What id like is a convenience understanding of table number 2 from december 9th and what that looks like today and verification of any of experts but not the developer saying those are our estimates and not the city putting forth numbers and seeing those numbers are wrong were looking for quite frankly for the city to know what those numbers and if this is from the staff and the third partys developers coming forth with the maichd and the department can stand behind thats what i want to see. Is that if all the committee members. Supervisor tang. I mean weve heard about from from mohcd but a clear process how well be addressing whatever that money gap will be i dont know if there will be impacts on the issues in the pipeline. Sorry let me add to supervisor kims point on top of that analysis that is literally a approach to say why are we supporting a project like this from the numbers look net positive to millions of dollars and knowing this as a result will be a multi dollars funding gap hopefully were not doing that anymore but if thats the case i want to understand why. Ill add to that that i acknowledge the great work that the community and particularly supervisor kims office the problem i have is when the city experts that we engage that are sponsored well the developer responded with a different Interest Rate estimate we didnt individually verify the non portable discount in one Million Dollars before us plus or minus but buy the argument about the t dr i small, medium, and large it seems to me when we do a cuttingedge deal i support and one 80 jones is better than the alternative that produces 60 unit and probably more than the planning department, staff and the Mayors Office of housing staff rather than saying we dont know were not sure their numbers versus not our numbers but not sure that seems like they need to do a better job before we make a decision if they can sharpen their pencils in a week my inclination well see admonish affordable units to a community that absolutely needs them buttized saw a little bit better work out of our city staff.

Good morning, supervisors i hope that you are staying dry in this weather. The department of the environment has the accept and spend the resolution to you today, it is part of a larger grant from the California Energy commission. That we partnered with prospect sil con valley, and Berkeley National lab. It is the over all project is of the 2. 9 Million Dollar grant, essentially what the department and our partners are trying to do with this project is to take an existing commercial building, in this case, a Grocery Store and to put together a demonstration project, to illustrate and show case the ability of reengineering an existing commercial building, into a zero Net Energy Building by using advanced solar, solar storage, and advanced metering in order to manage or demand on this project. This grant allows the department to work as a partner, and to provide our resources to this project. We urge your support of this resolution, and happy to answer any questions. Thank you very much, lets see. Colleagues, is there any discussion for mr. Rodriguez . All right. There is no bla Analyst Report on this item, that is good. Lets go to Public Comment. Public comment is opened on item two . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Thank you. Any discussion or motion . Go ahead and make a motion to pass this out of committee with the positive recommendation for the full board. Without objection it passes. Madam clerk, item three. Item three, resolution authorizing resolution authorizing the San FranciscoPublic Utilities commission sfpuc general manager to accept an award of up to 3,000,000 through the sfpucs memorandum of understanding with the association of bay area governments for implementation of the lower cherry aqueduct emergency Rehabilitation Project funded in part by grant funds from the California Department of water resources. We have dan wade. Thank you, for the opportunity to speak to this item, i am here to speak to the items, and this is a facility that is part of the hech, hechy water Power Facilities that supplies, 2. 6 Million People in the San Francisco bay area. And in 2014, the city issued an executive order for the departments to reduce all water used. Hard to mreefbelieve that we ar this wet year after five years of extensive drought and we did start implementation of the emergency project and to be able to take the water from these reservoirs and in case it was needed. In addition to that, we have the 2013, room, fire which burned excuse me, 250, 700 acres which damaged the critical facility. And i am showing a few photos here with the destroyed photos to the head gates of the canal, as well as the damaged prejudice bridge and the foot trail to the head gates. As well as the debris that came off of the slope into the canal and so it needed repairs and cleaning. Which were critical to be being able to supply water in case needed during the excessive drought. And so we did start work. And in phase one and phase two. It includes, temporary access to the head gates, and we did need to install some gates to keep bats out of the attic and to make sure that we met our mitigation requirements for the environmental permits as well as cleaning the debris from the tunnels that take water to the aqua duct. And so phase two. The work that is shown on the slide and i am not going to read through it all, but we had to divide the work up into two phases because we discovered a rightofway issue with a portion of the alignment that dates back to the early 1900s, when the facility was constructed and so we need to get that corrected with the federal government, before we can move forward with phase two. And so we need to extend the project as a result. And in terms of budget and schedule. The cost to date are 9. 29 million tlarz, and we have projected the future costs of 4. 7 Million Dollars. And you can see the schedule listed here and so our request is to authority the general manager of the sfpuc is to accept and spend a grant for up to 3 million through sfpc, with the association of the barrier governments and this will allow us to partially fund the project and we are committed to fund the rest of the project which has a total budget of 14 Million Dollars. Does that conclude your presentation . It concludes my presentation. Thank you, supervisor yee has a question for you. Just a quick question, just curious, what is a bat gate . A bat gate . Yeah, these are outer or keep it in . Yeah, to keep them out. So that we can essentially do the work that is required that the repair work that is required inside of that structure. And not be you know, if the bats are there, we cant do the work and so we exclude them during the nonnesting period. So that they dont nest in those areas. Just looking at the picture, it looks like it is maybe it has a screen on it on the gates . Yes. I see the bars, but it seems like bats could go through them. Yeah. I believe that well, the openings are designed to be able to keep them out. I vnlt havent seen that gate myself, so i cant speak to the size of the openings, but this is the structure itself. I am sure that he keeps it out. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Good work. All right, lets go to Public Comment. Oh, excuse me before we go to Public Comment, we are going to go to the budget legislative analyst who has a report, sevron . We actually do have a couple of recommendations on this and the resolution actually is to accept and not to spend the grant and so we need an amendment to clarify that you are approving expenditure of the 3 million, also as mr. Wade said it is a 14 million, where it is a 11 Million Dollar, matching grant and so it needs to be amended acknowledge the 11 million matching grant. Otherwise we do recommend approval as amended. Thank you. Thank you. Lets go to Public Comment and then we will deal with the amendments all right, ladies and gentlemen it is your opportunity to weigh in, two minutes on item three, anyone . No. Okay. Public comment is closed. Thank you. Colleagues, lets take up the issue of the amendments. All right, i will make a motion to accept the amendments and adopt it out with the positive recommendation to the full board. Do that without objection, that motion passes. All right next item please . Item four. Resolution authorizing the San FranciscoPublic UtilitiesCommission General manager to accept and expend a grant in the amount of 404,208 from the federal Emergency Management agency through the california Governors Office of Emergency Services for the Hazard Mitigation grant program. Thank you very much, and again, we have dan wade presenting. Good morning, again, supervisors and this is the second item which is the early intake switch yard slope stablization project and this map shows the Regional Water system extended from the National Park in the east, and 167 miles across the state to the San Francisco peninsula and the city of San Francisco and the early intake switch yard is near our facilities in the up country near the reservoir as shown on the map. Now, in june of 2016, fema awarded the sfpuc a grant of 404,000 in federal funds for what we called the preaward and phase one studies of the early intake slopes stabilization project. This includes preparation of the Hazard Mitigation grant, and subapplication as well as definition of the project scope and cost benefit, and the phase one work is limited to the design and studies and so this money is for preconstruction work and then we will also apply for funds for construction on this project. Now, what is the issue here, this is an arial view of the switch yard, these are critical facilities to supply the clean hydropower that comes to benefit San Francisco and what you see on the lower left of the slide is a very steep slope that comes down to the switch yard, the switchaard is that gray area and you can see the power house on the right and there are as a result of the room fire there are a number of additional slope hazards that did not exist prior to the rim fire, namely a lot of the vegetation and so there is not as much supporting roof structures in the slope and we also have a number of rock falls into the area. This shows an example of some of those where we have fallen rocks triggered by the rim fire along the edge of the switch yard and you can see that relatively flipcy fence that is no match for a large rock coming down the slope and so we have boweled boulders bouncing into the fence and threatening the viability of this facility. We also have the trainage issues as a result of the fire where the slope is really not retaining as much water arz it used to and so we need to install the drainage and control the flood and control active mud flows and slides down the slope. And so we are looking at alternatives as part of this preaward of phase one work. Our budget estimate is billion dollars 600,000 and so the grant money will go a long way to funding this phase one and free award work and then we would go forward with detailed design, and environmental review, and eventually construction measures to support the project. The kinds of things that we are looking at are vegetation, and some rock fall fences which are very strong fences that you know, that support the slope, and possibly some other alternatives. And so that strong fence that you are describing would so there are a couple of things that you can do. You can put fencing up at the source. High up on the slope to prevent the rocks from dislodging in the first place, and you can also put very strong fencing with cables that take a lot of energy mid slope and at the bottom of the slope to prevent these rocks from bouncing in to the switch yard. And so the request here, again, is to accept and expend a grant for 404,000 from fema through the california Governors Office of Emergency Services through the housing grant program. What is a switch yard . A switch yard is where we switch from the hydroPower Facilities that generate the electricity to the transmission facility that transmits the electricity to the city. Okay. Tha
