Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I didn't get any indication of why we are not charging a toll fee on tonnage in the operations of the ferry or even the operations of the highway. I know there is a fixed rate at the weigh scales that companies pay, but right now, before we hit them with the $6.50 in 2010 or $10 or whatever it may be when the bridge finally opens its gates, why can't we just start charging them a toll right now? Then when it comes time to charge them a toll when the bridge is open, they won't take it so harshly and won't try to think of alternatives to work around it. Why can't we do that today? Thank you.
