electrocution inside. the city was able to restore water service quickly. the san francisco municipal transportation sags in charge of the central subway project, and the spokesperson apologizing for the inconvenience that there was a representative here on site taking claims over the weekend. it is possible the contractor, that crew that apparently hit this water main could be patched to pay back the retailers here of exactly how much the contractor owed, we still don't know. live in san francisco this morning, stephanie chuang, "today in the bay." >> all right stephanie, thank you. it is 5:35, the coast guard is reiterating warnings this morning about the dangers of playing in the bay. the warning comes after the coast guard spent hours rescuing dozens of kite borders and wind surfers yesterday. between 5:30 and 7:15 last night, the coast guard rescued 25 people from the batter near kriszy field in san francisco. the wind died down, stranding them the out on the bay. but they all made it back to land safely. well let's check in with
