Very well. Deputy O'Brien is back, so perhaps the witnesses can give brief answers to his questions. October was a unique situation. We all accept that now. An alert was missed, a sequence of events happened, alarms were missed and so on. November was not so unique. Rain led to turbidity, which led to cryptosporidium treatments not being as successful as they would have been. Rain is not a unique occurrence. Could this keep happening until the upgrade of the filters is complete?
