so i am here as a stakeholder.'ve been involved for the last five years, as i mentioned, and i'm hoping we can approve this project today. thank you. >> thank you. >> morning. i have a letter that i will read into the record. it was cowritten by myself and the c.e.o. and president appear 39. before i do so, i want to thank elaine and your staff for addressing our issues since the june 12th mission -- meeting and meeting vigourously with us to get it done before today. thank you. dear elaine, we are writing to express our support to approve the lease between the port and the national park service for the pier 39 embarkation site to alcatraz island. we previously expressed concern about the negative impact of the park cruises will have on the local baker's market. we now understand there is a tentative agreement between the port and the m.p.s. to limit the park cruises during the first five years of the lease. during the initial five year term, we understand that the park cruises will be capped at a level that curren

and what the global stakeholders wanted. with a risk-based approach to make thank you for all your thoughts. we appreciate it. >> thank you to the witnesses. i had the opportunity to visit some nation in southeast asia. the same week they were considering legislation and what that would mean for vietnam. when you talk to businesses today talk about the need of the democratic values and ideas? >> absolutely. there are various forms to push that agenda more aggressively. for both with our negotiations nafta should be part of that to undermine those data flows that should be included there are also other forms to be actively engaged with the forum on privacy and also i think taking another look and we need to make sure that the american government is fully engaged in what do they intend to do with those policies? >> i'm not sure what they have in mind but that could go to another person on the panel what is china and vietnam? >> various reasons countries have done it is a realistic concern we have to do more of these bilateral

a whole range of stakeholders to advance an integrated us policy. second, cyber internet issues are being debated in virtually every country and every regional organization i believe we've reached a point where the issues discussed in these forums will have a major impact on the future of the internet and cyberspace. accordingly and us vision of cyberspace including us interests requires precedented us international engagement . among the many policy challenges are by repressed regimes to replace internet governance with one that is driven by government only multilateral on or multiple contracts to obtain a free flow of information, close by, and others online freedom economic attacks, mandatory a localization requirements via or practical and are often used oppressive governments to monitor and control their, countries and multilateral on exacting or considering regulatory policy or legal regimes during some aspect of cyberspace including online privacy, cyber security and market access that conflicts with us values or risks reading regimes to frag

stakeholders had and the eu cybersecurity act they've taken. one i think i would take caution, making sure it's not a conflicting regime with what's being done in the eu, but at the same time show u.s. leadership, a lot of countries are thinking about this, i think is po-- singapore looking at regulation. i know dhs and commerce put out principles on this about a year and a half ago. but i think this kind of voluntary regime with industry has a lot of merit. >> do any of you agree that a voluntary regime could work in the united states using that kind of a framework? yes, mr. secretary. >> i agree with that and something i suggested earlier might also be relevant here, which is to take the safety aspect using to counter technologies and apply that as well. because your critics economic incentive to get security since the safety act caps liabilities. i think that would be worthwhile. >> thank you. >> i was just going to add and reiterate chris painter's point, which is interoperability is a dething here. one concern, if there's a voluntary regim

we have a stakeholder survey that with over 350 surveys have been completed. we have a monthly e newsletter, and i'm all assuming that you all see it on a regular basis, and monthly website regular updates. again our first meeting was on june 21. we had this meeting filled with people and boards? we presented the program framework that i talked about today, as well as the seismic and flood hazard risk, and how is it we're going to be making decisions in this project over time. and i'm going to pass it back to steven for the important finance and legislative updates. >> thank you, lindy. the -- the engineer happy hour is next tuesday. it's going to be a very exciting event. so how are we going to pay for all this. our overall goal is this. you previously heard from brian strong, the city's chiefri sill yens officer about the recommendations from the seawall working group which laid the groundwork for the strategy. initial citywide investment not only gets the critical improvements moving quickly but shows our state and federal partners that the city is both com

the draft bill has received broad support from the conservation stakeholder groups alike. over 100 organizations have already pretended the committee to express their support on this effort to look forward to working with members of the committee and the larger community to find a bipartisan pathway to the meaningful modernization of the act is on the western governors association recommendations and now turn to the ranking member carper for his statements. >> welcome and thank you for your leadership in wyoming and among the other nation. as a recovering governor i recognize the challenging role that speaks to implementing the federal law. the endangered species act one of the most popular protection statutes is one example of such a law. also pushing the ability to come together with stakeholders and solve these issues on the ground and governor, i understand from the colleagues bipartisan three-year process to the governors nation to discuss the improvements to the endangered species act and i commend you for doing so. i very much look forward to hearing from you and th

organizations and present to them we have done over 60 stakeholder meetings during the design phase and photos here are a couple examples, the one on the left is a meeting we did at the russian american community services senior center conducted in both russian and english and the one at the right is at the saint francis square cooperative. we also have two major rounds of public events this summer. the first ones were in june and they were open houses. the purpose of those events was to share the draft final design of the project for input. and we wanted to be consulting with the public. after receiving the feedback at those events as well as through other outreach tactics we followed we did choose to make a few refinements to be responsive to what we heard in the community and we had events what we called project showcases earlier this month, the purpose was to inform the public about the changes that we made based on input as well as to display the staff recommended design that you now have before you today. overall those events were both well attended and well received. we heard

we had visitors, local groups, stakeholders shared what they most like about the wharf, which includes the waterfront location, its walkability and people watching, the wonderful variety seafoods, restaurant, attractions, particularcally crab and chowder calls. it is a working waterfront with strong ties to the fishing industry. issues that they collected they feel the district should address are the wharf's lack of established night life, poor lighting in places and lack sufficient public rest rooms and seating areas. although the intensity of the crowds is what they enjoy the most, they also highlighted that as something that makes it difficult for the wharf to over come as the labelling of a tourist trap. finally, the report looked at retail opportunities and challenging. one of the district's biggest retail challenges includes an abundance of specialty retail. [inaudible] >> -- particularly in the off season, however in many locations outside the north paths of travel at the wharf and even with 16.4 million visitors a year, many retailers have learned that foot traffic on the sidew

institute of peace, with stakeholders around d.c. and the world, focusing on how we evaluate and learn from effective public policy and dust diplomacy and -- public diplomacy and broadcasting efforts. that produced a report called "optimizing engagement," available on the commission website. it does an interesting thing. it audits all the different metrics that 26 different governments are using to assess the effectiveness of public diplomacy programs. it does 17 different case studies of what effectiveness looks like in countries like denmark, australia, austria. really interesting stuff. part of my job is to take what has been learned from that report and process and apply it to a slightly different environment, the bbg, a public diplomacy institution with a specific mandate, specific set of tools to achieve that. they work alongside each other. not necessarily the case everything is applicable to the bbg. we had the opportunity, myself and members of the research team had the opportunity to go to a bbc research retreat last week,

i'm grateful for all of the guidance and insight that many stakeholders have provided and i invite others who are interested to do the same. let me pause for a moment to discuss integrity, a word frequently used in the sports betting debate but often left undefined. in the context of sports, integrity is used to describe events that are recognized as honest and genuine competition. there is a reason the predetermined outcomes in professional wrestling attract a small fraction of the following enjoyed by baseball, football, basketball, and other sports. the integrity of sport, the sense that the game is a real competition free from outside influence is what attracts fans and keeps them coming back. integrity can be compromised in various ways. take, for example, the doping scandals in cycling that took down lance armstrong and led fans to question whether racers were won by the best athlete or the rider on the best drug regiment. but there's no greater threat to sports integrity than match fixing. and there is no question that a big payoff in the sports betting market is the leading reason

and also mailed out in flyers to community groups and stakeholders. and ahead of this hearing, the project team emailed stakeholders with flyers in english and chinese. the vast majority of the feedback we have gotten on the project is positive. here is a cross section of alemany boulevard existing and proposed. it may be hard to see right now. basically, we are just converting the curb lane in each direction into a bike lane with a buffer that would have safe-hit posts with it in the corridor to separate bicyclists from traffic. at the most complex part of the project is the alemany boulevard, bayshore boulevard project where i mentioned we will add this path. d.p.w. crews will construct that. and it just goes directly from the protected bike lane on eastbound, northbound alemany to the southwest crosswalk at the intersection, so cyclists can use that crosswalk and then access. there's two green boxes to navigate that intersection which has bike lanes on most of the legs. this is the cross sections for san bruno avenue. this change is pretty simple.

this includes stakeholders in the fisherman's wharf and pier 39 area, troy and several others up there who had told us early on and told us repeatedly that their needs are slightly different than the rest of the corridor which is partly based on the design of the embarcadero in this area, and that a more focused traffic study and look at access to -- was needed, so this led to the northern terminus of the enhancement project stopping at north point, allowing for a separate traffic study that's currently being scoped. this will include ongoing sfmta coordination with the port, jefferson phase two, as well as the ad hoc working group of shake holders to guide in that -- assist in that shepherding and guide next steps. these next couple slides are relatively technical and paps are useful more as a reference for any q&a, but a couple of things i'd like to point out, there's a lot of variation in the two way bike way design, depending on the adjacent uses, but it generally requires about 16 feet of space. in almost all cases, block by block, this requires moving kwus curbs or light any obje

there are multiple users and stakeholders and that is my job. we like what you are doing there and we also know that the olympics yours is going to be the training center and we are very highly excited about that, and so i will be glad to be consistent with my vote an on the marina and approve this resolution. >> it's been moved can i have a second. >> second. >> president tsen: all in favor say aye, any noes, the ayes have it. next item. >> clerk: item 13. >> president tsen: any objections. next item. >> clerk: that is adjourn. >> president tsen: any questions? thanks for coming. >> when i open up the paper every day i'm just amazed at how many different environmental issues keep popping up. when i think about the planet i want to leave for my children and other generation, i think of what contribution i can make on a personal level to the environment. ♪ clean power sf is san francisco's key way of fighting climate change by renewable energy and offering it to san francisco customers. i'm from the san francisco public utilities commission. the

and i've also said before that on the 10.1 consent calendar, the section on stakeholder input should be included there and should indicate that for each of the proposals whether there was support or opposition or no comment, or at least those significant proposals where there was opposition. that should be noted. all of the other calendar items seem to include some discussion of stakeholder input but the 10.1 and 10.2 calendar items do not. those are the changes that i would like to see. >> thank you, mr. pillpel. next speaker, please. >> edward mason. i'd like to give you a recap on the commuter bus situation in noe valley for june and july. we had a mystery bus that operated with no california license plates, no interstate commerce commission identification, and also occupied muni bus stops to lay over at 24 and chump at happy doughnuts. today at 25 and valencia, we figured out who it belongs to. it belongs to we drive you, but there's no stickers and it's not -- no blue stickers, and it's not paying a drive fee because you can only pay that if you have a blue sticker. valencia str

that is a huge part of my stakeholder group. and not just outdoor but indoor and any event on city property midwest ensure that at least 10% of the attendees have reusable cups. this would not just for water, but for beverage sales. and i need to qualify that by saying right now it's 100 attendees or higher is the threshold for when this ban goes into effect. so it can be that the attendees are bringing the cups with them or it can be that the event provides the cups and sell them or have a service provide them, but long story short, this has potential impacts on many of these community and curl churl events that are really tight with their budget and are just try ing trying to finish the year in the black. so i just have my main point right now is do we know enough about how to play out in the real world. have we talked to the stakeholders? have we heard from them and what does this look like? and if we imagine this happening. this consideration in terms of labor and sanitation and extra storage required if you are going to be

there was a group of folks and stakeholders in d.c. trying to cut this bureau's funding. the general impression inside the state department was we need to do a better job of helping this bureau tell its story i -- on capitol hill in particular. i went to the leadership of the bureau and said i would like to hand over the next quarterly meeting of the commission and 100 members of congress typically come. staffers from the white house will be there. this is a good chance to tell your story about the value of x programs. the leadership said, ok, which program should we focus on? i set these three programs are interesting and can help tell stories. at the end of the day, you know your bureau best. i cannot tell you what your stories are going to be, but i've got ideas. so they went back and had a team huddle and asked for another meeting and said, thank you. we appreciate the invitation, but we don't think we can tell our story in the 90 minute window on capitol hill. i thought they were joking. right? i thought they were playing a prank on me. would it matter if i gave you

because one of the greatest frustrations that the stakeholders and the public have when they go to apply for these permits -- and it's happened to me before in a different county, and it's extremely frustrating, is that when you have the agencies, they get together, they try to find solutions, they find solutions that are self-defeating to the entire proposal of trying to get more housing. let me just give you an example. let's say flor example, you require two exists, you're going to give an exception to the two exists -- exits, but that exception requires the builder to put in a sprinkler system that costs $.5 million that compromises the entire project. i'm not saying you should sacrifice safety, but i'm saying if there's 60 applicants right now, let them all into a room and let them know what you're going to do and have them come up with if there are any -- this is a self-defeating proposal. because you could find that you're imposing these restrictions, and you could find that these 60 applications turns into zero because nobody wants to do it because of the restrictions that are on

what makes it tough is the stakeholders. had not anticipated because if you are running a market that so many people would be interested in what is going on and pulled in so many directions and it always reminded me of going into an old fairgrounds mirror experience we look into this weird mirror and it would pull you in directions, like this. that is how it felt. what are all these people? why have the interested in lloyds. lloyds is an amazing institution. it is global. it operates in over 200 countries. you have governments interested in it. you have businesses. you have scientists. everybody seems to be interested. that is what i and are estimated. the complexity of the stakeholder base. francine: is it difficult to change on a diversity level but on a technology level? abovethe market is made -- so they are sharing complex risks. i cannot tell them what to do. i have to influence and bring them along with me if we are going to make change. there are 80 of these businesses, each one has a ceo setting it up. because they

more definitely, but the goal is to have a sustainable, let's say, supply chain to really be a stakeholderompany in which the prophet -- profit is a mean and not an end. so for sure a different model from the so-called shareholder company one. stakeholders are all parties that are directly or indirectly involved in the business and we have a hierarchy, consumer customers, talent working for us, suppliers without we wouldn't have this great coffee, the communities and at the bottom of the pyramid the shareholder, which is our family supporting the business. not trying to pull out the resources from that. francine: how tough is it working for a family run business? do you always have to get along or do you have to get independent advice? how does it work? andrea: well, it is, of course, a great responsibility because there is a legacy two generational already and the next generation ready to start working in the business. so it's not only a family business, it also has the family name, so this is a double responsibility. so my job is to grow the company by maintaining it consistent with the

[laughter] sean: and i thought they were joking, playing a prank on me. i said, would it matter if you had one hour, 45 minutes

despite the current efforts of some industry stakeholders, we continue to see an overall increase in the annual number of incidence with ever growing implications for airlines, passengers and crews. please remember that while the statistics provided here represent the best picture, they do not include all airlines around the world, so they likely underestimate the true extent of the problem. . . . loss product candidate, potentially significant cost them a real cost for all parties. they run in the hundreds of thousands were single diverted. they estimate $200,000. responding to an unruly passenger van can be a monumental task when you consider the incident taking place about seven miles above the surface of the earth traveling about 500 miles per hour. unlike when this incident occurs in any public setting simply walking away, calling 9-1-1 or pulling over to the side of the road is not an option. in fact, oftentimes huge volumes of resources may be required to respond to a passenger the flight has departed. air traffic controllers come lots of errors base our taxiways buy tradition

the complexity of the stakeholder base. francine: is it very difficult to change on a diversity level than on a technology level? inga: yeah, because the market is made up of syndicates, sharing the complex risks that lloyds does. so i cannot tell them what to do. i have to influence and bring them along with me if we are going to make change. there are over 80 of these individual businesses, each one has a ceo heading it up. because they are not employees and operating in a market, i want to take the market forward and introduce technology, new ways of working, changing environment, make more dynamic. perhaps get rid of old traditions that i don't think are making it appealing anymore, i have to bring all the business leaders with me on this. that has been very tough. francine: traditions like what, the use of paper instead of technologies and how difficult is it? inga: it is, because the business is being done almost identically to the way it was done 300 years ago. so when we were meeting in the lloyds coffeehouse when a

but what makes it so tough is the numerous stakeholders. -- you arenticipated running a market that soany people would be interested in what is going on and pulled in so many directions, it always reminded me of going into an old fairground mirror experience, where you look into this weird mirror and it would do all sorts of things, pull you in directions like this. that is how it felt when i started. i thought, what are all these people and why are they so interested in lloyd's? lloyd's is an amazing 330-year-old institution. operates in 200 countries and territories in the world. you have governments interested in it. ,ou have individuals businesses, scientists, everybody seems to be interested in. ,hat is what i underestimated the complexity of the stakeholder base. i have been trying to manage. francine: is it difficult to change on a diversity level and on the technology level? inga: because the market is made up of syndicates sharing these complex risks that lloyd's does. that means i can't tell them what to do. i have to influence them and bring them along with me if her going t

what authority or other help to the stakeholders need to better secure u.s. election infrastructure. >> i think since 2016 we have made significant progress in terms of securing america's election infrastructure. as i mentioned in my opening statement, i think the one piece of legislation i need is the cyber security and infrastructure agency act. i think that will streamline my organization and make it more effective in terms of engaging our stakeholders. you have to remember my authorities are almost entirely voluntary. so what i have to be able to do is clearly articulate who i am, what it is i do and how i can help. right now it doesn't really provide me that platform. thank you. senator brown. >> in april our un ambassador announced companies who helped. the play chemical weapons. they show that termination will be announcing those if he hasn't already. you are dealing with sanctions that were pulled back on orders of the president. when she spoke, they were identified and cleared through the usual interagency process. >> i'm not going to get into intera

what makes it so tough is the numerous stakeholders.ad not anticipated, because you are running a market that so many people would be interested in what is going on, and that you would be pulled in so many different directions. and it always reminded me of going into an old fairgrounds experience where it would pull you in directions like this. that is how it felt. like, what are all these people? why have they interested in lloyds? it's because lloyds is an 330-year-old amazing institution. it is global. it operates in over 200 countries. you have all sorts of governments interested in it. you've got individuals. you have businesses. you have scientists. everybody seems to be interested. that is what i underestimated. the complexity of the stakeholder base i have been trying to manage. francine: is it very difficult to change on a diversity level but also on a technology level? inga: yeah, because the market is made up of syndicates, sharing the complex risks that lloyds does. that means i cannot necessarily tell them what to do. i hav

we work with stakeholders to develop information-sharing venues for affinity groups. working with election officials, we established the election infrastructure information sharing and analysis center or ei-isac. all 50 states participating in the fastest growing isac. the nationally anonsed risk center provide as forum for understanding risk and developing solutions for reducing cyberin other systemic risks to national and economic security. the operational focus of the national risk management center is longer-term strategic risk. providing a cross-government and industry capability to address tomorrow's challenges. through the nrmc, we will partner with innovative industry coalitions like the financial systemic anat sis and resilience center, in the council to secure the defend the digital ecosystem. aiming to break down sector hadden based silos to craft a more holistic understanding of international risk and the strategies to drive down that risk. our mission at dhs is to insure that our stakeholders have the necessary tools and support to understand and act on r

the policy behind closed doors could be formulated by someone else added together by different stakeholders if that happens i think around could survive and he will be able to. deliver in some areas but not in areas and economies in one area because pakistan probably. with i.m.f. which we see now could be that i am of might not be happy to pay for those debts which pakistan has the money pakistan has borrowed from the seat of the seat back from chinese banks so there are you know clash of interests pakistan has always been a security street and interests of different regional and international powers meet in pakistan and because of its location because of his strategic position pakistan that's why this is a big challenge of what is funny democracy well why is it you were talking earlier about all. this do external challenges. facing pakistan and the souring relations with washington do you think it is a priority for the new prime minister to still try to straighten out a bit of those issues with washington and to try to appease at the same time india and china will the new prime minister ru
