a few things to update on, we continue to move forward with finalizing the services that we need, the call center in tracking which puts customers and and out, working with noble america's on that. having some good discussions with them on that. will waiting for action on the board of supervisors as well as the contract for the energy and supplies. it is up for the first year in force of the committee, and subsequent board of supervisors to follow. we have had continuous discussions with local power on their ideas around enhancing the

bill the associated with the program. in fact, staff had a meeting with some of the advocates this morning on that subject. both of my remarks are in response to the request of the last meeting about opt-out and such. we wanted to give an update on the last little bit. analyzing the types of customers that make up the the average customer base here in san francisco, it would be in the high 40% for opt-out. we think it can get lower by

figuring out ways to target different communities, and different types of areas, and different attitudes or makeup of customers. we go through the deep analytical work and the statistical models to overlay what we can gather from market research in terms of asking customers what their attitudes are about the real ovals and the price premium a as well as overlain with records about demographics as well as things that related to public power and how people voted in various precincts like pg&e's coccyx team effort. it went down pretty handily in san francisco, but in other

ways, it went down more heavily than others. we're looking at various energy related matters on the ballot here in san francisco. commissioner campos: before you continue, i know that commissioner pimentel has a question. first of all, i forgot to thank the moembers of sfgtv staff. i also wanted to welcome our new a member, commissioner christina olague. with that, commissioner pimentel? commissioner pimentel: be no witch sides of the city have the highest opt-out rate? >> we don't know yet, we have projected rates. commissioner pimentel: do you know which side are more in

opt-out notices. commissioner campos: mr. campbell, as you're doing this analysis in looking at the data, when you think you will have a better sense of what the often- out number will be? >> we think it will have results to share about one month's time. commissioner campos: can you talk about if you are communicating with some of the advocates to make sure that the rate is as low as possible? >> we have discussions regarding local power work and they talk about off-out rates there. it is very much a plant discussion. we're keeping those dialogues open. just so i can be complete, the

proceedings related to the cpuc and state legislation, the latest intelligence is the cpuc is making a final decision on what the performance bond would be, and it is really an august timeframe. it is related to bonds for direct access. those are going through the process first. regarding the implementation of state legislation that we had, it is moving forward with proceedings of having their be enhanced code of conduct for how the utility's interact. we are very active in that proceeding. proceeding. we have been working with other
