Hi all, I was watching this past Tuesday's San Francisco Public Utilities Commission(SFPUC) hearing and saw staff director Susan Leal on two occasions being openly defiant and manipulatively opposing Commissioners Brooks and Sklar when the issue of the Williams natural gas turbines (CTs) was brought up. A majority of the Commissioners, because of increasing public opposition, have been insisting that SFPUC staff (like Leal) no longer consider the new polluting gas turbine installation in Bayview Hunters Point as a certainty, and to instead follow the Commissioners' lead in pursuing other options. Because Leal and the Commissioners practically got into an open verbal conflict over the issue, a discussion of the turbine installation has been calendared for the next regular SFPUC meeting (which I assume will be Tuesday, July 10). This will be another opportunity for the public to speak against the turbines. peace Eric Brooks
