Life is for the living - not the living dead.
Water is Life; the water at Hetch Hetchy is sacred.
A chronic thief, liar, cheat, greedy, and arrogant cannot and will not value and honor the indigenous people.
San Francisco seems not to respect and honor the water that San Francisco stole from the indigenous tribes surrounding the Hetch Hetchy Valley.
It is a pathetic and atrocious use of clean drinking water to flush the commode - idiots will not get it - SFPUC has no morals and ethics.
SFPUC owes the indigenous billions of dollars - you may not pay the indigenous, but if you do not - as I have been saying, you and those cheating and lying will fall flat on your faces.
San Francisco, after the 1906 Earthquake, lacked access to water to drink and also to put out large fires - the fat cats from San Francisco used their influence in the United States Congress and created the Raker Act of 1913.
Once San Francisco got the water, the all-white thugs got greedy.
To this day, the corruption is blatant and in your face.
Not once has the SFPUC invited me to any meeting worth the salt; the three or four meetings with key SF City managers were arranged by me.
It is a shame that not all whites, but those who are biased and privileged, will not acknowledge that this land - Turtle Island - belongs to the indigenous tribes.
The privileged think they can come to some land, steal, cheat, and think that all was given to them on a platter - because of the color of their skin - privileged.
The United States is in dire straits, and here in California, since the Whites stole the land, nothing much has changed.
It took Gavin Newsom waiting until the last moment before he steps down to bring some indigenous tribes - most of them involved with casinos and say something about an apology, which means nothing unless all of them indigenous are put on the Federal Register and compensated for all the trials and atrocities committed by the thugs during the Wild West days.
California is the fourth largest economy in the world. You would not know that when one sees the thousands of homeless and many homeless living in filthy conditions - no one seems to care about the homeless.
Today, privileged billionaires are busy building Data Centers that pollute the environment, waste millions of gallons of water, and use more electricity (energy) than quantum technology.
Few know that the Electric Magnetic Field has adversely affected millions all these many years - innocent people living near the areas bombarded day and night - and coming down with cancer and all kinds of other diseases, and no one has gone deep to bring the many deaths to the fore - and the attention of us all.
Way back in 2000, we had an Internet Hotel, and around 2012 some vultures wanted a site and got it at 400 Paul Avenue, changed hands, and is now named Novva, situated on 7.5 acres, promising this, that, and the other, all related to AI, not vetted.
I met the CIM group and 1547 Critical Systems Reality (CSR), which conceived a data center; a few meetings were held at 1800 Oakdale, and most of those present had no clue about the discussion.
Around 2000, I got acquainted with Monkey Brains and some technicians who worked on early laptop Macs. I worked at the Presidio, where we laid fiber and built a state-of-the-art Communication Center with Lucent Technologies and Motorola way back in 1996.
Recently at City Hall, the current District 10 Supervisor has gotten up from his slumber and introduced some proposition to stop a Data Center - in the Bayview, supported by two or three others - who are connected with Young Community Developers - the City and County of San Francisco funds them with over $53 million - supposedly helping the youth - but have no empirical data to show - time for an audit.
Dwayne Jones was connected with YCD - was indicted and worked directly with YCD, who have done nothing much to serve our youth - the present District 10 Supervisors seeking to gain some fame for all the wrong reasons - have never addressed the toxic Hunters Point Naval Shipyard - nor the thousands suffering from all sorts of ailments in the Bayview.
There are some who are running to make Bayview Hunters Point better - none have the experience; chronologically, they have an understanding from the days of the Joint-Housing to today - mostly Black from the community - we call them sellouts - have worked with those in power - got money and forgotten to serve the community.
These folks don't know the Reservoir at Hunters Point hasn't been maintained; the reservoir is filthy and stinking, and it's been like that for the last 20 years.
At Hunters Point, depleted Uranium was tested - these ignorant so-called outsiders - wanting to lead - have no clue when they open their mouths and shove their feet in.
I call upon the OGs to take control of the situation - do not allow these jackasses to bully anyone.
The Hetch Hetchy Valley was one of the most beautiful valleys; the Tuolumne River ran through it, and millions of salmon once spawned there; today, the count is less than a hundred.
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission abuses the Tuolumne River, taking millions of gallons of water and exceeding the quota needed to supply water to Crystal Springs, a large Reservoir south of San Francisco.
From Crystal Springs, the water is pumped to reservoirs such as the University Mound in the Portola District and the Reservoir at Potrero Hill.
The Reservoir at Lombard Street, the Sunset Reservoir, where over 350 million gallons were pumped in, and most of it was pumped out of the Reservoir - by incompetent folks who do not know what they are doing?
Imagine wasting 350 million gallons of clean drinking water?
Then there is the Hunter Point Reservoir, which hasn't been cleaned or maintained for over 20 years.
SFPUC is so stupid that it refuses to provide documents that must be kept for at least five years, and it refuses to answer any questions, leading SF OSHA to indict it on five counts.
www.osha.gov
As less water remains in the Tuolumne River, it warms, Salmon are affected; warm water harms spawning.
The SFPUC gives a damn; it sells excess water stored in the Hetch Hetchy Dam to large corporations to cool their operations, and those corporations pay SFPUC large amounts of money.
Steve Richie knows this and lies about it every time; that, and the other thing, is time for Steve Richie to step down and fade into oblivion.
The Bay Area Clean Water Agency (BACWA) was formed in 1984; today, it serves 29 agencies, gets its supply from Hetch Hetchy, and was not part of the 1913 Raker Act.
Whites know how to do business, and they do it the greedy way - they love money and do not care if they steal water and sell it at a premium and give a damn about the indigenous from whom they stole the water and today waste millions - and when they speak to us - beg us to treat the SFPUC with respect - go figure!
BACW's history is making money for SFPUC, and even then, BACW pays two-thirds of the money for infrastructure and other essential repairs and upgrades, working with SFPUC to pay the invoices.
SFPUC failed to do a needs assessment; it couldn't think about the future - greed kicked in.
Today, BACWA regrets dealing with Steve Ritchie and some other thugs. It is time Steve Ritchie fades into oblivion and stops lying about facts and trying to take credit for everything.
SFPUC takes every opportunity to fleece and bully decent workers and those who do right.
SFPUC and, before that, the SF Water Department have deceived San Francisco taxpayers and hoodwinked San Franciscans by selling millions of gallons of water from the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir without accountability.
The SFPUC, in recent times, has failed to listen to the public to stop pumping too much water from the Tuolumne River, adversely impacting Salmon that made their journey from the Pacific Ocean up the Sacramento River only to spawn, and the Salmon die.
Who will speak for the Salmon?
Time and time again, I say, "Who will speak for the Salmon?" at the SFPU Commission meetings. It is a shame when SFPUC has no empathy and thinks they own the land stolen from the indigenous tribes.
The SFPU Commission hears me but pays no attention to any speaker during public comment; today, the SFPUC is in dire straits.

About a year ago, three decent, hardworking employees working for the SFPUC Water Department were fired.
They were taken to task and fired because they asked to be treated like human beings, but they weren't.
All three of them were traumatized and in the hospital.
Francisco Da Costa was told about this case linked to maintaining the reservoirs; Reservoir maintenance falls under a term that demands strict standards and training called "Confined Space".
You can get all the information about " Confined Space " and the good work OSHA is doing by visiting the OSHA website: www.osha.gov
Any employee working underground and connected to the policies linked to "Confined Space " must be respected. SFPUC, with intent, sent employees to work in situations where their lives were adversely impacted; each one of them was traumatized.
SFPUC has the worst track record: an Enterprise Department that received millions; it spends money without justification, and the SF Controller's Office has to review the audits.
The SFPUC started with a $6 billion budget tied to the Sewer System Improvement Project (SSIP), which has grown to $15 billion and is heading toward $25 billion.
Few know the history of these infrastructure projects, the millions wasted on the Calavarez Reservoir and many others, all audited, yet the SFPUC makes excuses every time.
We waste billions, enrich the rich connected to large corporations, and have empirical data and Joint-Venture crooked deals, yet the Mayor of San Francisco has no clue about the situation at hand.
Employees should be certified to work in "Confined Space" for at least 40 hours to learn how to handle hazardous materials; be careful, especially if you have sound lungs, and more.
The matter was taken before the SF Office of Safety and Health Agency (OSHA) and falls under the United States Department of Labor. After nine months, SF OSHA indicted SFPUC Water Department on five counts. Five counts say a lot - and San Franciscans better read what follows.
We have several reservoirs in San Francisco: one at Hunter Point that hasn't been maintained for 15 years, and another in the Portola District that wasn't cleaned for over 5 years, and was only cleaned a few months ago by some third party.
The Reservoir at Potrero Hill wasn't cleaned for 6 years; the homeless urinated and defecated, and the SFPUC knew: manager Bill Taehan and Frank Jordon; upper management Steven Richie; and the SFPUC Manager who lives a quarter mile from the Reservoir.
The Sunset Reservoir, which holds 177 million gallons of water, went unmaintained for 6 years. The Reservoir was drained about a year ago, spilling 177 million gallons of water and all the so-called drinking water.
The employees got no training or certificates, used brooms when a machine with rotating brushes breaks down the sludge, had no emergency monitors, had poor lighting, worked some forty to fifty underground, and SFPUC treats the employees like dirt.
SFPUC had the audacity to lie and send a fake certificate with no date or signature, and this nonsense has gone on for years. They sent this certificate to SF OSHA, and that is a crime.
At work, one manager, Bill Taehan, got some of his workers and entertained them by showing porn - the entire episode was in the SF newspaper, and the man is known for selling copper wire and stealing from a store - sunglasses and more.
Right now Bill Taehan is on a committee of so called Technical Experts - seeking to use mandates that have not been vetted - linked to forcing selected units - homes, condominiums, other units to install " fire springerlers " - old buildings that will need expensive retrooutfits - most of those living pay check to pay check.
Bill Taechan is representing the SFPUC the worst and most corrupt with the City and County of San Francisco.
Lombard Street has a Reservoir - below is the Reservoir and above is a concrete tennis court - some players have compromised the gate to the Reservoir and take a pee, and the SFPUC managers know about this and give a rat's ass.
Imagine so-called clean drinking water pumped to homes and the financial district, and the SFPUC manager, who earns over $600,000, and his sidekick, $460,000.
Both are attorneys managing utilities, sewer and clean water treatment plants, a Quarry, millions of acres of land, some leased to cattle farmers by Calavares Dam, and more. These two clowns must be charged and fined heavily.
The SFPUC has been audited several times, and you can find the audits on the SFPUC website, shameless jackasses. They love to bully others; their time will come - they are already shitting bricks.
I am calling on the San Francisco Health Department to investigate the filthy, stinking, so-called clean drinking water pumped to a daytime population of over 1 million and a nighttime population of over 840,000.
I call on the SF Controller and the SF Inspector General to bring these thugs to book.
If this clean-drinking-water issue hits the media, shame on the Mayor and the City Administrator.
The Treasurer, the head of the Health Department, the Police Chief, the head of Public Works, and the other clowns who do not give a fuck.
Take it from me, San Francisco has gone to the hogs.
