Thank you. I think you have also answered one of my questions that will this be the last time that we hear from julie. Unfortunately i will be out of town during the last two remaining meetings.

And we begin with two breaking stories. Secretary of state john kerry leaving geneva early this morning without a deal over Irans Nuclear program and information streaming in on that devastating typhoon. Officials now fear at least 10,000 are dead. They havent reached so many of the hardesthit area. Ginger zee is tracking this story. This may have been the strongest storm ever to hit land. It was fascinating, george, these images are just terrifying, horrifying. So many adjectives that you could use. Were starting to see the first aerial pictures. Heres what we know, we know that more than 9. 5 Million People were affected by this storm. We know that in some places that it did not just damage or destroy but wiped clean. Thats why some roads are still choked with debris. Transportation is shut down. We will not get confirmed answers for quite a while. So many people affected and were hearing stories from inside the zone, social media and otherwise, where they dont have water and they do
Back to 2000, the bond issue was 2002, but it was really rocky road. Everything was upside down. So giving us the data of 06, things have been rather smooth since then. Thank you so much for your service and devotions to the project and the we sip program and as you know, i have decided by granddaughter is going to be an engineer to model after you.

Commissioners, emilio cruz. I wanted to introduce this item specifically as you know miss julie lan bont will be leaving us soon and we have replaced her. Dan came to us from Montgomery Watson who was vicepresident and ran the Water Resources division. Since coming to us hes woshthd worked as the regional manager to parks and 1. 3 billion worth of work and the project that we are most in construction. Its a very good transition for us to move dan from the regional manager to the project director role and i hope that you will support him in his future role endeavors. Thank you. I think you have also answered one of my questions that will this be the last time that we hear from julie. Unfortunately i will be out of town during the last two remaining meetings.
