Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the regulations are under the federal government. They are working with us. I don't have an exact time frame. I would have to commit to getting that. We are also working with the company, voicing our concern, and also to the people who will be receiving this fuel. There has to be a better system set up so that they can store them on land and have our own laws and rules apply rather than have them stored in these barges. It's been a practice that's been around for about 10 years or so, Mr. Speaker. There are other areas in the NWT that are being targeted and I should also mention there are also other areas in Nunavut that are being targeted for storage in this manner and it's a concern all around from all the territories. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
