at one property and threatened one lower. those two homes saw forced evacuations. with road access sheriff's deputies went door-to-door to the other homes to advise homeowners to leave. most we spoke with ted not leave but to precaution -- took precautions. geologists were brought on the scene to evaluate the stability of the slide. they will continue monitoring at to the rest of the week. as for the residents who stayed behind, they are looking forward to the storms and all the impacts they leave behind to give way to sunshine. >> that's why i came to california, it was in the back of my mind. i was born in glasgow. reporter: professionals are evaluating that slide right now. they will be doing so through the rest of the week. they will keep those evacuation advisory's in place through the rest of the week as well. zach g

abc7 news showing the moment one of the trees along the embarcadero came crashing down, piling on top of other trees that had already fallen. >> there it goes. there it goes. reporter: today we came back to the park to see the extent of the damage, and realize how close the trees came to falling on some of the tents on the sidewalk. >> man, for such victories -- b ig trees, they got small root systems. is it really safe for these out here? can for people around these trees -- safe for people around these trees? reporter: it was another intense day of removing trees throughout the city. >> we had crews working around the clock and contractor crews brought in. reporter: an estimated 900 trees and branches all over the city fell yesterday during what meteorologists are calling a bomb cyclone. unusual for this region. on some streets, power lines were damaged. in a few cases, trees were so

kristen: as storms continue to sleep through the bay area, environmental groups are calling for closer monitoring of an industrial site on san francisco bay. larry: we have a look at what the groups want. reporter: the site sits in the shadow of a majestic wildlife refuge. the company that owns the site is moving forward with a plan that they say will make the area safer and more resilient to climate change. the ponds in the southern reaches of san francisco bay look something like a giant checkerboard.

a crisscross of levees turning evaporated seawater into mountains of high-quality salt. but recently, environmental groups have raised concerns about the material in two of the ponds. concentrated bi from the process that could present a threat to nearby wildlife in the event of a release. >> the agencies need to go out and inspect the ponds and make sure we are not on the verge of a catastrophic toxic spilled into san francisco bay. reporter: david directs save the bay. the group co-authored a letter to the san francisco bay conservation commission questioning whether the agency is effectively monitoring the ponds. among their concerns -- threats to the levees from sea level rise, kind tides, or a strong earthquake, and the potential for a spill or seepage to reach the nearby wildlife refuge. >> there are toxic sites that are much more heavily regulated. it is baffling the agencies

haven't taken a stronger stand about protecting the bay from this toxic material. reporter: the concerns,'s cargo is rolling out a major proposal that could transform the way company stores and processes the mixed sea salt. a plan that would ultimately dispose of them back in the bank. he is no cargo land resources manager and says the company is working to build a multimillion dollar pipeline designed to be a long-term solution. >> we understand sea level rise and climate change is coming. we to realize the time to act is now. we are taking a proactive approach. reporter: the pipeline shown in red would run about 16 miles, connecting the ponds with the waste water treatment system run by the east bay dischargers authority. once the brain is mixed with treated wastewater and diluted, it will be piped to this facility in san leandro and released back into the bank.

the general manager says the project would be one of the largest additions to the east bay wastewater system in years. she believes the dilution process is a safe way to dispose of the bitter. >> would consider it our mission to protect the bay. we've done a lot of testing to demonstrate that they combined -- the combined brine from cargo will be safe for the bank. reporter: the executive director with the san francisco regional water quality control board, while acknowledging her agency has not inspected the ponds specifically, she says cargo provided a recent inspection report and supports the pipeline plan. >> returning it back, it came from the bay, you are returning it with not a high concentration that it can be toxic to the environment. reporter: still, groups like save the bay argue it will be years before construction is completed. they point to recent levee

failures like the breach and monterey county as an example of the heightened risk. they are pushing for increased oversight by agencies like the bay conservation and development commission and regional water quality control board. >> a lot of letters are going back and forth between agencies and the company. is not adequate. they need to go out and inspect the site and see how close the material is. reporter: an environmental balancing act in a corner of san francisco bay that's both the center of driving industry and home to a fragile and majestic wildlife refuge. larry: majestic's award. while there is no firm agencies we spoke with say they believe it could potentially be approved later this year. we will keep you posted. larry: thank you, dan. kristen: ware also keep an eye on the next set of storms -- no, no, no,. larry: it is beautiful outside. let's see where that.
