Item 4 report of the general manager. Good afternoon acting general manager. General manager herrera asked me to update this board on information that has been in the news. I imagine you have all seen the coverage about the algae in San Francisco bay . We thought it might be helpful to update this body on steps we are taking to reduce nitrogen in the bay. We are in compliance with concern regulations and working closely with regulators as they assess the need for stricter rules. The puc is taking steps to help reduce nitrogen in the bay. This is the complex issue. That we have been collaborating on for over a decade Broad Coalition of scientists, engineers and policy makers studying the bay to understand how many factors including light. High temperatures and nutrient loads are affecting the health. The Research Indicates loads which start from multiple source the bay areas 37 Wastewater Agency dids not cause bloom you but may play a role on the impact of the blooms. Most wastewater plants are not required to remove nitrogen and many cannot do so without major upgrades. The wastewater agencies provided 14 Million Dollars for research to help determine when and how nitrogen removal may be necessary we have been draegsz nitrogen in the became doing this in 3 ways now. We are making longterm investments like building a new state of the art Treatment Plant that will include full stream nitrogen removal complete in the 2026. Piloting changes to the treatment process to decrease nitrogen levels during the dry weather science. Look to repurposing existing tank in other assets at our main wastewater plant they can be upgradeed remove nitrogen. I want to clear up confusion that has been part of the public conversation around upon nitrogen reduction. Recycled water does not fix nitrogen in the bay. Recycled water is a local supply used for irrigation and toilet flushing developing recycled Treatment Facilities allows communities to diversify Water Supplies and conserve Drinking Water we are constructing the west side recycle wash at ocean side plant produce recycled water for Golden Gate Park and other irrigation use. Recycled water is not a solution to the nitrogen problem in the bay the nitrogen left over from the recycle fiteration process does not disappear temperature need to bes treated or discharged. I want to note that san frap puc is working with regulatoros strategies. We are willing tooshg dap in the nitrogen removal requirements regulations evolve. Require long planning. Construction of new infrastructure in billions of dollars in regional investment. Were prepared do our part t. Is not something we can do alone. Rate pay and partners and federal colleagues working to make the investments needed. Thank you. Comments or questions. Can we have Public Comment.

With this vote, body voting that once we could have it. We would put it in so this is in but has nothing to do with the price the social Impact Partnership is not an additive price temperature is following through and putting the requirement in that were held up a bit during that process.
