i think i work on the clean air act particularly a sydney mines, keeping people healthier and massive result providing enormous benefits across the country and in our economy. so as you know, very clearly, we need a strong epa to save her children, safeguard the community and safeguard our future. there is a recent series of article in "the new york times" which were fascinating and are producing a significant amount of new information that is presented in ways that are more understandable than they have been in the past for many people. in fact, stories like little or no testing for radioactive levels and radio to the above those levels can be very important. so i just want to ask you a few questions along those lines. among the issues raised was that hydraulic fracturing waste border contains radioactivity at levels much higher than previously known. and it is being sent to wastewater treatment plants that cannot safely remove the radioactive materials. these plant but then dumping this contaminated water into rivers, streams and those rivers and streams supply drinking water and as

i remember, and kevin drew will remember when sydney chan, then a rec and park commissioner, yelled out, "find a new place now." it was very clear they were on a temporary status. the second thing is that the markets in the area will lose their compliance with the bottle bill. my take on that is -- who cares? let the big corporations deal with it. it is their responsibility. we by the sodas from the stores. we take them back to the stores. they do not have to use the reversible machine. you can always take it into the store. all through europe, they use these rivers recycling machines. they work. i do not see any problem. the third is that the native plant nursery is being evicted. this is absolutely not true. you saw in the sketch, it was 10, over in the left, the first phase. the native plant nursery will be there actually very close to where it is now. i support recycling. i have a ultimately it -- ultimate respect for the hanc people who have over the years been pioneers, and i just hope they can find a place to relocate this. supervisor mirkarimi: thank you. next speaker please. >>
