Thank you, Mr. Chair. And thank you for question. Yes, I'd love the opportunity to explain this one. So the territorial infrastructure is infrastructure that supports the territory as a whole. So I can go here and look at the lightning detection system, which is a piece of territorial infrastructure. So there's a network of detection sites across the NWT that provide lightning data to all of the NWT, to all of the bases in all of the regions, as well as to the territorial fire centre. This type of infrastructure supports all of the firefighting activity. So it's not necessarily assigned to a specific community because its location may not be in a community.
Very similar, the whip line floats are a piece of infrastructure. That is there to support the 802 water bombers so that if there is a damage to a float on one of the aircraft, that that aircraft is not out of service for a long length of time. The lead time to build these floats is approximately four years so this is the kind of inventory that we need to have available and on-hand to ensure that we can support the overall territorial fire operation. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
