Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, yes there is a savings in the operations and maintenance side if we do chip seal the highway system. Chip sealing the highway system is a substantial capital investment. This is reconstruction of the existing highway system and getting it chip sealed. I just wanted to maybe add, usually the chip sealing is the latter part of the reconstruction of the highway, so there is a substantial up front cost to chip sealing a highway system. Thank you.
