Given how important this obviously is, my only regret is that we didn't have an opportunity to talk about it 24 hours ago.
Not really. I have just come from the Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee, which is having a hearing on the Key Bridge, the bridge in Baltimore that was badly damaged.
I think the greatest way that the Commission can have an impact on that is probably through our rate-making authority.
