Legacy energy source. Senator udall of new mexico and i have an amendment that will close a loophole in federal Energy Policy. I want my colleagues to know, and i think they do, of my long support for renewable and alternative sources of energy and so i agree with the aims of the murkowskimachin murkowskiy bill. The amendment that senator udall and i have introduced is the same as the bipartisan bill we introduced last week. The title of that bill is the fair return for public lands act.

Just to touch on one real briefly, a prohibition on natural gas and new construction has been discussed. I think that is worthwhile considering, given our cas disar prone areas of th

And those were mostly schools, fire and other community centers. Not housing sites. Commissioner mar and do you know what the status is right now of moving forward with on on installation at any of these sites . The only one that im aware of from my conversations with the sfpuc staff who work on these projects is at fergg and marshall high where theyre piloting it. And thats the only one that im aware of thus far. Commissioner mar great. And then im just trying to understand the benefit of these installations so at the site, would that provide backup energy just to the school or would it serve a broader a broader geographic range of people that might lose power during a power outage .
