i'd like to conclude it is available on the website we have a few extra copies and we're ready to answer any questions you have. >> opening it up for public comment and i'm sure there's questions any public comment? okay >> sue hester i didn't bring the maps about this sea level rise and based on on state and federal i've given them out it's important to look at it this map

this map shows it's on page 8 at the bottom the big area south of market which is central selma is the marshy area you needed to look at the mashes the map you've seen is the three includes a lot of file downtown it ends just north of the bay bridge so i can because i've been digging into this is virtually the entire area east of 86 montgomery street down to market street is you'll file it's all file and you need to pay attention it's downtown area of the mashes includes the vast easier south of market and when you have an earthquake you see where the areas are mashes

are no one was on the planning commission at the time of the one i don't know of anyone at the planning staff vast areas south of market had flooding filed with destruction and people died people died there as well as in the ronald reagan it got the news because if of the upper class people people that were homeless lost their lives i know there were there were flood complications when you have an earthquake we're going to have another earthquake we'll have another earthquake guaranteed i

happen to live near a mash where one 80 and 280 come in it's a march i didn't live here then we have to paid attention to marshes and creeks part of it goes into the mission it was collin chosen because of the bay mission delores so mission south of market some weird places that used to be river front property are really inhimself we need to pay attention one of those days we'll allow people to get involved in speaking and is there any additional public comment no.

>> okay public comment is closed. commissioner antonini. >> yes. sue hester makes a good point there have a lot of places coming from la golden gone down into 7th avenue there was a couple of buildings that clarpdz because they were you know built on file and didn't have constructive tree foundations so that's not a sea level rise issue per say but those areas exist been the alameda boulevard i know every time there's an article it talks about the flooding in basements aside i have a question the first have we be able to measure the self rise for example, in the last 5 years i mean they're anticipating does anyone have

information as to what is 3rekd or not. >> yeah. there's quite a bit information on sea level rise we have the oldest measure gage in san francisco so we have excellent data for the conditions theirs 8 inches of sea level rise measured. >> will 82 for the last one hundred years. >> it's obsoleting and expected to accelerate this is based on levels and the planning department i didn't preventive to be climate scientists but our committee look at the scientists with experts throughout the coastal zone and the state and federal and we're sure it

natural council report is the best and . >> and then it appears in your maps even without the measures that are being put into place the map for 21 hundred at high tide doesn't show high water penetrating but it shows extensive amounts most is a depth of 4. >> that's steep inches. >> oh that's more i was going to say 2 inches. >> if we were only that luke. >> one would assume if you you build a sea level some of it could percolate up underneath. >> again, the guidance document

is not recommending specific adaptation strategies that's a framework on how the capital departments and city should engage in the process that's a progress of evaluating the availability and prioritizing areas and dpw appropriate strategies and stlz there are many to choose under some are appropriate what is protecting and others so varying from seawalls to the elevation and the philosopher allowing flooding to occur in easier to redirect flood flees that are not harmful to parks and roadways and other strategies that can be considered. >> it's a sensitive building you've encourage them to rise the - >> the analogy or the extreme

that example that are commonly discussed in those controllers if you're planning on building a nuclear plant you should design it and build it is well protected if you're building a park would you might do is use salt tolerant landscaping so it really depends on on what you're doing. >> thank you. >> commissioner johnson. >> thanks real quick appreciate the presentation glad we're doing something we're talking about the sea level rise not an earthquake want to make that distinction and the second thing on the slide you talk about the different agencies and department that are collaborating on what to do

about incorporating the science and the guidance into the capital process i understand we have a list of our capital agencies and ocii has kind of overseen the demonstrated in hunters point on treasure island where they've actually got the most active working to counter act the sea level rise which is a separate thing so i know i would love to see that included in the discussions i know they have the background they're going the actual constricts in incorporating the design would like to see that and glad to see we're actually making presentations and not just waving our hands into the decision marking but incorporating the decision making i would on treasure island and our plan was to have

a raft in our house (laughter). >> i'm glad we're moving beyond that. >> commissioner moore. >> i'm proud the city is stepping is to the line as early as 2001 when i started to be on the first cap of treasure island there were no sea level rise we had a lawyer that was dealing with sea law and grudgingly the engineers finally came around and predicted sea level rise would not come around the rest of the world picked up on the discussion i want to ask you i wonder if you're all aware of the phenomenal work done by bcdc taylor's there's a document called sea level rise no san

francisco bay area that details with the collective aspect the assets do end at the line in the sand which is the limit of the city and county of san francisco but there's a lot of discussion i'm concerned about the vulnerability and the seat go viability looks at both private and public rodent there are forward-looking approaches particle the a i a has been actually to start leading particle the residential design no sea level rise and tsunami effected areas to look at the housing looking at the ground floor there's an example and it will be interesting as we're looking asset protection to look at those models as well bcdc has

has spoken about the high-level rise in the document that's probably not available if you have someone speak shares with you and classifying 4 types of development they're talking about the title denying development and the economy driven development and the tiled tiled and economic development i want that type of discussion when our looking at did private robot of sea level rides in treasure island some of that is being picked up by la interior as moving into the future title experiencing means sea level embracing all sea level rise

experiencing i hope you can find the document and looked at it it from bcdc it's an informative document. >> just to respond we've coordinated with about b.c. dshg and the protection council and the atmospheric administration a whole slur of management and sea level adaptation planning. >> if in commission can get a hand on 80 this document it's a wonderful read. >> thanks for sharing that i know you have great interest in the bay a couple of quick comments this is a storm surge when people read about sea level rise it's a temporary surge a couple of questions it's kind of

a dumb question i've been curious on the ocean side during a 5 day incident if you're standing at the ferry building will we have no more impact inside the bay than outside the bay. >> it's not a doumg question it's a complicated system and what happens inside the bay and the outer coast is indemnify that's what the puc did separate studies the storm wave conditions we captioners at ocean beach are more severe than inside san francisco bay area and we're doling e dealing with extreme storm conditions swells up to thirty feet that produce large waves on the shoreline, however

that being said with the top graphic with the high bluff and the development is a set back if you look at the most extreme works is in the studies we have much less of a worse case scenario scenario we have wave splash and run off effecting the great highway our biggest problem is the coastal erosion that's definitely an issue with the sfpuc and something the puc is taking the lead on but the planning department is definitely involved in a large way for solutions oh, my gosh on the bay side we don't experience the storm waves and run off conditions in fact our significant one hundred year storm surge condition is one

hundred feet on each side, however, we have low lying areas next to the shoreline in terms of the flood impacts that we need to respond to we have much more serious situation and . >> so more erosion control on the coastal side. >> it's a combination of the steep topographic and the high bluffs the best protection is high grounds those are not areas that are filled we have the existing seawall and the ocean beach we have a high wall and the highway and the other side. >> commissioner moore kind of touched on that the perfect storm the worse case scenario you add the delta levys and the

breakage how does that come into play that's a concern it's in front of us today maybe 50 year seawall rise. >> i'm not pretending to be an environment what happens in the delta and other parts of bay will not likely have effects on san francisco because the ocean is enumeration so water awnings the floods areas of the innuendo the delta levies would not effect in my i think measurable way the sea level that we say experience on our coast in san francisco. >> any another questions? okay. thank you very much >> commissioners that places you on general public comment i i have no speaker cards. >> any general public comment

seeing none, i want to close this meeting and thank you commissioner president wu she's done a fantastic job (clapping.) leading this commission and the city there a challenging time thank you for your late hours and
