seat and informing policy discussions so what does it mean to minimize flooding we have a high-risk this graph shows you across the bottom each of the policy from the 5 year to the one hundred storm the blue line the volume of floodwater a small percentage the rain that has fallen for example, in the 5 year storm that 25 million gallons of flowed water on the blue line this is 4 percent of volume generated by the storm we have a 96 percent of rain from that storm and 4 percent is flooding given the current infrastructure what the red shows underneath is if we were to implement projects that can manage the 5 year storm

and eliminate high flood risk and potentially leave lower realistic water on the streets which is it between curves and parking lot not going into buildings and causing damage 4. 7 million gallons remaining as flood volume on the street there is diminishing returns as stayed we're trying to remove every drop of water from the street we say minimize we're talking about minimum alter flood risk and remaining especially. >> that's based on what size area. >> statewide we will look at a map in a couple of slides in the

presentation that is will show you how it is distributed across the city. >> okay. so when we think about what is the level of investment this table shows you our for our different policy options what have the projects look like if we are trying to minimize flooding in a 5 year storm versus a 100 percent storm for example, in a 5 year storm we'll need to put in pipes or up size 61 million dollars of pipes but provide protection against one hundred it the one thousand miles a quarter of our streets torn up to replace an up size or install new pipes it basically gives us the option the last two items surface

retention have opportunity to integrate infrastructure in thinking through specifics and the row at the bottom i put on the screen the capital costs associated with the option as you can see for meeting the current 5 year storm we're looking at $2 billion of capital funds in 2030 but if we wanted to provide protection against a 100 percent storm upward of $100 million i'll looked at a closer dive on costs i just shouted the range from $2 billion to $11 billion and the way it splits off we have

some planned projects underway about 7. billion dollars worth of work we think about the $2 billion to meet our goal we have plans to do a 3rd of that work so the remaining 1. $3 million is new funding that is needed to get completely to our goal of a 5 year storm as you can see how that goes up the line up to one hundred year storm. >> this is based on as citywide. >> yeah. >> have you broken down into the other areas. >> this is eliminating high and very highest flood risk citywide it does include the areas where we have heard a lot from the repairs of people that live in those areas but there are other areas that are

experiencing high flood risk that are included isn't cost is taking a step back and look at the transparent approach that tells us where the high-risk in the city and addressing those particular areas altogether. >> citywide. >> so of 7 point plus billion dollars that is including some of the projects opening we're planning to do and then the new funding line would have the new funds needed for some of the other areas we don't have ongoing projects. >> so another way to look at cost is through our life cycle and this is what we use for our cost benefit analyze it includes not only the cost but the opm

this is in $2,016 what you see is that the life cycle is a combination of goals with the capital costs in that value as well as the opm and present costs those numbers 2. $3 billion to $15 billion for the rank of flood protection is what you'll see across all the policy options moving forward so i'll take that same 2. to $15 million and put them on a graph this is the life cycle and combrafd against on the bottom ac excess so this tells you that it is shows for the volume of the gallons of flooding we take off the street what the

different projects that tells you that the costs associated and a linear curb there is a unit cost for removing the water off the streets i'll take the same numbers to a lot of almost $16 billion on a simple graph this has all the flood policy options from 5 year storm to one hundred year storm and explain the benefit costs this is the cost does the life cycle but the costs it takes to maintain the infrastructure that would provide this level of protection in a certain design storm those are unconstrained in the infrastructure we spent more money so the next slide shows the benefit side alone what you see in the benefit graph on the left

hand this is the baseline for today is infrastructure in place if we do nothing no flood projects today is system in place and we run one hundred year timespan this one hundred year timespan is the storm for all sizes one one hundred and 25 year and modeling based but a hypothetical 100 percent timespan that follows storms of all sizes and what that baseline economic impacts of flooding on the for left the total impact today no new infrastructure we'll see 4. $7 billion of economic impacts over that one hundred year time period now for each of the different pop flood options in the 5 year versus the one hundred year it

is associated with the projects to provide that level of protection so for the 5 year storm with the 5 year project set in place what you see in red the $1.0 billion is the impact in the same 100 percent year timespan put the 5 year plans into the model and run the same 100 percent rainfall pattern and one billion dollars remaining out of that 4. 7 with that tells us the difference between the green line is the impacts we avoided by building those projects that's the benefit is that instead of experiencing 4. $7 billion that impacts over 10 years we means we're avoided 3. $7 billion in impacts that's the benefits the green is the

avoided or the benefit of the projects as you can see by build outably our 56 year project set we get 80 percent of that back and we build bigger and bigger projects we get closer and closer to eliminating the impacts that we expect to see if we did nothing so this graph puts them on the same side by side this is the benefit cost ratio a simple calculation in goad and basically benefits divided by costs green by blue and you can see that in a 5 year storm the benefit cost ratio is 1.6 and one point one and large storms

it dropped below the thresholds that is sort of like economically justifiable expenditure you'll want an equal return in terms of what you're spending on a project so when you get into the large storm as you can see the benefit cost ratio drops blow one so the liv let's talk about the 5 year storm and 10 year storm the 5 year is the current standard our current goal we've already recognized we need to spend 2. $3 billion to get to that place if we make a deliberate decision for the 10 year storm we have to recognize we're acknowledging we need an additional $1.4 billion the difference between the costs

of the 5 and one there storm the benefits the difference in the benefits is 4. plus billion dollars to get a 4. billion dollars return in the scenario the dollars is benevolence one percent of the land in san francisco that floods whether we choose to protect against a 5 year or a 10 year storm as an increased level of flood protection most of dollars will be benefiting the land area that floods san francisco less than 1 percent i'll take a look at the land area that shows you the area that is effected by flooding at any land area you see a combination of low risk and high-risk and it is included

in the structures that are flooding the footprint of the land use i'll show you a series of green dots those green dots are the area that floods in model simulations in a 5 year storm their scaled to the map the dot is scale to the neighborhood and the scale to the map if you take for example, this mission dot right here remember we said that mission is a big area of the city and we broke down so a smaller area this green dot represents the total area scaled to the map that floods in the 5 year storm with today is infrastructure in place now if we were to implement our 5 year project set say we fast forward and continue into the future with the projects we've

implemented the next click you'll see the yellow documents nestled inside the green they if show up on this particular map the low risk flooding we're leaving on the street we're eliminating the high reflex most of green goes away with little dots in the middle that is the area that is still flooded by definition that the low risk flooding one of the - example that is kind of covered by the scrolling text here cayuga is the general not the - where cayuga is the larger cayuga shows the yellow that is remaining after we implement and in large part from one parking lot a large land area with

shallow water that flows from one street to another street no buildings 19 are impacted the safeway parking lot a large area of low risk flooding that makes the areas bigger in the cayuga dot and a dot what we're calling a bit of cayuga the cayuga corridor about a mile-long catch-22 you go street from 280 about a mile and what you can see on your handout but not showing up here text that is scrolling on the screen that there is essentially no flooding no projects that are geared towards that neighborhood the last thing i'll put on the slide now is a dark green ring on the outside of the light green ring so it is this is the

- the additional area that floods in a 10 year storm getting back to how much of an impact are we going to are an area of flood protection 5 year versus the 10 year storm this will not show up i have a blow up that shows one part of the city the dark green has the most impact that the 10 year storm has the most incremental flood area with the 5 year storm even here the dark green is still not much burn the light green so again, the light green floods in a 5 years and the other green in a 10 year storm if we choose to address a 10 year storm we'll spend more money but the area we'll impact is an incremental amount of the city in the same

neighborhoods just a little bit more land area that will be residing benefits to. >> so there's it varies with flood a natural communicates of typography; correct? >> they're all low areas in the typography but you see that - if you think about the fang the green the first green circle i showed you what happens today and the yellow sarmg what happens when we put in improvements that we can make to minimize flooding and identified those by adding to the collection system by capacity or pipe capacity we can further reduce the areas that are flooding but all allow lying areas and yeah - >> but that typography existed

before san francisco existed. >> in many cases like land settlement that is something that didn't exist before but if you build on waterways grounds you might end up with settlements is that a result of settlement. >> thank you. >> okay. so let's talk about rates. >> this graph shows. >> rates are subjected to change this is independent of the options we're talking about today, the current value is $51 a month based on a minimal water consumption in today on the far left side of the graph the next 20 years with the oh, my god

we're looking at the bill over 20 thousand and this is not a new graph rate in the past what is new is the lines on top that shows how rates can additionally be impacted by the policy options we're talking about today so these incremental lines shows what happens with the rates over the next 20 years with the 5 year storm inhibition if we try to implement the whole 5 year goal to get to our 5 year to the 100 percent storms so we'll take one snapshot that look at the year three 6 and what you see that the $51 a month the current sale and add on the projected rates to get a state of good repairs with the ssip treatments and ssip

collects and omgsz and for each the policy options as you can see the additional incremental rate increases relative to the other policy options that would be required on top of what is planned how we're planning to increase the rates this is one representation of how rates increase there is an absorption but more to be done to make sure we implement in a sustainable way can i ask a question. >> you said earlier that one $.3 billion additional will be needed in 5 years it translates to 15 on the left. >> that's additional. >> additional.

>> so the president 7 is accounted for in the middle bar; right? >> this next slide puts everything together with the benefits and costs and rate impacts for the policy options you'll see that altogether. >> next steps the public has a continue to have opportunities for input so we've this shows what we've been done to date on may 24th and the workshop on the top in the center at the second half of the year continuing the outreach with the new policy information we have generated through the study and then in early 2017 kept expect to come back to the po board with a specific recommendation so today we've hoped to provide

you an introduction not policy options there's more work to do into sb in addition analysis towards having a specific recommendation we'll be present in the months to come that will include development of prioritization of projects with the flood risk that is to the question which neighborhoods we're looking at now and next on the list and implementing and phasing approach that takes into account the other priorities that the cca is facing and how it integrate and the future we maintain the affordability and to the extend possible try to capture of sin i didn't see with other xoold programs like r&r in interdepartmental opportunities to make the project more cost

effective so that's what we're looking at in the next half of this this year. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> i have a couple of questions here. >> so we know that the climate is changing does this - and it seems to me incommissioner fetu see the sea level rise the waterways should rise has that been incorporated into some of the data. >> looking at sea level rise is definitely part of the analysis we did for this study but mostly with respect to the way this discharges can go into the bay and the ocean so there's a higher receiving water level then the water has a harder time

and can back up the system more when it comes to indication sea level rise there is the mayor has convened a corresponded sea level rise correspondent committee and puc lead the effort for the rise indication that is used citywide for the capital purposes we're well aware of the indication zone for the sea level rise scenario that was not considered in - the purpose of this study was to look at one - the purpose of study to look at what we need to do to the collection system to booster our resilience against flooding not seawalls on a corroborative basis and

necessarily come back to 100 percent for the financing of those types of infrastructure we were focused on the collection and our puc assets to understand how and when we spend money on the collection system but for implementation it is a type of type of infrastructure like seawalls and things like that that if you're talking about over topping. >> i wasn't talking about that. >> one is that sea level rise it definitely impacts the way we discharge we can - and address that to a 5 year standard or whatever standard i think the other is the intense rain for the shorter duration in a 5 year storm may come more frequently that is something that really none can model you know how frequent those storms will come over a

long time. >> with respect to the changing of patterns how those changes will look into the future so we don't have like a basis on which to do a sensitivity analysis for rainfall there is no agreement in the community about how those changes will happen and the duration of rainfall be impacted we are through as the puc is partnering with berkley national lab to spend more time and energy on that piece of science to quantify and bridge into that kind of an analysis. >> i would say no matter what the science you know after

cooperating with the science shows or demonstrates that the quality of san francisco will not change so the circles we've showed you are the circles that will be impacted with the new 5 year storm or 10 year storm and the cost of the infrastructure you know pretty much be the same for that. >> the 5 year storm maybe a 4-year storm. >> right. >> which is so - yes on the storm piece the second part of storm question i think there is something in this i think dictation question binundation e hiring there will be more cop coming from the top i'd like to better understand we wade

through this policy decisions if there is information we can factor in and be on the storm i understand not a consensus but work that has been done and frequency as well as the question of sea level rise which are projected 3 to 6 feet in the next year's by the end of the century that focuses the underground system in san francisco and if this might inform our decision or not one last question i was struck by this comment you said that you know the large impartialerm

easier- if there is some strategy in green or whatever it is i know we're talking about fees and whatnot is there something we can do infrastructure wise to really be smart about the big impermeable surfaces and responsible for so much of the flooding. >> stephanie was referring to if we were to spend money for 5 year storm you know projects what areas would still have flooding on them and she talked about parking lots will have standing water that is low risk not condos with you know you have been impacted this is what being at risk you're talking about.

>> i think we completely agree with you trying to minimize the amount of impermeable surfaces with with respect in a process we can influence have an influence so our stormwater management ordinance trying tries to do that looks at managing the onsite and you know that kind of gateway that a project has to go through before approval we are trying to make an impact on that has made a big impact citywide. >> and the other thing we've tubed when we come to you with our new rates structure we are definitely considering san francisco entertainment commission fee that leads to the

square of our area at risk material. >> uh-huh. >> i think that is great and we'll talk about that piece of work but says here san francisco entertainment commission run off from i am partially areas when it comes to flooding as we continue to understand what those are i mean there is an opportunity to reduce the size of the i am partially site. >> i think it depends on the intensity of the rain if you have a green infrastructure is won't help but green infrastructure you have time the soil can absorb the water if it quickly becomes saturated this

is why it is important to model this we can spend money for the green structure but a lot of the short duration and you know the amount of rain it will have an impact that's why we want to look at the dollars. >> we talk about the impermeable surfaces we have to of the mechanism we can influence and so we have the short-term management and the renovation but the portable the grants program we do m if someone wants to drain the water oilth we have grant programs for that we can we're making impacts but which we cannot control the land itself we have to get

creative how we can influence property owners to do that on their property. >> that's right it's not just about that but the impermeable surfaces and minimize this. >> questions or comments commissioner vice president moran. >> the investment in the various sets are prioritized by value the projects the capital investments are designed to remove high flood risk in a neighborhood experiencing high flood risk a project put in place to provide storage or provide something that's risk is determined by dollars. >> that risk is kind of like anorexic scorisk score.

>> to understand the benefits so let's see - >> let me give you an example where it question was leading one of the areas we keep on talking about is 17th street and fulsome that is pretty much industrial i don't know how it stacks in terms of dollar values of flood cost and i'm curious as to whether that area gets attention in terms of the investment and infrastructure improvements or whether the economic value is low enough maybe it didn't get that full. >> so we didn't prioritize each area and rate them we felt

this the reason is that we should make a citywide policy than that for the areas that don't need it prioritize the city to come to that standard that was our thinking. >> but i will is that 17th street and fulsome area showed up as a high-risk area because it is changing rapidly and there are residential and commercial enterprises there and their subject to a lot of structure densely populated area so a lot of structural risk to property damage and things like that that play into it being a high flood risk designation. >> the approach is very

rational and just make sense but the couple of areas were there are noteworthy and local impacts there is considerable community interest already organizing and expressed we need to know added what level of investment how those folks do in terms of flood risks so i think the citywide approach is right but we also need to be able to tell some specific places like what this will do for them. >> that also lead me to an observation we talked about no matter how much money there will be flooding and things we may want to do to help safety net i

assume those things cost money i don't know those costs are incorporated into the costs benefits or not. >> we're trying to establish a fair standard for the city that everyone sort of gets an equal level of a ratepayer an equal level of protection but a long list of additional measures we're talking about not capital in nature not cost a lot of money capital dollars wise they're problematic so thinking about you know changing the brad is one example we can superintendent carranza flood zones vulnerable to flooding and require that any new construction or major renovation

has to incorporate flood prove construction techniques and over time the areas will be protected has we develop another example the flood insurance a lot of confusion about flood insurance if i called our flood insurance agent they'll tell you you're not eligible but worked with fumbled to clear up the sources of confusion and partnered with fema for a training for agent to help them understand that flood insurance is available for everyone like an earthquake you know you can pay a certain amount of construction dollars to booster our home but if you get a bigger one may want to have earthquake insurance you don't know what will come

>> my point if we approach a policy with long term ongoing costs for survivalist north or medication those costs should be in the sidewaltuation. >> so if i'm understanding the two questions for clarification most of the flooding is caused by combined water; correct? >> not. >> no so generally, we think about flooding on the street in most areas of the street is it so stormwater it is stormwater run off by in certain areas that are low lying like mission 17th street and fulsome is an example we can have storms i don't know

if you remember the profile of that neighborhood there is a bowl right there and water rises to the lowest point as the system gets more and more full and water can come out of the system the other thing i want to point out it causes flooding is the catch basins that is something that caused a lot of flooding that's why we're out asking the dpw to clear a lot of the capture baselines that didn't has nothing to do with with the capital capacity of the sewers but water can't get into the sewer system so which ties to the definition that that is san francisco entertainment commission but now we're talking about well, if it operationally is able to get into the system the system didn't have the capacity to hold it so what can get sweet spot system flows to

the low lying areas but before there are certain areas or areas where water comes through the pipe and pressure through the system. >> on that note in terms of the bowl to understand this is like a trumpet like a horn it is an opening to get do in a storm no matter what is available not able to empty the drain quick enough; correct? >> the bowl on 17th street the graphic bowl. >> so there's a combination had the system is so full it starts of pressureries you can have water coming out of the system into the bowl and stormwater that can't get into the system so you'll end up flooding out the bowl from two systems the stormwater coming

downed the hill off of twin peaks as far as what we can do to affiliate /* alleviate but to move water au from the area but, either move water away quickly or store a place for the water to go. >> and the thing i'd like to point out that a lot of the solutions although it is you know small pocket of area of the city but you will have to actually have pipe along to. >> a mile and a half. >> a mile and a half to relieve the pressure so the impact won't be just to the area but impact to that the solution in as well.

>> and would echo commissioner morans with the people that live in those areas like you stand an intense problem where were you live right there and difficult situation but i think hearing more information on the medics of predicting i guess the insistent rainy struggle with el nino right here in the middle so will happen climatic change and sea level rise is a complication i'll glad you're work working with you. >> and berkley. >> that's a good thing thank you. >> commissioners? i would like to look at the model again which is slide 12

>> so as i understand the duration of our history on the different models the only difference the increase in the model; correct? >> i'm sorry which slide and 12. >> page 12 slide 12. >> oh, i'm sorry you're right. >> i guess that will be 24. >> 24. >> the slide. >> the cow part of that. >> 23. >> yeah. >> one before that. >> okay so any question is this objective obviously the 3 hour period my question is there, there any other issues 3 should

be brought into the models. >> with respect to the rainfall. >> i'm trying to figure out how to express this when i was at 3u7 39 there are other factors that come into the model my questions are those the only factors or other things that should be in here. >> the hydraulic model is a representation of our physical system and it has any pipe or manhole or pump station is represented in the model and we - can use it to either rap indicate or propose a new

project and what happens with the new project we apply a rainfall this chart is showing you different design storms that would be applied as an input to the model we have all the pipes built into the model and see how the water flows and can't get in that kind of analysis. >> well carrying that forward i would think that in this model there should be what kinds of of surface and yeah. yeah. >> in your models themselves. >> sorry. >> uh-huh. >> but not broke down in a certain way it is we have our existing conditions and then we can simulate a different scenario

you might have more permeable - but the model has a recommendation open the ground and propose changes on the ground and see what changes that happens during a rain forest. >> okay. my feeling is that our system would handle thing differently depending on the surface. >> so the modeling we do account for assumptions about would like for example, impermeable areas of certain sub watersheds are accounted for we simulate in the future we look at assuming that the development happens at a certain pace and the stormwater patterns are followed by the vrpdz and in parking lots and buildings they

have to manage their short-term onsite that projection is accounted for that in the modeling scenarios. >> thanks. >> anything else commissioners, thank you for your presentation and take public comment on this item. >> one card here. >> blaine bachelor. >> good afternoon good afternoon. >> i get 3 minutes; correct? >> correct. >> thank you for the opportunity to speak today you know me i live in the mission terrace and hundreds of folks that are effected by this sewer failure with the excrement in businesses like to show you a

video from december 14th i'm sorry 2015. >> that's 7.4 inches of rainfall that's what it accident i applaud after all you that have been asking questions about the cost and solutions i feel like today is the first die many residents have been heard commissioner moran you mentioned this as difficult situation that is an absolute nightmare we bought our home in san francisco we want a place to raise our family sorry i'm - very emotional and it's been a nightmare 3 months before the flood happened twice and to think we've been trying to raise a single-family in a home we

don't know from the rainfall is going to bring poop into our basement has been nothing short oath crisis so i applaud you for kg intelligent questions i'm the only person that made it to the meeting i want to underscore it effects hundreds of people across district we are aware the issues of the costs costs and no fancy graph to talk about the costs we have to deal with this every time is rains if that flooding will happen again 72 hours not flooding but sewer an infrastructure not a top graphal issue not unfixturesable but ignored at the cost of too many people

we had a neighbor is close to divorce over this situation i appreciate you guys to look at solutions and again, i've gone off of script but i want to thank you for the work you've done and thank you for the studies but i want to emphasize that it is time to stop with the outstanding and start action i know that solutions are not for 3 years off this is way two along to continue this i'm available for comments you have my e-mails happy to provide any more information i can and thank you, again, for the time to speak today. >> thank you very much speaking we appreciate that. >> thank you. >> one question you've been here before i remember but where is your property. >> other corner of cayuga if i

could get thirty more seconds the public health is a huge concern the city comes out with workers to clean up our stuff hazmat and to think miff any dr told me to get tested this is like hiv and other things but the mayor is coming out and we're still dealing was that this the end of our street as you can see that is the end of cayuga avenue on december 3rd, 2014. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. >> thank you, again time. >> any other any public

comment on this item? >> hello, my name is silvia johnson. and i think we need entering challenge on this to work on this you know area to - i have already heard a lot of these areas that put in water diseases grow i want to make it more able to see this isn't move forward interchanging need to be moved and the public needs construction work to keep the area - i wanted to put a new construction building control

to where they have beams when this slide goes and they can go up and that the surface can disappear if there's any problems in this area. >> and i think we need you think the cost of this probably wouldn't be as much i explained how i like this done in this construction flood area and it would probably go a little bit more in some areas and a little less others. >> thank you very much for your comments. >> any other public comment on this item? thank you and we look forward to

continue this conversation and really getting more information science and data what our opposite with mostly next item, please. >> item 10 the consent calendar calendar, are considered to be routine and may be acted upon by a single roll call vote of the commission. there will be no separate discussion of these items a member of the commission, the public, or staff so requests removed from the consent calendar and considered as a separate item at this or a future hearing. 10 a approval of the authorization of the increase of agreement and b an increased in the contract costs contingency in the amount of $490,000 and increase to the existing contract duration contingency up it to two hundred plus calendar

days and authorize modifications to the contract for a total contract amount of one hundred 90 plus and a duration up to 2 thousand 25 ken active calendar days in award of the contract amount off $6 million plus, to the lowest qualified responsibly and responsive bidder manipulative and authorize a memorandum of understanding with the rec and park department in connection with the construction on the lands owned or occupied by s f p r d e approve the execution of adapttion for the public utilities commission 2016

disclosure report. >> is there a request to remove any of the items. >> the rec and park item. >> what number is that or letter. >> c. >> c we will remove item 10 c from the consent calendar anything else can i get a motion to approve the rest of the consent calendar. >> so moved. >> second. >> item? consent calendar. >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> that motion carries okay. let's goes to item 10 c. >> can i get a short report. >> 10 c. >> yeah. >> general manager is there somebody that can speak to 10 c. >> kathy howe. >> this project is the fattens

of our peninsula pipeline we did phase one and phase two under the water system improvement program and this last pieced is most of it operationally is in san francisco it is to repair values and replace some pipeline this is out of old steel pipes. >> is this mou natural gases or egress. >> thank you kathy i move. >> a second any public comment on this item? >> hello, my name is silvia johnson. and he was talking about this pipeline in emergency basis

pipeline and how - to approve it for the construction these are - i apologize for my inclines and emergencies for tariffs when the processes this line in pipeline that maybe connected to the bureau pipelines sometimes because they need entering changing in a

different process and how my. >> thank you further >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? next item, please. >> that motion carries. >> item 11 discussion and possible action to adapt a san francisco public utilities commission strategic plan 2020. >> good afternoon good afternoon julia atm for external foyers i'm presenting the 2020 strategic plan for the requirement of our charter i presented an overview of the plan at the commission meeting in march poeblt and today, i'm walk you through through the plan again in your packet and talk about the alignment with our current agency and next steps as we shift into

implementation. >> so i want to take a moment to look at the purpose of strategic plan in march general manager kelly was the driving force and felt we needed a high-level agency wide road map to prioritize our efforts across the agency not an operating plan but a high-level strategic plan and looking at looking at to go align our work with a watering that functions as an organization and an opportunity to you improve to look at best practices nationwide to share information across the departments and approving the efficiency nationally and the mayor this past year required all departments to provide a strategic apparently that works

welling well, we embarked on the properties in this request and lastly we want to commend build on the sustainability plan the executive team began this essentially firmly our existing value so as you recall our mission statement to provide our customers with high quality and reliable water and services and in a manner that values the environmental interests and our future focus we are an initiative stewardship the volumes are unchanged, however, our core values the bedrock of what we stand for and supporting those are felt it is easy to

remember and describe no leads or changes but an important place to start and leading us to closer to our vision with that, i'll jump into the goal areas. >> so this slide lays out the 6 goals we decided to focus on i'll spend a lot of time on the details on each one so the first goal around reliability and assess this goal maintaining the service level to our customers and perform our core communications as efficiently and a as possible and apply the asset practices consistent so we can manage the risk or failure and make the decisions in a cooperated and strategic fashion and obviously about make sure the sfpuc can provide for urban certainties as we think about major priorities

we don't call out the capital improvement and the water system in the plan those infrastructure projects are under this goal as we upgrade our system the water enterprise is a way in addressing obviously one with the level of goals and obviously forbids the service our organization of excellence addresses how to institutionalize and approve the efficiency we want to consistently look at the best practices and areas that are prioritized are health and safety and customer service both core values for the technology to approve effectiveness much of the work is underway with the

customers and a strategic plan the technology strategic plan and executive workshops we'll had to increase and approve and expand the health and safety protocols the next is the effective workforce for the sfpuc to have an engagement in a workforce we are facing challenges as a significant workforce nears retirement and those objectives focus on suhr the future employees require the skills and experience to continue to provide a high-level of service we want to create stronger pathways in the agency and develop a culture of high performance again, some of the work is underway the workforce division under the leadership of within person has a competent model for clarifications and

with our human resources are looking at the employee orientation and working at the employee orientation with commissioner courtney we we'll come back at the end of july the next area is financial sustainability the utilities is capital intensify and require ongoing funding of not only operations and maintenance but significant capital investment this area is about backbone the organization and critical for making sure we have financial foundation for each the goals and be able to keep the mission for example, our ability to weather the drought and revenues without reopening the rate is in the financial planning that happened years ago and in the strategic plan that goal focuses on at loernlt financial plan

with the costs if this fair and provided more comprehensive methods and the stewardship entrusted to our care- the replacement project is a major endeavor that effects the enterprises the business services that are also look to build on the work of asset management to refine the process we're really proud the sfpuc got a bond upgrade from the s&p that was raised to a did you believe a with millions of dollars it is critical as we embark on the multi billion dollars funding of ssip the upcoming rates to prepare for the new rate package is good.

>> the next goal the stakeholder and community interest that speaks to the values of services we are seeking proactively for the communities to understand the needs and concerns and implement the changes and also striving to build a stronger relationship with the stakeholders so as we move forward with future rate changes allies to understand the needs for investment in this system through our work in the southeast around the improvement program and community facility with the roll from cleanpowersf and end with the neighborhood impacts we are exploring and testing new methods for the community and lastly this goal is improving the internal consumption as we grew up into the strategic plan other major initiated will be implementing new ways of engaging with our

employees go such internal surveys and use of share point which is like salesforce and increased subcontractors between the staff this work will help to support our workforce and gave me us with our mission as well our last goal is viral stewardship the stewardship is one of the core values that addresses management and adapting to climate change and go pro-active in national resources for the operations through ssip we're investing in new temp for preservation and providing green infrastructure and while sanborn map is not specifically called out in the

- will provide customers to be one hundred - all 3 enterprises will continue to address climatic change and last but not least as we move forward we'll be readvancing our sustainability at our last preservation presentation there were questions about the agencies priority and the matrix that is in all the packet on the table connects our top priorities across the combridz that enables the priorities that are strategic plans and parenthesisal plans that support our higher level goals we want to commend give a quick several examples to talk about the enterprises priorities and the overall strategic plan and thank commissioners that asked for the exercise we asked for all the

enterprises and bureaus to make those connections with the work in the bureau connecting the agencies so the first example is around cleanpowersf the prelims of cleanpowersf is one of the agencies top priorities and a business plan for the implementation you've seen and approved cca as we build relationships with supplies and provided venues with on the clean power and make the stewardship goal for the 100 percent green house gas emissions free san francisco with the watermelon and infrastructure with the sewer improvement project is guided by levels of service goals and we will be working towards the reliable service and - through ssip we'll be supporting our stakeholder with interested goals with the outreach to the

community as well our viral stewardship to have more improvements in research recovery as well as the green infrastructure programs underway and fenlt in the wastewater in the water system improvement program we'll also allow us to have a level of reliability and this is with our service goals around the service reliability and water supply clearly drought management is a priority for our agency and will continue to be in the coming years our water enterprise findings is around the maintenance of our water supply and alternative water sources and commercialism that support our stewardship goal as part of financial sustainability goal we'll be analyzing this to

influenced our plan last but not least we must support of efforts a number of objectives in financial sustainability with the excellence and sfrrld and community interest addresses investing in the analysis and demonstrating our effectiveness in public support and capacity rates to sustain sour system again, the nature has a bunch of priorities and really a request for the enterprises and bureaus to antiapartheid top priorities and make the connection and part of this conversation is it in strategic process but the higher levels of road maps in the operating plan not specifically identified and called out through cleanpowersf ssip, etc. or the rates campaign. >> so as we look at the next steps we're working with the communication team on developing

strategies for sharing this internally and extraordinarily and thinking how - we presented the draft plan at the advisory committee and this summer focused on building the structures to implement the plan and outreaching to and originating new staff members responsible for that the action items to support the objective and supporting consulting for the priorities identify two performance indicators and the work plan and put in place to monitor the share quarterly update with the executive team with that, i'll stop and take questions that you may have. >> commissioner. >> i hate to do this in my two

hours identify taken office but this issue i'm going to raise you mentioned at the end of july i'm proud to sit here and say if not for you're good work and general manager leadership we wouldn't be where we're at in rigorous and readable and successful apprenticeship program but talk about is real workforce program and the needs for the utility the 4 that percent or whatever had are retiring. >> huge conversation and hard for me to gaufrmd i'm concerned about who is engaging this conversation and experts and community input we're getting if we're going to get this is thirty thousand feet it is great product but something that is a sign off by the end of july i'd like to have stakeholder and

people like somebody now running i think that dj i want to meet with folks that understand the language and how important it is you know, i i get it the track retain bias but the development piece that burn all of us those careers especially in the public sector those careers last for decades and when you just kind of convert that into a monetary value we're talking about an incredible amount of money sounds like i'm being an aggressive advocate with respect to our part actually our part is coming up done really well, you have to recognize the design the mayor's prelims of the fix it program last week, i think he

rent-controlled housing that out something we should pay attention and that's the need the city has to the citizens that were today to make sure we're working with one another and i don't see that cross the line not relationships with public works and rec and park rec and park have this beat system like their frigging bible it ties their hands i'll give them this credit when it comes to apprenticeship you look at the strategic plan they at least have a commitment to closer that and planning to engage a long heavy road harlan you know about the contracts one line item is about making sure there that's our bad do union saying you know don't use this and do this and

that but i guess that's the problem but there's two pieces julia i want to participate fully engage in this is substantive number one and physique we have a quorum and obviously number 3 and processes that go into that because if you bring in 200 folks under the guise of some programming the question how many are we will id and who will make that determination right now we either dedicate and not ongoing the mechanisms or assigns those folks to come back and i feel for them sometimes some of them are really good but signed up for a career in a particular trade whether electrical or plumbing or labor and all of a

sudden their assigned this workforce piece this social piece you will; right? and then you either embrace that and execute or don't and too many times it is not embraced by current staff so there are mechanisms that we can consider in a collective bargaining agreement i know that tommy has good relationships with the stationary engineers but mechanisms where those folks what volunteer and be identified as a smell to mentor those population of individuals and that's from the public segment side before we get into the tip off i want to let you you know uniform available and really, really, really for or important for me the great work we're the leaders; right? rec and park with the apt and mta they have

to follow suit in the presidential election one 0 hand is a burden and on the other hand, for all of us to succeed and do right by the workforce. >> thank you. >> a couple of things i would want to add in the workforce it is definitely complicated i mean, you have city forces, contractor, you have workforce and you know trying to work with the trade unions and just the professional staff which you know for us we're also very concerned about so to try to put this together and look at it opportunity for a chain analysis you look at everything we touch in the jobs so we're taking a deeper dive so as we do that labor information and a lot of opportunities to make a difference as we look at

workforce because we're spending - we'll spend $7 billion we'll spend a lot on jobs and opportunities. >> thanks harlan. >> like i said your leadership and ellis and tommy too it is great work up here the questions are we're going to close ourselves to a greater burden and you know my ask another that at this point in time to be fully involved and engaged there are folks we know that are doing this work that i think should be involved ♪ conversation if we attempted to have like i said hard to put words in a box those words have pages and pages of matt haney; right? so i'd like to meet with young developers and ralph do have and those folks and we're targeting a particular community and other folks because it is

not rights to include the other populations in san francisco and how do we do that so thanks harlan >> we'll definitely engage i appreciate your feedback everything behind the word on all the page it is so complicated and a shout out to the general managers and head of h.r. andlipid and others and i did that. >> i know you did that i see tommy in the back and kathy and steve richie i'm forgetting people barbara hale i said. >> barbara hale. >> i would all the cloufz have engaged around this issue and have been talking about this opportunity stand point and talking with the utilities companies as an opportunity to

really on the construction side and the permanent job site. >> and my understanding is this is i mean this is thirty thousand feet; right? i'll imagine there needs to be a work plan and a set of tests my hope the champions have been identified and the agency wide opportunities and programs the devil is in the details; right? so working groups will convene around every single goal and executive team members and folks that will be part of this you're completely right the next step is a originating people on the committee because people actively worked on this and go with that group around the indicators and coming up with a work plan that had been for each of them this is what you can

expect and who we partner that. >> through the chair. >> my goal to make sure whatever we without the possibility of parole with we tell the other departments this is right; right? why as government would we have the same conversations ero and over and over again about the consistent workforce in the very exact clarification performing the exact same task so it is like on one hand you know this is what we do this is our burden but a lot of things to get it right you change lives >> okay other comments is there a motion to approve the strategic plan. >> so moved madam chair. >> any public comment on this item? >> all in favor, say i. >> i.

>> opposed? that motion carries thank you ma'am, eirs next item, please. >> item 12 approval the selection of award contract number - and authorize a cpmc amount up to $244 million plus i'd like to note that the contract amount was changing from from what was overflow room in your packet there was a contribution of the contract amount and the correct amount is what you have new copies provided for the public at 200 and $44 million plus. >> great. >> good afternoon, commissioners the purpose of a new headwork facility to build a headwork facility at the southeast plant for grit removal and sure the

operational reliability and seismic reliability on july 14, 2015, the commission authorized the general manager to be issue a request for qualifications and subsequent for the cpmc methodologies the r f q was advertised in 2015 and requalification packages were received on october 13th from pc l construction, simon with the construction and sun with wavls sfpuc prequalified them and permitted them to synonym proposals we alleviated the proposals on miracle 25 of this year and conducted oral interviews this year based on the results of the cost

proposals and community proposals and interviews the sfpuc staff recommend watching and joint venture loose the contract is for 200 and $44 million plus we are asking the commission to authorize $3 million plus for preconstruction services we will return to the commission upon completion of the environmental review for the authorization to approve the construction. >> thank you. >> is there a motion to approve. >> so moved. >> second. >> any comments on this item public comment. >> corin. >> i have made comments about

the this form of contract that is something relatively new to the city and ultimately total puc identify spent a lot of time talk to puc staff and others about the challenges of doing this kind of contract and i'm convinced of the merits of doing this contract, however, it has it presents particular issues as well i grew up in the era of design bid build contracting and that feels good because you have a public process where ever we can stage of the crack an analysis by the staff for action impacts and of him implications that gives us a very public process and give us the feeling of oversight and control i say feeling that oversight and

control is real so the benefit, however, it is public you get a see a lot of the bidding process and one of the aspects of this kind contracts less we didn't know who the contractors are and i think that makes the process and the integrity of the process subject to both reporting and auditing this is something the staff had conversations with the controller's office as well but i can't emphasis the importance of making sure this precedes in a way that that is every bit as transplant as other forms of contract and that if parties or rate payers or

contractors feel the process is making that known and if there are any concerns that we have about some of the product of contracting process in terms of fairness or financial efficiency that we have a chance to address those so the staff develops is reporting processes i will be looking at those closely to make sure that process is met there was a memo back in march that explained why this contracting was appropriate this particular bit of work i think that was a convincing memo i think that should be needs to be part of public record i don't remember a couple of the concerns but it should be and that ever point we're making decisions that effect the public

value of contract and the public interest in the contract those decisions are made clear and justified as well so between auditing and reporting i think we have a high standard to meet we have a great history in our audit program with the capital plan it is open and executive we have a good record and that kind of contract presents challenged so i have no problem with that but want to take the opportunity to say that about transparency. >> we hear our message and agree every bid package will be pubically bid and make sure we have at least 3 bids and also be cpmc will work with us to establish the goals for those. >> good. >> the other thing because you

know dpw in the dpw but public works mta is doing a lot so we are working with the other departments to kind of see those so we'd like to go probably bring those as other projects are you know using the same delivery method. >> i was pleased to see that the controllers all of questions they want to look at are identified all the agencies as far as i'm concerned, so this is something i think we have our eyes open. >> and then the last thing i want to point out for your information my maybe eileen, speak to is one of tt admin cod

more complex and you know cpmc. >> let's not talk about that now (laughter). >> you know we're you know pushing it out there and using more delivery methods and traditionally methods. >> thank you. >> other comments on this item? >> public comment? >> yeah. my name is silvia johnson. on this issue i will put emergency response and disadvantage control and management assisted with the areas what major procedures do in for you know mainly
