was for january 1, 2012, to december 31, 2013, so where cmd looks at the city fiscal period, san francisco mta reported for a two year duration. anyway, they reported an overall lbe award of 22% against roughly 152 million that was awarded and approximately 33.6 going to lbes. we have not yet been successful in looking at figures from the mayor's office of housing and community development. we feel that is probably the most comparable in terms of the types of projects that are in relations to ocii. again, the summary here is that it is difficult to draw a comparison. i have to say that the ocii performance of 35%, while below the 50%, is pretty satisfactory overall. i want to give you some statistics on a project by project area basis. what's shown on the screen now is the breakdown of sbe percentages by region or by area. so for bay view hunters point, those really consist of low income housing. the professional services had a sbe rate of 59%. construction at roughly 59%. ly 49%. so overall about 50% in the area. and the hunters point shipyard, candle stick point, the professional services is
