But city officials have never declared the systems complete and merged. Thus city officials can declare the hydroelectric profits as surplus to that branch of the Hetch Hetchy system and then use the revenues for general city needs - even though the system's waterworks are in desperate need of repairs and improvements.

The city began diverting the hydropower revenues at least as early as the late 1960s. About $25 million in Hetch Hetchy funds went to fund Muni electrical maintenance work in the following decade, which spanned the mayoral administrations of Joseph Alioto, George Moscone and Dianne Feinstein.

Ah, I now understand the problem!
