you have underground pipes, you have underground valves. they get what they call tuberculin built up. you would compare it to a 100-year-old man that has heavy cholesterol. they could be 6- or 8-inch mains, but being 100 years old, they actually may be 2-inch mains. and they reduce the amount of volume of water that's available to us. johnson: there were a number of things that we have had to do in order to get the system back up to an acceptable standard. replacing mains and valves and fire hydrants and other components of the system to ensure that it operates properly. egan: we consider both the underground infrastructure and the above ground assets to be a part of the critical infrastructure of the city. johnson: and if the infrastructure is not there to actually deliver that water in the volume and the quality that's necessary, then communities simply can't exist. man: infrastructure is vital to the american economy. water, after all, is an essential ingredient in hundreds of thousands of everyday products. narrator: agriculture and ind

how much will really change underground's?

luckily while the underground portion of the station is being built. will easily be done and presented back to you and nta before it is time to build the actually station house, so the whole thing works, it is funded, we look for the start of it. i wanted to brief you on those things. happy to answer any questions. >> thank you. >> opening it up for public comment, i do have some speaker cards. amy chung, cynthia joe, phil chen, allen liu, leon wing ho. >> good afternoon, president fong and es steamed commissioners, i'm amy chung. my family has been five generations in china town. we are business people. my family currently has herbal medicine shop on washington street half a block from this location. i grew up literally at this corner. i went to school at st. mary's, about a block away, i was born in the chinese hospital. i know this place. when they are knocking down this building, it will be with great regret that we are losing our favorite beef jerky store. what i want to tell you, though, is i'm so looking forward to the building of the station. n

wisely with diesel and electric put it underground and runs under park avenue. it is amazing when you go to grand central station that all the trains are coming in, you don't know they are there. they enter manhattan, disappear underground and come in. that is what we need. in what could be a new rockefeller center or additional embarkadero center that could happen in transbay and be the logical business center of california and western united states, which i think is important. i think it was a really good presentation. reminds me of the time we were considering another issue some years ago. this happened to be 555 washington. many nights i would run to maritime plaza and try to imagine that one sliver of time when the sunlight might go past the buildings that were blocking maritime plaza. i don't know if i was ever long enough to stay that sliver of time there might be a shadow cast on a park during the time i was doing my run. i think that is instructive. of course the part of the few shadow is very important. if you are a long ways a way, it is an analogy to

everything is underground so it's highly technical work. i have a quote from mr. carp, who is the geoengineer on this project. says the success of grouting is highly dependent on the skill of the speciality subcontractor. it is not a procedure that always produces the desirable results. structures near the area being grouted somebody monitored and grouting should be discontinued and care taken in intrusion of conduits. finally, i have a letter from mr. carp, but i don't think was in their packet to you, but it's dated march 11, 2012 -- >> how long is it. >> i'm not going to read it. >> your time is up. >> this whole page and a half is just about worrying about the garage, roof, and the possibility of it caving in, and how it could be structured differently to make it more stress resistant, et cetera. >> you can have time on rebuttal. >> okay. thank you very much. >> ms. dick. >> good evening, madam commissioner and members, ilene dick on behalf of shane bush the owner for the property which has been appealed. hind me is what i like to think of the braintrust of th

they stole the gasoline directly from your underground tank. that trailer that you saw, it was probably equipped with its own pump and tank. wolfe: inside the trailer, the thief accesses your tanksthrough a trapdoor. he pries open the manhole cover with a crowbar, then he cuts the lock, breaking into the fill cap. once he's in, he snakes in his own hose and starts to pump. what he does is, he pulls the fuel straight out, right into his own tank in the trailer. that's a... pretty serious job. this could be organized crime. duquesne: if that's what dan granger stumbled upon, it could have been what got him killed. yeah, but you know what doesn't make sense? i mean, to do all this takes, like, at least 20, 30 minutes. i mean, you didn't sense that there was anything weird going on during that time? i was busy in back with a customer. okay, now you're sure that you weren't being distracted? i knew it was too good to be true. there was this girl. legs till tuesday. i mean, she was banging, off the chain, man. all right, we got it, she's pretty. did

it also has competent serious workers and of course, rich underground resources. i see infinite possibilities there. >> a service suggested brazilians like quietness in the car, so they are marketing the measures they have taken to make their vehicle sound proof. still, they are making a lot of noise outside. in a market they say is full of opportunity. nhk world, san paolo. >>> the leader of an uprising by chinese leaders in war time japan died. leading workers in the incident, he was 97 years old. >>es with a leading figure who confronted the issue of war time compensation. this is a major loss for us. >> about 1,000 chinese workers in akita prefecture in 1945 decided they had enough of their cruel working positions. jun led them to riot. chinese citizens were brought to japan against their will. they were forced, with many others, to work odd a construction site to work for the predecessor of what is now kajima. in 1995, gunjun, survivors and bereefed families filed a lawsuit against kajima asking for compensation. parties agreed in 2,000 to a koord immediatate

the problem with underground is that it's not always consistent. and that runs from the borings that are done on a spot basis, limited basis, usually, to ascertain what the profiles are is one thing. however, most people would design these with a great deal of conservativism and i think that's probably what not only the engineers but the department reviewing it. looking at the appellant's letters related to their analysis of the situation, i would say that their concerns are what is potential risk, and less so with a serious deficiency or error made in this particular either design or the issuance of the permit. i'm surprised that one of the things that wasn't brought up is water flow. it was, in one word issued in -- because underground construction like this especially, with this type of grouting, is going to change the water flow, undergroundwater flow in that area. whether it impacts adjacent neighbors or not, it's really hard to determine. but it's a common enough technology these days, it's common enough to use it also for water-proofing purp

this is done using pumps which force air through underground pipes.he air then comes out through small holes in the ground. today everyone's happy with the project -- but it was hard to get it off the ground. >> the catalyst for such projects was really pressure exerted by china's central government to do something to protect the environment. but during the course of the realization, you can see people's mindsets change. they gradually become proud of their projects. >> if matthias ginter had his way, every city in china would have a waste treatment facility like this. he hopes others will now follow gaobeidian's example. >> and now its time to tickle your tastebuds with another global snack. whenever our reporters travel the world we ask them to bring back the no-fuss foods people like to enjoy around the globe. and today we tackle tackatschos in chile. >> for today's global snack we've travelled to the peruvian capital, lima. this coastal city is a cultural melting pot. to demonstrate the diversity of peruvian cuisine, lima has set up a culinary bou

what can they learn about going in opposite direction, deep underground? the duchess of cambridge has made her first overseas speech as the royal couple continues the diamond jubilee tour of southeast asia in the south pacific. she spoke after she and prince william met children in a hospice in malaysia, and she used the speech to talk about the terminally ill. earlier, they visited a memorial of commonwealth casualties from the second world war in singapore. >> with the current conflict in the back of their minds, prince harry is in afghanistan, this was a moment for william and kate to remember a battle from the past. thousands of our british and allied troops lost their lives trying and failing to defend a singapore in 1942, when it fell to the japanese. churchill called it the largest capitulation in british history. >> when the british pulled out of singapore, it had a great impact on us. the local people felt let down, because we depend on the british to look up to them -- look after them. >> on another hot day in this peaceful setting, william and k

the corner building is also newer and it has about 9,000 feet underground parking. if we didn't have parking at 402 8th avenue and they didn't have parking at 7th avenue, 4300, we would put about 50 or 60 cars back on the street for staff, not patients, just the staff and the principles of the office employing the staff. and i have yet to see someone come to the pediatrician on my floor or the obgyn or the podiatrist or the hand clinic on a bus. when i come out to dentist they're blocking the exit because they want to discharge and pick up their children and their patients. thank you. >> good evening, planning commissioners. my name is john curly. i'm a contracter and small developer. i'm here just to talk about the inconsistency of the planning code because i built a property at 763 6th avenue. and the requirements i had to meet, i had to meet a light well just to face into a bedroom -- actually the building -- i looked in the front stepped in three fight which i didn't know why it even required a light well. i was hoping today when i came here that i would gate co

but anyhow, he had a boarding house that was the underground railroad. and he as well as other black and, both groups helped hundreds if not thousands of fugitive slaves, making their way to the north, who came to new york and these folks help hide them away from the bounty hunters and then help them get either further north of new england are ultimately to canada as frederick douglass was one of the people who pass through new york on his way out of slavery in the 1830s. but new york -- there's another side to new york, which is the side that is really embedded economically and politically in the slave system of the south. new york was absolutely critical financially and economically to slavery before the civil war. this is a painting showing vessels -- i'm going to wait until that stops. yeah, don't leave without buying my book, you know, anyhow, this is a view of sailor ships from the south on the east river dock, right before the civil war. and new york was the place that bankrolled really the harvesting, the planting, harvesting and shipping of sout

do you see that moving toward sort of underground railroad style organizing. essentially trying to pool resources in terms of where the right still is accessible in a legal and safe way, and those becoming sort of hubs for the country, and other women trying to help them and get to those places? >> i think you just showed those examples. and there are abortion funds where people raise money to provide for low-income women who live in states where there's no funding for abortions, there's no insurance since the hyde amendment in 1977. but, you know, they're always on a shoestring. it's very hard to raise the kind of funds that they need for that. and, you know, even if these things are organized and i know there's also people who are trying to reinvent some of these things and planning to do that if need be but in the 60s even with that they never could reach everybody. they never were able to provide for everybody who needed abortion. even if it was pretty open in the late 60s and all the underground women's lib newspapers and all, not everyone would hear abou

the initial idea was to bury highly radioactive nuclear waste more than 300 meters underground. but opposition from people living near candidate burial sites has deadlocked the plan. the science council's proposal says the public must agree on nuclear policies before disposal sites can be selected. council members flagged japan's high seismic and volcanic activity. they say current technology can't predict which locations will remain stable for tens of thousands of years. so they suggest temporarily storing nuclear waste for decades to hundreds of years either above or below ground. the scientists say technological development and public consensus should take place during that time. >>> farmers in northeastern japan are trying to get their fields back. last year's tsunami soaked their land with saltwater. damages top more than $10 billion. cleaning up the soil is one option, but farmers are also working with scientistins to fi crops that can grow despite the pollution. nhk world has the story. >> reporter: takahashi has grown rice and vegetables on his farm in miyagi prefecture

so underground tacti like this. th isn quite theacist campaign flier under t windlderthur parking lot, but it's the digital age version of that. how do you know whether or not this stuff is going to work? >> the the first thing you need to to know about the gop is this is a party that needs professional counselng. they d bieveevutio they don't believe the president was born in this country. they don't believe the polls now. so now they are running these weird ads. but they are in fantasy land. they are going back to an er when these kinds of ads could but it's the same old thing. it's presenting the candidate, the democratic candidate as the other. they think it's easier now because barack obama is african-american. so they present him as the otooheerg reriend of the muslim is that he's black. but the country has changed. it's not the same. so they are out of touch with what's going on in the country. d se pemy is the demographic issue. the country has chand in terms of the makeup of the population. you know, we don
