Expressed interest and are considering participating and then we certainly have, you know, many managers who are engaging with Portfolio Companies around climate risk but perhaps not formally through that initiative. Okay. And then my other concern is, we talked about diversity and i like what youve done in terms of the work around that. Do we use that same [indiscernible] in terms of rps and other things, do we really apply the sfers criteria for the type of diversity were looking for across the board, including [indiscernible] and other sectors . I cant fully comment on that. I guess what i can say is, you know, there is proposition 209 in place in california i know. Thats why i i know. Up to a vote, thats in november.

Ask the public to participate remotely by writing to the board or leaving a voicemail message. For all comments received in advance of the meeting we have received and we appreciate these comments. While Technology Allows us to hold these meetings via teleconference, it may not be as seamless as it would like to be. There will be gaps in some airtime, staff at times the staff transitions between the speakers and the callers. Know that we are doing the best that we possibly can and we ask for your understanding and patience as we are all learning this new way of working together. A reminder to the Board Members to mute themselves to minimize the background noise. Board members will have to remember to unmute themselves to comment. Again, were going to ask everyone to be patient as we make these adjustments. Madam secretary, roll call, please. Clerk [roll call] we do have a quorum. President bridges .

Madam clerk, are there any communications . Clerk yes. The minutes of this meeting will reflect that during the covid19 Health Emergency, Board Members participated in this meeting remotely through Video Conference to the same extent as though physically present.

Therefore, we hope that members of the public are able to take advantage of the following opportunities to be able to communicate with the board of supervisors or to be able to access this meeting and participate remotely. We are happy
