title 2 for carriers, title 3 for wireless providers. title 6 for cable providers. that model cannot last forever. you run into tricky situations. the f.c.c. is considering whether or not certainly over the top video providers should be classified as multichanneled video programming distributors basically the equivalent of a cable company or an i.t.t. that has implications. it doesn't fit that well into statchtri language, and really -- wen eventually we'll have to say, you know what? because of convergence and the fact that all these systems are run over i.p. networks eventually we'll have to come up with a mooerman rational framework that deals with that convergence. i am never one to say that can be done quickly. to credit congress over the last year or so has issued a series of papers about potential ways to rewrite the communications act. i think we have gotten a lot of good input. maybe some day eventually we'll deal with that. >> fred upton said he would like to see that rewrite happen. >> oh, yeah. >> do you think we'll see that happening in 2015? >> i think

provide training to a crew of volunteers or what they call neighbors. these are neighbors going out to help neighbors. they will also be doing a survey of at least 75 people in the neighbor to determine service needs. there is going to be a primary paid position. what i really think is outstanding about this program is they are off to a really good start and they also have an advisory group which ms. hope will be providing leadership there and helping with outreach policy and fund raising issues. i had an opportunity to visit their always active program and i have to say i was thoroughly impressed by the level of participation and just the enthusiasm the exuberance of the participants in that particular program and about what it means to them to have this type of a program. >>thank you. i want to make sure i understand, maria. this is a new program, but it is being -- the agency is not a new agency to the city it is an a jep say we have funded in the past, correct? >>this is something that we have been funding on a very minimal level to get it started a

we have provided these. we provided -- >> right. i'm trying to get an idea of in the entire universe of documents that we have yet to receive as mr. gowdy said, we are looking for all, what portion of that do the 40,000 -- because the 40000 is a lot of documents. so what -- where does that fit into the universe? >> it's 40000 pages of documents. i said 40,000 documents. i meant to say 40,000 pages of documents. that is the significant amount. that is what we have found. that is what we have searched for, and that is what we have found. >> but you don't really know at this moment where that is. and i don't want to get hung up on that. i really want to spend the time talking about the processes that you're using to gain access. so let's start with are you using a centralized location to ensure that you're properly capturing all of the documents or is it mined out to different bureaus? >> i appreciate the question. thank you. at the state department, we do not have a single person responsible for document requests. when we have a docum

>> i actually think that we provide a tremendous center t in the from -- provide tremendous certainty in the final rule. i think we made very clear that beneficiary's are not subject to the rule to the existing preventative protections that remain. coupled with other actions that we have taken, it will increase use of beneficial use. >> how do you deal with that -- on page 18, it says this rule defers -- defers, postponed's -- a final determination until additional information is available. i just wonder how -- that is like the door is wide open. some time, someone is going to make another determination that is going to be based on other information. i don't agree with you that there is certainty at all in this decision. i think it was well intended. it helps us resolve the differences between c and d, but it still the give us a view of tomorrow. if i am going to move the ball down the field, i have to find at how are we going to shut down the door. >> in my opinion, i don't think we left the door wide open. we have been very clear. between the two proposals that we had for public com

it provides only a glimpse. the majority of events are handled at the state or local level and do not warrant federal assistance. in 2013 there 2013 there were 205 gubernatorial declarations in over 13,000 events. in addition local and tribal governments responded to nearly 31,000. without a strong emergency management system at the state, local, and tribal levels many of the nearly 50,000 would falter or require federal support. that federal support comes in the form of public assistance which amounts to half of the total funds allocated to the disaster relief fund. in order to assure the most effective use of those funds and in response to numerous government audits last year fema initiated an internal study of its this program. in the coming weeks the agency we will share data with the desired goal of an agreed-upon redesigned pa program that meets the needs of all stakeholders. a redesigned program will also assist in reducing and appropriately allocating those administrative costs. the report highlights the

is doing and then asking them provider,, and the provider should be absolutely comfortable saying why the data is in there and what it says. we know as we look forward that their are things that will need to be approved. everyone has to take the vested interests that they have been looking at the data. that way the consumer gets to no what is occurring to make these conversations occur more beneficial. we understand this is a good and positive thing. now the data is out there. there. we went from having suspicion to having actual data. and and this is as of december 19 refreshing 2014 the magnitude of what is going on, the financial transactions the total value published as of september 19 was $3.7 $3.7 billion. the number of records individual transactions occurring over 4.4 million transactions which involved individual records. that what that means more can be done with the data, the research that you can go into and find out what is going on is turned over to the research community. how that then informs public policy will depend upon the research that is done but is a subject for

they can be child care providers so our clients can go out and work. >> we found more and more women of child bearing age come down with cancer and they have kids and the kids were having a horrible time and parents were having a horrible time. how do parents tell their kids they may not be here? what we do is provide a place and the material and support and then they figure out their own truth, what it means to them. i see the behavior change in front of my eyes. maybe they have never been able to go out of boundaries, their lives have been so rigid to sort of expressing that makes tremendous changes. because we did what we did, it is now sort of a nationwide model. >> i think you would be surprised if you come to these clinics. many of them i think would be your neighbors if you knew that. often times we just don't discuss that. we treat husband and wife and they bring in their kids or we treat the grandparents and then the next generation. there are people who come in who need treatment for their heart disease or for their diabetes or their high blood pressure or their cholesterol

it provides $47. billion to fund the agencies -- $47.8 billion to fund agencies through the fiscal year 2018. it includes $7 billion for emergency disaster relief to assist those suffering the effects of severe winter snowstorms that have hit the northern united states, wildfires that have ravaged the west, floods, tornadoes and other natural disasters. the bill also provides $213 million for the overseas contingency operations of the coast guard. as they continue to play a vie toll role in the -- vital role in the support of our military abroad. our deliberations on this bill, the committee took very seriously the crisis that has unfolded on our southwestern border, as we experienced a surge of unaccompanied minors, pry aim -- primarily from central american countries of honduras, guatemala and el salvador. the bill also allows certain fema grants to be used to reimburse state and local governments for the excessive costs associated with humanely detaining and processing these unaccompanied minors. i

provide the port security so our next steps are to seek our program with the mo a and that includes the south beach as a special facility and once that is done the agreement will in the be effective until the approval bodies have approved and the ocii commission and the oversight board we'll need a currents e concurrence we'll transfer it will not become effective until we transfer the loans and the subsidized agreement letter is done so we have the maintenance the $300000 for the park security with that, i'm here as is mr. morales and levenson and mr. brown to answer any of your questions. >> thank you any public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed commissioners commissioner ho. >> yes first of all i want to commend this is a great report it must have been about a and a half maybe it started it caused quite i guess an uproar among the attended as far as the changes we had to go through a lot of changes first of all congratulations to the staff from monique on down to elaine who all worked on it be we're pleased to see we're operating in the black and after debt

we provide tennis lessons for four other programs in the community. we provide zumba. we provide the space for [indiscernible] and people who want to have birthday parties and other things in the space. i have here, in 2006, there was a homicide in the gym so safety is a real issue and we want to do things around the lighting and what is going on there. i have other things to share with you about how we have open the space for arbor day. we do an annual backpack that gives out more than 1200 backpacks. we did a christmas event where we had over 300 people from the community come in. for me, i have a hard time understanding why there would be debate over putting lights and air-conditioning in the space. the people are always asking us about turning on the heat. the system that was put in there, there is no control so it is freezing in there. we are in transition with the preschool but they had days they had to close down because there are rules about the temperature inside the building and we had no control over it. i did hear the representative from [indiscernible] age

to san francisco. >> thank you. >> could provide to the region, could provide beyond the region. >> thank you for that clarity. >> that's so that's an example. >> so if this report is with your feedback if the report is solid what then? what's the next step? because that's what we're ready to do, is the next step. >> so i understand the next step to be that our commissions are jointly be presented the report's findings. at the staff level i am looking forward to hearing the responses of my commission from what they learned from the enernex report and the dialogue they can have you at the public setting in the joint meeting. i think that is an opportunity for us at the staff level to get additional guidance what work we should be performing to be responsible to our commissioner's needs so that's whaooking for at the staff level as a next step. i do want to say i believe we're among the first of the commenters on the prior draft providing feedback to mr. fried on the 20th of november and in advance of the commitment for your meeting in early december for your meeting today, and i expe

hospital and those outpatient clinics provide or at least intended to provide routine care. so here's the problem today. the law says if you live more than 40 miles from a v.a. stilt then the v.a. must provide the services at home if you choose. well the department of veterans' affairs is defining facility as any facility, including the hospital or the outpatient clinic. that doesn't seem too troublesome to me until you take it the next step, which is even if the v.a. hospital or the outpatient clinic doesn't provide the service that the veteran needs they still consider it a facility within 40 miles. so in my hometown where i grew up, we have had an ongoing dialogue with one of our honored veterans. he needs a colonoscopy. well my hometown is nearly 300 miles, 250 miles to the v.a. hospital in wichita. there is an outpatient clinic, a cboc in hayes 25 miles a way but guess what? the outpatient clinic in hayes doesn't provide the service of colonoscopies. so one would think the veteran in my hometown could go to the local physician or the local hospital have the colonoscopy

provided to lafco staff on november 20. we will -- because we received the draft actually just the afternoon before the meeting we didn't comment on this most recent revised version. we're going through that process now at the staff level reading the report and understanding how it has responded to the comments we have given. and i think it's getting better. it's moving in the right direction. we're looking at the the request of the general manager clktding with your staff to put together a summary, sort of pro and con of what differences remain. mr. mr. fried mentioned a couple of examples that i could use where we might have issues to work on. for example our request to be more specific as to what was local, what was regional, and what was state wide. we still have concerns about that. the local hire ordinance included a 70-mile radius for water system improvement projects for example which made sense because the work performed was serving a service territory that is broader than san francisco. the assets are located outs

that was one of the impetus was on how to provide that and activities for the seniors. so we did. it took them a little over a year-and-a-half to get everything together so i wanted to show you some brief slide shows that they had shared with us and a little bit of highlights of what happened during the visit. so this is the american samoa and their mission is to provide the best services with the utmost respect in order to be perpetuate and maximize the happiness and well being of american samoan senior citizens. this is -- you probably can't see the organizational chart here but i thought it was very interesting because their organization's very different. on the very top is the governor for the american samoan government and right below that is their director and we met with him. they were the administrators and they wanted to see how it happens because there was a lot of resistance from the seniors who were very vocal. they didn't want to change the food voucher program because they were used to that for over 20 years. anyway, in may, 2014, they had a procurement meeting with
