the transbay joint powers authority is the agency that hopes to make that happen. after a meeting with transportation policymakers in washington, dc last week, the head of the agency offered a very positive update during a recent board meeting. they have accepted the portal into the engineering phase of the capital investment grant. this is something we've been working for a number of years now, and it comes with a federal commitment of $3.38 billion, to the portal project, according to the agency. that's almost half of the nearly $8 billion price tag. the portal will be a tunnel to be dug from the current caltrain station to the salesforce transit center, which is nearly two miles away. it's actually closer as the crow flies, but the tunneling will zigzag under the city a bit. in this animation from the agency, you can see how the trains will go underground, then turn under second street and then eventually arrive at the transit center under natoma and many streets. according to tjpa board vice chairman supervisor rafael mandelman, the cost of the 2.4 mile tunnel

in is senator wiener and senator hobs bill for options for authorizing a regional transportation revenue measure including manage 789 provisions. an amended version of the bill would be in print on april 14th and addressed the amendments that we were seeking noted in the board materials. the bill has passed out and is currently in senate appropriations. at the transportation committee there was a term sheet that included amendments that would prohibit mtc for placing amendments on the balance limiting the tax to 30 years and if a sales stacks perceived, limiting it to half a percent. those were appropriate into the bill yesterday and put limits on commission funding as well as update the transportation consolidation language to allow them to enhance coordination or consolidate or both. there could be more more flexibility there. we're supportive of any language, however, we're seeking amendment to ensure that transit operators are represented on any government structure on regional committee or body. unfortunately, at the mtc legislation committee on friday, the executive director noted
