I think the Senator is asking about the product awaiting recycling. It has been collected by a contractor, is in a yard and has not yet gone to a processing facility. We do not keep a tally of that. We know each waste collector has a waste collection permit and is allowed to store only a certain quantity of material by that permit. From the information we have, all the yards are now in compliance.
