WSSC
MISMANAGEMENT
AND FAILURE TO
MAINTAIN SYSTEM
CONFIRMED

I hate to say I told you so, but I and Prince George's County Executive Jack Johnson have been vindicated. It turns out that the WSSC did have the money to upgrade its system, but chose not to spend it on that. This was confirmed in yesterday's Washington Post.

Our Montgomery County Executive and Council have insisted that we must pay more - up to $20 a month more on water bills. Instead, it is time that the top brass is finally held accountable at the WSSC. Mismanagement at a monopoly utility, willfully ignored by our elected officials who have served as enablers for incompetence (all the while fighting their counterparts on the Prince George's Council, who have advocated on behalf of citizens in this mess), is not the fault of the taxpayer and water customer.

Meanwhile.......

I have two new videos for you on the Robert Dyer Channel: one is of a 1912 Western Maryland steam locomotive, and the other is of the Weis Markets store (both mentioned in the previous blog about my trip to Hagerstown). Watch them right now at www.RobertDyer.net!
