I think one of the things we want to be sure is incorporated into the legislation, is the recognition that is where we need to go.

I am very concerned about recycled water and the stigma attached to wastewater.

I am working to get one in my area, the San Gabriel Valley in California.

Dodd-Frank is a most important piece of reform legislation that we spent an awful lot of time on.

Overall SBDCs are facing about a 10 percent cut in the budget.

Okay. We've got $1.5 billion worth of facilities here, right? These two facilities? Over the last 10 years, $800 million has been spent on design of the new facility.

Candidly, I don't know whether this facility can produce or not.

I don't know how they're functioning. I don't know how they're paying for functioning.

You are saying there is a likelihood we will achieve ignition by the end of the year?

Well, if the original estimate was September, and it's now March, that's a substantial period of time.

I want to speak about the termination or delay of two projects after spending a $1.5 billion on them.

I'd like to see it.

So you're saying that based on this new acceptable dose conversion factor that you can now process more plutonium. Therefore, the new facility is not necessary. Is that what you're saying?

Then what is it, on a scale of 1 to 10?

Yes, the plutonium pits.

Could we please see the results of your pit-aging studies?

Well, how much longer can the stockpile be considered safe without ignition?

NIF is supposed to achieve ignition by September. My question is, will it? There are some that believe it will not.
