Mr. Chairman, most of the information regarding the deficiencies are all relatively minor. We certainly can assure the Members that we’ll do a complete assessment. That is being done right now as we speak with the new companies that we have involved. They certainly are not going to go out and accept a project that has deficiencies that are serious in nature. We’ve also talked to the companies that have been on the project as a result of some concerns that have been brought forward in the last couple of days. They have reassured us that all repairs that needed to be done were completed and signed off. There are still a couple of smaller things that have to be addressed, including the scour rock. We need to have the scour rock on the south side to be valuated to see how much has been washed away or redone. It was only on the south side that we had the issues. That is going to be resolved over this next year. The work that was done was not paid for and we have a holdback for that portion of the work and for other deficiencies.
