LONDON N. BREED MAYOR OFFICE OF THE MAYOR Septembe'r 16, 2019 The Honorable Garrett L. Wong Presiding Judge, Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco 400 McAllister Street, Room 008 San Francisco, CA 941024512 Dear Judge \X/ong, In accordance with Penal Code 933 and 933.05, the following is in response to the 2018-2019 Civil Grand Jury Report, Ad Before I I Too Late: Agrarian/J; Expand and Eli/Jame Oar fig/59mm?? Emcigmgl l-l?yafergutem. We would like to thank the members of the 2018?201 9 Civil Grand Jury for their interest in disaster preparedness and in improving the resiliency of our critical public safety infrastructure to provide robust emergency ?re?ghting to all communities in San Francisco. San Francisco continues to improve our City?s resiliency each day through our ongoing investments in public infrastructure and equipment. Our Capital Planning Program coordinates much of these investments by conducting strategic long?term planning across major programs and projects, including the. Emergency Fire?ghting Water System and Earthquake Safety and Emergency Response (ESER). The ESER bonds approved by voters in 2010 and 2014 have funded improvements to cisterns, pipelines, and critical public facilities that improve the City?s ability to respond in emergencies and to ?ght fires. In addition, through the City?s annual budgeting process, we will continue weighing resources to improve public safety and the operational readiness and emergency response capabilities of our departments. For example, our most recently adopted FY 2019?20 budget includes funding for ?ve new hose tenders to replace and enhance the Fire Department?s aging equipment. In March 2020, the voters of San Francisco will once again vote on a new $628.5 million ESER bond measure. Included in the proposal is an investment of an additional $153.5 million for the EmergenCy Fire?ghting Water System. We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Civil Grand Jury report ?ndings and recommendations. Moving forward, and as appropriate, the City plans to analyze many of the recommendations as part of our next 10?Year Capital Plan. A detailed response from the Mayor?s Of?ce, City Administrator?s Office, Fire Department, Public Utilities Commission, and the Department of the Environment is attached. Each signatory prepared its own responses and is able to respond to questions related to its respective part of the report. 1 DR. CARLTON B.

Recommendation Response Text Too Late: Aggressively Expand and Enhance Our High-Pressure Emergency Fire?ghting Water System [July 17, 2019] The City does not have a timeline to fund and complete development of a hlgh~pressure, multi- sourced, seismicaily safe emergency water supply for all parts of the City, including poor neighborhoods that historically have not been as well protected as the downtown business district and many richer neighborhoods. The EFWS was built after the 1906 earthquake, and its location, primarily in the northeast portion of San Francisco. corresponds to the location of the majority ofthe city's population at that time. Since 2010. the SFPUC, SFFD, and Public Works have made critical improvements to the existing EFWS system. Expanding the EFWS prior to ensuring that the existing EFWS is resilient and reliable would have contradicted best engineering practices. The SFPUC and SFFD are developing plans that would implement a resilient, robust, and redundant potable EFWS torthe Westside of San Francisco. The potable EFWS that is being developed and analyzed would propose the best method for bringing a robust and resilient high-pressure ?re?ghting water system to the Western neighborhoods in San Francisco that is capable of providing water to the SFFD ?re?ghters at the high-pressure needed for ?re?ghters to combat large ?res after a seismic event, and is likely to include over 14 miles of new EFWS pipelines and potentially two new pump stations likely to be supplied by four water sources. The SFPUC and potable EFWS is being designed in a manner that allows for agility and the flexibility to add new technologies and water sources, and in a manner that allows the piping network to be extended in the future to serve additional areas.

General Manager, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission [September 15, 2019] Disagree, partially While it is true that the SFPUC and SFFD are studying four potential water sources proposed to supply a potable EFWS on the west side ofthe City, which are not located north of Golden Gate Park, which by no means would reduce the proposed system?s resiliency, reliability, performance. or ability to provide abundant high pressure water for fire suppression to the Richmond District after a seismic event. San Francisco is unique in that there are 11in?city reservoirs, with a total water capacity of approximately 413,000,000 gallons. Additionally, Lake Merced, also located within City Limits, has an additional approximately 1,000,000,000 gallons. The potable EFWS system for the Westside of San Francisco that is being developed and analyzed would provide that the new EFWS pipeline in the Sunset and Richmond Districts could be supplied from four sources of water at two locations. The first two water sources could be supplied to the EFWS pipeline via a 30,000 gallon per minute pump station in the vicinity of Lake Merced. The two sources being studied for this pump station are Lake Merced, which has a water supply of approximately one on gallons, and a 60" seismicaily resilient Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System pipeline.

General Manager. San Francisco Public Utilities Commission [September 15, 2019] Disagree, partially Fire Response Areas were utilized by SFPUC and SFFD in the planning study (5-199. This study divided the City into areas based on those de?ned by the SFFD for initial alarm response and were called Fire Response Areas Probable ?re demands were developed for each FRA using 1000 sets of fire demands generated by Charles Scawthorn, using a Monte Carlo analysis of ?re ignitions and fire growth using the ground motions from the design earthquake [7.8 magnitude). The ?re were generated using methods similar to those used for the Community Action Plan for Seismic Safety (CAMS) study (ATC 2010). The ?re Ignitions subsequently were used to develop water demands that were aggregated into the likely fire demands for each FRA. The water supplies for each FRA were developed using the reliability modeling tool developed at Comeil University by Professori'homas D. O'Rourke. GIRAFFE performs internal Monte Carlo analysisto damage pipes in the system for multiple scenarios. The water supplies developed by GIRAFFE were aggregated into the likely water supplies for each FRA. It should be noted that the likely water supplies for each FRA assumed no water from the Ci y's municipal water system which is quite conservative and highly unlikely even aftera seismic event.

General Manager, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission [September 15, 2019) Disagree. partially The EFWS was built after the 1906 earthquake, and its location, primarily in the northeast portion of San Francisco, corresponds to the location of the majority of the city?s population at that time. Since 2010, the SFPUC, SFFD, and Public Works have made critical Improvements to the existing EFWS system. Expanding the EFWS prior to ensuring that the existing EFWS is resilient and reliable would have contradicted best engineering practices. The SFPUC and SFFD are developing plans that would implement a resilient, robust. and redundant potable EFWS for the Westside ofSan Francisco. The potable EFWS that is being developed and analyzed would propose the best method for bringing a robust and resilient high-pressure ?re?ghting water system to the Western neighborhoods In San Francisco that is capable of providing water to the SFFD ?re?ghters at the high-pressure needed forfirefighters to combat large fires after a seismic event, and is likely to include over 14 miles of new EFWS pipelines and potentially two new pump stations likely to be supplied by lourwater sources. The SFPUC and SFFD's potable EFWS is being designed in a manner that allows for 33 ty and the ?exibility to add new technologies and water sources, and In a manner that allows the piping network to be extended in the future to serve additional areas.

Chief, San Francisco Fire Department [September 15, 2019] Disagree. partially While It is true that the SFPUC and SFFD are studying four potential water sources proposed to supply a potable EFWS on the west side of the City, which are not located north of Golden Gate Park, which by no means would reduce the proposed system's resiliency, reliability, performance, or ability to provide abundant high pressure water for ?re suppression to the Richmond District after a seismic event. San Francisco is unique In that there are 11in-city reservoirs, with a total water capacity of approximately 413,000,000 gallons. Additionally, Lake Merced, also located within City Limits, has an additional approximately 1,000,000,000 gallons. The potable EFWS system for the Westside of San Francisco that is being developed and analyzed would provide that the new EFWS pipeline in the Sunset and Richmond Districts could be supplied from four sources of water at two locations. The ?rst two water sources could be supplied to the EFWS pipeline via a 30,000 gallon per minute pump station in the vicinity of Lake Merced. The two sources being studied pump station are Lake Merced, which has a water supply of approximately one billion gallons, and a 60" seismically resilient SFPUC Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System pipeline. The proposed potable EFWS also Is analyzing the inclusion of a second 30,000 gallons per minute pump station R6 [for rare] The SFPUC, the SFFD and the SF Department of the Environment should study adding salt-water pump statlons to improve the redundancy of water sources, especially on the west side.

Chief, San Francisco Fire Department [September 15, 2019] Disagree, partially Fire Response Areas were utilized by SFPUC and SFFD in the planning study (LS-199. This study divided the City into areas based on those de?ned by the SFFD for initial alarm response and were called Fire Response Areas (FRAs). Probable ?re demands were developed for each FRA using 1000 sets offire demands generated by Charles Scawthom, using a Monte Carlo analysis of ?re Ignitions and fire growth using the ground motions from the design earthquake (7.8 magnitude). The fire ignitions were generated using methods similar to those used for the Community Action Plan for Seismic Safety study 2010). The ?re ignitions subsequently were used to develop water demands that were aggregated into the likely fire demands for each FRA. The water supplies for each FRA were developed using the reliability modeling tool GIRAFFE, developed at Cornell University by Professor Thomas D. O'Rourke. GIRAFFE performs internal Monte Carlo analysis to damage pipes in the system for multiple scenarios. The water supplies developed by GIRAFFE were aggregated into the likely water supplies for each FRA. It should be noted that the likely water supplies for each FRA assumed no water from the City's municipal water system which is quite conservative and highly unlikely even after a seismic event. The reliability score for each FRA R7 [for The SFPUC should continue its efforts to complete a more detailed analysis of emergency - ?re?ghting water needs [including above-the- median needs) by neighborhood, and not just by FRA. and present a completed analysis to the Board of Supervisors by no laterthan June 30, 2021.

Chief, San Francisco Fire Department [September 15, 2019] Disagree. partially The EFWS was built after the 1906 earthquake. and its location, primarily in the northeast portion of San Francisco. corresponds to the location of the majority of the city's population at that time. Since 2010, the SFPUC, SFFD, and Public Works have made critical improvements to the existing EFWS system. Expanding the EFWS prior to ensuring that the existing EFWS is resilient and reliable would have contradicted best engineering practices. The SFPUC and SFFD are developing plans that would implement a resilient, robust, and redundant potable EFWS forthe Westside of San Francisco. The potable EFWS that is being developed and analyzed would propose the best method for bringing a robust and resilient high-pressure ?re?ghting water system to the Western neighborhoods in San Francisco that is capable of providing water to the SFFD ?re?ghters at the high-pressure needed for ?re?ghters to combat large fires after-a seismic event, and is likely to include over 14 miles of new EFWS pipelines and potentially two new pump stations likely to be supplied by four water sources. The SFPUC and potable EFWS is being designed in a manner that allows for agility and the ?exibility to add new technologies and water sources, and in a manner that allows the piping network to be extended In the future to serve additional areas.

The SFFD and SFPUC have had multiple field training opportunities during the maintenance and start~up testing of AWSS facilities in the last 5 years. For example, on December 20, 201B, SFFD and SFPUC personnel conducted emergency generator start-up procedures for Pump Station No. 2 (P52). On April 5, 2018 SFPUC and SFFD performed joint?department full-scale test Pump Station No. 1 (P51) including pumping seawater into an isolated section of the AWSS distribution through system hydrants. On August 29. 2018, SFPUC, SFFD and DPW personnel conducted a seawater drafting drill and confirmation test from the new suction connection at Pier 50. in addition, SFFD and SFPUC periodically test different facilities to assure systems are in good working order, and to train personnel on operations and joint- agency communications. For example, a full- scale emergency exercise was performed between SFFD and SFPUC staff In January 2016 [for between the SFPUC and the SFFD should be amended to include a detailed roadmap for annual emergency response exercises, including simulated disaster and earthquake drills involving the AWSS and the PWSS.

The plan discussed in Recommendation 1 will be acknowledged in the Capital Plan, and based on analysis, will be done on the capital plan timeline. The capital planning process gathers, documents, and balances planned funding for needs across the public infrastructure portfolio and across San Francisco?s rest ence challenges. The Capital Plan has longstanding funding principles to guide the prioritization of public infrastructure investments.
