Been working on this, is that the type of things that in their Solar Shares Program and their Efficiency Program that the department of the environment have been working on are the type of build out that we have been asking for all this time. Its very important for the board to give direction to the sfpuc and sf environment to maximize the local build out of these behind the meter resources and the one thing i heard thats a bit of concern is that everyone seems to be depending on staff on the fu...

Little bit of that luxury of time to plan so that when we know the amount of money thats well have a menu of things we can do and depending on how much funding the cpuc allocates to the cca, theres a little bit of argument, as you can imagine, between pg e and ccas between who gets the public good charge money and how much and that hasnt been settled yet.

Community choice so we need to get our rates out and reported in the papers before then so the board needs to be able to take action before then. That also gets to the legislation you were discussing about the charter and other things. We need the board to go ahead, someone on the board to go ahead and move the legislation to committee so that by the time the sfpuc is done doing its work the legislation will be ready to move forward instead of getting a delay. Our timeline cant afford any delays...

And because, from our perspective, and the wonderful thing about bay run, as you know, commissioner mar, is that ...

What we are proposing here, or what parties are proposing here at the california puc is to make it so that low income qu...

Theres no protection for those farmers, then that those farmers go under. They go bankrupt and that way of life ends. And so, yes, so my heart goes out to those farmers that that may occur to. But its a larger issue than just the farmers. Without Crop Insurance, without that protection, those farmers may lose those farms. That means we dont have a food supply that we can count on.
