The delays are necessary to accommodate work on the cables that provide power to the track. Our best estimate is that delays for trains in both directions will be approximately 20 to 40 minutes on the lines requiring transfers (trains coming from or going toward Dublin or Fremont) and 5 to 10 minutes on the other lines (trains coming from or going toward Richmond or Pittsburg/Bay Point) during the hours listed below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the hours listed below, customers who are traveling from any San Francisco or Peninsula station toward Dublin or Fremont will need to take a Pittsburg/Bay Point-bound train to travel through the Tube. You will need to get off the train at 12th Street Station in Oakland and go downstairs to transfer to a special Dublin or a Fremont-bound train.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the hours listed below, customers who are traveling from Fremont or Dublin to San Francisco and Daly City will need to board their usual train. These trains will be diverted to MacArthur Station. This diversion is necessary because the trains originating in Fremont and Dublin during the hours work is performed will not travel through the Tube. Customers should get off the train at 12th Street Station in Oakland and go downstairs to transfer to a San Francisco-bound train.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SATURDAY, MAY 28:\u003cbr>\nWork starts after the last train on Friday.

The delays are necessary to accommodate work on the cables that provide power to the track. Our best estimate is that delays for trains in both directions will be approximately 20 to 40 minutes on the lines requiring transfers (trains coming from or going toward Dublin or Fremont) and 5 to 10 minutes on the other lines (trains coming from or going toward Richmond or Pittsburg/Bay Point) during the hours listed below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the hours listed below, customers who are traveling from any San Francisco or Peninsula station toward Dublin or Fremont will need to take a Pittsburg/Bay Point-bound train to travel through the Tube. You will need to get off the train at 12th Street Station in Oakland and go downstairs to transfer to a special Dublin or a Fremont-bound train.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the hours listed below, customers who are traveling from Fremont or Dublin to San Francisco and Daly City will need to board their usual train. These trains will be diverted to MacArthur Station. This diversion is necessary because the trains originating in Fremont and Dublin during the hours work is performed will not travel through the Tube. Customers should get off the train at 12th Street Station in Oakland and go downstairs to transfer to a San Francisco-bound train.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SATURDAY, MAY 28:\u003cbr>\nWork starts after the last train on Friday.

Billed by its developers as the largest solar panel system in Alameda County and one of the largest in Northern California, the 1.18-megawatt, 4,354-photovoltaic solar panel system was installed on the roof of U.S. Foodservice-San Francisco's main warehouse, located on Lawrence Drive in Livermore. The panels will generate more than 1.35 million kilowatt-hours of electricity each year. The installation is expected to generate, at peak production, enough electricity to power 194 average California homes and offset the equivalent emission of 24,278 tons of pollutants over the next 25 years. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_17842481\">Water rates set to increase 9.4 percent in Santa Clara County\u003c/a> (Palo Alto Daily News)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The Santa Clara Valley Water District's proposal to raise groundwater rates by nearly 60 percent over the next five years are drawing questions from a concerned Los Altos City Council.

The water district is seeking a 9.4 percent rate increase for the 2011-12 fiscal year in the north county zone, and also anticipates rate increases of more than 9 percent each year through 2015-16.
