‘Problematic, harmful’: Silicon Valley water director harassed colleagues, probe finds

An embattled Valley Water leader made harassing, discriminatory, abusive and demeaning comments to colleagues and underlings over a series of months, a recent investigation has found.

Attorneys from the Meyers Nave law firm said in a summary released Friday that various statements by Santa Clara Valley Water District Board Member Rebecca Eisenberg “more likely than not” amounted to discriminatory harassment based on sex, age or a person’s country of origin.
