“Okay, great. Thank you. So my next set of questions regard basically these questions around fire risk, plumes, and kind of mitigation procedures. So let's do plumes, and then we can talk about fire risk. So I don't know if you wanted to, if you have your presentation, we can put that up.”

“Okay, yeah, thank you very much. Do you think before you, could you put your picture back up of the plumes?”

“And then we'll go back to exposure thresholds. I just think that would be helpful for folks.”

“Okay, thank you. Could you go back to your exposure threshold level? The other slide, just so you can leave it up and we can hear from the county. Yep, no, you were good.”

“I just asked for that. Sorry, that was my bad. I asked for that one. Is this correct?”

“Can we turn to, so I want to hear from the county team kind of how they did their modeling.”

“Yeah. I feel like that's where we're all, that felt like the next step. That was also what Supervisor Anderson was interested in as well. So it would be super helpful. I think that was very articulate and very clear. I think it would be very helpful to hear from the county team. It seems like there's... A couple questions on the table. One is, what's the appropriate threshold level to be utilized for the model, whether it's the ALG-1, the ALG-2 at 30 minutes, the ALG-2 at one hour? Hopefully I captured your different thresholds correctly. And then, based on those thresholds, and the wind…”

“I think that's a great idea. I think what would be most helpful is to address particularly the concerns raised by the community group presentation and by Joe Rowley in particular regarding the AEGL 1 versus 2 radius and answer kind of the concerns that he raised.”

“This is a question for Jensen. No, ma'am, it's for Jensen. Thank you. Just to clarify, my colleague is asking a follow-up regarding the plume modeling and the accuracy of the plume modeling, and she asked whether variability of wind patterns was accounted for, particularly generated by climate change.”

“Yep, any other questions for our friend from Jensen while he's up here, please? We have a hand up from Vice Chair Montgomery-Stepp.”

“Okay. We have a hand up from Supervisor Desmond. Go ahead. You did a real hand up. You did an actual hand instead of a virtual hand.”

“Right? Yes? Okay. Got it. Okay. We're all going to be experts on plumes. Vice Chair Montgomery-Stepp.”

“I think the water's clear, and we do have a motion that the team has drafted that would add that condition to the project. So I think we're good on that. Meeting the minds.”

“I just want to, if you could stay up to be efficient here. I'd love a little bit more clarity on the structure of this community benefit. I guess, a million in phase one and then a dollar per megawatt in phase two. What is the timing? Where does it get paid? What does it fund?”

“But then the San Diego Foundation decides how the money is spent, like legally?”

“That's your first warning. If you disrupt the meeting again, you'll be asked to leave. Thank you. Go ahead, sir.”

“I'm some more kind of questions that community benefit.”
Board of Supervisors · Sep 16, 2026
- Play at 3:50:24
“Okay. I have some questions on that. I mean, I think what I'm hearing from the community is they want all the money up front. You're saying we can't do that because you can do the part from phase one because that energy is already sold, so there's a pot of money to distribute.”
Board of Supervisors · Sep 16, 2026

“But you can't do that from phase two because that has not been sold. There's no income. There's no income. Question on that. I understand that makes sense logically, but there's another piece to me, which there are upfront costs to phase two, right? Like you're doing a lot of paying a lot of investments to kind of design the project, develop the project. There's a lot of upfront costs for developing phase two, even before there is a revenue stream. It seems like it might be reasonable to consider at least a portion of a community of development, a community benefit as an upfront development…”
