enterprise for the improvement project number cf 411 r for the replacement project in the amount not to exceed $68 million. >> thanks for puc for being here. >> good morning supervisors i'm dan the water system improvement director sfpuc i'm here to talk about two items i'll pause between the items the first construction services agreement amendment with black and beach corporate with the respect process that is an agenda four and pause for the next item but speak to the construction services professional agreement with hatch mcdonald and all of them are critical projects for

the part of $4.80 billion prompt program this slide shows the water system serves san francisco which includes 2 hundred 6 million people in the bay area including the san franciscans and folks outside the san francisco bay area that is shown in orange and the two projects that we're speaking 6 circled in red which is the first place that the regional water in the bay area has the reservoirs merge with the hetch hetchy ac duty and enter it before it going to the bay division pipelines and the peninsula so this first item is to amend the construction contract with black and beach

corporations this project is one of the most critical water system improvement projects the largest project and the most complex on many levels we have and do have unanticipated geologic site positions that quoted the years by 3 years the original schedule was four years now over 7 it is 60 percent complete construction but we have another several years to go and in the geologic site i've talked about go ancient landslides that add cube yards to the excavation we need to extend the contract to support this critical project to provide ongoing support for the close

out it includes the construction contractors contract quality insurance inspection and close out this aerial photo shows a fairly recent shot the existing dam on the left an urban project completed in 1925 it was a replacement the existing demon a seismically vulnerable we've extended the capacity and encompassed a severe limits on this operations especially in a drought condition so we need to continue construction on this project so we can get this reservoir in full use in a timely manner to date 70 million excavation this is an excavation about seven hundred and 50 photo high and it is very complex on

many levels the sore is starting to take shape the new dam will be filling space for the comboift dam the most of the work on this project is in precipitation for the construction but most of the work in the foundation prep to make sure we have a confident foundation and so the request on this item to approve the black and beach the c s-11 contract we want to increase it $29 million not to exceed to $29 million and extend it for a total duration of 10 years and 8 months to continue construction and make sure we have the management on this project that is needed to

complete that critical project so with that i'll be happy to take questions. >> thank you, mr. rose your report first. >> yes. mr. chair and supervisor tang on page 3 of our report the total revised budget for the kald versus dam project $70,118 plus it include the black and beach for $38 million and the $28 million request for a total contract not to exceed 7 of $68 million and the expenditures to date again shown in table are $244 million plus table 4 which is on page 4 of our report details the requested

increase of $29 million with the proposed amendment to the contract we recommend i approve that legislation. >> thank you, mr. rose. >> supervisor tang. >> question on page 4 of the budget analyst report had two questions on the costs i so you r saw the outreach for example if so costing 86 hundred plus dollars what guess going going into the outreach i understand the scope of the project is important but expensive outreach. >> we recognize that's a lot of money for county outreach to put that in context this is the most important project and continues to get the most attention during construction there are species

which required engagement with the community both prior to construction and after construction or during construction but we have a number of issues in fact over the in connection few years we are going to have significant milestones that are going to require significant public outreach support and in keeping with the environmental justice and the benefits policy where we explicitly describe our commitment the public outreach is a huge part of that and selma is an active community people want to know what's going on driver's license is a lot of construction and one point plus billion dollars over the last several years in the valley and we have quick meetings and a lot of engagement with the folks in addition calaveres road it going goes obeying by the calaveres

biking route and californians use that during the construction our outreach folks are front and center with the biking groups as well as during an 18 most the cal versus county roads will be closed so with the biking groups and with others in the community to insure that goes well as well as law enforcement so we have three or four years left of significant milestones we also have parks along the wilderness and project sites so we actually update the community with our website as iowa the asbestos levels are and one of the neighbors the parks district is very interested in the topic

and we have an engagement with them on a regular basis as well and regular updates to the county of synowe there is a school at the north side of the valley i'm to refer to it as a high contact sport to make sure we implement the project smoothly. >> so the $686 million is for the remaining project. >> that's correct. >> that didn't account for the other projects. >> that's correct. >> we have a full-time community person on the project site they will wound down their time as the project you know gets towards the end that person helps poem be informed about blasting that be took place and notice to the community she fields calls and gets a lot of

calls to make sure that people understand when the blast is going to occur and making sure they're not on hiking trails and so there is a lot of engagement on a daily basis. >> okay. i mean i definitely understand the level of outreach it is high to me but i'll move on i want to clarify the other direct charges the $1.4 million. >> the other direct charges are expenses that are not staff time such a vehicles and project on a steep terrain required for the management team and the team pays for part of that those are as a result of being there and

laboratory costs for materials that are needed for the construction management team all of those expenditures have unknown staff time. >> thank you. >> thank you supervisor tang seeing no other questions open up for public comment would anybody in the public like to comment on item number 4 okay seeing none, public comment is closed supervisor tang. >> all right. well i will make a motion to forward out the resolution with a positive recommendations to the full board. >> we'll take that without objection. >> madam clerk can you please call item 5 and resolution authorizing the general manager of the san francisco public utilities commission to execute the matter inform europeans project not to exceed of

services for the oracle duty to deliver the liability for 2 point i6r million people in the bay area so this action approves the amount for hatch mcdonald to increase the amount not to exceed $19.5 million and expend it by one year for a total of seven years this will allow us to complete this critical project as well i'll be happy to answer any questions. >> okay. thank you why don't we go mr. rose to our report and to questions. >> yes. mr. chair on page 8 the total revised budget for the tunnel is $30,900,000 plus it includes the construction
