01:13:26	Zoom user:	Thanks a lot, Brett!
01:13:47	Woody Hastings, The Climate Center:	Cyrq, Eavor, and Chevron New Energies
01:15:07	Frances Lee:	Will CEQA rollbacks for fossil fuels also help the geothermal industry?

01:17:13	Bob Fabian:	Thank you Claudia, good to see SCP has such great people
01:17:27	Beverly DesChaux:	Love what you are doing at SCP! wish our CCA 3CE would do the same!
01:17:38	Jim Lutz:	Is it possible to retrofit or repurpose existing oil wells for advanced geothermal?
01:18:05	Marc Victoria, The Climate Center:	Operating Engineers Local 3 - https://www.oe3.org/
01:18:32	Marc Victoria, The Climate Center:	Operating Engineers International - https://www.iuoe.org/
01:20:48	Karen Wood:	Good to know 😃!
01:22:13	Pete Marsh, Long Beach CA:	Chris: Your last point was very important and resassuring: glad to hear that labor is "coming around" and looking to the future. Thanks!
01:22:31	Bob Fabian:	Welcome aboard, I can remember when the Unions fought us.. Labor deserves to be paid well.
01:23:19	Sabrina Dove:	Will the 3 developers selected be obligated to hire union employees?
01:24:25	Cristina Marquez:	Yes to a skilled & trained workforce! Cristina Marquez with IBEW Local 569, the Electricians Union. I am a Journeyman who went through the Apprenticeship and it changed my life. cmarquez@ibew569.org
01:24:59	Frances Lee:	Wow! I’m impressed!
01:25:05	Marc Victoria, The Climate Center:	Hey Cristina! Thanks for joining our webinar - Marc

01:26:24	Karen Wood:	you have a link too? excellent 👌
01:27:49	Mary Fitzpatrick:	I am concerned about byopassing CEQA permitting. I understand the time factor, but I'm concerned about the environmental protection CEQA can provide -- does NEPA provide the same?
01:28:06	Bob Fabian:	Is Eavor considered an 'enhanced geothermal' design?
01:29:32	Beverly DesChaux:	Data Centers themselves are looking at their own sources but sm nuclear is one of them unfortunately. Seems they should be required to at least provide a portion of their energy needs themselves
01:31:40	Karen Ashikeh:	Data Centers should create their own clean energy infrastructure like solar before they get permits to operate in cities and counties? We should not "sell" them at any Price! They should build the power plants and can contribute to options for cheaper power for the community.
01:36:55	Mary Williams:	@Karen Yes! The lack of this requirement is part of what’s bringing us into this dangerous SB 540 mess of entering a regional grid risking our control over our renewable requirements
01:37:40	Danett Abbott:	SB 540 isn't dangerous, it's necessary
01:41:59	Marshall Dinowitz:	I, too, was concerned about SB 540’s potential issues, but it has two years to see what the issues might be, until 2027, to negate them, or get out of it, as understand the bill.
01:42:16	Sabrina Dove:	Will the 3 developers be obligated to hire local union employees?
01:42:55	Woody Hastings, The Climate Center:	EGS =Enhanced Geothermal systems
01:44:42	Ann Harvey:	SB540's "safeguards" including the ability to leave the Regional Transmission Organization do not hold up to a close reading of the bill. It is indeed very dangerous.
01:48:33	Karen Ashikeh:	Time to get rid of this Federal labor and climate sabotage that is stopping safety of what we have withEPA help Let's get back to the baseline and get rid of Republicans that cannot get on board with this plan? Ask questions of candidates running for local and state office. Tell the incumbents they will be out if they do not assure a sustainable future.
01:50:48	Marshall Dinowitz:	TCC was opposed to SB 540. What is TCC current position?
01:52:29	Kurt Johnson:	TCC has not taken a position on SB 540
01:53:53	Mary Williams:	https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/business/energy-environment/pjm-electrical-grid.html
01:53:57	Claire Broome:	How does the Eavor approach compare to the Networked Geothermal implemented in the Massachusetts pilots (by Eversource I believe)?
01:55:03	Mary Williams:	Ceding control to FERC is dangerous indeed, just look at what’s happened with PJM on the east coast (see NYT article above)
01:55:06	Karen Wood:	wow!
02:00:03	Karen Ashikeh:	FERC is responsive to those in power. EPA is a much better choice for development over time. People with generations of experience in a geographic area should also guide for overall needs of an area. That is the indigenous populations.
