we in california have a huge stake in this sort of - this kind of vulnerability to warming. you can see there's some in the northeast but not to the degree we have here. we've already seen over the west,mory, is sitting in the audience, the hydraulicist and he looked that fraction of run off that happens between april and july. our tradition snow melt period in california, you can pretty much attribute the volume of run off from the sacramento system, which is - that's what is mapped here occurring between april and july attributed to run off, and that has declined from what used to be, i'm having trouble reading my own slide here but i'm thinking that's 40 to 30 percent, but we've lost a significant fraction of that spring and summer snow melt run off, and when viewed across the western landscape, that's lower map picture here on the left where the red dots represent earlier timing of snow melt, basin flows and the blue one's mean later. earlier ones mean spring is coming earlier and things are warming up. we see an earlier footprint of the flows and something of the timing

we had to do assessment of the water vulnerability in current conditions. that's a key point. how vulnerable are we - not under existing conditions although this is important information to know - but how vulnerable would be be if we had the flexibility to change the way we operate and that's a we question. and that races something more important than science and that's politics. next slide. what shouldn't be done? don't assume future climate will look like the past. actually i'll say it one more time on the conclusion. do not justify actions using climate change without the science to support them unless their justified for other reasons. i'm going to poke a bear here - a big bear - but he's not in the room so can't kick me out. the governor proposed two new surface reservoirs in california and the large part of the back up justification was issue of climate change and the terrible impact on storage. people are not doing to believe this, not opposed to new damages but i'm apposed to amdams. i think it's a great way to evaluate new,dams or possibilities for them in california

but as i mentioned earlier, we are vulnerable, we all are. and hurricane season for new orleans and louisiana come once a year. we know. june first-november one. we know that earthquake season is everyday. you never know. i don't want you to have blinders on to think this is not a part of reality right now. because it can happen. so, begin to organize today. this is just an example of a meeting flyer that we had in broadmoore post katrina, galvanizing our residents having festivals to get our people engaged and involved. some of the other things that you can do today is start developing repopulation strategies. in a disaster how will you find your people and determine what their needs and bear yers are? these are things you can have in place right now. but for broadmoore we had to do this in the aftermath. i can't stress to you enough to make sure that you incorporate your vision and your strategies. block captains aided us in our recovery. block captains are people living on blocks who stepped up to say, i will be the eyes and ears of my are

we are all vulnerable. these are pictures of broadmoore. the homeses. we are a national historic district. we have 5 housing styles in broadmoore. it's a great place and we were not going to allow a group of, so called, constituents of broadmoore to determine we would not come back and say our neighborhood was not viable when our homes were not off their structures. they were sound. they were structurally sound. this neighborhood was built in 1905-1920. as you see some of the homes, most are raised basement homes we call your living quarters really on your second level. they are not on your first. the first is basement storage space but the purpose the real purpose here today is for us to strengthen and empower our neighborhoods to take responsibility for not only our own sake but that of your neighbors and your neighborhood. we have to build our human and social capacity within our neighborhoods. that's a lesson broadmoore learned. it's about building community you do that as you come together as neighbors as you build the trust because it matters. it

our recommendations are divided in vulnerability analysis, and dividing the analysis, second is strategy and i want to mention the other two, prevention, how water agency s can be part of a broad strategy to reduce greenhouse gases and third is how we think manager's have a roll to play especially in the american west. there are three response strategies i'd like to talk about. scenarios and strategies is our topic on this panel. the first strategy we think is key, is looking - not just about the impacts of our climate change on our existing cl climate change but looking how it effects the tools into the future. looking forward and how it will effect the tools available to us in the future. the next strategy is integrated water ma'am meant and third one, is inbe greating energy in water issues. let's start just for a moment and talk about what we know are likely impacts of climate change and what that means on how water manager's tools will perform. a number of folks mentioned that they would see more evaporation, that means keeping this patch of green on green will take more than it did

the vulnerable buildings, and the vulnerable populations of people with disabilities in the area. there has been a huge amount of work that is happening under the leadership here i want to thank you. we have a lot of people coming here after hurricane katrina. we all have to come together and so many different agencies come in, and they will connect to the data base together. and we have all these different private partners. we are trying to set things up at st. mary's. as if this was a project can act. we have the intake process, and we knew how to deliberately organized. and this is an important discipline. this is almost an exercise in and of itself. >> i would like to say that under your watch, what has been impressive is the emphasis on activating the service center. they have been invaluable, and indispensable. i think that this will play on having people compare themselves beyond 72 hours. this makes us more confident in the ability to weather whatever happens as long as we're able to take on the town, and the quality of activating, in a gratitude kind of way, and organized

government websites, too, have been vulnerable. the senate website was slowed last week after senator joe lieberman criticized sites enabling wikileaks. the attacks used software that chain together hundreds of computers that all request information from the same website at the same time. causing a traffic jam that makes the site inaccessible. >> it's a little bit more like what happens in the '60s when protesters took over buildings at, you know, universities where people couldn't get in the building but it's not really them blowing up the building. >> brown: while all that goes on, this weekend there was another example of on-line hacking. this one affecting the popular site gawker. an eight-year-old digital media company that hosts blogs on media, technology, and pop culture. a group calling itself no-sis raided gawker borrowing inside its databases to unlock the user names, passwords and email addresses of some 1.3 million people who had left comments on the site. gawker was forced to stop publishing temporarily sunday and urge

before obama signed the treaty, they express add desire to make the united states more vulnerable to future attacks. while discussions about the treaty were under way, prime minister putin commented on american missile defenses. last december he said, "by building such an umbrella over themselves, the united states could fill themselves fully secure and will do whatever they want." and putin got what i wanted. the russians successfully linked missile defense to an offensive strategic nuclear weapons treaty. after obama signed the treaty, the russian government issued a statement that said the treaty can operate and be viable only if the united states refrains from developing its missile defense capabilities, quantitatively and qualitatively. how much more clear could they be? the understanding of the russians is that this treaty ties our hands and prohibits us from defending our citizens against russian missile attacks. by giving the russians this lever, the treaty dampens the u.s. ability to defend against missile attacks. this has been the effect -- or has the effect of making amer

it is the tiny baltic states which feel especially vulnerable to russian pressure. they don't give them the guarantee of protection, but it is only this year that they got a specific plan. one cable from hillary clinton announces on january 22 nato allies agreed to expand the nato contingency plan for poland eagle guardian to include reinforcement of the baltic states. she also makes clear the plans are secret. the public discussion would likely lead to an unnecessary increase in nato-russian issues. this official called it an early christmas present. almost one year on, confirmation they have a specific military plans is is -- is a surprise. it is embarrassing for the u.s.. it demonstrates america's failure to protect secrets and it points to a double policy. suspicion of russia in private expressing the cooperation in public. this was hillary clinton ending quarrels with russia last year. >> we want to reset our relationship. >> but it looks as if suspicion is the order of the day. >> among the first revelations from a wikileaks worthy calls for some arab leaders

those are highly vulnerable areas of the city. you can see those highlighted in red. in orange, we have major displacement occurring. one of the most important means of communicating after a disaster will be wireless communications. we will need towers to carry the load and battery backup to power them. the non-profit sector will depend on these communications systems to convey critical communications between nonprofits and faith based organizations who do not have radios that police, fire, and medical personnel have. these organizations are first responders in their own right, reaching out to deliver critical missions to the people who depend on it every day in normal times. these are the most significantly impacted after a major earthquake. putting barriers in place through this proposal will only serve to weaken the overall communication capacity. thank you for considering a proposal. chairperson maxwell: thank you. >> excuse me. my name is brian -- brad cahoon. i represent t mobile. we have submitted several letters of the past year. the request that all of the cu
