>> sure supervisor mar. so as i mentioned and supervisor farrell also alluded to this, the statements from 2010 from the federal financing agency were statements of concern, and since those statements were released most residential pace programs including ours in san francisco basically suspended because there was some question as to what was really behind those statements. as supervisor farrell mentioned a number of residential pace programs have continued to operate even in light of that regulatory uncertainty and they actually have been quite successful and to everyone's knowledge none of those federal agencies have actually acted upon any of those statements that they had made in 2010. >> if they acted upon that means there was a fear a few years ago they might challenge different programs but they haven't done that over three years? >> correct. their position basically remains the same but their actions have not really followed up on anything they have said in those statements. for example in western ri
