To conclude, the community buy-in is really important. If we are going to have AD plants here, there and everywhere, and more than likely a lot of them are going to be in rural communities, that engagement from the very beginning is really important. It does not always happen. Witnesses have spoken about the importance of education, but if this is just foisted on a rural community, there is an onus and responsibility on the company to do that part with regard to education and engagement at the start, and that will perhaps avoid judicial reviews and all of that. It would be a win-win.
