catch up but spelling the last name despite the had your clan pleasures or measures from the san francisco the port of san francisco couldn't catch up in the game of containertion and oakland became the port in the region so your board ended up having to play a different game and you've focused open transforming a waterfront configured for an obsolete shipping technology into a vibrate commercial entertainment district and i can take great pride you've succeeded so admiringly but if the port commissioners in 114 had known that the facilities they were this or building would have a lifespan of 50 years don't i think they would have made different capital investments sitting here today, the future will bring changes to the san francisco waterfront that will be more profound than the changes by containertion sea level will alter the face of san francisco over the next century. the sea level rise has been described as being a slow moving emergency or being attacked by a tortoise but you you know the emergency a coming and the attack is starting you're in a much better position to prepare for the disast

commissioners originally the grand jury had a report on sea level rise, and soon after that the san francisco port commission had a hearing and i would strongly advise this commission to prioritize a hearing on this matter, sea level rise, because superficially we talk about chamber of commerce and as you know million. >> climate change and you know millions met in new york and the staff has to be ahead of the game when it comes to anything that can adversely impact our clean drinking water with a blueprint -- god bless you. so the other thing is we're interested in infrastructure and we see the infrastructure that has been adversely impacted in the embarcadero area that all will go away just like that. we will get a taste of it soon with a high tides of the el nino. you will see it. in fact we're already seeing it now. when it comes to our water treatment plants we know about this. we don't shout on top of the roof but we know about it. there are many occasions our treatment plants have been compromised because of the salt water. we are lucky we have a state senator. we have a former general mana

ports. and the change that happened hereafter or here with the containertion happened her and oakland made the change and staelt a lot like san francisco'sas a port you've got restaurant and baseball stadiums and retail a lot of things and oakland went the other way like los angeles and seattle but san francisco is a unique port because it can adapt to so many things it's a portfolio you've got to have more than one stock in our investment you've got to have a lot of things in our portfolio that's common sense i know that but i appreciate that and you know what your lawmakers need to hear that i spent time in d.c. and when i came back from anarch can and my colleagues from oregon i told them what was going on they've been here to the port i've tried to explain to them and they said we're the younger senator we're in our 50s the older guys in their 90s; right? we're a new generation of young senators we're trying to have this debate and the president ran on that issue he's got showing 80 so many other problems because of the what's going on in the word this is a serious issue i wish nancy pelosi was here and senator feinstein and boxers t

these beautiful buildings and that is what it was, it was going in and out of these ports and at that time, san francisco was the largest port on the west coast and now it is in the la long beam but i think that what we have we don't have to worry about the port, because mostly in the container business, but what we thrive in and like i said many time, what we do best is, cruise ships, and (inaudible) let's do it well, along with the real estate and the rest of the portfolio, and we have it like a stock if one thing is up and one is down that gives us an opportunity and i think that commissioner you said about the sea over rise and i have legal i enjoyed that presentation that we had when john came to the last condition to talk about the sea level rise but i think that we can work that into the pilot program because i want to know what is a perfect fit for the port of san francisco because there is no report like ours, and we got something that fits us. and what kind of unique, and in the way that we do things and i think that we can find something that incorporates what we want to do. and it is possible
