Good afternoon commissioners first and foremost i want to thank the commissions and others that attended the services for dr. Espanola jackson so i hope i heard the people that spoke at that service judge quinton and george and some others so what really happens when an advocate passes away it is difficult to fill the shoes of the advocate and nobody can fill the shoes of dr. Espanola jackson because she had a unique way of disarming and at the same time making a point i know you for coming too very much so advocates if they have their heart in the right place we expect the commissioners to center your heart in the right place we need to Work Together to make the right decisions for example, when the San FranciscoPort Commission decided to place the fossil fuel, etc. , etc. It was a layperson that said no and thank god we had Ambassador Richard who understood exactly what we were talking about so similarly now we are involved with a huge projects and some of those i couldnt attend the deliberations but we need to be very openminded and sincere we need to have accountability and transparency and this should be posted on the intreshlth because we are living in a Digital World so well catch up once you dont attend the meetings or the deliberations you have to catch up so well catch up when i was here more to state to the commissioners that the southeast sector which is go to be a lot will happen there are a lot of the contractors want to get jobs not getting jobs i want the commissioners especially to understand the plight of those contractors 5 million or 4 or 3 million in this drain not being done we went in memory of dr. Espanola jackson to have some good things came from all our hard work. Thank you very much any other Public Comment on the items not on todays agenda hearing none, sorry oh, please come forward. Good afternoon my name is harry berstein an instructor at city college of San Francisco and yesterday there was a meeting of the community virusy committee for the balboa Park Reservoir it is ordinary by the sfpuc and it is considering that space for housing on public lands i have a picture here and ill be glad to share this copy with you the puc, sfpuc has a picture of this land but it is empty lots they show we have one hundred thousand students in city college as recently as 2012 all kinds of reasons and count dictation we fount this land is not declared surplus we dont know for sure that the fire and the wart departments dont have another use for this land and you know were concerned that the process that is going through is eventual will cause students of their assess and also the agreement of this committee is that the performing arts and Education Center is going to be built unless the College Tells them otherwise this is the change the draft didnt mention the existence and the voters want that is going to be a source for entertainment for professional training and a way to build the college we just i want to say the San Francisco reservoir that is, i guess privately held and parkland that was blocked by a Community Group with 22 million the puc here was not even told about it until at the read about it the papers we dont want the reservoir theyre to be used and stolen under the eyes of the public without people knowing about it. Thank you, very much. Further Public Comments on items not on todays agenda. Next item, please. Item 5 communications. Commissioners are there any comments on the communications. Commission. I had on the la street light conversion that confused about the the street light control system from the pictures themselves it is part of the writeup made it sound like those two promotions are preceded into penalty and another part of write up did contractors for the fixtures and control will be led at the same time so this seems to be in conflict and it is unclear. Barbara garcia general manager for power the later is true i apologize for the lack of clarity the acquisition of the la s e d is separate if the control system. Theyll be done at the same time. Not necessarily at the same time were evaluating opportunities for the control system but vance the lapd procurement to take advantage of the energy saves even without the wireless system. The lamps will work without the control system. Yeah. They cant be admonished but will work like the lamps today. Any other questions or comments Public Comment . Next item, please. Item 67 other commission business. Commissioners . Any other business . Hearing none, next item, please. Item 7 the report of general manager. Good afternoon, commissioners i would like to first give you an update steve richie. Good afternoon steve assistant general manager so far water im here to talk about our drought feel can i have the slides please the chart the storage levels those are changing rapidly but montgomery into the direction if a extremely dry to weather periods well be moving the waters around the reservoirs to make sure we catch the water every hetch hetchy the priority or the start to refill the water banks by may significant differences the numbers. On the precipitation front again, were right above average the last week or so we tried to make sure there was good weather for the super bowl so, now we move back to move into a weather period to see what we can do the snow pack is also well above 2013 now and at the medium level give or take to look out at the snow pack front and well talk about today is water available to the city this diagram shows the medium line we have 82 arc feet of water it is available to the city that is water over and above the irrigation be districts we had more the last two years ago combined the numbers on, on the right turns three hundred and 50 thousand acre and 8 hundred plus equal the amount of water available to the city needed to achieve the july 15th storage with the reservoirs or the july 14th storage rain water reservoirs or 10 thousand arcs we fill out the reservoirs if we had that much water thats a number we really like to see come out of ohio graph and i had a little bit of information the projections we project at a medium and high and low level our low projection for the year making sure it functions how the rest of the year 5 hundred and 20 thousand acres that is a lot of above the 2015 storage level and the high projection is 5 hundred plus a very rough year and mrernt of water but the medium projection it is new conditions here on out we need a million acre well have enough to fill the reservoirs and have water left over so those are the projections and you know projections are what they are sometimes theyre right and sometimes wrong but they look like good information because we know there is already a fair amount of snow on the hill above hetch hetchy so it is good as a matter of fact, looking at the next two weeks of precipitation the upper box is the coming week which looks at dry but the lower box is the week after that looks at wet by comparison i believe the first week im a little bit skeptical and beyond that people are making this up we may ends up with additional perspiration that is good at this point. The funds again, people are convert very, very well our demand so far is well below last years demand but with the last 5 year average people are using little water to keep light water the reservoirs people are going a good job and the water board approved an extension of the water regulars for the regulatory structure until early november for the regulations as i mentioned last time had 3 adjustment one for climate for recognize probation officer people live in hotter areas and growth which not many people may make much difference and for people that develop new supplies basically turning nonpublic water and giving them credit they didnt raise the standards of 80 percent that is good we are concerned by giving other people credit theyll have to offset that we didnt do that thats good and a lot of water agencies that have their own story to tell and one they commended the water agencies this was atta boy pat on the head we dont deserve that but secondly, they 2krikd their staff to work on the ultimate approaches the message in that if they have a good story 31 they can take into account well say thats okay. But hand in hand the direction of the staff for the enhanced urban efficiency i think this is a very important step yeah, well find a way to help people but make sure that we have a plan we can Going Forward that includes conservation that was a clear message from the water board with that, im available to answer any questions you may have. Commissioners questions . Thank you very much appreciate your presentation next item, please. General manager. Oh, can i have more assess. Sorry Public Comment. Public comment at the ends. Any Public Comment on the drought hearing none, next barbara hale cleanpowersf update. Hi barbara hale just not general manager for power i want to give a quick update were on the same schedule, in fact, i ordered the same schedule for the power point slide today but so youll see were on track and as stated there we sent out our initial opt out notices customers begin to receive them i have a copy this kind of envelope clearly stating from us from cleanpowersf we have the fires that describe the program and we also have the terms and conditions that go into detail so all the customers will receive the notices if you enrolled early you get an email not knowing the time is ready to offer the service and retina ready to confirm and weve done a lot of community meetings, meetings with business and commercial representative groups and getting positive feedback our call center is up and taking calls were not getting a high volume but you up and running so with that, ill be happy to answer any questions you may have. Are you starting an effort to outreach to people to enroll in this i know youve been doing some of that. Super scorpions. And the context of the conversation with the potential customers and their applications and groups groups were talking about the center green and green product reis seen quite a few of the customers convert and sign me up for 100 percent rein trouble. How much will people do we have signed up. A little bit loans three hundred folks as far. Great commissioners. Are we getting any help or have a cooperative enterprise for the deep green with advocates with the program for a long time. Were training some of the advocates that spoke on behalf of the program and having a training this week we can be wellversed in the Program Details and 35r789 with us for example, at festivals and fairs were tabling and need folks to man a table beyond that we dont have set plans for use of those resources. That would seem one thing the Public Sector has an advantage over Public Sector we talk to our constituents all the time and it would be important for us to use the Public Sector assets earlier in in lieu of program ill encourage and the other thing a followup question i didnt notice in the enhanced calendar any scheduling of the tie ends to those sf and wondering when that comes back to us. The general manager indicated at the last meeting well schedule it at a meeting if now. One of the things we want to do internally have a meeting and talk about go solar as cca and look at it removing some of the hurdles that make it more advantageous for people to go into center green well have the meeting and present our thoughts at the next meeting. Thats my expectation but not on the advanced calendar wondering if that something had changed thank you. Thank you, thank you any Public Comment on cleanpowersf . So commissioners you know in this Ocean Mission were talking about our main competeer and no realistic information on the website you listen and they dont know what theyre doing because they have a bus plan they dont have a marketing plan and there are too many variables not known ive been following this since 1999 and some of us get fed up attending the bosco meetings nothing was happening and fed up when to the Sf Public Utilities Commission and nobody really wanted to stand for what is right so, now added last we have no basic idea of marketing how much is pg e getting it 8 percent kreptsd or 0. 09 or 0. 10 how much are we getting it for is there liabilities if there is a liability then who is going to better that liability whats the population of San Francisco . Whats what areas are targeted and at one time a puck meeting and your people did the marketing the subject of everything now from what ill hearing youre trying to tie it and now new housing and trying to go with the big areas and Big Developers so we want to know in San Francisco do you really care for the common man . The homeowners . And how you going to do that were not getting the right information we need the right information to so we can connect the dots we need the right information as they gave at marin county were not getting the right information in San Francisco. In San Francisco we have to deal with the monster it is called pg e and pg e is not going to take to lightly but give us a fight with 16 once gloves with 8 ones gloves well not be able to going 0 into the ring so we want to know who are doing this this one letter and 200 responses i know our population is 6 hundred and 5 thousand how many responses . Like i could say more but my time is up thank you mr. Fried. Jooifs furs first off what was going on i know theyve been busy the staff has done tremendous work getting this up and running and the first small phase the customers will be included ive had friends in that phase and done several things wow. She got an congratulations there are exciting times were getting the word out i know ill be sitting on a hate ashbury coincidental for that group a lot outreach that the puck staff and i are joining in with the various Community Groups across the city to make sure the program is getting launched and if you want to get into the program this year you need to sign up for the Green Products you cant afford the super green product were doing that today there is a lot of these word out and as the previous speaker there are a lot of people it will take time to get around to every single neighborhood but the staff is getting out to as many people as possible and congratulations and youve gotten our first opt notice to be part of program is you havent make sure you sign up for the program and if you have signed up with within the next few days youll get it into the mail it takes time thank you. Thank you mr. Fried i dont know would it make sense to have a lafco meeting if we need one i want to expend the invitation if the chairs at the lafco. I will take a wild stab the chair will be more than happy to do one if this is a desire ill start working with our staff to figure out what date might work all to laufrnl a round launch for an appropriate time. Yeah. Ill work with your staff. I want to also point out next week we have a press event to you know talk about the launch and also, we talked about after the super bowl because of you know and then he talked about the shift from 60 percent residential so 50 percent incremental because of making sure we had enough revenue to support the program with the initial launch and shift from 10 as far as district 10 to 8 i think 6 so you know weve been updateing you know what is it like to have more information about the plan you know we can devote that also i want to point out were working with lafco on the jobs report as well hopefully by the ends of this month we should a dr. A draft job before we predict as far as possible projects and what jobs that are generated. Great when that report is done to give lafco an update with that body. Any other Public Comment on cleanpowersf . Can we have too many people sign up. I would love 20 too many people to sign up everyone will raise their hand well included the first phase and automatic enrollment and additional folks that are asking to participate were going going to go into the phase two and when we reach the megawatts of power we will look to do is increment alley the best approach to increase we have to make sure we financing are stable enough to increase the program so this is where well focus on the coming mon s months. Great, thank you and hello, again. Mr. Berstein i can only speak for myself the public prospective of the opposition of cleanpowersf has gotten has been an amazing drama im wondering from the commission is feel apprehensive about pg e the last gentleman articulated the one before articulated very well, they have a lot to lose on the wrong side of many arguments one comments we have microphones and some of you are speaking to each other but not to the people out here please use your microphone.
