Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The department is working closely with all the community fire departments where the pull-boxes are not working; there is the ability to phone in the fire alarm. If the phones are not accessible, then we would have to rely on a pull-box mechanism in those instances. Through our capital planning process, we try to meet those kinds of deficiencies. If it is a significant capital item, then it gets reflected in our capital plan. We do have a budget for fire equipment in each of the regional offices for minor fire protection equipment. If there are particular cases that are problematic and of immediate concern, we do have the ability to attempt to address those.
