A hydrogen future?
“Is hydrogen fuel on the menu?” That’s the topic du jour for next week’s meeting of the Innovation Tri-Valley Leadership Group Executive Board featuring an exclusive presentation from Dublin Mayor Melissa Hernandez, who is chair of the Regional Rail Authority spearheading the Valley Link project.
A proposed commuter light rail system to connect the San Joaquin Valley and Livermore directly to BART in the Tri-Valley, Valley Link has long been eyed for sustainable-energy technology operations.
Hernandez will delve into new specifics at the luncheon meeting — “a vision to be the nation’s first passenger rail system to operate on self-produced green hydrogen fuel.”
The meeting, open to the public with pre-registration, is set for Wednesday (May 17) at noon in the Shannon Community Center in Dublin. Visit innovationtrivalley.org/valleylinklunch.

Prescribed burn set
The Livermore Lab is scheduled to conduct its annual prescribed burn at its Site 300 experimental test site south of Tracy beginning next week.
“The purpose of the prescribed burn is to help prevent seasonal wildfires from spreading to or from Site 300. This process involves careful burning along the site fence line and in portions of the site interior under controlled conditions,” officials said. “The burn schedule is heavily dependent on appropriate weather conditions, which are confirmed by air district meteorologists on the day of a planned burn.”
The burn will be performed by the Alameda County Fire Department under its contract with Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC. Learn more specifics at enviroinfo.llnl.gov.
