happening again in the event of another power failure. >> adding another co-generation unit to the refinery only increases our carbon footprint. >> it seems like any refinery should have a becomeup generator. i am concerned -- a backup generator. i am concerned in the event of an earthquake or something else what would happen. i live very close to the refinery and i can see it whenever they do a burnoff out of my front window. >> reporter: officials with the epa and bay area air quality management spent the day monitoring the air after the incident. they confirm tonight it's not in the unhealthy range but only in benicia. >> we have been sampling primarily in the benicia area. there hasn't been discussion about sampling beyond that further. >> reporter: christin ayers, kpix5. remember that big blackout a couple weeks ago in san francisco? tonight the city is telling pg&e pay us back. a fire at a pg&e substation knocked out power for about eight hours to a large portion of the city. now city officials are seeking

awareness. >> reporter: but after only 13 days on the job jones who would have made $169,000 a year suddenly resigned. >> it was his decision to do so. >> reporter: it's unclear, why but the spokesman says they stand by their decision to hire him. >> the american philosophy is people deserve second chances. >> reporter: one of the reasons why the city says he would have been a good candidate is because jones was overseeing public housing in richmond. in san jose they don't deal with public housing. we tried to reach jones through the city but have yet to hear from him. in san jose maria medina, kpix5. tonight we're learning several oakland fire inspectors don't have the proper certification to do their jobs. the city started looking at hiring more inspectors and during that review they found that the certification standards have changed. this comes after 40 people died in two fires in oakland including the ghost ship warehouse fire last december.

"rather than causing a big disruption in new york city that he would be working in bedminister, new jersey. the mayor sent congress a letter asking for an estimated $300,000 to cover the

president's upcoming visit. that does not include the price tag for surrounding towns or even the state of new jersey. >> the bottom line is the president no matter where he goes is the president and he doesn't get to control the level of costs and security that may come along with that. >> now trump's new jersey golf club is cheaper to secure than his new york penthouse. the police department estimates that would cost more than $300,000 per day when mr. trump is there. that's double the $146,000 that the nypd is paying per day to protect the first lady and their son baron. congress agreed to budget an extra $6 million to reimburse localities for costs associated with all these get-aways. a ruling this week from the u.s. supreme court said miami can sue wells fargo and bank of america over lending practices.

when her doctor looked at the 13-inch wide cut 4 inches deep, he told her she was bitten by a 4 to 5-foot juvenile great white shark likely feeding close to shore. >> it almost seems as though the shark bit my leg when i fell out of like fear and got the end of my fin as well because there's tooth marks on my fin. >> reporter: reeb told me as soon as her leg is better, she plans on getting right back in the water. she set up a gofundme page in the meantime. she's just a student and doesn't have enough money to pay her surgery bills. that's the latest from santa monica, stacy butler, kpix5. tonight the fcc is investigating steven colbert and his rant attacking president trump. on monday the late show host launched a series of insults aimed at the president. the federal communications commission says it's received a number of complaints about the monologue. so it's investigating if the late show broke any rules and promising to take appropriate
