the precipitation another hetch hetchy it is almost an average for the month and some potential for precipitation tomorrow night as well as over the weekend so we may be above average for the month of october it is early but something. >> total deliveries after our summer peak of 23 hundred and 5 m g d we've dropped down and demand is a redondo strained by folks we're seeing very, very the outside irrigation people are conferring substantially. >> and the total water savings is well above the target and continues on the upward trend the entire year. >> briefly about the only thing lastly as i mentioned last time we are that running a full

scale at the time of the aqueduct systems used in 1992 drought we begin into the mountain tunnel and it is down to the bay area of october 14th the test is winding down now we'll return to hetch hetchy other than november 3rd we've targeted november 12th but had some precipitation in cherry that caused a spike so we elected to start the bach off of the cherry supply but be able to fully test the system and found we're a little bit of a challenge but by the knew the test was successful and delivered water to the cherry customers a reminder noted to this is what the cherry aqueduct for a period of three weeks and

ran effectively here to answer any questions. >> thank you very much mr. kelly. >> that concludes my report thank you. >> bosco update. >> public comment on general public comment. >> public comment on the drought report? >> good afternoon eric brooks san francisco green party sustainability chair a quick question for staff you noted that a reservoirs was drawn down to do technical work on the reservoirs and i think pipe connections i was wondering whether when this happens is that storage transferred somewhere else especially during a drought it is doable or do we lose the storage the other

question i thought a sf clean power update is that later on in the agenda? >> okay. let's take a look. >> good afternoon, commissioners commissioner vice president moran congratulations on our election as vice president i hoped to be able to congratulate commissioner president vietor in her president i was not here at the last meeting but thank you to the for commissioner caen and her kind comments about the relationship that is well, this year for the drought campaign as evidenced by the slides it steve richie put up i wanted wanted to

start off i wanted to speak about mountain tunnel very pleased with the action that is before you today puc has an engineering firm to provide the vitality plan for the assistance to fix the mountain tunnel i urge you to move forward and act think that recommendation from our staff and getting this firmer on board quickly to protect the water users from the collapse from this water system the staff recommend an agreement whether result in step up to the plate the connective reliability risks of mountain tunnel and i agree i also want to urge you to this commission to address two other major actions required to eliminate those risks of water supply outage as i said over the past 22 months since we were

informed the mountain tunnel might have a catastrophic flurry talked about the risk and the possibility of extending when the tunnel is shut down your staff concluded it could be done i appreciate the response as well and hope that the opportunities to shrink the overall program we examined this work as it moves forward second on september 22nd i spoke to you at the time i spoke about the 5 part plan with the completion with the acquisition to fix it in the effectual of a failure from the tunnel collapses and raping to create an emergency response plan but the fifth part of this total plan to identify and implement plans for how to

meet water supply needs not region in the event of an not planned option and if bosco is at risk today of not having the sufficient water supplies in event of the collapse of the mountain tunnel and to address this issue including the identification of alternative water supplies that is necessary to prepare for and reduce the risk of a water supply shortfall for the entire region an urgent i believe will require assertive leadership in negotiations by san francisco to meet this challenge all 5 parts of this mountain tunnel plan plans will be required to begin the task and specific actions and completion date each felt 5 parts should be examined to determine if their

schedule schizophrenia be short end i appreciate the commissions opportunity to speak today that concludes my remarks i'll answer any questions you might have and i have a copy for the commissioners. >> thank you, commissioners. >> thank you very much. >> actually, i have a question. >> okay. >> you've spoke of this before have you and boca received anything of us in terms of a timeline? >> for an emergency operations plan no, we have not i have taken the initiatives of scheduling meeting with the agencies to look at what flexibility they have and their supplies and your staff is attending those but there is no timeline for identifying when

that question will be addressed and resolved. >> okay. i do notice on i asked for in timeline we did june 23rd and under the hundred 2 dash 19 an emergency response implementation and it is a solid line but nothing addressed 0 this. >> to the emergency response plan is scoped specifically at tasks that need to be done on mother-in-law to fix the tomb or prepare to fix the tunnel in an event of a collapse construction work to repair the tunnel that's moving forward i asked for the other part that is from the tunnel is going to fail what is

the plan for making sure we have sufficient water supplies because right now the expectation the failure is up to 9 months to fix and so in the meantime, your staff has come forward with the local supplies is 3 months maybe a little bit more certainly not 9 months of supplies so until my request how to plan to get through that and do some thinking ahead to understand more what might happen and the opportunities to remove some of the risks. >> general manager this is safety for all of us not only for bosco but san franciscans that should be addressed. >> yeah. i think one of the things that steve richie you might want to speak on it we're looking at not only if it, it is

a failure other not having assess to the hetch hetchy how long what we go without you know the hetch hetchy water i thought that was more than 3 months. >> yeah. yeah. >> steve richie assistant general manager yes, we prepared a technical memo we've finalized we'll provide to the commission we seated the potential for outage of 90 days excuse me. 90 days one hundred and 20 and 90 days we have plenty of compatibility to provide one and 80 days we just fall short so contrary to the comments there is not this huge gap beyond 90 days we can get one 80 days with

the demand management we can manage that 200 and 70 days we have to have more significant actions we met with bosco and identity the shift by the customers is an important thing to do we agreed to meet together with the individual customers to do that i want to make sure you're clear we have been work on this and on all the correspondence to bosco we have supplies available and manage our supplies in the event of a shortage from hetch hetchy for whatever reason we do that not certainly not frequently but every year we have a month or two shut down we always go to alternative supplies that basic plan is there so i get irritated with had it is indicated no plan we have a plan to do deal with

those situations 9 months is a long time we have more work to do to cover that thank you. >> any other questions. >> thank you. >> public comment? >> seeing none, we'll move on to the consent calendar mr. secretary read the items. >> item 4 a consent calendar all matters listed hereunder constitute a consent calendar, are considered to be routine there will be no separate discussion of these items discussion of these items unless a member of the commission, the public, or staff so requests in which event the matter shall be removed from the consent calendar and considered as a separate item at this or a future hearing. a ward agreement and authorized the professional services with goodwill solution not to exceed $3 million with a duration of two years and number one to the joint agreement with the

emphasis the specific conditions that were laid out in the agenda items those conditions with happy new year the pricing is consistent with the commissions adopted policies and this is the issue of having the cleanpowersf program meet our availability goals renewable contents for supplies through this pool of bidders from eligibility portfolio those are california compliance portfolio standards resources located here in california that is achieving the clean power of the program and moving to some of the other aspects of it we want to make sure that the approval is conditioned on counter parties or counter parties are the suppliers meeting your support

requirements so have a good counter party to move through the program with us and volumes are limited to the 60 megawatts the commission authorized us to got rid of and bid option one contract are not to steady 5 years and the same for the resource adequacy that same 5 year limitations and bid the firm renewable contracts that will be limited to terms of greater than 25 years the resource adequacy contracts with limited to procuring the quantity required by law and finally, the total cost of the energy supply will not steady $35 million per year that is placing constraints on the general manager authority in

that will presented in the context of our expected costs and rates for the program our business plan and risk assessment we'll be bringing those forward for your review pursuant to the schedule on the 7 in draft form on the eighth and final form and finally we adopt best practice on december 8th under our current schedule with that, we'll be seeking approval to move forward to the board of supervisors on a track for approval of those tracks with that, i'll be happy to answer any questions i would note that you know our common practice to include some additional dripers of how we selected the bidders and in this situation we selected a pool of bidders they did evacuation team went through a paved fail test

as opposed to a scoring test and those bidders that passed were brought forward to the pool and were seeking approval to negotiate in this pool setting to make sure we leverage has much competition among the counter parties and bring the lowest price to the program with that, i'll be happy to answer any questions. >> commissioners. >> question commissioner caen. >> i'm very happy with that plan the question i have for you are we're going to know what green pg&e chosen. >> before we choose ourselves if ours is better green we'll know that you that.

>> we will know penguins we know what pg&e has filed as planned we won't know exactly what they've committed to by the time we sign confirmation for the supply we know they're commenting solemnly swear committing to california compliant portfolio content category one power we do know what the particular mix is i understand it is largely solar. >> so what we know about the program is was it they stated at the california puc. >> okay. we're shugz u choosing at the same time, they are. >> yes. >> and they're planning is my understanding to launch their program in the spring of 2016 as well. >> oh, i thought that was before that. >> no. we're on pretty much the same schedule.

>> so - which reminds me a typo in the agenda we indicated january 2015 rather than 2016 that needs to be corrected. >> if i can add to that our premium product is super green that is what pg&es product would be they're green takeover one hundred percent renewable the difference with pg&e you can decide on how much green how much of that power you want to pretty much is like a scaleable. >> actually, i building that general manager kelly that was a concept they had attempted to implement but not sure they have authority i'll double check on

the concept whether pg&e customer could elect to participate in pg&es green takeover program for that a portion of their supply so they could have their own mix of 100 percent and not 100 percent percent to get a blend i'll come back to you with an answer on that question. >> okay mr. brooks asked inform a general update this is co-sponsoring to the schedule by other schedule. >> no others schedule changes the schedule we presented here and the last commission meeting we presented at bosco and we're on track we have had the opportunity to present additional information about our customer outreach activities to lafco and want to take the

opportunity at the chairs pleasure after the vote. >> okay. >> any other questions or comments on the item any public comment on the item mr. brooks. >> good afternoon again commissioners eric brooks san francisco green party our city of san francisco and san francisco clean power advocates i urge you to move that forward and move all aspects forward as quickly as possible the sooner we get our act together the better we'll beat them to the punch on marketing a side note, of course, this idea that pg&e is going to have a quote/unquote 100 percent green they'll allot the customer to decide how much

percentage from their energy from 100 percent is basically having a way of noted having 100 percent and calling that 100 percent they know the customers will choose lower percentages or percentages that leads me to the next point that i want to kind of follow-up and sort of hopefully change the angle where things were last meeting with regards to advocates and when we have criticisms what we're bringing to the table on cleanpowersf many of us for over a decade and all of us for many years have been fighting pg&e and pg&e marketing in some cases our full-time jobs almost those locally and in san francisco and on the state level in 2010 with prop 16 and 2014 with ab 2145 with the two bills we've become extremely

well-versed to how to respond to pg&e tactics and pr and so just and things like timing of the program and things like that please understand i said to lafco on friday when we have krivenlgz for what is being done by the staff and power enterprise we're no longer in the contention mode 3 years ago we thought the program was off the radials now working collaborating with the staff to approve the program and make to stronger we're missing something we had the thing that got us a a strong program that lair when she was here had monthly mergers with the public the public helped to make the decisions in

leveraging to monthly meeting with the advocates helped to make the decisions it was very contention program but staff and advocates made the decisions totaled o together we were better now staff invites us to meetings and asking them to help us do their plan when we raise cease we're moving forward we need the collaborative monthly process back, please work on that thank you. >> is there any additional public comment. >> yes, sir. >> hello, i'm jarring any the new orientation or organizer for the sierra club i'd like to support a lot of of what my friend eric said we want to see more collective collaboration and i like that eric said we're in a friendly place for more

than 10 years the sierra club and others friends of cleanpowersf have talked i talked about more than 10 thousand people we have reported and we want to see it 10 years ago and we're very happy we're in the place we are we're looking at bids and starting to plan like to echo we would like to see this with as few details as possible. >> jason fried executive director for lafco we did a great presentation from our staff about what is going on and fully supportive of moving forward we want to encourage this be moved forward of move forward as soon as possible the question that comes up is what the pentagon green takeover program look like and the things to remember we might not know

the process but the general mix so it is easy for our staff to say with confidence they'll go back with a greener program maybe we have more solar or what is relevant how have green house gas emissions and the program by your staff will be emitting less green house gas emissions and what are we emitting less green house gas and the contractors you'll be talking about with i encourage to you to give the general manager to give the go ahead to save the green house gas emissions until a program rudolph we're not saving any green house gas emissions but we can control that better by having our own program. >> commissioners any

additional questions or comments. >> i do i think in first of all, with with all due respect with all the effort getting us to this point from our own staff but the folks from the sierra club and the green party it is admirable and i'm enthusiastic to move the ball along to address the point that was raised about the comfort level of certain types of engagement that may or may not be take place or take place in the past i'll ask staff to give us a horticulture memorandum to understand we don't have the lecturer of hearing what kind of dialogue and the agenda is set and how the announcements are made i remember i don't think i got a chance to work with laura

but since it was referenced what piece of pulls might we be able to put into play to gleaning folks as we move into 2016 i'd like to get information from staff about those engagements the thirty thousand foot levels thank you. >> any other comments questions? >> may i have a motion. >> i'll make a motion. >> second. >> moved and >> i. >> opposed? number one, the that motion carries we will be going into closed session mr. taylor's read the items i'm sorry oh. >> i have a presentation updating the outreach activities that we have been engaged in with cleanpowersf the same presentation to lafco we have

four or 5 slides charles. >> and we'll call that part of general manager report? >> we left it under cleanpowersf so you can actually do it here if you like. >> okay. >> commissioners what's your pleasure. >> let's hear it. >> thank you. >> thank you, commissioners charles sheen the communication manager for the cleanpowersf program we'll run through slides quickly and see if you have questions at the end. >> there we go. >> okay. perfect. >> so i wanted to give you a kind of an overview of the activities we've been engaged with and the community groups.

>> what is scheduled for the next month as you can see we started mid december with the programs and westwood park and in the southeast health fair most recently in the past saturday we tripled we were at the community fair in chinatown the bayview and the environment called bright and supervisor president breed district those 3 outreach teams doing different fence on saturday and going forward community groups and our goal is by the time we launch phase one a list that is two large but hit all the nonprofits and community groups all who has a meeting in the southeast part of city we want to get to them and do it citywide as well that doesn't show completely the slide it is our outreach

timeline the ones hidden valley high school in green is where we'll spend money to do paid advertising and mailers, etc. right through october 22nd some of the activities we've done the new brochure and the website and last week, we had a productive merging with a chat and chew a lunch meeting we handed out toll kits to all these offices they have a number of items for their education and publicist to talk about cleanpowersf and coming up on november 9th the fourth advocate meeting i can assure you state will be collaborative and welcome ovb he just left so meeting with them on november 9th and then once january hits we'll spend the money on january 4th the first

marital that goes out before the opted notices and following january 15th our first opt out no is to the post office and begin advertising in february and the second post office and march one the community groups and the nonprofit organizations in the southeast to do some visibility do leave letting and people coming home from work and door hangs and another way to reach out to people not just the mailbox and billboards and transit places and serve customers so we have is an aggressive schedule we want to be ambitious and make sure whether at the post office or a another the front door encourage you to sign up for super green

and, of course, make sure you stay in the program for good participation rates these are some of the same categories of stavkz on a timeline i'll run quickly through them i talked about the media and the education mailers and the opted notices and partnering with the folks at the fairs and festival we will start early next year door-to-door legislation and meeting with some of the larger businesses throughout the city to begin to educate them and so often them up when we get to them in phase two and 3 they're aware of the program and ready to participate that starting next year as well to the levy that is some of the citywide outreach we'll be doing while we're doing the specific

take into account for the southeast and again, some of the same things at the fairs and festivals and community groups trout the city and social media both paid and own media we control so again, a pretty comprehensive list i think this is my last slides some of the unspecific televised hoping e hopefully with a video from our manage and encouraging people to do that and go to the supervisors offices we talked about that the supervisor aid last week want them on camera signing up for super green for their personal message with the advocates meeting on the 9 and a couple of ideas i'll call out one an event where the price of admission is super green sign up some beverages non-alcoholic, of course, and some something to

stuff one was brought up in local agency formation commission make sure the hash tag for twitter is cleanpowersf and not sf water that didn't relate to twitter and need to make sure that cleanpowersf.org is much more prominent on the materials that are being handed out it is small when we had a meeting staff come to 350 sf less make that big so as many people as possible gets on to cleanpowersf.org and sign up there was concerns raised by the staff members we don't want to premutually sign up people that's not a problem they can go on a waiting list the last thing everyone m that watches me on

government tv and all those commissioners probably know i wear black t-shirts do a small super green shirts that is great (laughter). >> second. >> always asking for someone jason fried executive director for lafco commissioner vice president moran you mentioned the pg&e account number is an important thing i've been working with our staff and talking with the other people that are up and rubbing how to get around the projecting problem and out at an event people will not have their pg&e account i'm sorry, i don't carry mine smart phones they can get up but we're going to be discussing and marin sent the information how to potentially get around that information at a
