as i mentioned, there have been project changes. some of them were already recognized in the final eir and were documented in the comments and responses document. layered on top of that are changes that have taken place in the project since we published the staff report. with respect to those that were covered in the eir already, those were related to changes and refinements in the scheduling for the race events themselves. there were a number of improvements and refinements that the event of authority and race management were able to make on their own in terms of their operations, having learned from all of these world series of events. they have made a green commitment to buy the tier 4 highest efficiency engines for their votes, and that yielded adjustments in the environmental impact analysis from what had been published before. as you know, we have gotten hundreds of commons from the public, and the dialogue that mike martin and his team had been leading with regards to all the implementation plans and the comments that have co
