we have to think not just about the,hydrology, but also management. as chuck said, we spend billions of billions of dollars building a very sophisticated system in the west united states and it's complicated and let's test it. draw down the river 25 feet and see if our models are right. there's a lot of things we can do with models without physically doing it. there's compelling scientific evidence that posted challenges to our water systems. unfortunately, there's pretty serious evidence that we may not about quickly or effectively enough to prevent some pretty extensive consequences for us. i think that's a problem. . manager's must use current tools but also look at future risks. policy manager's have the opportunity to do this. we already manager for variability and risk. we build homes in earthquake zones not knowing how big or when the earthquake will be. but we manager risks and we have lots of tools for doing that management but we're not doing enough yet. either in planning or actually on the ground action. we do need to take more on the grou

what these things have in common is that tools that rely on traditional, natural ,hydrology, will work better in the future. there's one exception. our existing system because of snow,packs is likely to spill more water tomorrow than today. those uncaptures spills is water that can be captured by new storm. what we have not seen and we looked around the west, we have not seen anything look at all those of 6 or 7 previous factors that reduce yield and increase yield in that issue. we think balance on all those tools will perform more poorly, that does not mean they're off the table but as water supply options they're going to get more expensive in the future than today. next. what about desalinization, the source is less effected by climate change than fresh water. it presents design issues but water manager cans plan around that. the key issue is, energy. desalination is energy intensive and those will be increasingly scrutinizeed the future because of climate issues. it's about one third in southern california next most sensitive operation but that gap is shrinking rapidly and it's co

it is not addressed in the hazards and hydrology section. storm waters and floods are done to make sure that they can maintain future operations -- i am constrained by the three minutes. believe the future operation and maintenance should be included by the product description and further analysis should be evaluated. in the previous staff reports, i would refer to to be an addendum of the commission meeting from friday august to, north coast district item f4a, local coastal program amendment crcmaj-1-09, for the alliances and purposes of the sale of all rate of 3 p per century is going to be used. you mentioned in the report tsunami hazards should account for sea levels of 3 feet 26 p per century, however, project plans only accommodate 36 inches of c rise and an additional 6 inches of freeboard. however, we believe it will not be adequate for the lifetime of the project. no definitive publication had been produced that addresses the sea level rise, which makes it impossible to determine the appropriate height. it is conceivable in the life

that, these are near turn gains we can do as we get to the long-term as far as uncertainties and hydrological issues that might take a longer time to resolve. >> i just want to come back down a little bit to something a bit on the specific side and add to specific points. chuck and i spent some time yesterday talking about infrastructure and knowing it and knowing where your pipes are and what they can and can't do. yesterday as a waist water person listening to this, i'm thinking pipes and pumps which i'm sure your thinking too but your talking,dams, and canals and part of that is understanding each others language but what i want to add is there's a tremendous amount of coordination and research to know pipes kind of work. i worked together with some on a number of things and there's a huge management effort on going, with, epa, to add a drinking component to that. a tool to know where your pipes are. you would be surprised how many people out there that don't know where the pipe is. they rely on joe to know where the pipe is. when joe retires we have a problem. so we need so start remember

this is hydrological map here that shows you the river gauges here at portage.e you can see that big crest earlier this morning. so it's going to slowly start to fall off the next couple of days. and this was literally, what, a tenth of a foot shy of that record. so just a tremendous amount of power from this water and a tremendous amount of pressure on a very old levee system. on the wisconsin dnr website, it says basically the only reason this levee hasn't been compromised in the past is because it hasn't had this much pressure. it hasn't seen a major flood like this. so dangerous moments and a scary situation unfolding now in central wisconsin. >> yeah, it's come in a very big way. thank you, jacqui. >>> increased scrutiny for the pentagon after about 10,000 copies of an army intelligence officer's memoir were burped. defense department officials say the book threatened national security. it's called, the book is, "operation dark heart." and last hour i spoke with the author, lieutenant colonel, anthony shaffer, about what it was like having to re-edit the bo
