similarly we have done it on this system as well and we have identified the relatives and we have come up with the mitigation plan we will be dropping and completing that plan and soon, we will be putting responsibilities for different people to make sure it's done. but we are going to take another step further that is on a project basis, we will be doing the risk analysis early. as you recall, on the renalle side on the ssi p we did the project specific risk assessment mostly in the construction only for projects we had included it in the preconstruction phase here we intend to do it all critical in the preconstruction. similarly, we will have a multimanagement plan in place, we will make sure that all of the tools such as the bottom line is implemented and we want to make sure that ultimate deliver of criteria, we have done analysis we have actually

developed a criteria and an evolution form which i expect all project managers to use it to see what alternate system can be applicable to their project we also are in the process of working hold and michael hold to come up with technical advisory in the city committees to steal in program. and also, the whereas one i want to take your attention to the -- there, we will get the opportunity, i want to make sure that the lessons learned are good and are there we need to improve and in the program. we have gone through all of the succession we have stream lines those procedures to respond to our organization and this program and we have also included all the definitions that were in the -- program into our standard specifications so they are not be heard again and

we want make sure the lessons learned and the coordination and our department was that also is tarylzed in it. the last point that i want to make is that we have done a risk management plan for the add program level and it was three months effort. we had a consultant of the program management consultant giving us a couple of expresses we went threw all of the interviews and are respect to that, came up with the risk management plan as well. we are going to very soon issue that and we looked at the evaluation practice and we came up with the four% in the first ten years and five% in the second ten years and you will that in the ssi p we had three and-a-half all along and there was a push in the middle 2,007 to change it but we stuck with our 3.5 and it paid off farrell

well is this plan will be again updated from time to time we want to revisit it and the vectors which i would like to share with you is that one of hem is the primary one is the maintenance maintaining the plans while we are doing it. as you just discussed it and so. classical example and how you keep it learning as we are building it and the second one is our design criteria is going to be flexible enough to make sure that changing regulatory quorum is operated in it and the third one the very big one is managing the state expectation, that is going to be a real challenge. so, as we mutt the plan together. we will definitely come back to share with you and now, i ask karen to come back and give you the communication points. >> one question. thank you. >> when you say managing state holders expectations what do you think those expectation are. as you know in this

program, they are the stakeholders are a lot from the rate pairs all the way to the people living in the and around the south the facility and people more expecting contacts to be given to them and the contacts and the jobs be given to them and so everyone is looking at this program and so how do you manage it and communicate with them and disseminate the insertion to them?. . >> and ...? years ago that is what we have to focus a lot of the attention on right now and can we get the slides up again one more time please. >> and we have the chinese new year parade just this past weekend and we have been doing bike towers and public towers and we are starting a children's curriculum program and it's to build key advocates for the project and we have a imrp of

proke folks more supportive of digester project and we have a lot of citizens who come and show concern about the project and we will be getting neighborhood organization and we are starting do the work with work supervisor and is legislative aids and the structure starting this spring we are holding public workshops and we have online tools that folks can weigh-in on our project and so we can get people and opinions very easily. the link for the inonline planning. >> i can get it to you it is going to be under the s f or.org we will supply that to you --, it's not available now. >> i don't believe it's available now you can send in any question or comment now to just s f order.ordinary care organize and ssi p something so

any question on the project. we have a communications team that takes that question and filters it through us and responds back and but we also want to use tools where people don't necessarily have to a tent ten the public meeting or we have a communication that leads a different type of communication called midnight where there was people that spend an hour learning about the wastewater system and that same group toured the southeast plans and we didn't serve drinks only 30 people came to that but we really want to build a different type of advocatey and use social media to build that thank you. and then the next steps are p -- a big deal and i know many focus in the audience have been waiting for this to happen and we will be work with closely

with today resi stromb and joule yet on the study that willing a critical companion that is going on a plan that was present to you will be further ri find and further than two-three years that he selected but we will come back to the commission on a quarterly basis and the risk mitigation strategies and now we have identified that we have programmatic risk and how we can button that up so we don't lose respect in the future and also the public outreach and what feedback we are getting in not just what we are putting out. thank you so much. >> on the mitt gracious issue and in term of public outreach my question is very sin simp on that what kind of inconveniences are is this communicate going toen compound with this project are the streets going to be

closed? excess traffic with trucks going back and forth. construct impacts particularly at southeast border water facility we will have improvements on the biofuel side and the liquid side and that is going to result in you trucks coming in and out of the neighborhood and we can arrange site stannelling equipment so that can be mitigated and work out with the neighbor but for other things like the central bay side improvement project we will have a large tunnel being built and we will need to have an access portal and that will be a deep hole partly in the public right of way because of the large amount of congestion and density that we have at the start of that tunnel. because the tunnel will be starting where you come on 280 right where the condominiumless are right there the trains going there you have condo and is you have a large amount of density

right where you are going to start that.. >> and also what measures will be taken to ensure the safety of children that live in the community, air quality. and the environmental review that looks at public air impacts and so we have many things built into our plan and specks for dust control, hours of work, noise, anything that would present neighbors from being upset or the health of children or elderly. >> and i'm also concerned about children crossing the streets are we going to provide more guards for them in that - ircross crossing guards and traffic control and minute aye routes we worked with minute aye routes if a vat is not safe for someone to get on the bus and so we work very closely with other city departments on all of our plans but it would require a

traffic plan and a traffic rerouteing plan. >> and i would i want to point out that most of work in the southeast is within our footprint. we are looking at acquiring some land as one of the options as putting the digesters away from the community to put a better technology to reduce the smell but moving it further away from the community, so, the neighbors. so, that is but irright we are going through an e i r process where we will document all of these concern and address them. >> so there is comment that suggest that these digesters may not be in the can you repeat space. i believe that is safe to say. >> mr. president and mr. cruz, we do have the benefit of two city projects ongoing right now in dense urban environments both the terminal project and the central subway project and one

with deep excavation and under a tunnel and we will be working with the m ta and the agency to find out their lessons learned and with respect to the pedestrian control and use all of the effective measure that is those programs have used on this project during the planning phase we will include all of those within our requirements for mitt gage and then we will go on and regularly monitor that administrate gages plan and report to the community so they can see that the contractors are in fact holding to all of the mitigation plans as it relates to the public and the cracker staff. >> well that is very good but i live in a community where there is currently construction going on in the streets and there is no dust control there and i have to wash my car and clean my car often because of all of the dust not to mention the house and the windows who pace for that? again, i don't know who's in charge of your project. i can try to find that out for you but in the project --.

>> that is not why i raised it.. >> that stems from the past and into the future and dust control is a problem because they all have an impact and you said we are looking into it and i respect that but i want to know what about what are the steps that are going to be articulate and had certainly we will be able to come back to the admissioner review the mitigation issues that we have sided to present that to the public as well. >> any questions from members, yes, commissioner. >> thank you mr. president two comments on the question, first comment is that we have talked selftimes about the investment that we put into s s -- we set on the ont prompt contract management systems and we have talked about the need to take that knowledge and that investment and extend it through the organization and it's clear that you are doing that here

and i appreciate that very much. also clear elsewhere in your report, that,that is being done in the hetchy project as well and we have spend that had else where so thank you for that and like i said, that will serve us very well and the second comment is that the risk management plan is something that i hope you all share with this commission in part because it will help us focus on the things that we need to pay attention to in the areas that you need support from this commission to make sure that we stay on scheduled and on budget as well. so that is a toll not only for your own management but, i think we will benefit in that as well. finally my question. >> and lots of things that you have taken the trouble to think about the bottom line and thinking further and the question is what kind of

decisions can the commission pep expect that you think will have an effect on that presentation. >> we will be able to use that decision-making for an alternative analysis and several several the green infrastructure project were things that were already movings and we will use that to compare alternative and is like commissioner torres was saying does it help with public safety and continued greenings and habitat and water quality benefit and is we want to use that for all the projects and we want to use that for early implementation project as well as a biogas study that we did for oceanside and worework out any bugs but we intrepid to use it for strong order type project as well as treatment plan projects and that may be where wreck see some of these

differentiators and you would be able to pull out easily and see where something had a bigger impact on public safety and some of them may be neural and working within the boundaries of a treated plant it may be a wash but we may see big changes with energy or climate change or carbon footprint and those kinds of things approximate so it's pretty exiting and shortly we will be able to come and present the results of the beta test that is we have done so you can get an idea of what it would look like and how we will look at things in the future. >> part of my question goes to the enact that we don't typically get involved in a lot of questions about which technology will be used and in the example here it looked as though it was a pretty good choice of what will be taken and

it's one area better than all of the other why would you urge some thought that when you have -- that are not that clear and there are clear trade-off that is somebody has has to make between the -- a project and it's social benefits if those differences are not clear where they are significant, they should come to the commission for discussion because i'm not sure what the break is on that at what dollar level or level of significance how you describe that but you probably know it when you see it my guess so, i think it's probably most definitely a tool for explaipging decisions that are made and as far as making them, it could be a tool for lower levels of management but some of them have to rise it is commissioners levels as well, we agree that is correct.

>> and practice what we can do as part of karen's and 'em medical yo's updated is spring some of those updates to the issues as part of their report. thank you. >> yes, commissioner? i have a question i see here that we are going to do work on the existing digesters. >> that is correct. what amount of one is set aside for had a. >> we have $50 million is the aside in the ssi p to ensure that our current ones will function until we get the new ones up and running and we will demolish them after the we get the new one and is so we are saying it's three roof and is we had emergency contract moving forward this is not to do seismic um, grade this is merely to stabilize them so they don't

fail under their weight and create a nightmare for those citizens that live across the street. >> it's curious that we are doing this now that we are planning to put the new ones in. it should have been done a long time ago i was curious why it's shown here. >> other cities that are constructing like program most everybody did this we have to do an investment to keep things running and since the program took this long to be able to get started and i know we ran into this in the beginning and there is a lot of things that failed under their weight because it failed so long before this capital investment. any further questions. >> public comment on this issue? mr. costa? item seven a. >> you have my card, right?

yes. >> very good. we seem to forgot that when we had a bond measure last time around not this time but before that, the it was agreed by the commission that we would address the clean water and waste water, right? nobody mentions that and the reason why you stuck with the clap weird because they took the fancy name water system improvement project is because of discrimination blatant discrimination that is what i write in my bloggs when i send to you all and your e-mails don't work. now, having said that, we have a task force who do you think commission suggestioned that the digesters

would be one person? -- [inaudible] learning the word liquid action and unthe sites and before this goes before the public utilities commission and you gregariously said look let us take this up bay couple of years or whatever. in the deliberations gather up, presentations, nobody mentions the historical facts. nobody really gets credit to the community. now, the chair because of his working in the environment sphere and because he has been in the bay view before and because he has been a legislature, he understand some things must be better than others who are doing things

remote control and by osmosis. this must stop. this must stop. having worked for the military, let me tell you we can do this in three years on a raw footing. we should is done it seven year ago. the only reason you don't do it because our heart is not in the right place. who are those people? have this been in specific heights had this been on knob hill or in the sunset, this would not be the case. so you are all still bringing these new people who have absolutely no idea how much the people in the bay view hunters point have suffered they have no idea. this guys should restrict not totally, and make you stand there in the night so those mosquitoeses can bite

them because that is what is going to happen. that area is prone to west nile virus, thank you very much. mr. brooks? >> good afternoon commissioners aaron brooks with the san francisco green party and local grass rots organization in our constituent and first of all, i'm pleased to hear about something i didn't know about which, is that the president is the founder of the prop 65 text. it. >> is it didn't get to the legislature and so tom haden and i had to go to the voters because i couldn't get a second anywhere in the legislation. that is a big deal. >> so i would concur with the frustration around the denialers, it's really out rages and i think that we do have a new staff now, it seems to be

more proactive but, i would say really, you know crack down on progresses and report make sure that if we are still not getting fast enough action six months from now that we start crack the whip on this prompt because it cannot continue the way it is. and i know that i have seen a lot of stuff in the record we report we had today about building a huge pipeline and shuttle waste water across the settle and a lot of environmental groups were not thrilled about and are not thrilled that we are going in that direction and so a lot of big engine here nearing to deal with the waste that comes out of the pipe but we are asking you to be cutting edge and you know renew the puc building is cutting edge on all of these thing and we need the sewer system program to go cutting edge and to may be make sure of the pelt project that are going to be done under the sewer

system improvement program that weaver working at something that you commissioner torres head me talk about and then you made a request to your staff to report back on urban come post in toilets and there are some new methyls that have come out and one is a section toilet that separates the solids and deals with them right there in the residential site so they never get into the system. so we need to not only solve what is happening at the end of the pipe we need to start preventing the beginning of the pipe because reminder folks according to tommy's report if you crunch the numbers, we could save 5 billion gallons that is billion with a b billion gallons of water every year if every is

using an urban come post toilet and filler and this could mean a huge amount of toxins being mixed up with sledge in our system and so i need you to mayor sure that you have two-three appointments on those times of i want toes. >> there are two other comments, i would like to make and #1, i think that we need to be sensitive to having healthcare modalities to help monitor so that we are not down the road being held liable for airborne contamination that we could have prevalented or at least had some impact on that it reminds me on the can says clusters in mc particle lan and parts of california and there was a high incidents of childhood cancer and it was contributed to the pesticides and that is not the matter here if you are going to move and

digest a certain area you are going to have to scwaive site and in this area you don't know what you are going to find and number two you don't know what is going to emerge and from my perspective you need to be in consultation with the folks at u.k. s f or at general hospital who are dealing with these infectious disease and impacts and what may be there and that we are looking forward and moving forward to having appropriate oversight and respect to that issue. somethingly, when we are dealing with the ammunition, i think we should put on the website a history of what has happened in the bay view and have mr. costa or somebody lune him to talk about a narrative or something on the website that we are aware of the history that has

occurred there and that we are concerned there about what history will be made later because it's a major project and it's going to have a major impact on the community that rate pairs in the city of san francisco will benefit from the sacrifice of some of the members of this community and so we aught to do that because so often which, is why i hate term limits is because so many you have young legislatures that don't have the history historical frame of reference and don't know how to stop the issues from happening again and these two commissioners here have had a huge impact including to the they have gotten things done and so they taught to be recognized for that just some thoughts. >> i think that is great and one thing that i did want to bring up is that we will be

instituting the register task force which includes neighbors and residents and they will be participating with us as we move forward with the project. they were an invaluable help to get us to this point and they came to a year and-a-half ago and testified to the this commission. >> and i believe you are supporting an oral history project in the bay view is that is correct? that is what i have been told. >> commissioner the answer is yes. give credit where credit is due to. >> any other public comments on this issue? . >> welcome commissioner. >> good afternoon on behalf of the some of the residents in the area and i want to thank you for moving forward on this project and also for future emphasize on jobs and whatever it can that i can to improvement community through the parks and garden

department. if things could be expedited because of the urgency, just listening to comment again, if we look at moving this project forward as quickly as we can and again, jobs that will be created if that can be considered also. >> thank you very much for your comments. anybody else on item seven a? all right? yesk, i'm sorry ... david felt man first two comments the gray, gasoline and clean logo which was developed for this program leading question on future presentations it was not this time but, i think it should be and it reinforces that it's not pipes vs. green infrastructure it's both and we have talked about that. >> all right. before and staff has solicited my input selfweeks ago on this and i was crick
