Item 8, executive directors report. Good afternoon, commissioners. Michael martin, Deputy Director of real estate and development. I have been serving as acting director while Elaine Forbes continues to do important work for the citys covid19 experience starting from tomorrow ill step away for family leave and we will have an acting executive director role. And over to katie. Todays report has two items. First is an update on the citys covid19 response. Significant progress has been made at the seawall lot 344 backlands, trailer r. V. Site that we discussed with you at your last meeting. I want to extend great thanks to all of the hard work put in on the infrastructure which was managed by the maintenance and engineering divisions in collaboration with our city agency partners. Port staff has negotiated final terms of an m. O. U. That incorporates the results of last weeks discussion or two weeks ago discussion. And we expected that document will be executed and residents will take occupancy later this week. And Community Outreach has begonbegunand they will work wif with interested neighbors and members of the port southern water advisory committee. At piers 32, 33, the sfgov site has continued to operate and has walkin appointments, but testing is extremely critical to emerging from the shelterinplace orders successfully and were proud to see the success of that site and the number of tests performed. As of today the port has seen 63 deployments of Disaster Service workers on a range of tasks. And due to repeat deployments this represents 51 staff. That is 20 of the ports workforce that have answered the call to combat the impacts of this crisis. And i am extremely proud of the port engagement and we look forward to answering further calls as we battle the effects of the pandemic. And the second item of my report, i wanted to update the Port Commission on the Farmers Market operated by qoisa. The Food Distribution system is greatly challenged by the crisis but providing opportunities for people to obtain fresh foods but keeping themselves and their immune systems healthy has rarely been as important as it is now. And one response to this challenge, a popup pantry for seawall lot 377 is on todays agenda but the Farmers Market is a longstanding opportunity that many depend on for fresh food. This is a time of transition generally are the appeal to customers included the opportunity to sample merchandise and linger while browsing. As with many retailers its taken type to ax adopt to the protocols. And qoisa is taking their practices very seriously and working with the department of Public Health and the department of food and agriculture to make sure theyre meeting restrictions and are making it easier for San Francisco residents to access fresh food. And they have published and implementing rules for sellers that minimize the contact among the people and the produce and its triple the number of handwashing stations and offers contactless Curbside Pickup for produce boxes. In response to new San Francisco department of Public Health guidance issued last friday, staff have worked with licensing Additional Space to allow operators to spread out further. A strategy that we have been hearing a lot from a number of food purveyors. We have regulatory reviews and negotiations and expect the license to be issued so that the space can be used this saturday, may 16th. Port staff will continue to work with qaisa to have all adapt to new rules over time and so we can avoid outbreaks while avoiding food to residents and businesses to keep farmers afloat. That concludes my report. Thank you. We will open up the phone to comments. indiscernible . Thank you, president brandon. We will open up the queue for anyone on the phone to make Public Comment on the executive directors report. And the conference is in question and answer mode. You will be entered into the system in the order that you dial 1,0, and the system will let you know when your line is open and others will wait on you until your line is open. Comments are limited to three minutes per person. Dial 1, 0, if you wish to make Public Comment. Thank you. Do we have anyone on the phone . Ill open up the line now. You have one question remaining. Hello . Hello, caller, are you there . Can you hear me now . I can hear you now. I am sorry, i had my mute button off. And calling on you indiscernible a distributor from fox. And i appreciate the fact that the Farmers Market is so important for the people of San Francisco to get their food from at this point and i know that theres tons of Food Shortages everywhere. And were catching a little bit of fish. Were not really catching a lot yet but i imagine that we will catch over 400,000 fish this year, and that will change in june and july. Id like to talk to you about the processors and the first receivers and the distributors down at pier 45, and it says in my lease that i cant sell to the public. Because im a wholesale fish buyer. And i dont really want to change that because whenever this virus thing is all over, id like it to go back to the way that it always was where i would sell to the distributors and theyd sell to the restaurants and the markets and Everything Else. And i just service the boats. You know, we take care of the ice machine and wed like buying hundreds of thousands of pounds in a normal year. And to take care of that and let the other guys who do distribution. And i think that its so important what how important you guys think that the Farmers Market is that you consider that proteins that the fish guys are doing at the other end of the dock, and you talk about deferring and deferring isnt going to help us out. Most of us lost, you know, 70 , 80 of our business. I mean, i watched the crab prices go from 4. 50 down to 2. 550 when this thing first started. Im watching a lot of the boats arent going to their buyers and theyre going to the Farmers Markets and stuff, you know, trying to make a living. And i dont blame them. Because the food pipeline is broken. And, you know, you have seen on the news that its broken for the farmers. Well, the distribution is broken for the fishermen too. So if we could get consideration like we got during the crab disaster now, that would really help people to sleep and all of the distributors down on 45 to be kept alive. I appreciate you taking time to listen to me. Thank you so much. I appreciate you calling. Is there anyone else . At this time there are no further members of the public on the phone for Public Comment. Thank you. Seeing no more callers on the phone, Public Comment is now closed. Commissioner gilman . Oh, mike, i wanted to just thank you for the report and the update about the Farmers Market since ive had some inquirys from the public who wanted to make sure that social distancing and wash stations were being put in place. So i want to say i appreciate the update. I also want to thank the member of the public who gave Public Comment and i hope that at some point that the port could explore whether we could do temporary adjustments to leases to allow direct connections to the public as the pandemic continues in a way where the distribution lines are disrupted. That is something that we should take into consideration. Thank you. Thank you. Commissioner . No comment. Thank you for the report. Thank you. Commissioner . I have no comment. Im glad to hear about the Farmers Market and, of course, i want to commend the port staff again for pitching in so well with the citys crisis right now and i think that we can all be proud of the efforts that were trying to do to help, whether its the homeless or the food or the Farmers Market, but to do our best to alleviate the pain and suffering that this terrible virus has inflicted upon all of us. So thank you. Thank you. Mike, thank you so much for stepping in for elaine and i want to again congratulate you on the new addition to your family.

The presentation regarding the United States army corps of engineers and the San Francisco flood reresiliencey study, and formerly the storm risk study. And authorization to amend the costsharing agreement with the army corps of engineers San Francisco district dated september 5, 2018, for the San Francisco waterfront Flood Resiliency study. Okay, brad, take it away. Brad, are you on or lyndee . Brad, are you speaking but muted perhaps . indiscernible . Hello . Can you hear me now . Yes. Im so sorry. I wasnt being heard before. Good afternoon president brandon, Vice President adams, commissioners. My name is brad finson, im the ports waterfront resilience director. Im here on behalf of the court staff and Consultant Team that is working on the army corps of engineers Flood Resiliency study. We have a new member of the team, kelly capone is the project manager for the flood study. And she comes to us by way of San FranciscoPublic Utilities commission. Kelly worked at the port during the 34th americas cup, helping the port to obtain the very complicated permits for that effort. So shes quite familiar with the port. She joins lyndee lowe, the lead planner for the flood study, and matt wickens, the engineering lead. And on the Consultant Team we have summer bundy, who is the task lead. And its a very talented team. Next slide, please. So we acknowledge the impact of covid19 and the new challenges faced daily by San Franciscoians, including the disproportionate impact to some key Waterfront Resilience Program constituencies, including Small Business owners, port tenants and bay residents and families with Young Children as we often see on our zoom meetings. The waterfront is a source of strength for the city. Were very grateful at the staff level for voters having approved proposition a which is the primary Funding Source for the program. And were keenly aware of our fiscal responsibility. I want the commission and the public to know that work has continued unabated on the program during shelterinplace. And we think that resilience planning remains vital to San Franciscos future. This is the draft vision statement for the Resilience Program to create a safe, equitable, sustainable and inspiring waterfront. Next slide, please. The focus of todays presentation is the army corps of engineers flood study. That study is governed by an agreement between the army corps and the port, that the Port Commission approved in 2018. When the agreement was entered, we considered that this would be a typical Army Corps Flood study. The federal rules are to have 3 million in three years with three levels of federal review. Weve learned that this is a very complicated urban waterfront and were studying the entire 7. 5 miles of the port. The port and the army corps staff think that this study will take five years and 20 million, including a 10 million federal contribution to complete. That requires a waiver from the assistant secretary of the army. And it also would require an amendment to the feasability costsharing agreement, and i will return to this later in the presentation. Next slide, please. And the ports resilience efforts are nesting within the citys broader efforts. The commission had a presentation about the hazards and the Climate Resilience plan. That includes a port chapter and that plan is headed to the board of supervisors for approval in the coming weeks. The department of the environment is leading the citys very aggressive Climate Action strategy, and the San FranciscoPlanning Department has just completed and published a Sea Level Rise vulnerability and consequences analysis, which has been very helpful to this study. Next slide, please. The adaptation for the Waterfront Program is to convey the phased nature of the work over the ports jurisdiction. We refer to it as strengthen, adapt and envision. The strengthen phase is really the focus on how the commission will determine how to spend proposition a bond funds to address life safety projects and improve the citys disaster response. Really focused on seismic risks and flood risk where we can as well. Weve heard from the public that they want to maintain the current waterfront for as long as possible. So staff intend to develop a plan and adapt a plan for the Port Commission review that looks at how the gap occurred in the waterfront for as long as possible, addressing those seismic and flood risk port wide. And we also need to envision what a future waterfront would look like, what a future shoreline would look like that is resilient to water levels that we expect in 2100 and beyond. Next slide, please. Weve been very active with community and Stakeholder Engagement. We had our last Bayview Committee meeting on january 30th at the southeast facility with a focus on Program Goals for the waterfront. On march 4 at atwater tavern we had a mixer for mission bay and Mission Creek area. That was our last inperson engagement before shelte shelterinplace and so we paused inperson meetings and the team is focusing on Online Engagement through a variety of modes. Its a very creative effort to keep the public informed about whats going on in the Resilience Program and to make sure that were continuing to garner public feedback. Next slide, please. So weve been documenting that feedback from the public. All of the neighb
