>> second. >> public comment on the minutes hearing >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? minutes passes. >> item 4 general public comment i see mr. da costa has public comment good afternoon. >> good afternoon, commissioners today i'll be speaking about the digesters i wanted the commissioner to pay attention including the attorney so there was a time when the people of san francisco were told that a san francisco public utilities commission would address the mitigation of 0 both at the time the clean drinking water and the wastewater and when the time came the commission at the time not to commission maybe commissioner caen was on the commission that decided okay. we are going to stick with the clean water and relegate the wastewater to the side this is what is happening if the bayview or the white communicated and was bombarded with a stench we get there would be a hue and cry the epa and the president of the united states maybe invited to take a sniff at what is happening this is continuing to happen in the bayview even though the digesters in district 10 see this stench what happened with the stop i'm not blaming them some of them maybe climate to the stench we want to know just the public wants to know if billions of are spent on the digesters what is happening a timeframe what really is happening when will the stench be addressed how will that be addressed when will the digesters come and y what year 2020 are 2030, 2040. >> now 5 percent of the community fund westbound set aside another one and $50 million you didn't notice directly but you know this indirectly 200 thousand something else is given to summary jobs and the community benefits whatnot one meaningful meeting about the digesters 0 so somebody can give us the timelines and address the stench the community has been adversely impacted our infants and children and youth and young adults bombarded with the stench as far as the incentive and some people don't care can we have this hearing with all the commissioners so he know what the hell is happening thank you very much. >> hearing none. >> next speaker, please. >> communications. >> you should have before you the communications any questions or comments on communications. >> any public comment on communications hearing none. >> next speaker, please. >> item 6 other commission business. >> commissioners and any business public comment on the business that we don't have (laughter) >> next speaker, please. >> item 7 is report of general manager. >> good afternoon mr. kelly is in denver attending a utility kwefrnsz part of board of directors for the nationality association of the clean water and two items in the general manager an update mr. richie. >> steve richie this will be a short update here's the typical storage chart i show a couple of things the hunters point reservoir is absolutely full we're doing water from hetch hetchy been 10 feet above full capacity so water bank is 73 percent for 4 hundred and 13 acres that guess as full as it will get from a storage this is the maximum level in storage this year that will go the main part of summer and to the fall on the precipitation font precipitation basically has leveled out maybe a freak storm here nor there but this picture will not change from october to november at this point and similarly with the snow pack that melted away we're just riding through the summer and looking forward to what next year might bring i've shown this available to the city and again, we ended up with one and 60 acres below the level that the water that the water bank is in now we have a lot more water than the past two or three years and not enough water to fill the system the one thing that changes is if the demand picture of this chart modified a little bit the black line it is dash dot dash dot our 10 percent level to the customers to achieve the purple doted line is the 2013 demand so this black target line is 10 percent off of that purple line up there as a general demand curve our demand is crept up to two hundred and 29 million gallons a day we're delivering to the customers in the ground water storage it operationally is into being so o going 0 san bruno and others city's in san francisco and with the popper ground water we are recovery our true demand is 200 and 25 thousand gallons it's creeping up into the summary it's a been fairly hot and not excited until about another 10 to 15 million gallons a day before there is a reason to be concerned about the level of demand and generally our customers are experiencing some rebound but not a heck of a lot. >> so want to summarize the lessons we've learned over the several years of dry water to the water management is dried-up to help us ride through this this drought is challenging due to the fact of population growth and living with that the agricultural changes out there people going to more pardon me crops and the internet social revolution you've seen pictures of it and the state government is much more active and continuing to do that the governors last emergency declaration carried through january of next year to he's expecting it to stay engaged on the drought we're all doing more reporting that is here to stay and in the legislation water use efficiency and water rights will be hot topics as people pay attention to the things into the drought for the next for seeable future and last but not least the drought is not over as far as you're concerned that's why we have to continue with conservatism but looking forward to next week we're not full we need to get full to poll out of the drought but every year is a dry stench i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> commissioners no questions. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> next general manager item. >> next is the cleanpowersf update by mr. haley. >> barbara hale for power we have more steady state kind of news how cleanpowersf continues to serve the customers we're at the 74 hundred active locations today our opt out percentage so 1.5 percent the last recorded anothers 3 percent opt out outing folks are still getting they're first utility bills i think that is part of influencing factor but 1.5 percent is a low opt out rate we have a steady 3 percent are participation our green option our supergreen for wfldz renewable that is that level for the last month and we continue to serve the customers if the hetch hetchy on the active for august one last meeting we had 4 hundred and 71 preenrollments and day it increased to 4 hundred and 97 with those folks signing up for supergreen over 70 percent of the residential customers are signing up for supergreen that's exciting in order to continue with the august enforcement and services in november we're continuing two our procurement planning efforts and the supply needed to meet that additional enrollment and coming to you on july 26th with an action item to make it clear we have authority to exceed the 50 megawatts assuming the supply is available that it meets the affordability and the phasing best practice and content practices you adopted back in december and the final message we're staffing up so i'm excited to say we've filed positions and conduct interviews and bringing on more analysts and staff to continue to increase our participation in the program and i wanted to say thank you for the support in the budget to get those positions lined up and also to say thank you to the hsr at the puc for the expeditious progress thank you i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> questions. >> real quick on the staffing do we foresee the majority or the extent of all the risk shuns will be employees. >> we're procuring some services both for the the back functionality the transfer with pg&e that's the service we've hired out for much line marin and sonoma. >> what's that consist of that is taking the meter read data and matching it up with the rates and presenting did information to pg&e in a way they can factor into their billing system a lot of data intensive it intensive work making sure the rates that are in the applied to the data are accurate in a form that pg&e's system will accept that's an area of expertise that notable energy has developed here in california they provide to service to direct assess customers in pg&e and california public utilities commission and other territories with the advent of community choice aggregation expanded into that area the other functionality we're procuring from them call center services we envision bringing that in house with our own customer service staff perform that function as a program grows and we get out of enrollment mode it is boom and bust and more of a steady state call services. >> i'd like to go - so thank you barbara for years we've been talking about the jobs component. >> yep. >> so i'd like to have a little bit more opportunity to have a bite of an a lot of community folks that participated with the support of whole finish i don't know we've had a lot of discussion about the clarifications the entities performing those functions elsewhere we probably could all pretty much agree that san francisco has been maybe a little bit differently in marin with respect to organized labor. >> absolutely on that point commissioner, you know, we have the civil service staff marin didn't they operate as a transbay joint powers authority and the civic rules don't apply to their compensation packages that being said working with the human resources director we got their organizational chart and job classification their compensation packages as we're build outing our program he know what the industry standard is full so we got that information from lancaster choice energy from sonoma and marin clean energy the other operating psa on this lancaster choice is a city department run aggregation program the only one's like us operating within the county civil service group we're doing that compatible it is - >> jason got up hopefully he'll touch on that i'm sure that's been deliberately and thoughtfully considered. >> not necessarily now. >> sure any other questions commissioner moran. >> on the volunteery sign up if someone goes on the sign up you're the customer will that be immediately or wait until the next roll out. >> not immediately but for the next roll out we're close the enrollments on august 1st and those customers on the list of august 1st will be served november 1st under the current plan. >> so july is a month that people want to get in the next roll out this is the month to do it. >> act now cleanpowersf.org good point. >> thank you. mr. fried jason fried, executive officer i hadn't going to speak but wringing up questions about the labor i want to remember that when we were launching this program in order to have the system we're currently using outside vendors would have taken time to build and develop have something today, we can use and get the program launched and bring in the services in house the contract allows us to bring the services in house the biggest problem the call center and the puc is not largo enough for november and needing an additional opt out center it is not big enough to actually do that i think your staff is in a - doing a good job i've been talking about with the how to grinning this in that is important to me as i - i was a 10 to one member and the same people that work why the call center i've definitely pushed for that and you asked that question i know your staff has a good plan to slowly get there at some point in time we need to build our own system to not need outdoor vendors that it takes time we need to test it with the pentagon system as soon as we test i'll not be surprised they'll make that harder to apply to the system i think we're going about it in the right approach and another some point bring a little bit of this work more in house the staff did a good job so i encourage you from time to time to question where it is at we're at a good spot we're getting the services we need while we're getting the program launched thank you thank you any comments on this item >> without objection i understand a member of the public has a general public comment if no objection we'll take that comment now. >> good afternoon. >> you how do you know. >> let me put my hat on. >> take your time. >> there we go. >> (laughter). i'm ann from friends of camp mather and the volunteer leader for the last week so the last week i hope to see you

and have country western music by way of so with my hat with the country western music event. >> thank you very much okay next item. >> is please read number 8. >> 8 did sewer system improvement quarterly update. >> through the financial schedule and talk about our recent chuchlts and updates on the projects going on and wrap up with workforce development and updated or update on the stakeholder outreach we have 70 projects underway 49 of them in planning and design and 5 in awards and 10 in communication things are moving this is phase one representation we see each quarter and currently 11.4 percent that is going to kick up as we get more into construction. >> this is our progress for the phase one again and as of the close of the last quarterly report the close is march so several treatments of the projects are into construction and d c y is the next one followed in a year and a half by another project and like to always go back to the early implementation the green infrastructure 3 in construction the reason the sunset looks funny we're doing a design build and working with the department of public works and designing the blocks while their building the previous blocks and trying to keep that running in the area of sunset mission and valencia or less awarded and under construction over the next couple of months visitacion valley the wiggle part two and chinatown green alley will be going out and staring the reasons end of this year, the last two are yosemite and the beach some of the achievements that was a big list getting to you and getting through that march 22 meeting where we established our baseline scope schedule and budget that's the basis for the detailed scheduled now the detailed loaded schedules and those are the reports on a quarterly basis and seeing me in august i believe when i come back for the next quarterly report a little bit less of a lag time as we issue those documents and part may be able i'll r you'll hear 2, 3, 4 from the 10 merging the agreement was extended to the ssip project for contracts over may 10th that is exciting that lays out the established fraction for the project and scheduled a - this is something that will be evolving as we egg still using that project one of the alternative analysis phase projects designed for levels of services for performance comparing the alternatives for the bottom line. >> there's a lot of work with the ceqa progress and it will be continuing through november 2017 we have advertised the r f x an $800 million for the general contractor and gastrogoing through that selection of that contractor over the next 6 months the head works project is moving forward that construction general contractor selection has been made and awarded at the commission their 0 moving through the 35 percent and both projects are in parallel to the arts commission to talk about the approach how to approach this as incorporate the art and how we're looking this focus so we can have the best project delivered for the neighbors after we're complete and d c s a advertised and a report was delivered to a - a few weeks ago those are projects in construction we actually have 10 projects many more now are our at the plant since this is existing and momentum things are going out and the next phase a few green projects since the flood control projects will be going out with the sewer improvements projects we're working with other agencies and in some cases the mta and the other departments and replacing a sewer line that is old as part of a project lead by another department and here i want to focus a little bit time this is something that is pretty exciting we're working to judiciously with the economic would it be fair to say to provide real small business and job opportunity to san franciscans prairie from the southeast community and have 19 active contracts 10 are professional services and 9 are construction and the lbe the impact we've been able to have on the small businesses is even more permanent or preponderate 2/3rd's of the sew contractions have been awarded to one and 5 lbe's that is one and 64 million dollars of work this is substantial our local hiring ordinance requires a percentage of workers be resident of san francisco so through 2016 this is to range between 20 and thirty percent for the ssip we've applied this so work on 38 percent of the projects we've berry been speeding the projects and this is equated for the combined $6 million in wages and benefits on over 60 thousand hours district 10 and 4 and 9 worked on this the san francisco percent of the hours and my colleague wake up u came up with that idea of the craft hours as of march 31st, 2016 over one and 60 though craft hours by 5 hundred workers and earned $10 million in wages this shows the distribution of where the workers are and where the residents are and primarily down from hunters point the mission, the sunset as you can see the majority of work so we're having a positive impact on the local communities one of these is that nearly 40 percent of the hours on the ssip nearly 40 percent have been worked by san franciscans and those residents have earned almost $6 million in wages and benefits the opportunity for entry-level workers to begin a criteria in the construction work and the benefits is compounded the result is nearly 4 out of 579 percent of the hours on the projecting are being worked by san franciscans apprentices this is very good i think some of the jobs get bigger that will take more and more of a list to stay ahead of this this will be challenging some of the things we're trying to establish a foot hold our stakeholder engagement a lot of work with the general contractors and standing room only event over one hundred contractors came with an lobe certification how to get a lbe state certification some the projects will mta and those opportunities bring contractors together so there is networking we talk about our upcoming projects and get them ready and training classes how to make bids and maximize the interest that we can possibly for our contracts coming up so this is an exciting thing and again folks have led that - we're in the fist year of our student internship into the ssip there are 23 they start in high school and work with through college that is something near and dear to my heart i started as an tenor that was a lange and many of the folks that are now leaders here i like to see people interested in being engineers sometimes they're interested in other things at least we give them the skills and closer they maybe hires in the water systems in the future and this is a picture there were not that many kids 5 kids (laughter) that was before some of the schools gotten out but hopefully, this give us a sense interests a lot going on and you're going to be seeing more projects coming to fruition and more work going forward. >> commissioner courtney. >> thank you karen honestly were i don't know of it's something we entertain with respect to the workforce i appreciate the workpiece we appreciate that is rated towards various professions and classifications at the you utilize and with the contractors and some of the 09 genders with respect to the trade down the road anticipate a change in economic conditions and so you have a lot of folks who are in those communities not necessarily district 4 i - that's good news they can't necessarily intern into a apprenticeship and a lot of them are not ready for apprenticeship and because we've director nolan done it puc has done it and various departments there are ways undertook the invoice of workforce to prepare folks from those communities that point to be prepared we're looking for on avenue to the clear pathway and i'd like to hear more about is like barbara was saying we're stacking i'll talk to the city we've been talking about workforce development i want to get meat on the bones what way to staff up what classifications looking to fulfill with respect to the folks that are the architect of a workforce development with the connection to our programs and what will be our target audience and you know we're doing it on a smaller scale i believe we have age opportunity to create a pipeline of workers one real critical mentorship piece that is missing we'll dedicate that out to nonprofits and not done in a consistent way we basically fail with respect to the community folks we're trying to provide opportunity to i'm looking for more robust conversations on the next report on the workforce development pieces specifically the preapprenticeship piece and more specifically with respect to the actual construction industry work in the field. >> if i can interject this is a classic puc issue not on the sewer system improvement project but the utility workers of the future and very eloquently articulated you know what the issue we need to create that pipeline so what i'd like to do a talk to the internal revenue who has the elements and talk about coming back and doing more comprehensive project to you if that's acceptable. >> never mind. >> i did for go a few things the team is working with city build and building in the community-based organizations with the pipeline in mind that will be great to follow the leadership juliette thank you. >> so if we could schedule that pretty sure we're in summary. >> we'll schedule that and get back to you thank you. >> thank you, commissioner. >> and those - you've identified the challenge of keeping up with that so that kind of discussion is important. >> that's been go diligence and ownership to make that happen and to work with - to solve the problems and fill them with local residents a culture change. >> talk about the community outreach not the workforce but mr. da costa raised those in the quarterly report and dig counsel and find the answers and then some were in the presentation today - as. >> we focused on the bio project but we are always talking about the program as a whole start with an umbrella of puc and the ssip we do a lot of small business outreach our folks were at hunters point cac and done the webinars with the with the outreach we were working with the southeast on a monthly brass that was by abrams and talking about all of our ssip projects and connecting them together when i start to tally it i think we probably had 50 to 70 meetings over the last year and a half maybe i'll if the chair and you took the words out of my mouth to provide a write-up to - it is an esteem amount when we had a metro quest public survey so if people can't attend the meeting get input and a lot of workshops that format has worked better than attending a meeting so we have a 4 hour window for the staff to explain the issues surrounding this so i'm happy to provide a comprehensive report because it is. >> we're trying to catch dog patch and castro hill and bayview hunters point and pull in the populations of people i think staff is doing a job but happy to provide the correspondence to give you an idea and best further - >> one of the things just to ask folks to think about is this is a huge program very complicated and in the complexity 0 losses site of basic things for the comments number one there is owner that's a real simple problem to see it is a smell not a simple problem but identify that as a problem is something that anyone passing talbot neighborhood and the frustration how long it is taken to manage you're absolutely right the program was put on hold and as a result we had to spend a lot of money to do do repairs that do mean anything to the fix those repairs give people false hope so what i'm thinking there is despite of complexity there is fairly basic concepts that need to be dealt with anyway and i just like some thought to be given you know in the future report and come back to the committee how to address those surface level concerns not the deeper dive but the stuff where we're concerned about. >> i will look at that. >> i'm hoping we can get feedback to stay on top of the investment decisions. >> we have great results in caesar chavez and some ones are wrapping up this is where we should get more you know wet weather wet weather. >> yeah. but we'll continue to be able to get that information and caesar chavez is one i can certainly provide that up you to that was very good and baker did well. >> that would be great to start to unpack the metabolics and the opportunities to the water retention and diversion and any other benefits that we you know are hoping for in that prom we're participating in the national ground level certification program it is getting that even training for portfolio for the maintenance workers this type of thing a national standard because it is a fairly new area of work we have an opportunity to get something that could be national standard so people can know it is a mobile skill and and then across the country. >> i heard interest in having you come before us more rent control i don't know about every month but i see you are smiling. >> smiling. >> maybe every two months it is such a big program and piece to keep track of i would suggest that is the yaerl update this is produced and takes a while to put together if you want a monthly update we can do something along those lines. >> that would be fun and have a regular program. >> we get those clean power updates that make sense. >> i'll focus 10 minutes on making sure the communications type of thing is rotated. >> okay that would be great unless objection. >> no, i be given the nature of those procedures that is easier to deal with small fifths and not hang up quarterly. >> thank you thank you any public comments on the report. >> hearing none. >> next speaker, please. >> item 9 are considered to be routine may be acted upon by a single roll call vote of the commission. there will be no separate discussion of these items unless

next speaker, please. >> item 10 has been removed from the agenda and reconcealed scheduled for the next item and item lovingly approve the 5 year revoking license to the portion of sfpuc in hillsborough california. >> good afternoon, commissioners assistant real estate director we're proposing the work in the right-of-way as part of pepper water project that involves the installation of a new 12 inch pipeline to replace an existing line it connects to our value line the scope of work in the property economists of disconnecting the old line and removing it from our property once in service the new line they're constructing the 12 inch line is located within the public right-of-way the town of hillsborough planning department issued a categorical exemption from ceqa and the puc was responsible agency concurred with that determination the sfpuc proposed to issue the license with no in accordance with the 2015 real estate guidelines approved by that commission after that item was placed on today's agenda they removed the structure with the band in place allowing for a 6 month term rather than a 5 month term and thankfully the resolution gives of these general manager the authority to reduce the term because such an amendment is in the best interest of the city and not increase the obligations and all the terms and conditions of the license remain the same any questions. >> questions. >> is there a motion to approve the tefrmz and authorize the general manager to exude the lease. >> second. >>
