sb 43 also directed the california puc to issue a decision by july 1st. so early this summer we should see some decision from the public utilities commission of california that tells us what the shape of this green tariff program will be and available to pg&e customers here in san francisco. thank you. >> thank you, i don't quite understand how the green tariff program works with what you described as the community renewables program. >> to propose programs that would allow for community renewables. it's very much mimicking a program that is already underway in southern california that was sponsored by san diego gas and electric company. pg&e did not include that kind of an offering in their initial application to the california puc. a number of parties, including ourselves, suggested that there should be such a component to their program. it wasn't until sb 43 went through the legislative process and was adopted that pg&e then in compliance filed a proposal to incorporate a community renewables piece into their green tariff offering. so it would allow cus

and so, we have been my staff and i have been actively engaged at the california puc to make sure that is a program that works well within san francisco and it has the opportunities for the local development of renewables as well. and so it is, it is a dual path, the community choice aggregate option and the green tariff option. thank you. commissioner wald had a question but cal if i could just mention because i was at the and it might have been at the environment commission where you mentioned the statistic about roof top could get us 7 percent and i don't know if you get the boughts of insomnia and i wanted to figure that out and so i took a ruler and i kind of tried to figure out is that really right? it is only 7 percent of the entire city and so i went recently and found a study called roof top revolution and changing everything with the cost effective local solar and institute for the local self-reliance from march of 2012 and quote from the law and the golden gate law school that estimates 378 mega watts of roof top solar, which a non-peak demand is 6 to 700 so that is about 50

process with staff as well as the public so in general we do believe the puc rates in process as well as final rates do adhere to california state law a critical point to deliver and agree with the overall needs to pay for not only the inflationary o and m costs but we're recommending that the tier break for the water system for the single family has increased from 3 ccf the 748 gallons per unit in alignment with the customer usage patterns unique to the city and we're recommending on the wastewater side a single unit cost per water discharge to the system we're recommending an increase or slight modification to the capacity charge in alignment with your costs but also the capacity requirements of newcomers coming to the system and also recommending that you update your miscellaneous charges with respect to providing services to ongoing customers whether meters etc. with that i'd like to open up to any questions that you may have. >> commissioner torres. >> when you say that this city is unique with respect to water. >> san san francisco has the lowest consumption in the country. >> can you go back to the slide? >> the rec

programs therefore resolved strongly urging the puc commission policy expenditures and also on the cap program as you know the big horn desert california supreme court ruled in 206 that this type of program is illegal the city needs to ask the board of supervisors you do to fund these programs if you find that low income water rate payers need help it should not be put on the rest of the rate pay ers thank you. >> thank you very much for being here lorraine. >> the next card and this is the last card i have -- unless -- is there any mail? is joan -- this is good. joan girardo is that right? >> hi joan good afternoon. >> thank you for the venue i wanted to say when we talk about an average bill it's a useless tool to understand your residential customer classes because the predominant occupancy of single family resident i want to say that pennies per gallon is also kind of useless to understand in effect and i took my neighbors's household five people measured by 1 meter to parents and 3 teenage kids and i gave them 50 gallons a day per person the lowest consumption rate in the state of california which we have achieved in san francisco

service personnel responded to this fire, we just as a puc had over 300 people involved in the response. and it was the third largest wildfire in california, in the largest wildfire that yosimete has experienced. it is a little bit hard to see here, but the fire just expanded and progressed incredibly quickly. this is the first four days of the fire. so, the yellow you can see best is the second day, there is actually a smaller green and by thursday, we were at that red perimeter and so it was just really out of control situation, that we all needed to really respond to quite quickly. and so, what has happened with water during the fire, where we are happy to say that we didn't have any negative effects actually on our ability to deliver quality water to our customers, both in san francisco and in the bay area. we never had any issue with strabitiy and we were happy about that and however when the fire started we did put the plans in place and that included moving as much water from our source, up country down to the local storage reservoirs and we were able to do that fairly quickly, what that meant is that we had 3 to 4 months of reserv
