Mr. Chairman, I don't have the specific date, but I think it's around December 2003, that we got notification that there would be a requirement to put in a screening device for passengers and baggage. The date was set for January 1, 2006. Having said that, we had no information in terms of the scoping of the project, the costing of the project and who would be required to cover which portions until early this summer, Mr. Chairman, which didn't leave us a lot of time or much room other than to go forward with a special warrant. The timing, as I stated earlier, is January 1, 2006. It doesn't leave us a lot of room.
