>> good afternoon, commissioners manufacturing aisle water supply program. can i have the slides. thank you. i'm here to talk about the alternative water supply plan. this is a plan that was -- you directed me and our team by resolution in 2020 to produce an alternative water supply plan to talk about alternative water supply projects and planning for the fufrment you see on this slide, our regional water system delivers water to the customers our existing system. 85% of total water supply on average from the tuolumne water head and 50% if local watersheds. 2 reasons for doing this plan. first is potential future shortage in our existing supply on the tuolumne river.

we face shortages due to regulatory actions by the stay including the bay delta plan, an amendment adopted in 2018. by the state but not implemented yet. there is uncertainties to climate change that is manage we have to be aware of 40 uncertainties. second, primary driver for the alternative water supply plan is the puc commission faces a decision by december 28ed on whether to make san hose and he santa clara permanent customers they are interruptible customers of the puc and are requesting permanent status by 2028. how we decide how to plan for future shortages we use this graphic represents a simple conciliation of how we of course about our future shortage.

look at water valth and that is on the supply side how much water available to address future demands includes water that flows. looking at dry year and future draughts. how much water flows through existing system and how much water demand can be addressed through ration. we compare that to our obligation and projected future demands from customers. obligations we have legal and contractual obligations to wholesale custody sxhers our retail customer and a potential obligation to the cities of san hose and he santa clara. looking at projected demand in 2045 the planning horizon this plan looks at. the difference with the supply and it is demands is the gap this alternative water supply is

try to address. the main driver was the 2018 amendment to the bay delta plan. that was adopted by the state. this is something that puc continues to be in negotiations with the state o. on the proposed voluntary agreement. we don't know where that will lands yet when we used in our planning is the assumptionings based on what was adopt in the 2018. we have uncertainties around future regulations and climate change. on the obligation front i mentioned the legal ocgations we have to our wholesale customers perpetual in the form of supply assurance. retail area obligations to deliver water and the future dligz making san jose and santa

clara. and for those purposes we based future obligationos historic purchases from the puc of 9 million gallons per day. on the demands look at the total projections of all customers in 2045 and the extent to which our customers rely on the puc to serve those demands. >> when we put numbers to obligations issue demand and water supply availability this is what it looks like. watery availability in a future dry year would be 152 million gallons per day based on the modeling we have done. under future dry year conditions with our design drought modeling. this does assume the bay delta plan amendment as adopted in the

scenario of 152 million gallons. the left you see 2 obligations the exist to wholesale and retail, 265 million gallons per day and 9 for san hose and he santa clara. by including them tell give you the ability to make that determination in the future that gap is 122 gallons per day and the max of what we may be obligated to provide. the short fall. the hor fall with supply and demand. on the demand side, the supply available remains the same the demands are based on projected demands from all customers for retail customers based on the urban water management plan and wholesale based on the most recent annual survey that are done boy boska and represented annual tow the puc that water

supply gap is 92 million gallons per dame you see our approach with the alternative water supply mrafr to mrafr f orbut not the projects that gap building for demands. ? is a lives regional projects that the alternative water supply program identified and has been wonging on the last 3 years, you see this left is represent on the map. the kershaw plus is the area where the facilities are located not where necessarily distribution would happen but geographic location of the facilities. the there are 6 projects on the list that we are working on now. the first is dale city recycled expansion project that is

providing recycled water to irrigation customer and replace being grounds water can be left in the grounds for dry year water supply. and the next 3 projects on the list are pureified projectings or recycled projects that are the deliver water to drinking water standards and those again are spread out throughout our service area. one in the avenue bay peninsula and south bay. the distribution is important because it helps provide resilience throughout our system. >> we have 2 reservoir expansion

projects number 5 and 6. the reservoir project is a partnership in the east bay with contra costa district. another and that project provides carry over storage allowing us to put wet water in wet years so we can use it in dry years. same with the last one the cal vera reservoir expansion project that is the only one on the list not a partnership with other utilities. it it is entirely puc and looks at the expansion of the reservoir. i would like to point out project 40 pureified water with san hose and he santa clara is i project intended address the question of making san hose and he santa clara permanent and feasible in the future. >> with all of the supplies, this circle here the pie represents the total max gap that we have of 122. that i mentioned the max gap under obligations. so this represents that entire maximum obligation. the 9 o'clock mark you see line

for 92 million gallons per day to build to demands. you seat projects represent the colored segments at the top of this graphic. and those show you how much of the. gap each the projects can fill. this is a maximum at the current time. the projects are all in planning. society numbers change and it is a range from 22-48 million gallons per day of the 92 million gallon per day gap to meet demands. we have a short fall. the projects get us helpful way to the availability to meet demands. largest representatived here is the cal vera expansion. >> there are recommendations included in the plan. and they include managing the water supply gap and filling the water supply gap that's how we are thinking. include the implementation of 2

projects. the expansion project and daly city recycled project in the next year. we are trying to reach a mile stone that's when we intends the next year 4.6 supply. we are also recommending the additional staff and key areas including afford at. and pureified water and intgrigz with current operations. potential budget new funding of 209 million. >> these other key take aways from the project. and -- i will point out affordability is a key issue we want to focus. this program does not fit gap but it makes progress and getting us there. and we have more work and a lot more actions to take to help us get there. this is where we are today we

will have a plan available to you later this week and will provide a draft plan publicly this week and we expect to get comments and come become in the fauchl thank you. >> thank you. any comments or questions. commissioner stacy. >> thank you. i have a couple of questions. when you look at these 6 projects are these the projects that you amount could be impelemented by 2045? that seems to be the framework. all of the projects could being online by 20 if i have. they are in planning stages. yes, that is our plan. all po potential low implemented by 2045 we are not recommending all at this time.

>> and i don't have a history with your planning process but i assume as you go through look at possible projects and you narrowed them down after doing some feasibility studies and technical analysis to reach some sense that the 6 are realistic? >> yes we looked at others. the map with the distribution, of the projects, we looked all over that area to look at where there might be water utility, wastewater to partner with for supply. dry year ploy is the most challenging to find. there are not really a lot of projects out there. we know that if we expand the area. we're not done look so -- identifying and evaluating these

other most amming promising at this time >> thank you. there must be a parallel process to look at that 44, for mgd that is yet unnamed projects? could you talk about how you are look at that additional need? >> yea. >> we participated in regional partnerships with other utilities to identify other projects. we do that. of course there is the voluntary agreement project under way. we don't know where we'll end up on that gam hopeful locality gap be smaller but we have to continue to plan for all possibilities. >> and i'm sorry i wanted go back to my timing question a bit. daly city and [inaudible] are

the most advanced in the planning process. dale city prepared a negative declaration. are those first online as far as you can tell at this point? >> both could be online 2030. reservoir expansion is an 8 agency project. a large multiparty project that is driven by funding. there is amounts of grant funding available that is driving alt of the time 39 could go in construction as early as 2025. dale city recycled project working on agreements with partners and potential customers if successful woe recommend the next year that could move forward the environmental review has been completed. it is a matter of completing design and then construction.

>> for this for other projects you are examining i'm thinking about the 44 gap. are there i think there is one potential recycling project we are looking at in san francisco, are there other recycling opportunity? i'm interested in recycling. i know there is a demanded reduction approach but there is also this drinking water and purified water prop to recycling. that is where the mack opportunity lies for large volume drinking water supplies for the future. we are looking at partnering with waste water. you mentioned san francisco, yes this tha is something we are look at as well. we have our wastewater utility working w. to identify how much is possible in san francisco.

but of also throughout looking for new opportunity and with the opportunity we have, how much more can we get out of those projects? so that is something that is active and you see 3 out of sick projects are water recycling for drinking. i think of recycling a very reliable source and it is a win both for our water supply systems as well as our wastewater system and the bay and that seems like a good avenue to explore. it seems like it has the most potential for providing a good aim of supply. >> i think in addition to being -- doing this in san francisco, we want to encourage incentivize other agencies especially our customers to do more throughout the service area especially with recycling.

there will is i big opportunity. one recommendations in the you will see in the plan is to work with our wholesale customers to develop an incentive frak work that can encourage more throughout the service area. could you talk about those other opportunity and i assume you already looked at them and continuing to do so? >> absolutely the quarry is

something we are going to do a feasibility study on to look at the potential for storage there. that is absolutely one and then we have talked to valley water about potential partnerships in their residence virus. again, there are other opportunities even beyond -- traditional reservoir expansion we are looking at. and groundwater banking is another area i think thinking of it under ground storage there are opportunity there. >> thank you very much. >> commissioner paulson. >> thank you for your report. and looking forward to this fall to seeing how it gets butt offend ump this is all the stuff are moving official low public low now. i -- commissioner stacy asked most of the questions i was going to ask about the gam on the gap chart says, the one i

see includes the possible how you call at this time affects of religion the 11% there is 32.9 million gallons per day. you mentioned partnerships with other water districts. talked about the stand alone one for us. and then also if i remember i think in the last report you said you have or -- may be we approved the budget for 3 new staff people to work with you on that? are there other can you give me some of the other things you are doing when you roll up your she was not primetime stuff you show us -- not for -- for the primetime stuff now. a company other ideas? >> yea. what is your approach? >> our approach it is a big gap. one of the things we do a lot of is talking about it publicly. and participating with other

partners. i think as we looky ahead, it will be harder to do the projects alone. for cost and technical and available reasons. really, being a good partner and exploring new opportunity is something that i know i spend my time doing and that is a lot of where a lot of the new ideas start. i would say that is an area that we continue to push hard on and see what is cells out there. no idea is bad until we look into it. >> okay i have thank you for your propertiation i have a few questions for you. you mentioned let's go in a row. so. i think what you were mentioning with the partnership this is is

the collaborative governors we work together that is the idea which is great. and i think this brings update opportunity to kind of -- what i don't see here and i know why, but i'm out there is how we can do more on the demand side? i know it does in the fall in the way we meet our obligation but ultimately needs to be part of a process of decision make with money and resources we are allocating to this. so. so00 afternooninging about that i wonder in -- obviously this is almost done in the next round the mule upon staff members allocate to do a bit more deep dive on roll of cites we use and how can that thou that would impact the numbers.

ultimately. and i'm talking about like not necessary low on a low bar but like from you know having 3 projects total to like every other home that is built in the future that way. trying to have uncertainty bounds around what we are dealing with and what demand level are we talking about what you talk about this. so, i'm not going to name, names i was visiting a recycling plant this past week. ron was there. so -- i asked -- about how much production they have. or how much recycled water they generate. based on what i remember they generate a 10th of when their planned for. >> right. that's a serious financial burden in addition to -- you know uncertainty that is a problem for them. and partly that is driven by the

fact that some of the campuses they hope they would sell their water to went and put on the use system. and also because will people -- started to do other things. so obviously the demand is not there. we want to make sure as we are planning we keep an eye on and i know you are but i'm like reemphasizing. an oi on affordable because if we over size the systems and end up building demand that think will come but not come. people go partial low off the grid and leaving us dry this means there would be people on the systems they have to pay for

it and if we don't plan mike partially end up being the burden carried by the low income communities. we tried hard not to get there. i want to -- put this on a board to make sure we remember as you do this. and seriously look at demand and not, just replace the toilets and all shower heads i think there are opportunity i'm not dismissing temperature do everything we can to improve if i can urs and you know -- appliances and everything. and on a technological side how demand will be -- alternate erred. think about all the different scene i can't recall i don'ts that we are facing.

good to have them as part of this planning process. and -- i think the then the question of financing. will become much more central to the conversations we are having and who will pay for what and how. it is great you are collaborating. everybody has a role and have a buy in to the projects. getting everyone's buy in is a process to deal with. i appreciated your comment we don't know what the future brings or what other limitations we might be facing. considering with the impacts

from climate change to environmental and different things they are concerned about i appreciate that being -- you know top of mind and keep that top of mind as we dealt with the different project it is. so. with that, thank you. for -- your presentation and look forward to the 3 more people you have more time and more people to help you with this important project. thank you, thank you for that. i agree with you. so. if there are no more questions. >> no. >> can we are public comment, please. mechanic when is wish to ment on item 4a press star 3 to speak.

thank you. [inaudible]. hetch hetchy. 2 minute system short time. the best way to get most water for the lowest cost is bank ground water. puc this years ago and said it was complex n. 30 years valley water invest in the groundwater banking. metro banking ground water in the mohave area. there are huge mounts of your deliver capability that has gone on. but you have not developed the arrangements withtur look. east side deleasted groundwater

basin interested in making ground water and coming to an agreement. tur look water go throughtur look that is the arrange that has not been made that should be if you want to get the most amount of water for the lowest price you should be doing that are i'm a broken record on this. you really should pursue this everybody should go totur look and meet the board members and cut a deal. there is a tremendous opportunity. >> there are other reasons to do things like recycle water. i don't want to say that is the only thing fiwere you and worried i would look in banking groundwater most of the big

urban water agency in california are doing. thank you. >> thank you, so much will always good to have people here in person. >> >> do we have callers with hands raised. >> we have 12 callers wish to be recognized. >> item 4 a. >> caller i opened your line. hi am i open, i'm sorry. >> 2 minutes. okay. yes. thank you. i really appreciate the comments from commissioner ajami and what followed. the agreements. . the rate the draught planning matters. the long are drought planning requires more water or greater rationing and building water splice lead to a lot of heat

rate hikes. this is an unlikely scenario the sfpuc using the design draught it is arbitrary in spite of what has been win about it. from staff. and -- i would argue that you could easily take a year off and not increase the likelihood of a drought and we would have a better managed system and enable a fee the delta plan. the demand matters here. the designed drought after other policy decisions.

and you know slow rationing of water supply and rates. and i think it is really just in accomplice to put a barrier toward any acceptance of the delta plan. i appreciate, again, the comments from commissioner ajami and from [inaudible] i'm not great with names. a lot more work needs to be done and we can do more and have a healthy tuolumne river. thank you. next speaker, please. thank you this is jowly from palo alto. this will year our residence virus are full and over flow and ground water is replenishing the puc continues to false alarm we'll run out in future draught

years. [inaudible] the design draught numbers the sfpuc continued to use proved to be incorrect in the real world and also incorrect by the excellent scientific studies. by the tuolumne trust and scientists. policies [inaudible] tuolumne [inaudible] flows and fish exactly wildlife plummeted. the ecosystems of the river and delta at risk. now the puc is using the flawed design draught number to a tactic [inaudible] and potentially unnecessary alternative water project.

plantings and designs and irrigation system for public commercial landscape. the system use less irrigation water than a decade ago. moegz most achiefed reduced water use at no hardship. [inaudible]. the alarmed statements by your constituent water agency amanda 35% greater rationing [inaudible] [echo]. by correcting the design drought projection. next speaker, please.

two minutes. can you hear me. >> 2 minutes. good afternoon. i'm mary butterwic a long time resident of san francisco. i'm here today because the tuolumne is in ecological crisis. mainly through inadequate fill release i attended the workshops regarding flow management and threats on river functions including the maintenance of the cold water fishery in the tuolumne. 8.5 year design draught the tool for manage slow release. according to the commission's draft [inaudible] assessment the developed a return period for the 8.5 year design drought of

once in 25,000 years. i don't believe this is a reasonable approach for manage flow releases on the tuolumne. policies are damaging to the rivering environment during dry periods. when aquatic life meets slows the most. i urge the commission torous the eleventh design drought by a year and apply reasonable demand projections the finance bureau water sales [inaudible]. these actions go a long way addressing the water supply needs and allow for more in stream flows. i don't believe that rate payors should have to invest in expensive alternative water supplies that will not be need. san francisco residents care deeply about the environment. we look to you to be responsible stewards of the river.

of and by increase flows at this time tuolumne river. the question is do you need 92mgd of aisle water supplies? when you put solar on your house you make sure your house is efficient so you are not over invest nothing panels. get rid of that old after codo refrigerator from the 60's and put in an energy efficient model. the design drought is the current after cado refrigerator. president ajami asked good questions about demand and uncertainty, staff is not going to do anything with that unless you direct them to which you learned that last year when you

requested the comparison of demand from the water enter price and finance bureau. took staff 6 months produce a report. i did the graph in one day moiz and that report was very clear that the members outside envelope. would cost 300 million dollars per year. right. continue to sky rocket the board of supervisors is the issue will come before them. you can't change past mistakes like deferred maintenance.

you can prevent future mistakes you gotta start with demand projections and length of the design draft. punting on the issues expecting them for discussion after the workshop its has not happened yet, there is time. thank you very much and >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> denise for center for biological diversity. i am a customer i live in san francisco and wanted a couple weeks ago. how sad i felteen amongst the features of the valley. i will felt so sad. about the fish in the tuolumne. starving. why, my puc has blocked

increased flows now engage in the empire build nothing design draught. i urge to you make realistic design and know that we care about -- fish and ecosystems. and please, do what you can. to -- minimize the extra cost to rate payers like me. thank you. thank you for sharing your comments. next speaker, please. 2 minutes. i'm jessy raider a long time environmentist paying attention to the salmon population in california since i was on the

kid before moving to san francisco. unfortunately despite work [inaudible] in california despite education of every [inaudible] throughout the state things got worse that is in the because we don't know how to fix it. we do, we are waiting for the leader to have the courage to do so. i started paying attention when salmon collapsed and all commercial fishing had to be canseled. [inaudible] last chance [inaudible]. i ask, when have you done since 2008 to restore the salmon industry that built the wharf. science was clear there and assessments 50% of water remain in the river. the puc has been the worse siding with big ag the delta

plan over the welsches of the people of san francisco and it is society puc sits on the hard work done around the state to preserve this species. wasting gentleman money in habitat restoration cannot work without the water you are wasting the work of scientists, volunteers of the commercial firing industry. teachers, nonprofit and tribes. you acknowledge the people of the land and it is meaningless you can do that the people in the room have the power to do to restore the heritage of the native people of this land. puc is water rich you have artificial crisis in the face of an actual crisis. the risk of ecosystem collapse is greater than upon running out of wourt.

there are 9 callers remaining in the queue. we have 3 who joined. >> next next. you tw to minutes. thank you commissioner stays and he ajami for excellent questions. this is a manufacture crisis the bay delta plan is uncertain and the monopoly is well [inaudible] the projections are not calculated [inaudible]. era of golden building dams raising heights and water in the environment is residential deserve better. [inaudible]. the environment and san francisco credibility [inaudible]. please recontract realistically.

tuolumne. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. north carolina you dr. have 2 minutes. i'm scott the golden state salmon association. thank you for the opportunity to comment today. upon the san francisco puc is water rich and has created an artificial crisis that is always had 4 plus years of stored water unlike the sfpuc salmon and jobs, communes, cult sxurs families and river support are in the water rich. salmon numbers on the tuolumne river fallen by 99% since the 80s and 80% or more since 2018.

block environmental protection and go down ecosystem collapse for the bay and the river san francisco draws water from. i was working with the tribal organization in the executive director with the native people during salmon closures suicide rates and poverty rates pike and healthy food options replaced by cheap alternatives worsening the diabetes and heart rate disease rates 2-3 times the national average. reducing the drought boy a year others mentioned the puc would be able to manage the plan request minimal investment in alternative water and sends a message those hurting most to the salmon closures and the diminishing collapse we are on that the puc become a better

steward of the tuolumne river and live up to the notion that san francisco is the most environmentally places in the u.s. and the world. you think that the puc would want to be a lead in smart water policy. we find the puc doubled down on a position harming the environment, communes of color and tribes. thank you. next speaker, please. 2 minutes. >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm francis the water resource manager near bosk. wanted that i can this opportunity to alert you boska supports the efforts to develop and implement alternative water supply plan. thanks to the staff we had an opportunity to review and provide input on preliminary

sections of the plan. we have been able to discuss with your staff and to share our upon comments. wanted to thank the puc staff they presented the out lines of when the contents of the plan include to our board policy commissions well as to our water management reps. and -- boska looks forward to release of the toument. we sunday everunderstand tell be later this week. we will provide comments but it needs to be an important effort with the puc and staff under taken the recommendation section chapter 6 of the plan of great interest to you as commissioners. there is a lot of work left.

and there is smeeshgs here today that share occurrence over leaderships that relate to the plan but in boska's view this is the necessary plan wore committed to accompany the puc and their staffs they move it forward. all leaderships including the ones that commissioner ajami raised. thank you. thank you for sharing your comments. next speaker, please, two minutes. >> thank you. i'm bill martin a vol tire with siller club, resident and customer of the puc. i will give you numbers. than i are not up updated yet. the 94 to 95. san francisco had a population

of 120,000 then it was 874,000 i gain of 21%. and the 84-85 water year delivered 97 million gallonons a day to 720,000 people inform 2016-17, you delivered 63 million gallons per day to 875,000 people this is a drop of 30 brs. more than that 35% delivered to the population of san francisco over a period of 35 years. what occurs at water agencies and over and over investment in water supply not needed. the make that many agencies make

including the puc is to assume this demand will increase with population. as clear over the last the numbers i have begin you the san francisco population has increased. the amount of water you delivered has not. i think you need to look at the 244 million gallons per day in the alternative water supply plan and attach skepticism to that number because what has helped in the past and not reviewed water agencies drop throughout the state and country. thank you for sharing your comments. next speaker, please. i'm dave warner thank you for your service and thank you for having the impact the water

supply short fall start. demand. afford at and planning need to be study can't afford not to have high standard of care when our high water and sewer rates are increasing. drop planning. gross negligence not studying the design drop model risk. gross negligence k is a degree of negligence representing deperrure from the standard of care falling intent to do harm or negligence gross negligence is wanton and reckless construct asciiing life or property from cornel's law school. we know if you reduce the model by a year that will provide 20-25mgd. if you invest without studying this could cause water and sewer

rates to rise. and some ways you don't have a choice the provides indications for the design model to be reduced by a year with increase in risk. if you listen gwen to the design draught discussion last year's august third meeting neither then 2 made data supported a in defense of the drop model.

next caller you have two minutes. >> normal wallace. my great grand mother is burr ed in mission delores accept tear it is time to repair and restore our rate payer pregnancy will be ignorred. i used 11 gallons per day over 4 months the same to the [inaudible]. everything in balance for thousands of years until colonnizers ignored capacity and documented the affects in 1851. seems appropriate to consider this background. we know measures to store additional water make money for all involved. before a decision is made spending more money the citizens are owed an explanation of why

and a vote. it is san francisco population is in decline. san francisco suspect not agimportant. san francisco takes water from miles, way from stolen land in the sierras during the drought 4 years of water available and cutting water off during the times of day or people use more than 700 gallons a day not done we know there is supply now. why in only 250 years with destroy wetlands, rivers issue had been at that times and environments and cause the planet to tilt?

there are 3 more callers in the queue. my name is nancy. i live in san francisco i'm here as a member of the public and i would like to reminds you the sunshine ordinance government taoist to serve the public. decision and full view of public this is relevant today dealing with upon demand projections you made behind closed sdpoors refused to examine. your data shoes the water trend is down. your upon demands show upward movement times change and consider those changes. the public dem stated we can

constituents torlet government artificial design draught. next speaker, please you have two minutes >> thank you for the chance to comment. due to changes in the last year, it makes sense for the puc to revisit the design drought. your july 5, 22 report states that i quote, the projections represent know outside bounds of what demand will occur in the next 25 years. unquote. reducing by a year and using demand projeksz could will reduce the need for water rationing and the need for

alternative water supply that is low hanging fruit. puc commissioners should take this opportunity to strengthen their rep staigztation as responsible stewards. thank you. is that concludes comment on this item. >> thank you. public comment on 4 aclosed. >> item 4b is hetch hetchy improvement program report from katie miller. >> good afternoon president ajami and commissioners. noise to see you i'm katie miller director of water capitol programs. today i will share a sum row of the hetch hetchy improve am program for the third quarter

from january first to march 31st. these pie charts show status withit projects in preconstruction. 5 projects in construction multiple phases and 3 in close out. 242 million dollars has been spent for about 32% completion over all. during the past quarter. moccasin power house project completed plan and moved to the upon design phase. the am dam access and drainage completeed construction and moveed close out. 2 construction contracts advertised for the dam outlet work phase one project. 31 million dollars was 70. representing construction activity on the 7 construction contracts that are under way. this shows a summary of ecspend urs and forecasts.

water, power, joint water and power. there are no new cost variance in water or joint funding this quarter. however, 3 power funded projects had cost increases during the quarter for a toast 55 million dollars. 2 will further discuss in the following slides. cost forecast for the third project warn areville substation rehab in the planning phase. increased by 2 million. the first power funds project with large cost variance the moccasin bypass upgrade project, completed engineering report in march. the revised cost estimate added another 13. 3 million to the previous 12.7 million dollars variance if the baseline totalling 26 million variance at

this time. the variances are due to scope refine am during planning and increase in raw materials cost and increase in labor costs we talked about the costs increases over the past couple years. the second project moccasin powerhouse and transformer rehab is forecasting increase of 40 million dollars. the first subproject to replace the gent rirt step up trans formys reached completion with the second transformer make the past winter shut down and successful start up with month. 4 million dollars of the of variance is do you to this subproject increasing construction costs due to unforeseen conscience special additional construction management. . costs.

and add the 2 million dollars to the 40 million dollars of the project for construction nothingment support. the 30 powerhouse system up grid completed engineering phase and the majority of the variance with forecasted cost increase of 34 million. due to scope and refinement. the 57 stock project completed assessment test nothing february you may recall i shared in the past from this cracks were benched near the saechls the pipes.

during the quarter. because it is now likely the stocks will need to be fully replaced. >> significantly increased the future project costs. we'll get back to the cost increases. mountain tunnel project was delay exclude shortened 49 days instead. 60 days due to winter storms. significant work performed the manager randy anderson shared with you during the last update. new flow control and successful low connected to the mountain tunnel during the stut shut down other work including tunnel lining. a rock trespass in the tunnel and access read improvements. i will be happy to answer

questions. any comments? great. vehicle. public comment on this item. members who wish to make 2 minutes of remote comment on item 4b press star 3. there are in callers the this time. >> public comment on 4b is closed. 4c wastewater quarter leave report southeast area project update biosolids head works and [inaudible] will present.

>> good afternoon. i'm here presenting the capitol quarter low updates. for the last time. i'm happy to announce that we have back filled my position and the new director of the program is steffi chan. and she is one of our senior project managers looking after the collection system. . so starting with a few updates. an area of storm water project and construction completion for march. 24 next year. the scope was complete third degree is most of the 36 inch

president believe water. [inaudible]. north shore pump station. and construction completion in may of next year. typing that come with supports and fresh blocks and steel frames and electrical work. the third is the west side pump station reliable improvement project next to the zoo. compolice june of 24. and the condition transactor initiated the electrical switch gear equipment we have a new electrical bodying there. reporting the 4.4 billion dollars no change. we closed 52.sick %. continuing the increase progress

made. blue area chose 7 projects designing the award. no change. project and construction. this is table 3 from the quarter low report showing costed out phase one and the other leaderships of ss ip and summarizing expand tours and budget. cost increase of 22 million dollars over all. decrease of 27 million in this quarter this is due to some projects moving to completion phase and work for seismic reliability at southeast. a decrease and also condition improve ams of southeast part one 18 million got us up to 27

million in the reduction of this quarter, which is good. >> for product a decrease in forecast costs. and table 3 slows this continued onward. another point a 1 million dollars and decrease in this quarter. we issued construction notice to proveed for the bake recall project one of the sewer discharges. we completed it on engineering for maintenance and southeast.

the walls and now going up and you are seeing construction of solids pretreatment building building continues with completion work and waterproofing and slab work. and then construction for the dewatering building. since it is my last and acknowledge the work that happened leave a couple to the end i wanted that i can this photo and zoom in and look at this in detail acknowledge that

a number of years ago there were existing building says now demolish exclude work and now out of the dirt. construction term we are above ground you seat walls going in now. the community pulled together to pull this off and get to the stage. >> so. the same with head works i will wareroom in. civil electric at work influence find screen grip work at the beginning the flow come in and grip time and order control and testing the electrical work censors and mechanical work and work on pipe racks. if i zoom in here you seat work that happened here. we'll acknowledge this project

is different from biosolids the sense it is live the flow continues and build thanksgiving i piece at a time. proud. thank you to the team. and finished with the community center this is the left time we should touch on this one. we are in the project close out phase the building opens and and using it. it is great. and as i hand over to betsy thanks to howard fung. the manager of the of bureau acted director for the time and a center like this i asked for factoids and the opening had 681 events in the facility. welcome over 27,000 visitors.

thank you. gragz may be we'll finds other things to presentful i will be back. not going. >> excellentful colleagues commissioner stacy. >> thank you for your presentations mr. robinson we appreciate you stepping in and welcome mrs. tammy you have a big challenge specialing complex earnprize ahead and i think that so much of this program is important. in many ways for neighborhoods and the became the renewable and replacement program is on going change and i know our knowledge is e involving and these

impressive projects were important to the city. thank you and good luck! any other comments. >> this is i was excited hear the numbers you shared about the -- new -- southeast and also the community center we visited that last year, right. time flies i can only imagine i saw pictures. how nice it look and great to see communities using it and taking advantage of temperature it is important. i would say somebody i was talking to someone i can't remember. my memory lapses suggested to meet there for coffee.

hopefully sign will go well and have coffee. and all the other parts of that facility. just -- you know going onward. and after the challenges we were faith. thank you for your presentation. why community event yesterday at the community center reminded me we talked about this for the community but for the city. and i want to think about the other projects they recall jewels in the work and pride we are move thanksgiving forward. why a quick question. since i was talkil do it. how do we so on the people use the facility for the events are

there like if businesses do they pay and like nonprofits is there a price. there is a tier's trushth for events who wants to use it or why. in point this men a challenge we balance. it is busy. there is a tiered trushth. it is great. commissioner maxwell >> thank you for the numbers i have been to a quarter of the events than i are really people are excite exclude they are still excited. i think that we seat need and filled a community need that makes me feel like we are on the right track.

welcome. we need to go see that. we will be out in judging in august or september we can take an individual and i want to see them before they are covered up. i want to seat guts of it all. and i think it would be great if we could i appreciated seeing the supervisors had been out there. that is important to invite thome when we are doing so they when we are doing and can seat costs and why. great point. >> commissioner. >> thank you for this report. as usual when you are up there speak thering is an analysis of what is going on. the southeast it is excite to see that as it moves forward.

i like to go out again i have been on a major tour know if you remember. i like to go again. thanks to the plug about the community center. i -- i go out and have coffee had i'm not doing a lot and done for coffee. i was there with a colleague and she was hungry. got a by the and had souch and i read in the the chronicle rave reviews. i said i wonder where that was and i had been there. it was busy exit know the space were rented out. community. non% and a premium in the city. thank you for this. that is not a wonderful facility

it is beautiful and well designed t. is a gem in this town. thanks and welcome aboard. i have one quick ask of you. are we documented the biosolid project like visually >> absolutely. >> it will be fantastic to build to -- create a video or -- we are all sitting here who knows 4 years from now who will be here. of having the documentations like video. it is important. not just for future commissioners butt public to know what is going on. may be the walls in the community center can be dedicated the tv's to keep running videos about the projects. the videos this was built during

the anniversary. where you are spengdz the monwhale it takes to operating the system they defend on and all the work -- and energy behind all the different piece. the master plan in the late 90's the scope to include the vision make it accessible for people to understand. strong influence of the project we want an open space for people it see and link that to the community center as well. and from a construction perspective. a strong eventual record time

lapse and video and our own construction 44s out there. documenting the people the w that is happening. we celebrate cool product and the work going on. am if you browse link in the and see will firms they are posting there. and celebrating the people and the work happening. >> i'm think burglar my kids on virtual. they can say i want to go. water treatment. one day. they can ask. thank you for that. >> i appreciate that. commissioner paulon. >> the time meeting but i feel like i have to i know you have been take pictures and glad

commissioner ajami asked about the archives. when i went up to the 100than verse row for the ceremony up and down an archivist on the bus and i guess we have one. that person finds everything. where i live in bernal heightings a bunker from 1930's city attorney jumped stuff. and we like to you think anyway all the stuff exists. not guilty project i think it was katie miller showed a visual of the history of the reservoirs in the city. where sheing how, what was done and documenting the retrofit.

should be out there not in a bunk in treasure i land this is the living infrastructure and agency this knows when it is doing. thanks. thank you >> thank you >> can we. >> yes. >> i mike is our historian who -- was a commission secretary here. take its seriously and photographers are excellent and the communication team takes a deal of pride in documenting the history and working with mike and others to make sure that the legacy and the good work is accessible. coming we take seriously.

public comment. >> members who wish to make 10 minutes of remote comment on 4 c press star 3 to speak. . i commends the commission and staff for work special effort its make it all public low apparent and tell everybody when you are doing. thank you. good afternoon, commissioners i'm here for another item i have been involved with the wastewater system for so long. i could not help to comment of now. it is tremendous and great seeing all this work happening

after this time when my first kid was born old enough evermust have to ask me why it smelled like an out house. this is where the city's poo-poo party is. nice to go and roadway my bike and not smell. it is great to see the protect. birch close my report, commissioners, i just wanted update you as you are aware on may 23 you approved our water

wastewater rates. there was a hearing called for by a member of the board of supervisors to consider our rates lead to the pot they would be rejected that appeared before the committee on june the 13th and our rates were not rejected than i were approve exclude go in affect on july 1. and on upon june 14th the next day we appeared before the budget mittee to have our budget and capital program considered and that was voted out unanimously with many good words issued by the budget committee on the grak work done by our staff here at puc. that's my u. commissioners. >> thank you. do we need to have public comment. thank you. member who is wish to make comment on 4d.

press star 3 to speak. public ment is closed. >> thank you. can we call the next item? >> item 5 consent calendar. colleagues any comments, questions about the items that we have on consent. i don't have questions. can we have public ment on in, please. >> members wish to make remote comment on item 5 the consent press star 3 to speak.

if there are no questions or comments on consent can i have a motion and a second. >> move to approve the consent calendar. can i don't have a roll call. president ajami >> aye >> vice president maxwell. >> commissioner paulon >> aye >> commissioner stacy. >> aye. >> you have 4 aye's. >> the items pass. can we read the next item. >> item 6 adopt the 2023 san francisco puc commission wildfire mitigation plan revision and inspect evaluation report and authorize the manager to file it with the california office of energy and infrastructure safety wildfire and advisory board before july 1

of 2023. >> good afternoon, commissionersch i'm sheryl. i'm the business services manage for hetch hetchy water. i'm here to present our wildfire mitigation plan and ask commission, prove our plan. margaret's anymore is on the presentation. bring up the slides we are in the midivity of a compliance odd tit is going limp i'm joined by ethan who is a wildfire mitigation analyst and danny who is an inspect evaluator from grid sme. upon the pu c owns and min tains assets within wildfire risk areas. by state law we are required

construct, maintain and operate the electrical lines and equipment in the american that will minimize the risk of catastrophic wildfire, posed by electrical lines and equip this . 23 wildfire mitt gaying plan is a revision. it has been reviewed by an inspect evaluator. who will be presenting his findings to this commission today at the end of my presentation. this map shoes p you gos c electrical asset in relation to the high fire threat districts. tiers range 1-3 one a moderate risk. to tier 3 colored in pink. being considered extreme risk >> most puc assets reside in the tier 2 high fire threat district

with small segments of distribution residing in the tier 3 on the western side of the pel anyone as well. wildfire midgation plan principles include mine miegz the source ignition of a fire. which we address through our vegetation management and asset inspections and maintenance programs. another is resiliency of the grid addressed through inspeksz, maintenance and equip upgrades or replacements. we measure plan effectiveness and performance to ensure we are continuing to strife toward improvement.

we have metrics you see that line 3 which is regarding wires dmoun a high fire threat district. that is going down. and upon thus reportable ige missionings are going down as limp reportable e mission is puc facility associated with the admission of the fire. fire was self prospectigating and material other then and there the communication facilities and the resulting fire greater than one linear meter from ignition pointful we are seeing a decrease in wires down and reportable ignitions i would loishg to turn it over to danny. after that we will take questions from the commission

and the public. i'm danny and -- my background is a form are utility director with san diego gas and electric in 2007 had major wild fires this san diego county. i was director of electric operations and had the experience of helping utility build out and formalize mitigation program. that's my experience i bring to the process. my role as an evaluator is to assess the -- puc mitigation plan.

will relate to 8387 those are requirements a utility must abide by. my kosovo to review the plan and ensure it is comp pensive and addressing each the 17 elements of the plan. sheryl mentioned we look at different asspekts of the plan as far as the asset inspections. how you assess risk and the different components how you reduce that risk. i think the most significant advance the utility made was a wildfire mitigation application. the leading child fire company used throughout the industry and really a major player in

california supporting the major utilities including cal fire and the california utility commission. so. it gives the sfpuc a daily visual of when the risks are in this day. and modify their operational requirements for field personnel to reduce the risk of potential ignition during that time of this was a huge veterans and want a tool for wildfire mitigation everything is built off the information you get from this application. puc want to commend them they improve on the plan looking at the met ticks and all the things than i can do to improve on the

plan. and only 2 recommendations i made this year are really -- more so not from the fact the programs are supported but the fact they are operationalidesing the wildfire analyst tool. my recommendations they operationalize that tool. as thigh move into next year. in conclusion reviewing the leaderships of the code we found that the mitigation plan is comprehensive and recommend approval of the planful thank you. >> thank you. commissioner mechanic wel. >> could you expand more about the -- tech no silva? how does it work.

arialor monitors. could you expand more on how that works. its funational and important. >> sure. upon good afternoon. it is -- they take historical data with fire data they captures over 30 years tlaun through -- an algorithm i don't understand the science but it takes in account is daily moisture levels. geography. winds, humidity and it takes all that data special produces a fire potential index. that tells you if a fire were to start that day, how fast that fire would spread. how big it would get. if theed fire gets burned how

big could it get? takes into account the populations near and potential buildings destroyed. can also -- estimate potential populations impacted. it is a useful application for -- wildfire mitigation and prevention and emergency planning if a fire does happen. where are the pitcher ligzs going to be how many populations what is the amount could be impacted? that can help us make operational decisions daily. i hope i answered >> you did, thank you. when you say live and dead fuel. so -- it gets the under brush. what about what are we looking at with dead fuel. trees down. fires? correct. trees that have fallen. they are laying on the ground

decomposing and you are looking at grasses and things that have died or gone through the life cycle for that season. they are all in this index. water content? >> yes it is used for the moisture levels. >> that is really how long has this been how long going on? for the application? i am thinking about the fires we had. why and -- when did we know how long we have been use thanksgiving application? >> we got the first viable product of the application the diversion we are using is we are the puc the first public utility using this. the rest have been the learning are iou,ical fire and custom built this application for us.

of got first protect i think -- last september. and since we have been working with tech no silva to refind this and make it work for us and hopeful low down the line others can may be use this as well. >> i guess they would take into consideration climate change and what is going on with that and looking at forecasting and put thanksgiving in there? iel this is taken in, count and just how the fires evolve they electronic that how long they get. ignition source.

commissioner stacy. >> thank you so much for the upon are the and the evaluation. i have a question about something not clear in the report. it mentions this there are connections to pg and e facilities to puc power facilities and i'm remembering this there are easements pg and e trans mission lines or other equipment. on pu c lands. does the puc also take responsibility for this vegetation manage! or something this is up to pg and e on puc lands and men i'm wrong? we have maps of our transmission and distribution systems and have metrics and requirements

maintaining those. >> as far as pg and e connections than i would be responsible for their asset this is are connecting but if you like more we will look at what they are. we can come back and present that information as an update. the interconnections were addressed in the report but whether there are other pg and e transmission lines on puc left-hand side and how the puc addresses those potential hazards or if we review something pg sxeshgs prepares? and easements i recall.

mr. general manager for water there is a line the jefferson martin line that runs up the peninsula on the watershed property and pg and e has the responsibility for this line. do we review their strategies for the wildfire hazards y. we keep track of it. mr. grown we review their plans but do awork they have gas lines. we have interaction with them. good, thank you. i wanted to commend staff and the reports for the on going evolution of how the puc addresses wildfire management we are always learn dpg acquiring new information whether from the wildfire analyst, technology or past experience. i really want to emphasize how

fortunate is to keep evolve nothing how we address those it hazzard and when we learn along the way. i have worn more question. staff are you recommend thanksgiving we adopt the recommendations contain instead evaluation report? that was not clear to me. in our -- motion. our first resolve clause adopt the revision and the evidence. i wonder if we can be more specific in that resolution and say we adopt and implement the recommendations of the inspect evaluation report. i think that it is gwen an emphasis on continuing to monitor when we know and how we

apply that knowledge which is important. approach. yes, thank you for the feedback and incorporate that. >> okay. after we hear public comment. i can. make the motion. we will make surety change is made. >> thank yo let's go back to silva i have a few questions. are we going, thank you. are we going to have the algorithms behind the model? so we the algorithms that we are using we were provided by pg and e they have done a lot of the leg work their algorithm approved by the cpu c. we don't have the all the algorithm behind temperature

some of that is proprietor information but we have a prayer about how this algorithm gets implemented and creating the fpi we can provide if you like. >> so -- i'm a fan of wildfire mitigation. and the work has been don. on wildfire. and -- wild fires and water. if is hard to adjust and a adopt as things change. i would like in house skill sets that enable you to do more.

a lot of companies are popping up with to thes that help people apply and identify risks and you know00 oop recommend some actions. which is important. i want to make sure we have that skill set it is not one of the things tell finish, get the things and run it. things will change and everything will be different. and when you said which is important every watershed is

different. you know than i are built for us. i wonder if and they had to adopt typeset to our specific case and situation. and i want to make sure we bring in people and we hire someone. who can actually keep an eye on this. we are doing now all the work on oomph00 hydro modeling and in hetch hetchy. right. same needs to happen. so long comment to say, i'm not sure what the process simple i would like to build that skill set in house. and i would like for you to go behind the scenes and say, you know what? i will test 50 different scenario and change this and that and calibrate it to a different situation and put climate in and you know.

readjust the program terse and calibrate and see what happens. you know and i wonder when the process is. but i would like that see is this. the second thing i would say is -- sorry. i had i comment on the -- one of the recommendations. formalize use of operating conscience consistent. i was not sure what that recommendation minute. the wildfire analyst application. and providing a risk index to the operation's people daily. i -- i consider anal gus when

you go in a national foresxeft see fire danger rating today if norm will you can do had you want. but if it is high fire danger rating you can't bbq or open fires or whatever. that is similar to -- the operating conditions that are established for the u mil tillity most have it normal, eli haved and extreme wildfire conscience. if you are xroem and tech no silva political will provide you the risk index if you are extreme, you know that index will come out around midnight for the following 4 days and it is a rolling -- evaluation as you go along. your daily operations are -- when your crews come in the morning. at a -- extreme risk today.

you can't drive off road. you have to stay on paved roads. you can't do work. whatever other requirements put together by utility or ref strikzs that's what you impose. if you are norm tality is business as usual. those operating conditions have not been formalizes application is being built out this is the next phase i think you know -- we will get that done no later than the end of this year. >> okay. >> thank you. on the tool. does it come out with the mitigation strategy? give you different strategies as well? >> sore mostly preparedness and

risk? there are -- different applications will provide you that the model we have does not provide that. provides you what your daily fire index is. it gives you all of the other tools and visibility to all your situational aware knows. the weather stations that are available. high definition wildfire cameras on the mountain tops you see those 24 hour basis. there are other applications. a wildfire risk reduction model that will take your historical data for failures you have with okay what was the winds doing? the temperature.

of risk and then start prioritizing how start mitigating the risks. that is an additional component you can get although that is in the part of the application today. so. >> thank you. i think men that is the area of growth for us. and i think this there is enough content we can potential low have someone look in that. and you know. summer interns bringing them in doing research.

and -- garth information. see when we want. that would be useful to figure out what else do we need in this application? that does not exist would like to have? one other thing i would say this is an area that provides an opportunity for us for our water and i know we are working together but water and -- power worked together. you know all the assets. all this -- wildfire mitigation. activities have water and -- energy. benefits. not vulnerable.

the application is wonderful and i hope we don't forget the human management and important to have boots on ground. i was in the >> >> i hope we don't forget we need to hire and train young people. we need to get them in the forest so they have an idea and able to use the tools. they are important. but so are boots on the upon fwround and human ice seeing what else is going on. thank you.

>> though were aspects we lockeda the a commend utility for doing the training program and efforts going around fire mitigation. having the experience when we went through this that was a hard thing to community to people in the field. because their life was to operate a certain way and don't change temperature they have done a good job. thank you for this we would not know our folks are modest they don't tell us the great things they dom thank you for doing what you are doing. thank you very much. we agree with your comments and feedback. it is appreciated. thank you. >> thank you. it is is not easy.

[laughter]. in the mountains. easy to sit here twice a month and comment. you are dealing with the daily. of we appreciate that. thank you. >> public comment, thank you. >> members of the public who wish to make remote ment on item 6 raise you were hand. gentleman ahead. good afternoon. i'm here on another item. i wanted mention margaret came speak on the issue. and also we have that information and still concerned about, spoke about the lines on the east bito the mountains. we are concerned about the things going on the peninsula.

appreciate you brought that up. and since you mentioned the concern about patriot contractors. new in the field in the area of research i want toup lift the work of san jose state university's wildfire interdisciplinary center. and they are doing great work on fuel loads, modeling and potential for i great partnership. thank you. anyone else present for comment. do we have remote callers? >> there are no callers. >> public comment on item 6 is closed. >> perfect. clothes if there are in comments or discussions can i have a motion and second. >> we have an amendment >> yes. i think -- i think commissioner

stacy will mention them. then a second y. go ahead. >> i was going to move we approve with the clarification in the first resolve clause we are adopting the report and directing implementation of recommendations. >> thank you. second >> we haveful a motion. and -- to approve the amendment -- item and a second. can we have a roll call. >> president, jamy >> aye >> vice president maxwell. >> aye >> commissioner paulon. >> aye >> commissioner stacy. >> aye >> 4 aye's >> that item passes. >> please read the next we will

have the item 7, 8 and 9 presented together. could you read those items. >> item number 7, prove the water commercial paper program agreements securities incorporate the. jp morgan and list faringer and the manager to enter in the agreements in the associated agreements. item 8 authorize the issuance of up to 450 million water revenue upon bobbeds subseries a bond and 2023 subseries b bonds delegate to the managers authorization to appoint under write and enter in one or more contracts selected from the city pool. prequalified subject to a procure am process with the stele's policies and procedures

with respect there to. subject the limits on the under writer compensation in the resolution and authorize the generaling manager to negotiate the sale of the 23 water bonds as the general manager determines in the best financial interesting of the puc. subject to the terms of the resolution. . 9 authorize the issuance of water revenue bonds 2023 series c and subseries d bonds approve the form of and authorize the delivery of related documents and authorize the general manager of the water bonds the general manager determines in the best interest of the puc. the derms of the resolution. >> >> good afternoon president,

jamy. would you like me to proceed? >> yes , sir. commissioners it is i pleasure to be back before you at your last meeting 2 weeks ago we presented the results of several successful financing for the wastewater enterprise. activities are around water and financings this we are seeking authorization for today. we use commercial per se to proceed with projects continuous low that you have approved. and then as that commercial paper capacity is exhausted we refinance those obligations with

bonds. and when we are here today to do is 3 things. first seek authorization for up to 450 million of new money. this it is new bonds is that will either refinance commercial paper or finance additional costs for the next 2 quarters. second low, who i we have done all the work for that new bond transaction we are taking an opportunity to potential low save money through refinancing i will explain this more in a few minutes. and timely for our commercial paper program are dealer agreements. these are the firms that continue to market our commercial paper when it is outstanding. terminate later in july and gone through an rfp process and worked with attorneys on new agreements. i appreciate you hearing all these 3 items together and home

to do so much more quickly than with 3 separate presentations. as you know, the east water bonds were on our -- capitol financing plan for the year. we completed the wastewater bonds. although we had originally projected the bonds would be sold this fiscal year because of slower spending and the opportunity to take advantage of refinancing we will price them if you approve them in of july. and similarly our power bonds will be coming a little later than originally forecast and they will come before you in september. as always our activities are centered around the premise we

are always trifle for example affordability. looking per ways to lower the costs of financing. and looking for opportunity to refinance existing bonds when we can. that is made it more difficult by the current interest rate environment. we'll show you we have opportunity for fully finance our debt. -- a team of senior leadership lead boy the general manager assistant general manager. water and infrastructure and our cfo and business service present to the rating agencies moodies and sxp. just yesterday the second of the 2 each confirmed high outstanding ratings for the

water earnprize come very important low confirm the stable outlooks the research publishd and now in the marketplace. as i mentioned -- when we do have the opportunity we work with our loans and grants teams for special financingrous the cost lower. we are not bringing any of this to you today this is all about bonds and commercial paper. the transactions before you is going to be 4 series in 2 sales. first 2 are the new money that is the refinancing commercial paper. by refinancing the commercial paper we free up exclusive allows the contracts folks to enter in new contracts and release those -- funds. second low, a week later, we

then proceed with refinancing. and i will explain this more but gwen that is split between to and the difference series reflect how the funds are being extended. you probably wonder. keep taught you about what has been happening with interest rates going up it sounds confusing why would we be refinancing when rates are going up. as you recall last year this was before i joined the puc you authorized a large taxable refinancing for our water enterprise. before those bonds could be sold the rates went up rapidly and unexpected low and that transactions no longer economic.

and as you see on the left chart there the first dot when the bonds were neighborhood and when they were dropped. and rates have done nothing but go you have further since. when is interested if you look at this chart that is the textable rates on the right are tax exempt rates you so they performed different low. the tax exempt market is smaller. it is more responsive to supply/demand features. one aspects is the relationship between taxable and tax exempt rates the second is -- something that i think the general public has learned beg your pardon in the plat several months. thanks to the events with certain bank who is invest in the long-term bonds with low interest rates. when rates go up.

when they go up dramatically. the value of thez bonds decreases. now, for most bond holders who hold the bonds to maturity. . the full value of the bond is pid at the maturity date and interest is paid until then. for those investors who want to sell early they would have to sell at a loss. when we can do and what many issuers and -- many sophisticated issuers in california and new york and southern california public power authority and a number are taking the opportunity to -- invite, investors -- to -- tender the boundaries and sell become to us. and we will make it a win/win. they will get more then and there they could get in the public market.

. but we will get say the bond is -- pricey 87 cents on the dollar. >> and -- rewith a mauler bond. that is how -- savings are are produced in addition, as you may recall, because of the tax cuts that were adopted in 2017. advance refinancings were e upon eliminated and the number of bonds were refinanced with taxable bonds even though they were original low tax exempt bonds. but we will do is -- tendser bonds that are taxable and

refinance them again with tax exempt bonds because it is the investors who are presenting these back this is a sound opportunity for us. they are not bonds that are currently callable or refinanceable. in the traditional bayh way where we require people to return the bonds. so we are inviting investors. the advantage of that is a win/win for the investor and for us. the disadvantage, of course, is we don't know until we go in the marketplace how much we refinancing we will do. tell be the discretion of the investors and how much liquidity they need. that's how the tendser ws. we have selected i female. of 6 investment banks to assist us with the 2 transactions.

we went through a competitive rfp process as we always do. and -- selected those firms from the controller's pre, proved under writing pool. the new money transaction. will be lead by list for example or securities. and -- or i should say that we are proposing that wells fargo lead new money transaction jerries leading refinancing based on their experience with similar trans actions in addition the rest is ramirez and company. rbc, u bs and u.s. benching. we have a diverse team of different types of under writers. i want to move quickly on the

next slide we show you the numbers in terms of proceeds we generate that will be fixed. and some of the members will change based on the enter rates we capitolize interest to minimize the impact on rate payors the first 2 years. little size and economics of refinancing the depends how much participation. in cat california received 77% participation. bay area excess of 30%. we have seen people as low as 14%. so it is really variable. it dem pends in part of the job our team does in terms of marketing to those investors and reaching out to them and depends

a great deal on the enter rate environment at the begin point we go in the market place. our state law we are required provide a good faith estimate by our municipal advisors. those other interest rates and well below the 5% that is ash soup in the our 10 year financing plan and represent saving in that respect, of course, the actual rates determined at the time of proigsing in mid-july. we have shown you this graph before and there is a lot to unpeculiar here. as you know when we sell a 30 year bond we are selling 30 different maturities. bonds. so that first gray line the bottom of the gray shading is the lowest point that interest

rates for a year bonds for the last 5 years. of gives you the 70's results

assuming 30% participation. for the refinancing. a very small layer of new money. relative to the like outstanding debt the yellow. to be off set by the refinancing this we do concurrently. quickly. the third series c is going to be issued as green label bonds. and as you know the -- puc has been a leader in issuing green bonds. we have issued green bonds every year but one since 2015. with our wastewater bonds issues more green this year than any year before. this will depends on the participation will be more.

. so before you today the number of documents for the a and c and c and d bonds. most of the documents other same. or similar. they are 2 offering documents one for each transaction to bond purchase agreements the agreements with the under writers. the supplemental indentures. that make the parody with prior bonds. and then -- because the refinancing of series c and d an escrow agreement governs the refinancing and have both an invitation to tend exert dealer agreement for that tendser process. you may recall when you approved the water bonds a year ago you

approved a changes to the is up elemental indenture that we are, proved by the rating agencies at the time. that since this transactions was not completed, this one will complete those changes. as you recall on february 14th you went through disclosure training with our counsel and city attorney. we can't make material misstatements in our documents and that's the standard we use. we worked with. of the law firm to prepare our disclosure document. the city attorney's office worked with us on both the transactions ticket with bond counsel north an rose. including their office in london because one of the transactions

was from the london exchange. we need to provide them with the same notice of provide to investors in the domestic market. and so -- our recommendation here is for adoption of the documents for the a and b new monand he c and d refinancing. approving the documents for sale and authorizing the general manager to enter in those agreements. and if i may quickly add to this before you proceed with your vote. the factions will process in mid-july close by early august. lastly, we want to also sign the deal are agreements so what our commercial paper can continue to be remarketed. again we went through an rfp process. selected dealers and this item

simply allows us to continue with dealers. there is no change in the price for that it is a very standard fee of 5 basis point in thes marketplace. with that, hopeful low a made that shorter than hearing all 3 sprit low and happy to answer questions. >> thank you. colleagues, questions? >> who -- so you said that you decided to go in the upon tinder and who came up with this idea?

they am oshg pine us whether we have fair pricing for our bound everbongds at the end. we also part of our process, for the solicit ideas and -- and -- looked how other agencies have approached it. and when will be most successful for us. the ideas if multiple people can solicited ideas how we can do this better? >> yes. although we were hearing the idea early. as the market opportunity came up, we are -- we are later in taking advantage in part we waited for a new money there is less risk doing it at the same time.

less cost as well. and we have been able to watch what others have done as well. thank you for your details and thorough reporting. i think that -- this aspect of -- what the puc does is an important part of -- keeping our projects affordable. clearly good project management and choosing projects wisely. the on going monitoring and analysis and watching and figuring out theical bragz of when and how to -- issue the bonds and how they inneraccount with each other is an important part whf we do. and i appreciate the tutorial in february.

put it down in bullet point and i statistic for us to see, there i know there is, lot in it. i remember one time when you know i surprised my parents and -- told them i was getting a degree in economics they said

what for. we have to count on your team putting together the financing. federal reserve did in the raise the prime what does in money. upon don't worry we will do it again next week. when you are looking at all this stuff it irrelevant is makes things feel volatile but now it is not that volatile in the market. but just to hear the -- what we are dying and approve is --

reassure to hear the analysis you give us. thank you. throughout process does that mean we will have less money available to us? this will issue refinishing we obtain bonds in i different way then and there we normally do. norlally we tell the market we are ready to refinance the whatever 2015 bonds and we will call the bond and issue new bonds. at a lower rate.

we invite the investors -- to do it. it is only because of unusual market conditions they would be incent sunriseed do it. 91 of them have to do temperature it is their choice. but we give them an economic incentive to want to participate. so. through the economic incentive we are giving them, if we buy bonds back, 80 cents of a dollar? somehow, member is losing money. right. whoech is losing that 20 cents?

sometime a value. >> let me give you an example. if somebody bought a bond i mimode to refer to my notes. in upon 20 between a taxable bonlt. that matures in 2021. they can sell that to somebody else. will not receive the money back. somebody else is sell bonds with higher rates. the value of the bonds bought in 2020 have gone down.

many buy they want to hole them. they will get the interesting and 100 cents on the dollar. but because -- they are -- the bank or because -- they simple low see other victim opportunity that are better. m they may want to sell and get the proceeds and invest in other things. bonds are sellings the marketplace ours are being sold in the market place. we see that pricing and our -- communal advisor and bankers assist us in terms of minimizing the cost this is we pay. but -- tell be a cost that --

incent sunrises people to participate and produces savings. of course, by policy. you have -- adopted a policy this provides minimum savings target of 3%. to proceed we have -- trucked our team minimum of 5%. now it depends which bonds are presented. generally 8% based on numbers we have been seeing. you got temperature you just i'm going to simple pie it for myself and you tell me. we are buying our own bond for example they bought it for i dollar and from them. for 80 cents? so the loss is on them but trying to figure out if than i can take that moncompetence

invest it in something else that would pay off more. that's what happening in the process. >> and we are advertise to provide the opportunity.

i was wondering if the green bod market and the general bond market are than i having the same movements? how are than i functioning? when are the differences? do we care? like i'm trying to figure out. i was curious with the silicon valley bank it difficult on go under and figure out which are green and which are general. how they function. do you have insight. i think you can all publish proud that you are one of the leading issuers of green bonds in the nation among municipalities.

we continue to be frustrate thered is no more of a pricing difference in the green and nongrown this guess become to how this concept was sold to the investors. make the same aim regardless of which they buy. >> and then the municipalities were promised some day they will be a difference. as the marketplace grow and funds are created that have to invest in green bonts we should see a pricing difference when we are already seeing.

as the orders came in they gravitate ed the green bonds there was a preference for those and -- we will have one public comment for the 3 items and 3 different motions. public ment on 7, 8 and 9. >> 2 minutes of remote comment on items 7, 8 and 9 press star 3 to raise your hand to speak.

there is one call are wish to speak. >> okay. you have 2 minutes. >> i lean. speaking on my own behalf. regarding agenda item 9, this funding goes become to 2015 bonds. which begs the question why you waited up to 8 years to refund some of the bonds. regarding item 8, refer to selling and refunding bonds. your those fund and refunding bonds commingleded in the same item. on june 14 the board of supervisors budget appropriation mittee heard the puc request to authorize additional. although the item was moved

forward to the board. a positive recommendation. this item has not different heard at the board at today's meeting and the full board on union 20, juneteenth the full board has not approved the puc request, is this puc item premature? all city departments have capitol needs include aging infrastructure and climate change. that's why the capitol plan has low, medium and high scenario with reduction of the proposed capitol plan if the puc headed for the same fiscal cliff as the mta? for the operating revenue to get ratio, it is leading to the pu xrshgs make policy decisions

which resulted in the lives of 2 million lives. most of them were artist, diplomats or aristocrat or anybody intellectual. they want today do a cleansing and raise a new society. so many of us looked for another. after the genocide. began most commonly in the 80s, my family arrived in 1981, while america gave us a lot of hope and a new life, it also presented a lot of challenges for culturation and i think for cambodia refugees struggling with the dark history, we see ptsd and trauma and and it

inspired the this next song called "belief" ♪ don't you cry ♪ ♪ you're going to make it ♪ ♪ don't you cry ♪ ♪ you're going to make it ♪ ♪ you were day and night striving striving in this new land to make a good life ♪ ♪ boy and girl struggling through ♪ the flat land below the city life ♪ ♪ don't you cry ♪ ♪ you're going to make it through, you survived, you made it here alive ♪

in the 1985 film, the killing fields which was the story about what took place in cambodian and he was the first asian of cambodian american that won the oscars for his role. when i look at his life, was a actor and also a human rights activist, and a lot of us here, especially like me, born in cambodian but spent most of my life here, i always felt that i had that duty and always awareness about what took place in cambodian. so i want to share the stories through my music, i want people to know what happens and i think while my parents's generation, they struggled about sharing their stories and what they witnessed, what they went through, it's pretty

important to remember because by remembering is how we can honor all those that we lost in the genocide but also pray that history does not company itself. this one is about coming out of the darkness and finding that, you know, the light after the dawn. it's called "like a rose." ♪ when the dark days come ♪ ♪ i ain't going to run ♪ ♪ when the dark days come ♪ ♪ oh listen to the morning song ♪
