thanks to the communication team for using the power to you know00 oop spread the word. du call the next item >> yes. >> item 4b results of the bond and loan financing for wastewater. and nick will present. >> >> good afternoon. commissioners and president ajami. it is the pleasure to be back this afternoon to provide you with a brief update and report become on 2 items you approved this spring. and fortunately now with standing the news and concern about interest rates, we have good news for you.

to share. you will recall00 march 28 approved bond for new moncompetence resentencing for wastewater enterprise. april 5, the puc issued 974 million dollars of bonds. successfully in the market place and recall that will included 750 million dollars of new revenue bonds together with the refinancing. we previously gotten confirmation of our double aratings. and based on that we were able to enter the marketplace. you will recall we were talking how volatile the market was. how unusual it was with the fed raising interest rate and inverted yield curb. the good nows is as you see in

the chart, flout period while subscent to your approval interest rates went down. we took step its try to encourage a successful sale. one item we notified the mark place we would issue bond in advanced. and hoped the marker on our dates. and upon the state california chose that same week. we had shuffling become and forth of dates. the will net affect was the rest of the market cleared out of our way and the state priced first they had a successful sale and we rhode that to successful stael sale as well. to give you a sense on the refunding, we had have a policy. 3% net present value savings.

in other words, 3% saving in today's dollars. and for the 2013 bonds it was 8. 4% and for the 2018c. 8.8%. we were able to deliver significant savings based on the successful sale. you will recall in your presentation we had a good faith mate produced by our municipal advisors required by state law. and that -- mated the a & b bonds a 3.35% rate and c bonds 3.77% rate. and you can see here on the graph the all in rate was 3.08%. so. much lower than participating a very successful outcome. one of the inthg asspekts of if

anies 2 series of bonds were labeled green. and they are cbi certified bonds and will 2 things we did with this is we provided a priority in the marketplace. for esg investors the investor would have to certify that they -- were esg and provided perspectives. this gave them a priority. that priority is after individuals. residents of the communities who put in their orders. but you see on00 autograph below, the order flow for the green bonds was excess of the order for the same bonds in the same years. in the upon end, we were able to just all the rates down. aural the bonds had the same rate grown or not and used that leverage to lower our over all cost of funds. as with all negotiated sales we

had to our 2 municipal advisors mont ghoul and associates and baxter and mc carly. we had an independent prizing advisor to monitor the pricing and opine on the pricing and as you see they conclued the bonds were o'farrell price in the light of the market conscience. that was our successful ref now bond sale. we had come to you together with will alexander our loan grant director in april 11th to approve with the master agreement. we wanted report back that, that was approved and then closed on april 26. now, what is different about that financing is we have not borrowed the funds we closed the

loan. closing that loan we locked in interest rate and that's had we want to report bab on is that rate was a 3. 65% rate. that compared to the good faith mate that had been provided at time of approval. which was 4.046%. gaevenl lower rate. we got lucky. we took advantage of know lowering rates and the calm occurred after the bank turmoil occurring earlier in spring. i want to conclude by showing you where we end up with our wastewater enterprise. look at the light grownom that chart that is the new am loan. what we have done is intentionally push third degree debt service out and taking advantage as we have with the prior loan. of taking the longest borrowing

and making that the lowest rate. so this is a 3.65%. by doing that we were able to shorten our revenue bonds in the public market and issue them lower rates so the dark blue the ref now bonds and that was a 3.08 rate. but what is most interesting about the again we talked about is this ability the optionality where we can close the comploen borrow when it makes sense. and so earlier this spring. we took advantage of the tlooen is in dark green. which is a 1. 45% rate. so we were able to issue -- able to borrow long dated bonds with 1.45% that is huwe merge them together. i want to thank my finance team

and partners. happy to answer questions >> thank you, comments or questions. >> i appreciate all the effort that have been put to make sure we get the best pricing i'm always worried paying back all the debt and how we will manage the and balance with revenue. it is good news if we can louis the cost. thank you and thank you for the details on the green bonds. >> thank you, commissioner. >> thank you. >> can we have public comment. please. members had wish to make 2 minutes of remote comment on 4b press star 3.

anyone present to provide comment on 5j? do we have callers with hands raised? >> there is one caller in the queue >> thank you this is item 5j. again, chronologicalally speaking go to the year 2002 when we asked millions of dollars. billions. was like 2.6 billion, upon to upgrade our infrastructure. we focussed on clean drinking

water. second round more were satisfied. upper since talking about replacing the pipes. have nohad one meeting for the general public where we want to know what percentage of the pipes have been replaced? again. i repeat we have not had one single meeting. the last time we had -- some mention was guarantee [inaudible]. so here we are. adding another 5 million dollars. while we have not addressed what were we are supposed to address.

the commissioners -- do y'all take in account what the contractors are doing? and all the time the more replaced millions of gallons are roaching in the grounds. thank you very much. >> thank you. there are no callers in the queue. >> thank you public money 5j is closed. >> upon one quick question since mr. robinson we have had a few of these covid-19 as a cause of increase and price and cost of the project, how does this distribute among the -- us paying more than you know the contractors eating the costs. the and you know the supply

chain process. who takes what in the press. do we isn't or are we only who end up with the birth price tag? >> good question. and i think the and contract and projects and services we have and work on is varied. and from when i understand in the bay area different utility and organizations treated those impactless to the process during covid times whether supply chain and cost increases or the vulnerability or -- the flexibility of the marketplace to forecast is difficult and hard. the majority of projects are designed to good somewhere alternative deliver. construction manage export yes or no contractor. we have taken prop in different ways on the whole our contracts were in place prior and hold the contractor acountsable for cost

increases to inspect weather supply chain demands are treated different low. they allowed you to take a different approach during time and accept it was bids or the contractor as the construction management contractor to work with those packages as they verify what is happening. we are i will turn and look to the [inaudible] to see if we are taking tactic and different ways? >> i need to understand you are coming up. the cmgc ones. we would be responsible for any the cost changes just because we are hiring the yes or no contractor. sort of like an implementer. right. but on the public, private partnership the other deliver methods like you know build -- design build or that. the contractor would take on the

role of making sure the process is fully delivered on cost and budget on time. >> or did i misunderstand? >> how differents low are we

pnldzed those? commissioners, short answer it depends. we have a lot of availables in contracting the timing the reasons the process is you say more affected is because our bids are conditionualy coming out on a project. it is more effective by market conditions and the contractor accepts this risk. and variability.

the vote 5j. a motion and second for condition cent item 5j as amended >> moved >> second. >> thank you. can we have a roll call. >> on iteming 5j amended. president ajami. >> aye yoochl commissioner paulon. >> aye >> commissioner stacy. >> aye. >> thank you. thank you. item 6. award grant cs1249g exposure and

skilled and trined do real life jobs. want to do it in the public sector in san francisco despite the other areas you guys participate in send people out to. this is the best part of training and making sure people have good jobs on the grounds and thanks it was good to have not heard from some of the educational programs here.

i wondered over of the past 5 or 6 years. have you seen an increase in -- either job applicants or commissioner paulson mentioned students who are at oshg conel interested in the trids as a result or do you not electronic those numbers. >> i will answer and answer as limp it is difficult to track student numbers because of privacy reasons. we have seen certainly -- like increase in just the awareness and the conversation around the puc within the classroom. you visit the students and you take in the conversation they are having about the puc and the water, power and sewer systems it is rable. this program begins with

awareness. before students make decisions, they first must be aware of those. that is where the program operates is creating awareness of these career and positions we have in the past hosted interns from jon at the puc. anything you like to add. with knowledge of when we do already >> i'm sorry i add we have had john students go in training programs. some of the new are ones in development. and so. great. >> such an important out roach and educational tool. and i'm surety students take away a lot from the program.

thank you. whyment to say i always talk -- i thought from the same questions you asked at the beginning do you know where your water is coming from which, lot of people don't know. basic knowledge of where your water come from and where it goes when it takes to bring it. can be a very valuable set of information and knowledge we can have. and that those awareness leads to better behavior everbehavioral changes that we want around facing resource or you know being mindful how you use it or where. and i think you were quite on point when you mentioned trinning the future rate payers we want to make sure people know when they are paying for and you know, why they have to pay for the service they receive.

so you know wonderful to have them in our to work for puc if we don't get the students as part of a future employees just having that knowledge base is important. you are hoping would credit a point of conversation this they can spread the worried to others. their own families if they have families in the future. thshg. i appreciate it. >> okay with this can we have public comment. >> members of public who wish to make remote comment item 6 press

>> thank you. next item read the next item. >> next is item 7, modify contract to increase contract 7 million dollars for a new contract 17 million dollars and increase the contract duration 4 years for a new duration of 9 years and one month. >> >> good afternoon commissioners i'm derrick adams the project manager for storm water improve. project. can i have the slides? i'm here seeking approval of modification number 5 the contract pro101. first a little background on the folsom project. located in the mission district of san francisco.

with the historic mission creek. folsom is a flooding project within sfid increase storm water capacity for the level storm. service storm events. in november of 2021 the state passed abuyment order. one of which folsom and requires the project to be complete by june 302027. this shows a detailed vouft impack area. project consists of sewer pipe sewer boxes and a wet weather tunnel. and because of the large skaflt project. and the different types of work elected to break did down in 4 contracts.

the grown line is a wet weather tunnel and alameda street. yellow is a large sewer box. currently the planning phase is complete environmental phase complete and the design fais phase in progress we are approaching upon different mile stones for each contract. it is come plea and headed construction this summer and 719 b the tunnel 95% design. the subject of today's item is modification to contract proprofessional service contract primarily for tunnel design related to the b contract. this had 4 prior modifications 18 months and 5.7 million.

from 10% to 100% design with technical support for the project in the sewer box. modification 2, previously increased the budget by 4 million. this was primary low to address a conflict with the alameda tunnel and foundation structure for the u.s. 101 highway over pass during detailed design. scope of modification 2 included complex modeling required by tality tran. additional tunnel work. technical support and exploring alternatives. how it crosses the over pass. the angle.

alternative analysis done with consultant and determined the alignment was the most available and modifying the cal trans foundations to make room for the tunnel the best solution to the conflict. beneath i80 over pass you see in the centers of the screen. this is because the cal tran parking lot to the north is only suitable tunnel staging site. a large open area. so, after make the determinations we submitted reports receive comments and have been meeting with cal trans staff and managers. able to coloneling firm environments for approval the project within cal trans jurisdiction and based on the requirements modification number

50 contract prepared to allow for technical design support through the end of construction. >> this modification for budget and time will primarily provide for engineering support during construction. with additional modeling required by cal dprans on going support of the ww719 c contract for additional 7. 5 million and 48 months. you see the bulk of the budget is for engineering support douching construction paymented for the project come not allocated and budget for new complex modeling of the relocate the launch chaff under i80 not anticipated. and there is additional budget for further complex modeling the foundation due to increased requirements. during design.

will summarizeings all of the modifications to the contract including the modification number 5. next steps are to submit a strategy report to cal trans with final results. and submit a psrpr to cal trance for approval by the director and prepare plans and specks to phenotype design and move to construction. any questions? >> thank you. commissioner paulson. >> thank you for that report. this continuous i'm always flabbergasted when i see stories of planning that was put together handled years ago in which people basically ik norred the yours they were taking over.

and i guess this is the history of america and it has been interesting to mow in the years i lived here in my life in san francisco that area which used to be a river that people croak that people hung out on. you know and, is still worked on and good reason that this was following jon is talking about and they are a couple blocks away from this area. i look gwen they might be in that area. to see, this being taken care of and engineering done the most minor but major with impact in the area. project this is we have to deal with and if there is anything on the street what the hell is happening with the spanned bagos

17th street. on going. i happen to be more privy as a commissioner knowing what is going on. to see this stuff to basically reconfigure san francisco in a toll low different way than a handled years ago is amazing and the fact that it got so much extra attention the last holiday season on a personal level my favorite and san francisco's favorites got wiped out that weekend. which started a go fund me piece. it just a madz to see this happening and. -- i will end this saying, thanks for even though this is another on going sdpien piece thanks for the report upon about on going report staff has to take care of this project which we have inherited the last

period of time. and so i felt like getting that out. thank you for make sure we are getting to a conclusion to what is irritation in our infrastructure. i have a few questions. can you e lab rit on the modification toft foundation? kwhald that entail? essentially -- plucking the existing piles out of the ground. there are 4 impacted pile catharsis aline with our tunnel. remove them and off set away from our tunnel design. >> a bit more. yea. back away from the tunnel runs down the street we are purke them out.

we are add being 2 piles. 2 piles. to replace the one on either side. pending with cal tran that is the current proposal we think they like. >> thank you >> they would run their own numbers to make sure everything is done. i want to make sure well is all we don't later something happens tell come and say your design was well done they will have their design team? >> they will. they are reviewing and approving it. my understanding from the attorney system that the design immunity witness we given it and they approved it. we are acting as consultants. they sign up and watch attach in construction and take t. and own it.

this project came to us early on. when i yoined the commission and always left a mark for me that we need to figure out a better way of knowing where everything is. the sefktz hi is in the that old. right? so they those maps are [inaudible] and i have bruthis up a few time and we need have a better way of digitizing our assets. owned by us or owned by other organizations or agencies but within our city limits. we don't want this to happen over and over again. if we had the map it is available to us the designs and everything this could have been

a very quick identification. this is a problem. i'm leave thanksgiving with you we had this conversation special know this it is a braudz are conversation beyond us as puc.

but we can be sort of initial how we do this and others can join in. i know there are efforts around data. but maps are another part of this. i know we have a few other parts we have not started. let's hope we don't finding other finds everkinds of road blacks. so, with that i'm happy thom move this forward i want us to -- have the lesson learn exclude not in repeating them. >> thank you. public comment on this item. if you wish to make comment on item 7 press star 3 to speak.

>> good afternoon. i'm here seek approval of the first modification of this program construction management service condition tract and thank you. this is for an next of 12 million dollars for a new total amount 47 million dollars. with no change to the duration. and i will acknowledge a mall typo on the cover page the screen that was put in the report but not today it is corrected now. other rep mindser are a thousand miles of xiep 3 treatment plants in san francisco the sewer system improve am program is one of several improve am program practice implemented upgrade the aging product to be sure it is comp pliant and safe. i'm show thanksgiving because we have so much construction work

and the pro04 program contract is focus ordsoutheast treatment plant expect provides services around the city. our contract awarded in 2018 for period of time 10 years through 2028. and provides program construction manage. services for phase one construction project. the southeast plant. program integrated with staff exclusive provides over site and intrigz to ensure standardization and consistency across the construction management teams. contract includes the scope of service. broader construction manage examine gets control management. construction contract. risk management. safety. compliance, public out reach. communication and am supply quality surveillance. while all service contract were

am upon in the contract scope of service the level effort was intentionally increases over time through task orders as issued and authorized annually. next level effort rird for plant electrical inspection. and a question by the types of challenges in staffing and infrastructure i say electrical. it is a challenge in the market place. .

as well. a third reason the cop transgender used to support the center with out roach work and the centers a community based resource mentor and train local businesses effective business partnerships contract bid and financial forecast being and other aspects necessary to pursue contracts. the pandemic it has been challenging. impact third degree leading to equalization of the issues we need more effort to keep our program working. worked to manage and mitigate incidents during construction. since inspection in 2018. when you see it a total project

hours is over 2-1/2 million hours. and there were 17 incidents. it is half of the national average on this number of hours. we are below average in headed in the right direction. result in the 6 workday and we are proud to say no citations. a zero tolerance. thanks to the construction staff, trades and laborors doing

the work this helped coordinate and keep people safe. we will reach capacity earlier than the date construction and contract duration the work is important to continue consistency who i we made our goals for construction management plan and safety approach and construction management procedures. the additional condition tract capacity is needed to continue per management service until we determine a solution to meet the longer need. the effort more then and there expected we want to think about a good solution and being be to use more inhouse resources and doing better or could be reimagine magging the contract doing manage different of the action is to increase the contract 12 million dollars with a new amount of 47 no change to duration.

thank you. >> thank you. parseons provides construction support. during -- construction of various projects. there are submit commission has approved gone through environmental review. help on the projects but this amendment does not affect the projects approved. it is parseons role will continue of the there is an another the commission may or may not approve if we approve following environmental review. parseons will provide conduction the same construction management service for those projects. it is almost in their contract

they don't work on a project until this commission approves there are a number of projects at and near the plant but in other pers of the city. after the commission approves. is this right? correct. you said the end was perfect this is a construction management service contract has support i learning contract with long duration and high level support. and they did not get involved at the project level and designer thinking how it would be shaped or the environment al process it get it through approvals. they get involved in construction and inspections. you are correct this any

project which they help over see and integrated in approaches will go through a level process and come for approval and initiation of work and the same for future projects in the added to the program. >> thank you. >> so i have a question. i was fully clear what would the will extra 12 million dollars go to? i read the document it was not clear and now it was not clear to me. can you elaborate >> short answer more of the same. and the sense typeset is a broad contract we are providing levels of service some examples what the scope is not like we are back filling the project with 12 million dollars to support projects or parts of that. the work continued.

what i tried to explain if we want to extend it from a dollar amount 12 million that gives time to reimagine how to dot work. if we need to do it differently that gives space. and potential low have a new opportunity. not like the 12 million is earmarked for the contract to at any time service provided. we will use this time to think about 12 million used to make it last. can you connect time more. internal low huddling trying to figure out how to do this ourselves. the 12 million nothing to do with this we are still -- you know provide that resources to the parsons to do the work.

and the same time dweel our own rethinking? >> the original contract value award in 2018. that is 5 years worth of work. on average 7, 8 million or plus have been extendod t. to ask for 12 give says us space to see the year and another year could be the same amount of time to think about releasing. and if we if this is upon the contract? >> professional service contracting for construction management not construction and -- professional service.

they provide support to the bureau and hrdz from earlier and his team of construction management around the treatment plan. they over see in the sense the fall urn the construction team and this team is here to support them. why if we decide to bring this in house what would that intake. in peek vol unanimouso special things we don't have in house. as we hire up more and think different low how we hire and recruit and qualifications require exclude may be construction inspector and management staff and do quality evans likeip mentioned. and there are skill sets we can do more now this we know how the program is run and programs are

up and live. >> and i just over all i think when i think about different activities this happens within puc, construction do have a lot of construction going on. some of those skills are temporary needed somewhere long-term. i assume going to the because you know we don't need to bring everything. you are now going to build projectless in the scope. like over and over again. but we need different skill sets. i assume that is part of it. i think about 2 reasons. we rely on them as an owner. we don't have the staff or expertise in house. neither we want to staff up for but there is a base liven work

on the size of our growing capitol plan we need to make sure we are resourced to be delivered. >> okay. commissioner stays. imented follow up on your line of questioning. president ajami. we don't have to spend the whole 12 million if there is work that come in house before this contract is up. correct. >> would not spend this money. there is a lives 9 or 10 roles that parseons flas think may be unique to the size and complexity of the project and also there are issues this come up on any construction project. so -- i think that is awe good thought process and know we don't center to spend the entire 12 million if we bring this in house before the contract is

fulfilled. >> yes. testimony is a contract mast ever services we use task orders to initiate work and manage and renew the longer ordeverorders over time of other cop tractless we use the process as we think about the next contlakt or whether we do it in house. we see projection of work and

intentiousity of the work and r.ed up and you in we don't want to be in a situation there is a gap in services with the deem construction work. working with parseons on the contract team and looking ahead now to see how we sustain effort about what is next. a full partnership the upon contract upon supports city staff as our construction management service at the plant. thank you can we have public comment. there is one caller. >> i opened your line you have 2
