Mr. Kevin Meaney:
-----the environmental assessment is now a requirement in the preliminary business case which was not the case prior to 2024. However, that is a technical bit that an agency has to fill out. There are no other additional requirements. I do not anticipate it will take any longer for those three stages than it did before.
