The damage that we have suffered, because of this hurricane, is rain-related, mostly. It's going to - by the time, the tail leaves Puerto Rico, we will have gotten roughly 35 inches of rain. That's a huge amount of rain.
We respectfully ask this Committee and Congress to help us address some additional challenges that we are facing in our ongoing post-disaster reconstruction.
