and sits about water to the san joaquin delta. farmers on the east side of the san joaquin between fresno and current county and between tracy and urban southern california and northern costa are all critically dependent on the delta for water. if because of an earthquake, used to call it a 200 year storm, but might be a hundred year storm, last one is the 1860s, or a sea level rise, if the delta fails, the disaster would be comparable to superstorm sandy or hurricane sandy, loss of jobs. i'll do whatever i can to make sure that doesn't happen. my proposed plan is two tunnels 30 miles long and 40 feet wide designed to improve the ecology of the delta with almost 100 square miles of habitat restoration. that's big, but so is the problem. lasted a short while and cost $15 billion, about the same as this project. this will serve californians for hundreds of years. when you think about california's future, no long- term liability presents as greater danger to our well being as the build-up of carbon dioxide and others in the atmosphere

kumbiya on the prifral tunnel as it's now called, a $14 billion project to move water around the san joaquin delta. and finally overcoming the concerns of teacher unions and suburban democratic legislators in his supplemental funding proposal to provide extra state funding for poor performing schools in areas where english is a second language and poverty an bounds. >> speak of kumbiya, brown has a supermajority in the assembly and the senate. will the democrats feel compelled to do what he wants to do? >> yeah, for the most part, yeah. okay. that will said, two major ob obstacles remain. the first would be the legislature's tendency to save less and spend more. we know about that, particularly with social welfare programs that have been decimated over the past few years to balance the budget. the second challenge will come from powerful interest groups. environmentalists, agribusiness, teacher associations, business organizations to name a few who see the governor's proposals as harmful to their own interests. so simply put, yeah, today's address sure, it was the governor's first step toward rest

affordable care act and forthing ahead with twin tunnels to move water north to south through the san joaquin delta. >> two years ago they're writing our obituary. it didn't happen. california is back and we're on the move. >> some republicans are scratching their heads. the governor congrad rated lawmakers if for cutting the budget but this year's projects are pricey. >> that is a guy ramping up the budget. >> advocates for the poor also criticized the governor. sabrina experienced $15 billions cuts that state made to the safety net since 2008 but there are no plans to help her, or others, this year. >> makes me feel like they don't want us. like they're leaving us out to where it's only about wealthy people. like they don't care about the poor people. >> biggest applause came when the governor talked about keeping college affordable. >> tuition increases are not the answer. i'm not going let the stud yints in california become financiers of our colleges and universities. >> you only want to pay and get our degree, just move on. >> the governor announced plans to take a trip to china this year. >>

water central to the life of our state is water and one sixth of that water flows through the san joaquin delta. silicon valley, the livermore valley, farmers on the east side of the san joaquin valley between fresno and kern county and farmers on the west side between tracy and los banos, urban southern california and northern contra costa, all are critically dependent on the delta for water. if because of an earthquake, a hundred year storm or sea level rise, the delta fails, the disaster would be comparable to hurricane katrina or superstorm sandy -- losses of at least $100 billion and 40,000 jobs. i am going to do whatever i can to make sure that does not happen. my proposed plan is two tunnels 30 miles long and 40 feet wide, designed to improve the ecology of the delta, with almost 100 square miles of habitat restoration. yes, that is big but so is the problem. the london olympics lasted a short while and cost $14 billion, about the same cost as this project. but this project will serve california for hundreds of years. think about california'sinwhene future, no long term liability present

san francisco. and the delta tunnel, the idea of taking water from the san joaquin putting it under the delta with a pair of 30-mile- long tunnels. that is still on the table, as well. so that's the state of the state. that's also the state of jerry brown's hopeful legacy. >> high-speed rail up that mountain. phil matier, thank you. >>> all the focus is on the 49ers but there is another big sports story. the san jose sharks are back on home ice tonight for the first time since last april. cbs 5 reporter mark sayre says this is not just great news for sharks fans. mark. >> reporter: well, brian, it's a big night for the sharks. it's a big night for businesses in san jose. the sharks coming into their home opener winning two on the road. they are hoping to do the same again here tonight and local businesses, they are just thrilled that hockey is back. the nhl season was supposed to begin more than three months ago on october 11th. and while fans may have missed hockey, restaurant workers like eric flores say they have missed the booming business that the sharks bring to downtown san jose. >> it helps

asking the state to consider a smaller alternative to a planned tunnel for the sacramento, san joaquin river delta tunnel would actually result in more water for cities and farms. they also say it would with better for the environment and it would cost the state less. >>> a live look from our roof cam this morning. just a gorgeous looking day outside stepping out maybe not feeling as good. still, freezing in some areas. but temperatures now slowly turning around and for the afternoon we'll be below average. 36-degrees in napa. 34 in fairfield. these areas starting out at freezing so now a tiny bump there. still cold. 41 in novato. mid 40s around the bay. san francisco reporting mid 40s as well as oakland. 31 defrees in calistoga. into the east bay temperatures chilly this morning in walnut creek 35 for you. 38-degrees in san ramon. the winds generally light right now. i do expect they will pick up in the afternoon where they are already gusty along the coastline this morning. half-moon bay reporting winds about 25 miles an hour. and even though half-moon bay reads 48 degrees it feels more like 40

san joaquin valley will have it creep back in especially through the delta. a few 60s are popping up and that helps oakland and 61 and antioch 55, livermore 53, morgan hill gill ray, nice coast and bay and patchy fog will continue into the weekend, not much of a change. here is more. >>> a woman crashed her suv into a swimming pool. hers set police said -- merced gwen went into a pool and a person helped to pull the suv to the edge of the pool and rescued the driver. >>> a new clue is being released to the public in hopes of tracking it down. >> the pain was real, the grieve was real and the affection was real. >> what is not real is a made up girlfriend. a connection at notre dame. look at you guys with your fancy-schmancy u-verse high speed internet. you know, in my day you couldn't just start streaming six ways to sunday. you'd get knocked off. and sometimes, it took a minute to download a song. that's sixty seconds, for crying out loud. we know how long a minute is! sitting, waiting for an album to download. i still have back problems. you're only 14 and

san joaquin valley. >> this area is the best place in the world to grow herbs. this area, from the delta to, probably 40 or 50 miles south of here, you get the combination of warm temperatures and then the nice delta breeze in the evening to cool things down. so, it is absolutely the best place in the world to grow herbs. >> harvesting at the first sign of daylight is just part of everyday life here, as the fresh basil is plucked from the ground, shippeto the nearby processing facility where, during the busy season, almost 100 tons of basil are trucked in here daily. >> this is basil that was harvested this morning when we were out in the field. we brought it to the factory. we've unloaded it. and now we're washibg it. >> here, the basil is cleaned, flash-frozen at 40 degrees below zero. brr! and then the stems are removed and sold to local dairies for feed. >> so, what we've done now is we've frozen the product, and then through a proprietary process, we've separated the leaf from the stem. so, what we have now is a free-flowing product that you'd use just like fresh, except it has all
