Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We have had a couple of workshops with the folks in the Gwich’in and in particular we have established some really good working relationships with the Aboriginal governments in the Gwich’in Settlement Area. Some of the things we have underway, we have a study and are working with the community of Fort McPherson, exploring the potential for some residual heat. We are also looking at developing, we are looking at a pilot project with the community, as far as the Willow Flats that we are dealing with the community of Fort McPherson. In fact, we have also felt it was necessary and we bought a wood chipper for the community, and we are doing a number of these initiatives with some of the smaller communities to start to get them interested in biomass, what it could be used for and those types of things. I am also meeting with all the Gwich’in chiefs this Thursday to further the Biomass Strategy for the Gwich’in Settlement Area. They want to work together and we encourage that. We have had staff in their communities a number of times and will continue to do so. We have established a good working relationship with the Aboriginal governments in the Gwich’in Settlement Area. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
