Thank you, Madam Chair. Many of the water quality stations that the GNWT supports are not done in the wintertime but the ones that the federal government does are. And the only time that they're not sampled is when the ice is not safe for folks to go on. The GNWT, in situations where there are concerns about water quality, will work with communities. For example, what's happening in Fort Smith right now, where we're using the drinking water and to take additional sampling under ice, but there are challenges with ice safety. So in the late spring and in the fall before the ice is safe is the only time that those federal stations are not monitored to my understandings. Thank you, Madam Chair.
