the port contracted, in essence, with bae to do this work. bae performed admirably. got it in and got it done days before the first ship came in and connected, which was matthew perry. the matthew perry is still in dry dock there. it's been -- didn't get my update in terms of power usage, but it's been hundreds of thousands of kilowatt hours, the equivalent of a couple hundred household use of electricity. it's been a massive amount of power. this came about, in part -- in large part, due to the fact we had previously constructed shore side power at pier 27. and i wanted to just touch on that for a moment because with the exception of commissioner brandon, this port commission hasn't been here during that project. that started way back in 2006 when we applied for our grant, which came through from the air district in 2007. we subsequently applied for and received additional grant funding which resulted in a project with a budget of 5.2 million, where we had $4.2 million in grant funding. so, we got a $5 million project for $1 million out of pocket. we got that done o

a good portion of that is union labor that's employed directly by bae. they also have subcontractors come in for specialized work. the white numbers on the columns represent the number of union workers showing up every day for each one of these jobs. so, we're looking at anywhere from 130 to 300 workers showing up every day because she's ships have come into the dry dock for work. and, so, basically we've invested, we've partnered with bae and both invested and we've created more jobs, more good union jobs here at the port of san francisco coming out of our maritime business. we've also increased port revenues through that. and equally importantly, we've cleaned up the ports there in the process. so, it's been a win all the way around, a three-way win. and with that, i'll take questions. >> [inaudible]. >> just a couple very quick, james wright. this is unique. working with the port of san francisco, i've been here five years now. i can't believe that. i've been here five years now. and working with the port of san francisco, the relationship that the sh

we could use bae our own tenant to do that. up next the dry dock, they are a sophisticated and dynamite ship repair operation, demolition is historic for them. the economics don't work out quite well. so, we are looking at that option. the third -- fourth, the fifth option, the tbd mark there, it's still on the table where we, through the mayor and part of the project, asked the navy rather to expend all of its funds in the most productive way they can. and at the end put it in a form can easily be returned to us and we go out to bid. these other options here top wise 80 aepre, nav sea, the navy would start to fund them before they're out of the $3 million. we would be forced to go to a sole source contracting vehicle for those. so, i didn't mean to get too much into the wave there. it gets complicated in phase ii and 3. that is the the subject of the resolution that is before you. so, the purpose of the m-o-u is my favorite shout out, by the way, just a side-view. the m-o-u nav sea and titan salvage dry dock number one to begi
