There are systems in the building that you may remember that i mentioned this earlier, a fire depression and the emergency lights when the power goes out and the emergency power and these systems called evacuation rescue and recovery, and their survivebility is critical if the building is in a crisis mode. What they did was go back and look at every single space that had a critical system in it, the building is long and this is one floor and all of those little colored dots represent a critical space. Each one of those spaces therefore, in this final design phase was given additional attention, a better door, a better frame, a better wall and a better way to get in and out so it will survive. If it survives, the system that it supports will survive and that is a safer building. And one of those systems where there is an investment was in the Fire Suppression system, the building was quite large and we opted to have an Additional Fire pump included, the building is five stories essentia
Labs, sandia, argon mit, specific northwest, highly classified information, managed carefully by the federal government, not disbursed into the public domain, but because the threat for this as increased that information is now made more available and for 2011, rva assessment took advantage of that disclosure and the design was enhanced. What did that mean . We modified the intakes and added filter to take stuff out of the air. We improved the building perimeter, we have the event to close off portions of the building if there is an event outside of it, it does not get into the building with the same level of opportunity. We protected the security operation and Fire Command Centers with additional filtration, why . We expect the people there to manage an event. They need to stay there longer than anyone else to get everyone else out. So they need to have an additional protection to stay longer. And we had to install infrastructure and conduet and wire that at best this could have been
You are the city of the golden gate bridge, you are the city of the transamerica tower and the great sports team and rail cars, but the executive director asked us to look at the future. What will San Francisco be like when this Transit Center is done . That will have a new very significant building and a new very significant Transit Center and if you look at that when we are finished that is the new San Francisco. This is a new downtown region. And so, what we are really talking about in the rva and what we are asking the design team to do is protect the final buildout. What was the tjfpa response to the request for the excuse me the rva. Mention this safety and security part of the program from its inception. They have retained a series of world class design and engineering risk professional and they were peer reviews that were engaged in by the individuals for the extreme knowledge and the explosive management and seismic management, this is not a single individual or a single firms
Past five years, five years ago, the information from the sources such as our national labs, sandia, argon mit, specific northwest, highly classified information, managed carefully by the federal government, not disbursed into the public domain, but because the threat for this as increased that information is now made more available and for 2011, rva assessment took advantage of that disclosure and the design was enhanced.

Conceived of in the conceptual phase. One of the last areas of mitigation is this chemical and biological release, design has been greatly informed over the past five years, five years ago, the information from the sources such as our national labs, sandia, argon mit, specific northwest, highly classified information, managed carefully by the federal government, not disbursed into the public domain, but because the threat for this as increased that information is now made more available and for 2011, rva assessment took advantage of that disclosure and the design was enhanced.
