for a couple of cal trans vehicles, the clock is ticking. cal trans says it can finish this seismic retrofit by 5:00 a.m. on monday weather permitting. cal trans trucks loaded with replacement beams are standing by at the toll plaza ready to begin this seismic work. cal trans says it is work that may thought be affected by the expected rains. >> i hope not. we should be past a certain point late saturday or early sunday. we are starting to put things back together to open this by 5:00 on monday morning. >> this is the bridge section that will be replaced with a polliester deck structure. it will be more flexible during an earthquake. on the weekend about 4,000 cars cross this bridge each hour. and that means people working will have to find alternate routes. it works this foster city. >> i get there and it will take an hour or more. >> the -- they begin on saturday at the san mateo event center. she made her con success assistant and audience knows the closure. >> we sent bull law tins to everybody concerned. we hope everyone will take that into account. >> cal trans is asking everyone to pl

. take a look. the bridge is completely empty. now except for a couple of cal trans vehicles, the clock is ticking. cal trans says it can finish this seismic retrofit by 5:00 a.m. on monday weather permitting. cal trans trucks loaded with replacement beams are standing by at the toll plaza ready to begin this seismic work. cal trans says it is work that may thought be affected by the expected rains. >> i hope not. we should be past a certain point late saturday or early sunday. we are starting to put things back together to open this by 5:00 on monday morning. >> this is the bridge section that will be replaced with a polliester deck structure. it will be more flexible during an earthquake. on the weekend about 4,000 cars cross this bridge each hour. and that means people working will have to find alternate routes. it works this foster city. >> i get there and it will take an hour or more. >> the -- they begin on saturday at the san mateo event center. she made her con success assistant and audience knows the closure. >> we sent bull law tins to everybody concerned. we hope everyone wil

and fire retardant instead of bombs and rockets. we work closely with cal guard, navy and marine corps aviation. we do that with squadron training. we still have khal lefrpg wills, i'm not going to lie to you. we have issues where tactical to air communication is difficult. cal guard, we purchased the radios for national guard aircraft and they installed them in their aircraft so we have robust communications with california national guard, with navy and marine corps it's still a work in progress. we have a work around with that with respect to tactical communications and we use coordinating helicopters to handle air to ground tactical situations and that is relayed to the aircraft that are in trail. it's not perfect but it's a work around and it keeps everybody in the fight. >> prior to 20011 2011 the navy fire fighting capability was concentrated in one squadron. in 2011 it began to expand to other helicopter squadrons. one consequence of that would be multiple squadrons providing aircraft to cal fire to support the fire fighting effort and one somewhat simple but very effecti

with regard to fire and 10 years of lessons learned being applied. first to my left, ray chaney, cal fire incident battle xwrupb chief. to his left, colonel laura yeager, 40th combat aviation brigade. to her left, commander steve everett, to his left lieutenant colonel dana, marine corps installation west. thank you. let me go ahead and start off by talking a little bit and just going back over some of the discussions yesterday that i think are going to play into this discussion. we had vice admiral beeman talk a little bit yesterday about capabilities and vice admiral zunkoff talked about partnerships, unity of effort, unity of command. mayor lee talked about dod efforts, expertise, community efforts and as we go into all those discussions today you will see best practices applied during the 10 years from those fires. i have the pleasure of working for administrator fuget in fema headquarters. fema's role is to coordinate response between state and local governments and his focus, his direction to us really comes down it 3 things. he asks us to always plan for the worst case, the ma

today but cal is celebrating a big catch of sorts. think swimming. we'll explain the buzz behind the golden bears and missy franklin. >> reporter: i'm money francis. 30 years ago, sports history was made. you'll hear from two men whose lives were changed during just 30 seconds as what everyone remembers as "the play." >>> video from the scene of the north beach neighborhood near the cone of powell and vallejo streets. about 50 people were removed from their home. firefighters and police are helping to clear that chemical situation. the red cross also there assisting people who were displaced by the evacuation order. we'll bring you more information as we learn it. the day's big game may not have been one for the record books but we still have the play from the 30ing anniversary of the biggest play ever. live at uc berkeley with the two biggest players, that day, only one of them, a football player. >> reporter: chris, that's right. just about everyone remembers the play even though it happen 30 years ago. in a matter of seconds, two men's lives collided. >> out on the field. >> r

capacity. cal fire's mission is we are the state's fire department. we are thinking about all risk missions whether it's fire, flood, natural or man made disaster, whatever the case may be. some of the great dialogue we had yesterday, one of the scenarios i envision, there's a couple scenarios that i have heard before keep me up at night and one of those is the 7.8 in the la basin. conceptually one of the things we could look at is a mass of casualties to decompress the la hospitals in that event. so we're thinking in an all risk capacity. relationships are about mutual respect which we covet, especially in the dod realm. we do that through training and meeting together. one of our things we're very proud of is on an annual basis we get together and we conduct a 3-day training exercise as well as squadron level training: the first day of the exercise is a telecon exercise to make sure when they pick up the phone they are talking to the commander, whether it's navy or marine corps. we discuss our local letters of agreement, what they can and cannot do, how we stay within the box

aircrew briefings simply because cal fire recognizes that you great folks have a primary mission, that's defense of the nation and we respect that and we understand this is an ancillary job and there is a high revel of rotation of people coming back from afghanistan or iraq, whatever the case may be, but we also reach out to squadron level training. it really comes down to meeting with your cooperating agencies and training together on a frequent basis and having good and open dialogue. >> as i look back at that map here, knowing we were heading into that time of year where we're going to hit significant fire weather and knowing northern california as we are now but eventually southern california, one of the most effective ways to stop the fires from growing is that initial attack, which means we need to be able to quickly put resources up in the air and move them. i guess my question is from a national guard perspective, from a naval perspective, with the helicopter resources down there, do you feel you would be able to quickly move those resources and you have the agreements in plac

weapons. >>> the big game between stanford and cal was quite a controversy this year. it traditionally comes at the end of the season, but for the first time in more than a century, the big game between the cal bears and the cardinals was held in october. it's usually around thanksgiving. stanford fans say what matters most is they beat their hated rival. >> they were talking about it in the papers. i think it's great. it doesn't really matter. >> we were sad to leave the game early, but we know the bears fought hard. all we can say is go bears! >> the big game was pushed up because of the schedule for this year's pac 12 title game. the teams have been promised the big game will return with the final games of the season next year. stanford keeps the ax. we'll have highlights later in sports. >>> we've already said this four times in the past two weeks. but once again, the giant season is on the line. after beating st. louis last night, the team returned to at&t, for the game tonight in the nlcs. if they lose, the season is over. if they win, the giants play a winner-take-all game. the

right. before we head for the door, one last look at the 115th big game at cal. the stats, the final score, lopsided in the way of stanford. the ax. it remains in stanford's possession. late first quarter, stepfan taylor. a sen-yard touchdown run. a career-high for taylor. here comes hogan. that made it 14-3. all the points came in the first half. josh nunez, a nice little pass to zach. stanford hadn't scored a touchdown on the road all season until today. cal's offense held for three yards rushing. they only had the ball 23 minutes. zach picked by wayne ryan and that was it. stanford keeps the ax and wins. final of 21-3. >>> almost unnoticed. what is happening with the san jose state spartans? 52-24. # they led 28-0 early, never looked back. san jose state now 5 ashe 2 for -- 5-and-2 for the year. >>> what's next for 17-year-old swimming sensation missy franklin? the cal bears. franklin, in her colorado home, made the announcement that uc berkeley wins out over texas, georgia and usc. franklin, the world record holder in the back stroke. she says she will swim two years in ncaa and

corps and guard safety policy. cal fire has an aviation policy as well. we work cooperatively with the agencies here at the table to ensure when we are engaged in an aerial fire fighting event we are working within each other's policies. we have trained in a work around, we can do close air support with navy and marine corps aircraft, with the current system we have. would we like to improve upon it? absolutely. we have gone very high up in the organization to try and look at getting the r210 radio modified to the point where it can work on our vhf spectrums, that's one of our challenges we need to move forward with. but overall we're confident when we do call upon dod assets to integrate with civilian aircraft, the training regimen we put forth will keep aircrews safe and also have them be effective. there was a lot of questions from a political level as well as a public level. you've got aircraft sitting at north island, just launch them, get them in the fight. it was hard to explain to them that that's a very delicate air space when you have fixed wing and rotary wing

as the play. the end of the big game between cal and stanford in 1982 and on this 30 th anniversary of the play at the big game today we talked with those two men whose lives were forever changed in those few seconds, three decades ago. nbc's bay area is live on the uk berkeley campus. if you grew up in the bay area, you know that play, you know a call. >> that's right. it was probably the most dramatic end to a college football game ever. that is why it is known simply as the play. >> the band is out on the field. he's going so the end zone! >> it was 1982 and cal was trailing stanford 19-20 with four seconds to go in the glam, stanford kicked off the. the ball was lateraled from player to player and cal player reached the end zone as the stanford band was already there on the field to apparently celebrate their team's victory. but he scored and knocked over a trombone player by the name of gary. cal won the game and is rest the sport's history. today they both attended to cal/stanford game and reminisced about that moment that changed both of their lives. >> two seconds of my life

. that hurts if you are a cal fan. cal has a fourth and one. getting nailed here by ben gardner. just 3 yards rushing. cal gets the ball back thanks to an interception. zach maynard is picked for the second time. 11-3, the final. >>> stanford is 58-46 and 11 in the big game series. cardinal outgained cal. cal calls -- falls. they finally win a road game. >> we wanted to wash the bad taste out of our mouth coming into this game. a whole week of preparation. >> i thought it was a good game by the offense as a whole. >> it was special. the week leading up and the anticipation that builds up. it is unique to college football. wherever and whenever they want to play, we will show up and give it our best shot. >> former miami coach, is building a new program at the university of texas. scores 52 points. 36 yards worth six points. and three td passes today. this is in the second-year and committing committing six turnovers. spartans also have tyler urban breaking free. 92 yards. san jose state wins 52-24. >> the giants are down but they are not out. today they had a voluntary workout at at&t p

development. but, we are going to be able to support cal train and high speed rails operations in this configuration. the rail concourse level actually has gone through even more comprehensive refinement with the train box extension, we have now moved program support spaces for high speed rail and cal train from the west end of the station to the east end of the station over this time period, the operators came to realize that they would need to have a paid passenger boundary, so we have modified and relocated the bicycle program and some of the other programs at the rail level or the rail concourse level. the changes coming out of the discussions with high speed rail also had an impact on the bus ramps and you have seen an update on this before, but just wanted to remind how the modification and the radius coming from second street into the station had impacted the bus ramps. so that we had to go from a via duct structure which had a relatively short cantilever, and when that extended we were no longer able to expand that distance with a via duct-type of structure and so we ha

of the next two decades, as the extension of cal train at fourth and king, 1.3 miles into the new transit center in the heart of downtown, that's projected to add about 16 thousand daily riders to cal train and the reason for that increase is apparent when you look at where the jobs are located in our city, according to the census bureau, in the half mile, there are over 180 thousand jobs compared to about 18 thousand jobs in the half mail regarding the cal train terminal at 10th and king, it is a 10 fold difference, that makes a significant difference because we're bringing people in to the heart of downtown, in addition to the economic benefits, there are significant environmental benefits associated with increasing access to transit and increasing that proximity between jobs, housing and transit, it's estimated the new transit center is going to result in an annual reduction of carbon dioxide emissions of at least 36 thousand tons every year, and the new transit center is going to be a lead goal certified facility, one of the first facilities of its kind to receive that designation and
