That is really the basis for the Kyl-Miller amendment: to allow the States to determine what is in their best interest. I note that in more than 90 utilities across the country there is already a green pricing policy, what they call green pricing, which allows consumers to request and pay for the cost of this green power. In other words, they can say, I want 50 percent of my power to come from renewable sources, or whatever it is, and whatever the cost of that is, the utility is required to provide that power to them and charge that cost to them. That is a customer's option. That is one of the specific provisions in the Kyl-Miller amendment.
