bosca supports the need for voluntary actions to make greater water use reductions. today bosca suggest to its 26 member agencies and their customers to consider reasonable reductions in their already very low water use, one of the lowest in california. bosca's work plan is on water conservation and as part of our strong descriptive name which the california legislature gave us 24 years ago. therefore, it is a part of our mandate and our strategy. this is important for us now as we embrace the water use to be reduced by at least 15%. this is a very difficult target for our member agencies and their customers to meet. and they haven't met it yet because they already have responsibly one of the lowest per capital use water levels at 66 gallons per day. really second only just to you. and yet all of us are striving to meet the governor's target and the requests by the puc for further reductions and bosca member agencies will continue our efforts to work with kuchtd more this is summer to achieve these savings. thank you for your leadership in this, i appreciate it. >> p

as i put together the letter that's in your packet thinking back i actually was hired at bosca three years after michael joined the puc, so worked my entire career on the water system together. you can imagine there have been times we have been on opposite sides of an issue and same side of an issue you about the words were so true, i never questioned his loyalty to the regional water system and that's an important thing. i think that's part of the critical piece of good public service. we may disagree, that's part of how we move forward. and certainly were a lot of challenging things in our time together and through the course of that together and with your leadership you made it better. and so i want to thank you for that, michael and wish you the best of luck on your retirement, and good health and good times. so, thank you. >> any other members of the public present who wish to speak? mr. moderator, do you have any callers? hands raised? >> madam secretary, we have one caller. >> go ahead, i have unmuted your line. you have two minutes. >> david pillpel again, hopefully the last
