they will not get blasted down into the delta. i am hearing things here that as a salmon person, i know just aren't correct. i hope that you would independently look into this yourself. i will not convince you today. if you have the opportunity to have a state scientist, man, that would be great. a final point i want to make. when they built the dam on the san joaquin river, they took out spring run salmon. 800,000 of them. extinct. gone forever. the difference here is that the extinction we are seeing in these tributaries is slower. but it is just as final. this group doesn't want to be responsible for extinction, i would think. as a native san franciscan, i hope you would choose the right thing here. thank you. >> president kwon: thank you. next is mr arthur feinstein. >> hello. nice nice to see you all again. i am chair of the sierra club conservation committee. i am also a resident here. i am supporting the speakers you have heard before who urge you to reject your staff's proposal. and stay neutral but certainly do not suppor

very important delta. it has continued to draw new people to the bay area and they're driving out long time residents, artisans and craftsmen. environmental protection is a strong motivator. we love where we live and want to protect it from overdevelopment and degradation. the last drought proved we can conserve water. we want the tuolumne river, the delta, the bay and salmon fisheries restored to health and resiliency. this will not be achieved by plan bay area that focuses on accommodating even more people here against the best interests of all those that live here now. we want the sfpuc to base environmental decisions on environmental science, not development calculations. i urge you to support the staff report for the bay delta plan and the proposal for the level of 45% to 65% of unimpaired flow with -- to protect fish and wildlife and ensure the health of the delta and the bay. this is much more important to bay area residents than increasing office space and inviting ever more people. thank you. >> p

but i can assure you that delta looks at all of the military pilots as a tremendous asset. what we need to understand is that that is a pipeline that will be open -- as long as i'm in this job, and for the foreseeable future at delta airlines. but it can't be the only pipeline that we have coming in. right now at delta we have 14,000 spotlighpilot, as i saidl have to hire 8,000 pilots, to be politically correct, for a generational tap-out. that's hitting age 65, mandatory retirement. we have pilots that will have to mandatorily retire. we'll have to replace 8,000 pilots over the next ten years. every -- every airline, every industry group out there runs its own study, and of course delta has our own. what we project over the next seven years, actually from 2020 to 2027 is that this generational retirement will create a need for over 80,000 pilot jobs in the u.s. and if we stay, take a snapshot at the current number of pilot starts and those who actually go forward and then move into the airlines or move into some sort of form, whether the major airlines, the regional arlts,

airlines, to have a mentor assigned within that is a delta -- with them that is a delta delta pilot who will help and create their professional experience as they move through flight instruction, going to either a charter or a regional outfit, and i'm very happy to say we also have a military avenue there with either the guard or the reserve. so at the end of a designated timeframe, currently we are stating 42 months, then that pilot would be able to come over to the delta pilot seniority list. and we think that this is going to be a tremendous program to entice the pilots out there to be able to take a look at delta airlines, certainly the airline life compared to the military life when you choose the airline that you're going to go to, you do it with the best information that you have. and typically, you're stepping into a seniority-based system. so it is one that you have to make the decision very, very clearly before you step in and we want to make sure that delta is able to answer all the needs of the prospective pilot for their entire career. i can also say that we have to wor

another one is delta diversions. it's lower quality water from an already stressed environment just don't seem like the right idea or solutions for us. those are all things that could have some discussion, but there are challenges with all of them that we'd have to deal with, and so there's nothing actively being planned on these fronts, other than conservation. >> steve, one question. on the groundwater banking with the districts, does that include -- there's been a suggestion that on the west side of the valley, that there might be some conjunctive use opportunities? >> that, i have not been aware of any discussions on the west side. there possibly could be, but not to my knowledge. >> okay. but that's -- that's one that has been brought up in some informal discussions, so it's -- that may be something -- >> be happy to look at it more. i think we're really thinking in the context of modesto and turlock having some kind of banking operation that would operate similar to water bank and new don pedro just a different

we are noticing that marine layer not quite extending beyond the delta. so it's staying put right along the coast and, yes, even extended as far as concord and livermore but as far as visibility goes, the beach at half moon bay is not bad. we are used to patchy fog at the coast. where we are seeing it is right there in petaluma. but that's about it. so that's good news as far as your drive is concern. it shouldn't be a nuisance. wind speeds now a little stronger than they were this time yesterday, around 7, 8 miles per hour, through fairfield 20 miles an hour from the southwest. it's that onshore wind again and that of course is going to lead to cooler conditions right by the water. jaclyn? >> thank you, neda. >>> speaking of the bay bridge, here's another angle -- well, this is of the bay bridge toll plaza. can't say we're looking at the bridge. but this is a look at the backup. no metering lights just yet. but we certainly got some delays. a couple of those cars in the cash lanes. we are still in the gras far as our travel times go. the backup doesn't e

i have made five films about the bay, delta and greenbelt over the last 30 years. i also made another film but that does not have to do with the water. in addition, i am a bay swimmer. i have been swimming in san francisco bay for 32 years. and i am very familiar with the bay delta system. i have been since the seventies. i am here to tell you that negotiated settlements that have been made over the past 30 years have not worked. i produced a film about the san joaquin river which had so much water to get out of it, as you no kak that sections of it, literally run dry. i have been swimming in the bay and i can tell you that the bay itself is saltier than it used to be because we get less water flowing down from the rivers. i i urge you to support the state water board's plan because it is adaptive management. it is a compromise. it is science-based. and it will work to protect the environment and the cities. i have been sitting here for several hours listening to people's say things about your plan and it almost feels like, if you say it often enough, it it will be

it has not been able to bear any fruit yet that is where we are at with the delta plan. the second item i want to talk k about is last friday. that was a good news story. i appreciated the effort of your staff to really create that celebration. more importantly to get the word out about what has been done. the number of people that have reached out to me separately because they heard about it, saw it on the news. it had been such a long time since we had all of the problems, and i think it really speaks to fortitude, leadership, persistence and strength to get that project and get that dam done. that is a significant improvement to the service area. i do applaud the skilled workers and your leadership. lastly, if i could have the slides. just to continue my tracking of water use and it also does relate to the discussions we have been having about the delta plan. this is water use through july 2018 as reported to the state board. this is total, not just purchases. for july 17% less than the pre-drought use. you continue to see the gap between the top blue line 2013 and th

i urge you to realize there are many people in the delta plan. it is a compromise. they listen to every side of the story and they listen to all scientists on every side of the point. they thought their method was the best. i urge you to realize that they have put a lot of energy and listening and i want to thank you guys for having the opportunity to listen to us and build into the delta water plan and make your own decision. it is a compromise at some people think it is a lose lose and some people think it is a win-win. not any side. i. i think that if you vote, the state water board, he will not have -- i think it has become like blood water. people want it and it is -- everyone has their own interest and i would suggest it is a compromise. please look into it. thank you. >> president kwon: thank you. dave, welcome. >> thank you. my name is dave warner. thank you for serving on the commission and thank you for having this topic on the agenda. the first one on the back story, i would say there is one major point and a minor point. if there is anything doubtful, pe
