and so it is a very good team that acom has put together and no need for a learning cycle and they actually propose a schedule of 14 months which was less than what we would advertise. so we look forward with all of this experience that they have and some of the individuals on it worked for other companies and another company which did in fact some of the high speed rail. so really, you can go in and you have one proposal. we got the best one, and i would have wanted in the first place and so i have no hesitation in recommending the board of directors to authorize this contract for a two-year period just in case we get into many questions, which sometimes happens in environmental work. >> thank you, any questions from board members? >> yes? >> director harper? >> i probably showing my ignorance here lack of not being here for a while. but there is a lot of construction work, i understand that. but i can't think of a significant environmental impact saying, yeah they better check for this or that. has anybody run through an initial study of what they are looking at? >> yes, we have done init
