to the cove, then we want it. >> keeping them out on the cove. and standing 12 feet by seven feet, this is what it is all about, but they tell me that they have become like the second home. the excitement for these don't stop here that they are investing in the ramp down on pier 48 to make it easier for them to paddle their way into the cove to keep doing what they love most. thank you so much, it is a wastewater wakeup call, taking san francisco to court over the alarming amount of raw sewage spilling into the bay. >> you better take a shower afterwards. >> it is the dirty side to that life on the water. >> and everything will get dumped out. >> i got an upclose look. and

that sparked a legal battle over years of pollution in the bay. >> and we have given them many years to try to solve the problem on their own and they have not been able to do it. tensions escalate as they surround that building and the response at uc irvine. plus it's a lot of trouble to go to, to get away with nothing. >> it's odd. >> an east bay business owner baffled at why they rammed into their store front. reclaiming heritage with each beat of the drum. >> and i feel pure joy, bliss. >> how the group is keeping this art form alive good evening on a beautiful

day like this, pollution in the bay probably isn't the first thing on your mind. but when you take a closer look, the help is concerning enough that they prompted them to take legal action. this month the agency sued the city of san francisco over the amount of sewage that is getting dumped into the bay. the problem is in heavy rain, they could be overflowing. water that has not been disinfected has been released into the local creek, the bay, and the beaches. i got a firsthand look where that just ends up and backs up, the potential consequences for the

people who live there. >> this has 55 flips where they docked their boat along san francisco for more than 30 years. it is also where they live in houseboats. it is just past the ballpark where bruno spends much of his time on his boat and around the water. >> would you swim in this water? >> i don't like to. no. >> it is just not, you know, if you swim in this water, then you better take a shower afterwards. >> and it is no secret that they are spilling after heavy rain. >> and everything will get dumped out into the creek. >> reporter: the director who

says that they get overwhelmed. >> and these are people who live on the water right here and so any time there is a discharge from the public utilities commission gates here in the creek, these homes are exposed to anything that's in the water. >> it is a sad situation and any time there is a heavy rainstorm that they are happening in this creek and that has pollution like trash and it also has sewage, raw sewage, bacteria, and they could have all kinds of things like the syringes. >> and you get needles and you name it. >> this is not a new issue. it has been going on for decades. now they are sounding the alarm, taking legal action, holding these agencies

accountable as they want something done now. in early march, they notified san francisco and their public utilities commission that they would be filing a lawsuit to hold them accountable for polluting the bay. and now the epa is doing the same, suing san francisco over the same conduct. >> and we have given the city many years to try to solve the problem on their own and they have not been able to do it where they told us many times that we have a master plan, putting millions into the system and yet year after year, they continue to discharge. >> the city has discharged the annual average of 1.8 billion gallons of combined sewage. >> and they are in canoes, so what is the concern for them? and have they launched any complaints? >> it is a good question where

they have been pretty silent on this issue, and they have not let us know what they are experiencing and in the area and san francisco that are really concerned about the pollution in the water. >> that is beyond help. >> and it just isn't a battle he wants to take on. >> is it a legal battle or is it fix the issue? >> yeah, so i really hope that they don't take this to court. we don't need to go to court and outside of court, we can come up with solutions that will be really better for the bay and the people of san francisco. >> and they might not ride out this wave. >> okay, so let's follow up with more on this. i reached out for a response and they

call that lawsuit unfair to taxpayers. they told us in a statement, partnership, support from the federal and state government would be more helpful than costly and counterproductive litigation. so the city does operate three sewage plants. they say it is upgrading one of them that will handle 80%. and they also plan to build the fourth and that they are investing $2 billion over the next 15 years to protect water quality. in the meantime san francisco is getting high marks for other efforts to help our planet. it is the second year in a row, topping the list for an energy efficient economy. the report praised stance for their electric public transportation system. it also encourages more compact development and residential areas, as well as their efforts to connect lower

income residents with rebates and incentives to go green. and a new plan to change the road when it comes to how they are paying their share for repairs. this is all because of the migration. in studio now with more and it is a test drive where they could earn up to $400 and i'm in. >> and their gas tax is expensive. most of that will go to fund the highway and the road repairs. but as they are ditching that pump and going all electric, they are losing out and they are paying more than their fair share. the state is testing out the few new alternatives on the number of miles that they will drive verses how much gas they buy. testing two models with that rate and based on the

vehicle's fuel efficiency. >> we have been doing a number of different studies, research on how they impact the disadvantage communities and those drivers and the super commuters, all those things to kind of understand and make good recommendations to the legislature if they want to consider this. >> and so they are looking for 800 people who will begin paying the fee every month and you could get a credit, so you were not double taxed. and opinions at the pump today were mixed. >> and if they are working great distances, how do you charge them for that? you know, if it is luxury, that's different. >> if you want to sign up, you can earn $400 in gift cards and find a link on our story on our

website kpix.com. and so i would drive a lot of miles and it does add up. how do you keep track? >> at least for the study. and that is what they are dealing with right now before the program would be implemented. you can take a picture. you can also have a little device installed or go high-tech where they could track where you're driving to. but it's their choice. >> okay, i would put a picture. >> i'm like in that less contact thing. yeah. but what's really easy to sign up and i signed up. you have to get picked. >> yeah, you're like she's driving to target and all these target ads will come up. you know who i'm talking about. thank you, anne. now to a situation we are monitoring at uc irvine. police appear to be moving in on the pro-palestinian protesters. we've seen them make arrests, hauling some protesters away who refuse to leave. the university says several hundred protesters would enter the physical sciences lecture hall.

now students are being asked to avoid the area. irvine police and the sheriff department are assisting university police. these protesters joined a group who had established an encampment right now as classes are canceled for the rest of the day. reaching an agreement with the group students for gaza where they have been camping out on campus for the past three weeks. in the agreement that they agreed to disclose their investment for the future investments, to divest from weapons manufacturers. the students say they are willing to work for the university and they ultimately want more. >> you will keep the pressure on. and what you have is this working group through the summer and the fall when we say this movement is not over, and we will continue to let our university leaders know that this is growing bigger and stronger. >> so the university says they will have the working group formed by the end of the month. this will come after an

agreement at uc berkeley yesterday. the chancellor says she plans to call for a cease-fire in gaza by the end of the month. she also said that the school would look at their investments to make sure they line up with their values. alameda county supervisors chose not to call a special election for the potential recall of d.a. pamela price. the recall will be on the november ballot, election ballot. today price said bring it on. >> to those prepared to try to overturn this election. you need to understand that we're ready for you. >> and price called the november date a win for democracy. she won her seat in 2022 though supporting the recall, they were pushing for a special election. arguing the county will be safer, but the recall would cost an estimated $15 to $20 million verses $4 million for adding the recall

to the november ballot. and the owner is offering a $500 reward for information that will help track down any of the people who rammed a car into the front of the shop. this happened just before 10:00 on solano way. the suspects couldn't get all the way in, so they took off. it makes no sense why anyone would target his shop. >> and we work with national labs and aerospace and defense contractors for electronic repairs. so it is a specific field of equipment. and it is a mystery on why they target us. >> the reason they couldn't get all the way in is because he had parked a forklift behind the door and now that door is damaged so badly that they have to use that forklift to open it. they say the same suspects tried and failed to hit a similar business that was

nearby. how fun does that look? still ahead, we are celebrating aapi heritage month and the drum culture playing a powerful role in helping japanese americans reclaim their identity. it's not a quiet passive art form that so many people associate with the japanese culture. >> it is something very loud, very powerful. >> i love it. plus why oakland's brand new baseball team is so interested in

reclaiming heritage with each beat of the drum. this art form was on full display at the 46th annual festival in san jose's japan town. as we celebrate aapi heritage month, we went behind the scenes with the san jose group to hear the meaning behind the music. >> reporter: when franco imperial hits the drum. >> i feel like there is a relationship happening in terms of connecting with the instrument. >> reporter: it creates a certain sensation. >> that will translate to what

they hear and reveal. >> and whether it is a single drum in the studio. or a group of them in the street. creating something that people can hear and feel is what san jose has been doing for the past 51 years. >> we all have a heartbeat and i think that pulse is something that we all tap into when we are doing any kind of drumming. >> reporter: he joined the group 26 years ago and he's the group's long-time artistic director. >> when i'm drumming, i feel pure joy and bliss. >> those are some of the feelings that they tapped into in 1973. when a new cultural pride emerged decades after world war ii in the hardship of internment. >> and that generation, i think it really struggled and fought to reclaim that identity with

pride and with honor. >> reporter: lisa began playing as a stanford student in 1993 and is now executive director. >> and for at least our select group of founding members really was away for them to say this is a japanese art form and it is not a quiet passive art form that so many people associated with the japanese culture. it is something very loud and something very powerful. and it is very much in your face as far as claiming their voice, claiming their heritage. and that really spoke to those individuals and they will continue to this day. >> a part of the japan town that the group has been evolved into the premier arts organization in the city, attracting students and players from all backgrounds. >> and it is that technique and

it doesn't matter your skin, gender, or anything about you and you could be a part of this group. >> and that drum beat goes on while reaching out to new artists every day. >> you can watch the roots and resilience on friday 4:00 p.m. on kpix and streaming on cbs news bay area. the follow will be widespread tomorrow morning this afternoon now into this evening, really thickening up and taking over downtown. we'll track it through tonight and thursday. take a

mugs. ♪ bmo ♪ things are very persistent with the weather pattern. that's what we would call a blocking high. it is just kind of camped over the pacific. what that has been doing is very late spring storm systems late in the north, keeping the winds further up. flowing in the offshore direction while closer to sea level that has been an onshore breeze, which means that the fog has been

doing their back and forth thing, and where they were suppose to be in may. and temperatures in the north bay also topping out mostly in the 70s, but a little cooler in petaluma. only reaching into the upper 60s. a look at where we would stand right now as we would take that look outside. there is that may gray that's hanging out. temperatures right now in the 50s and the 60s, anywhere from 58 degrees in san francisco to 76 degrees in both livermore and concord. the fog will become widespread once again. and as we would head

through the rest of tonight. reduced visibility is across the entire bay area. inland, it's not going to take very long for the fog to retreat. they should be clearing out by about 9:00 or so. it will take longer around the bay. by lunchtime that fog should make their way back to the coast. still showing those reduced visibility around san francisco by lunchtime, so the fog might be a bit more persistent compared to the past couple of mornings. temperatures tonight, dropping down to, well, what's normal for this time of the year with the lows dropping down mostly to the low to mid-50s. and we will take things to the north where the temperatures will reach up to the low 70s and will be cooler than the other parts of the bay area and even farther north, that they will be a couple of degrees below average. and dogs will see through their noses any way with plenty of sunshine that the fur will be soaking it up. probably making those temperatures in the how to

mid-70s feel warmer. let's fill in the rest of the map for tomorrow's forecast highs, and what is normal. one of these things is not like the other. that's san jose. upper 70s and the low 80s. just the upper 50s in the coast. it will be a mix of a lot of 70s, climbing into the low 80s as well. around the bay, temperatures will be cooler, maybe a couple of degrees warmer for today and san francisco and oakland. you'll be the coolest inland spot with the fog hanging out longer and the breeze manages to kind of weave their way into the terrain gap and make their way into the valleys of the north bay. until you go to the north in lake county is where temperatures will climb up into the 80s. let's check out the forecast for the next seven days, we will start inland where temperatures will be consistent in the 70s. the mid to upper 70s on the day-to-day basis. just hardly any change through the weekend and early next week. well that will go for bayside locations as well where the temperatures are consistently running in the mid

to upper 60s, which is very normal along the coast. a lot of cloud cover and sunshine peeking through, but not much with the temperatures in the upper 50s, every late night morning could bring in a little coastal drizzle to the bay area as well. jules? >> paul, thank you. the oakland ballers will have their sights on old bl
