We work with them to set our yearly priorities and we meet with them on a regular basis to discuss things as they come forward at us. It’s more expensive but it is a 20-year agreement, and it also includes a 20-year capital allocation as well, which is spread out over the period of time rather than having one billed at one time and having a giant cheque one year and prices, it’s spread over a 20-year plan. It is more expensive. We know that. We have a relationship where we could provide more direction as far as priorities. We don’t tell them how to police. They police based on their standards, protocols, practices and all those types of things, but we have a pretty good relationship right now. If you ask me if it’s a good deal, it’s a lot of money and, obviously, we’d like it cheaper. I think everybody would, but that was the national deal that we were a part of.
