Mr. John Conlon:
Significant site development costs developed over the period of this project. As I said earlier during the discussions we had in the first part of this meeting, we faced significant costs with each of those sites because they were all suboptimal sites. Most of them required huge investments in site development costs, including issues with bringing in utilities, site clearance, the presence of rocks, slopey sites, ESB connections and foul sewers. That escalated over time to a significant degree.
