Yes, I do, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The kinds of things we’re talking about are that northern regulators would conduct the review of applications for authorizations and complete any requirements for hearings or consultations once the proponents conduct additional route alignment studies and detailed engineering. Technical expertise on the regulatory mitigation approaches to addressing air quality, waste management, hazardous materials management, spills planning, and environmental planning issues associated with oil and gas and pipeline construction activities will be required to handle the workload...

The draft Hydro Strategy was released approximately two years ago and we expect to have a finalized Hydro Strategy in 2011.
