we interface with each and every one of our utilities and their exercise programs. we carry the best practices from one utility to the next to share that knowledge across discipline. we then execute decisions on the catastrophic plan for california, the one coming up here in the bay area so all utilities understand their role that needs to be played and we can plug and play and the class ral utilities that are going to be called upon to support it from the private and municipal side and this is an on-going living process. working with the local jurisdictions, the county jurisdictions always, the states north and south and the state operations center and then supporting whatever the fema initiatives are moving out from that in cross-discipline lines. >> thank you. mr. brig. >> as an operator of a distribution system, the stories are probably very similar. we have small emergencies every day, small, medium and even large, so the back-up systems, the screening, the ics structure, the spare parts, the communication, those muscles are flexed quite often. the big one is t

and then bankruptly the san francisco utilities commission put a stop to it. so i'm happy that the 3 primes are going to give us their best service. another point i want to make is when the task force was formed they worked hard to choose the best location. they were many locations prone to flooding. they're looking at a location and hopefully another location where the present asphalt plant is so the best touching facilities when we're talking about digesters this is not a joke. this is something that requires a lot of expertise. so i'm happy and i want to say very publicly and i want to thank doctor jackson especially for promoting and sticking to her guns and allowing this project to start earlier than was planned. and i want to thank those commissioners who heard our plea for spept what the community had to say. the stench we want it gone. gone, gone, gone away. the mosquitoes the contamination and the pollution. now i'm speaking as an economist we want it gone. i know this will come before the board of supervisors and their should be no problem for the bo

we worked and looked at ways that we can utilize the building for an office building.build an icon i can building that will house a lot of city departments. >> the san francisco public utilities commission has an important job. we provide clean, pristine public drinking water to 2.6 million people in the san francisco bay area from the hetch hetchy regional water system. with also generate clean renewable energy for city services like public buses, hospitals, schools, and much more. and finally, we collect and treat all the city's wastewater and stormwater making it safe enough to discharge into the san francisco bay and pacific ocean. >> in 2006 the puc was planning a record number of projects. >> the public utilities commission is a very infrastructure-rich organization. we're out there rebuilding the water system. we've budget working on power generation in the country. we've been doing sewer for the city. we're looking at a brand-new rebuild of all watt systems in san francisco and we haven't had a home that's been other than mental. >> they staff over 900 people.

today we'll talk about utilities.yst's best-performing pick is up 100% since she rated it a buy. she is here with three new plays you don't want to miss. ♪ liz: time for a look at today's market drivers. stocks ending the session in the green after comments from federal reserve members suggested that the central bank is not close to tapering its bond-buying program. the dow posted its agenth straight record close and the 19th straight day of gains. health care and consumer discretionary were today's top performing sectors. >>> following comments from federal reserve officials on the need to sustain the central bank's money printing policies or quantitative easing. yields touched a two-month intraday high before falling two basis points. >>> metals seeing red. gold fell half a percent to settle at $1377 a troy ounce while silver dropped nearly 1%. platinum is the day's worst performer dropping 1.8% to its lowest level in more than a week. david. david: why you have gold. liz: that's right. got to love gold. i like plat

the other utilities generating electricity. those are 17-1800 jobs and you are contracting their work under this proposal you are contracting their work out to shell oil. that is our objection. there is no misinformation, there is no uncertainty, no lack of clarity. this is a contract to shell energy to provide electricity. pure and simple. that is our objection. those are jobs. people want the work and we want control of that energy here in san francisco and in california as a whole. not out of state contracts to purchase electricity. the other two items we heard today again, there is no plan for a local build out. commissioner mentioned it, rate board members mentioned that. he said it just right because it's our concern as well, if this plan doesn't work and we are stuck with a contract with shell, that's work that my members do that no one else gets the do. that's our issue. and finally, again, using -- moving money around, creating, using a reserve fund as collateral which is what i heard to permit bondings capacity, it's

we represent the utilities that protect and build the resill yepbs into the infrastructure. we fill a gap in attitude which is the relationships, distant and local relationships, cross boundaries between the multi disciplines in the utilities. we are able to cross those lines in the counties and step up to state operations so everybody is operating in a common operating picture so everybody understands what's available not only in their jurisdiction, but what kind of resources we can bring to bear, short and long-term, how distant those are, what the qualifications are. we have master resource catalogs designed just like fire scope and cal fire in which we have built strike teams from our utilities, strike teams from water companies. they simply make a call and tell us we need 10, 12, 15, it's our obligation to put that together and get it to them. they are worried about the incident in their jurisdiction which they have to correct. it's our responsibility to reach bond those borders as their extension to bring in the reserves that they need to maintain that kaupblt newt of
