"So you are looking at this as a directive and not a mandate?"

"We want to help and do our part in making certain the proper prevention and response mechanisms are there, but it means you all have to not play kick the can but you have to say be more precise in you..."

"They say that the Directive could require them to replace thousands of pieces of equipment all over the country."

"I feel like there's a little bit of kick the can around on who's responsible for what."
