Need you ask? "Did DEI Cause D.C. Sewage Disaster?"
After complaining about a water industry that was terrible because it “had too many white men at the top”, DC Water CEO David Gadis bragged that, “My executive team, you know, looks exactly like the community… people of color.”
7 out of 9 members of the DC Water leadership team are black. 5 are women.
This hasn’t done anything to get the sewage back in the pipe. Or decontaminate the Potomac.
I'm wondering: did Gadis leave this off his resume?
David Gadis, the first black CEO of a “major water utility”, had last been in the news during his tenure with Veolia Water. During that time, Veolia was accused of helping cover up the water disaster in Flint, Michigan in that city’s water crisis.
Veolia later paid out $78 million to tens of thousands of Flint residents.
Sounds like criminal malfeasance may be at work here. Perhaps an appropriate punishment would be to throw Gadis in the Potomac and make him swim to shore.
I blame global warming.

ReplyDeleteBut do any of them have experience with water systems? Seems kind of important to know.
E Coli bacteria are bad in drinking water, but they are also an potential indicator of other disease transmitting bacteria.
ReplyDeleteBefore western civilization developed, and then expanded, sewage treatment processing, epidemics of cholera, dysentery, and polio were common. And by "common", I mean constant. Including here in the United States.
Thanks to the commies and their DEI strategy, we could be returning to those bad old days.
