 With that, I'll turn it over to our Governor, Governor Brown. Thank you. I want to announce that I've filed a letter with the President asking for an emergency declaration for the kind of relief that that kind of petition will make available. The federal government is already providing quite a lot of help right now, but this will formalize our request. And then that will be the first step toward a more permanent request for federal assistance. Obviously, this is a very serious matter. And as I've been briefed over the last several days, it strikes me that this is quintessentially a challenge of engineers, of on the ground, hands-on people that know how to fix various construction elements of this dam. So it's not one that the political mind may have something to say about it, but this is an example of our very interdependent, complex society where the engineers and the managers who are right there, far below the hierarchy, on the spot are the people we're depending on. People around me are the overall leaders. And I would say that the evacuation has gone well. They will be able to say when, not tonight, but when this order will be ready for some kind of modification. Again, we have been investing substantial sums in our infrastructure, probably $5 billion on various forms of flood control in the last 10 years, about $400 million in the last two years. So there's a lot to be done. There's a lot more. Things can fail. And whether it's levees or dams or bridges, we've got a lot of work to do. And as we've mentioned, our deferred maintenance is great. And stuff happens. Things occur. And we have to be able to respond. And the people have been really good, the sheriffs, the people who are responsible, Cal Fire, the Department of Water Resources, National Guard, OES. They've all been putting their hands to the plow here and getting it done. So I am proud of what they're doing. And my heart goes out to all those who have to live with the concern and the fear that this is kind of a situation engender. So it is serious. Our folks are doing the best they can. And we'll know more in the succeeding days. I'd be glad to take any questions. Governor, you were talking about the early reports questioning the state of the spillway. The state of the spillway. You were talking about the early reports. Well, so far it's holding. And that's why the evacuation is still in place, because there's uncertainty. And the norm is better be safe than sorry. And what exactly it is, as I mentioned just a moment ago, this is about engineering. It's about construction. It's about repair. And those people who are doing that are the ones that have to bring those kind of ideas to the fore. And I'm just here to make sure that from the top down, everybody is aligned with those at the bottom who have the responsibility. Any comment? Are you referring to that whatever it was that the 10 years ago or 12 years ago? Yeah, I think that's glad we found out about it. It was not part of the record before that, at least the record that I saw. So look, we have a lot of stuff out here. In the Delta, we have a lot of, as I say, bridges and dams and spillways, and more to come. We're in a very complex society where things can go wrong when they do, they ripple out and affect hundreds of thousands, in some cases, millions of people. But that report, there's lots of reports. So we have to depend on the professionals and the engineers and they tell us what we need, then we do it. But I welcome more scrutiny. President Parsons just called me on the way over here, said they have their own concerns, and I said, great, we'll put you in touch with DWR. So we'll get a lot of eyes on the problem now that we have a problem. And the problem is big, and we're responding. Governor, you sent a letter to the president asking about it. Yes. Have you... Yes, I spoke to a cabinet member earlier today. I was very... Who was that? I don't know, we have to give you all the... I personally spoke to a recently confirmed cabinet member. My office has been in touch in the White House. I think that will be sufficient. No vulgar details beyond those that I'm giving you. No, whatever it is. No, that was... No, I'm not answering you. Not, no, you didn't pick the right name. Are you concerned about a call? Well, I wouldn't try to pick any one comment out of the last three weeks. There's a lot of buzz on a number of fronts, domestic and foreign. And I'm sure that California and Washington will work in a constructive way. That's my attitude. There will be different points of view, but we're all one America, and we all have challenges that we share in common. And as we defend America, we defend California and vice versa. Any other people can go home? We're not making that announcement tonight, but you can ask the sheriffs will be saying something tomorrow, I think, on that. Yes? I've been on this, that this is an example of both water problems that we have and water reliability and infrastructure. And that's been talked at the capitals and other places. What would you take on that? But this is an example of what we have not done for years. Well, we don't know what it's an example of because we didn't even think about it three days ago. So it happened. And the rain is not as great as it was in prior years. And some of the spillway gave way. And then we had the other problem with the other spillway. So I think you can take this from it. That infrastructure is profoundly important. And in our complex society, whether it's electricity or gas or water or roads or bridges, there's a lot to be done. And we're not talking about a few million. We're talking about tens of billions. And that's why I was very glad to see President Trump announces $1 trillion infrastructure program, which I fully embrace. And I was strived to make sure California gets 12%. That's our population representative. And we have 12, we have certainly 120 billion that we can spend it on wisely. You're playing 12 normal at any point? I don't have any plans right now. Right now they're busy. I don't think we need politicians fluttering around without able to do anything. That's my point. When I hear what these, when they talk about this, this is not law, it's not politics. It's not what I'm used to. So I'm gonna leave this to the engineers and fly whatever appropriate management and monitoring and good skeptical eye that I can apply. But I don't have to fly around and wave at you guys. Governor, there's a lot of them right now that help shore things up. Is that something that could have happened sooner perhaps in your estimation or things are on the right time for people? I, you know, that's not a question that you or I could probably opine wisely on. So I assume these folks to approve and otherwise are doing a splendid job. You bet there are. There are gonna be a lot of things that are gonna get scrutiny. Every time you have one of these disasters, people perk up and start looking at analogous situations and things that you might not have paid as much attention to. But we live in a world of risk. The earthquake shook the Bay Bridge and then we, the state and all the different governors had to put up a new bridge. So stuff happens and we respond. So this is part of the ordinary process and in that sense it will be helpful to stimulate more infrastructure analysis and more infrastructure investment. Yeah. Well, my message is that we're doing everything we can to get this dam in shape that they can return and they can live safely without fear. It's very difficult. I don't, it's hard to understand how people have been able to evacuate so quickly and the disturbance to their lives. And just know that their government and their representatives are doing everything they can and will continue to do whatever it takes to make sure we have a safe dam up there and in all the other places where we have these kind of potential threats. With that, we gotta get back to the question. Did you get any assurances from the cabinet secretary you talked to who was unnamed? Did you get any assurances like, yes, we hear. I got a very congenial conversation. That's what I will say. And I was glad about that, but details to follow. Thank you.
