deliberations - have been NOT told one thing - other things happen.

All the while - money set aside for community benefits - are doled out to some sell outs - who do more harm than good to the community at large.

 Leading that charge the Assistant General Manager of External Affairs - who should be fired.

Read this article :

Some of us advocates have attended - who have attend the many meetings - linked to the Sewer System Improvement Project and the Water System Improvement Project - it is like pulling your teeth - your hair -  listening to buffoons - testing your patience.





Juliet Ellis the Assistant General Manager -
and added to that title Chief Strategist -
who has created too many adverse impacts -
and continues to contaminate and pollute the situation at hand -
by interfering and messing with others - who are fed up with her.



It does not make it easy with folks like Juliet Ellis who is the Assistant General Manager for External Affair - and recently added another title - Chief Strategist. The audacity of this good for nothing woman to add - such a title - when she is as corrupt and crooked as they come.

Corrupt as she is - who should not be working for any institution  - private or government - who is an anathema.

Juliet Ellis has single handedly - messed with the Phelps Sewage Treatment Plant - the many structural  improvements - other programs.

More - linked to outreach - community benefits - that she fucks with daily - to the dismay of those that know the community - and more understand the pertinent and salient issues - that have NOT been addressed for decades. 


We advocates are fed up with this woman.





Dwayne Jones - who works as a consultant -
will collect information from bids provided -
other proprietary documents - 
and use it as he deems - necessary to make money.

When some one like Tony Flores retries - a very valued SF Public Utilities Commission employee - who we did not see honored for all his services in public - as he should have had. Something stinks in Denmark!.

We advocates will remember Tony Flores - more as we will remember Tommy T. Moala.

All the shenanigans that are happening - the many programs pushed - to create an illusion - will not fool us advocates who have experience - and can smell a skunk from a mile away. One of them is Dwayne Jones. Another is his side-kick Shamann Walton.

We are monitoring the situation like a HAWK.

Dwayne Jones as does Juliet Ellis - have access to millions of dollars - Community Benefits money - any audit done of these monies - will reveal - umpteen infringements.

Dwayne Jones has an office at 525 Golden Gate Avenue - the headquarters of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission - what the fuck is Dwayne Jones doing at the SFPUC. Why does he have his sticky fingers - in every pie.

He has been black listed - do not take my word - read this article :

http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/SF-Housing-Authority-contracts-questioned-4219019.php





Tommy T. Moala is retiring -

who do you think has the last laugh -

again and again scum bags like Juliet Ellis 

and Dwayne Jones - have controlled assets and funds -

that they have no right to control - 
more - funds coming under the jurisdiction of Tommy T. Moala -
the upper authorities - corrupt to the core - calling the shots.


Not long ago the San Francisco Controller Office conducted an audit - linked the Phelps Sewage Treatment plant - and revealed the extend of adverse impacts.

 The many Notice of Violations - that Tony Flores and others who retired - tried to ratify - but could not - because of the rampant racism, corruption, and abject disdain for decency, transparency and accountability.

The person in charge at the Phelps Treatment plant ordering parts that could not be used - putting those workers who monitor air samples and required to do other testing - at odds with this Manager - who created situation to rake in thousands. Who is fooling whom?

Again and again when a position is advertised - such as the position of the Wastewater Operation Manager - thousands of dollars are expanded to consultants such as The Hawkins Company - who do not have a " clue " -  about what is truly happening at " ground zero '.

Here is the advertisement for the job of SF Wastewater Operation Manager:

 Shamann Walton running for District 10 Supervisor -
now President of the failed SF Unified School District Board -
upward mobility - up the corrupt political ladder -
good friend of Dwayne Jones who is his side- kick.


Walton Shaman visiting the Phelps Treatment Plant and instead of being interested in Upward Mobility - Career jobs, sound training -  interested in some State of California STEM programs - that could bring him personally - millions of dollars.

He is now running for District 10 Supervisor - have failed as the President on the Board of the SF Unified School District.

Walton Shaman should be ashamed -  backed Lennar Urban - endorsing high-rise building at Candlestick Point - land prone to liquefaction. Lennar bloody money will come to haunt Shamann Walton - sooner not latter.

My investigative reporting has tons of empirical data - I know the corrupt players - and can take my time - to expose them.

I wish Tommy T. Moala all the best - take care of your aged parents.

May be you can spend more time in Tonga - a beautiful place - and the Tongan people - very graceful and full of hospitality of the highest quality. You will have tons of time to reflect on the 3 Sewage Treatment plants - the many ploys, machinations, and shenanigans.

Thank you for your service and keep in touch.
