Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We have the transformer problem almost under control now with the recognition that PCBs are hazardous and they are finding other alternatives for cooling off these larger transformers. I guess a daily occurrence is oil changes in large engines and ships on the ocean and rivers. The oil which is taken from these engines contains flakes of metal and, of course, it becomes unusable. There was a storage facility in Hay River and they were planning to refine, ship or burn this oil. Does getting rid of this substance come under your jurisdiction? I wondered how much can be stored in one area before it becomes a hazard without anything being done to either refine it or burn it. Is there a plan or program for that oil which comes in in large volumes?
