the national rifle association is actually suing the city and county of san francisco over these two ordnances. when the city originally adopted them, it was not the case under that law that there was a second amendment right that might be infringed. we did not prepare as would normally be the case, with legislation with a constitutional dimension. we did not prepare findings at that point because we did not know these laws would be so closely scrutinized by the judiciary. now that we know that, it's important to come back to these laws and explain what the foundation is for them exactly and so, the fact these laws are under challenge right now in this city is one of the primary reasons why it is important for the board of supervisors to express what its rationale was for these laws. supervisor campos: thank you, and i reiterate the point that it is important to clarify the policy reasoning behind these laws and i think the discussion here today and the findings that will come out of it are clearly outlined, why from a public policy standpoint this makes sense. i do think ultimately,

there's a chance this is a leak, a diversion, so all the security attention will focus on those two cities of washington and new york making it perhaps easier to attack another city. >>> and that's just one of the reasons there is beefed up security here in the bay area especially on public transit at airports and on bridges. stephanie chuang is at the golden gate bridge with more on the preparations here. good morning, stephanie. >> reporter: good morning. the message to people as you know, don't panic but be prepared and be on the lookout. with the reports of this new possible terror plot, you have the high-profile places like the golden gate bridge here that will likely have much stricter patrols, tighter security, counter-terrorism officials warning this is from raw unconfirmed intelligence but pretty specific. reports suggest the targets of a possible car bomb attack include washington, d.c. and/or new york. but terrorism experts warn if the reports are true, the bay area actually needs to be on high alert. >> those are the most vulnerable targets. a subway in boston just or -- or san

countries, in the two cities, i should say, handed down the death penalty to four uighur men. two other suspects were sentenced to 19 years in prison. the six suspects had been charged with involvement in terrorism and murder in three separate cases. the local government blamed the attacks on muslim extremists. but a group of overseas uighurs said the chinese government's suppression of the uighurs is behind these attacks. the group claps that some criminal allegations are fabrications. in the autonomous region, ethnic conflict is deeply rooted between the hmong group and the uighurs. >>> the international atomic energy agency has condemned north korea for posing a threat through nuclear proliferation. the regular board meeting of the iaea in vienna discussed a report about north korea's nuclear program on wednesday. the report says the libya had procured uranium material from the black market. and the material is likely to have come from north korea. it says libya had the substance until the country declared it was abandoning the nuclear ambition.

if deputy city attorney kaiser could speak to what occurred through the chair. >> there are two lawsuits against the city brought by advocates. both lawsuits challenge the ordinances that are being amended to include legislative findings. the reason this is necessary is because in light of the court's ruling and how supervisor mirkarimi explained, these are more likely to be subject to judicial scrutiny and constitutional review. in this case the court took into consideration the board of supervisors considered and adopted in support of continuing these ordinances. it gives the court something to look at. supervisor mirkarimi: the influence of events especially with our public safety challenge and the gun advocate lobby going after modest gun safety laws, the dreadlocks and the ban on lethal ammunition, enhancing lethality like hollow point bullets, the conclusions of those events weighing in yesterday only justifies that much more wide this legislation and these findings are deemed that much more necessary. thank you. president chiu: any further discussion? i would like to be added as a

city tunnel 2 had two parallel valves. city tunnel 3 has 32, so there's much more redundancy. lloyd: we're targeting a completion date of 2012 for tunnel 3. and we already are starting to prepare to take tunnel 1 offline. narrator: the construction of tunnel 3 is vital for maintaining the sustainability of new york's drinking water infrastructure. but the pipeline is useless if there's not a reliable supply of clean water within it. hurwitz: the city bought up land around the reservoirs to prevent it from development. it provides assistance to local residents to see that there's no pollution of the reservoirs. it's much more cost effective to prevent pollution and to protect a source of water than to remove it at the drinking water treatment plant. lloyd: what epa said to us was, "you can have an exemption from filtration "if you keep this undeveloped, "and if you can manage the wastewater so that it does not pollute your water supply." and we feel that we've reached the point where we can really keep it clean enough to drink unfiltered for the indefinite future. and new york

those two cities. i would say that people should be alert. i don't think anybody should be panicked. when you -- when an administration comes to a decision about whether to let this information out that there is something that we picked up that suggests that there might be an attack being planned, they've always got to make good judgment whether to make it public. making it public jeopardizes sources. but in this case, by think it's important because it alerts everybody to be on guard this weekend. and be careful. >> help us understand, because most people don't get access to the intelligence, don't see the reports, don't read classified information. what makes this difference that the administration would take that extraordinary step to say not just a general warning, but to say this is specific and credible, be vigilant? >> you've got a couple of things going. one is we know from documents taken from osama bin laden's compound by s.e.a.l. team six, that he was encouraging people in al qaeda to carry out another major attack on the united st
