Was there an issue on that or the liner, the warehouse or the temperature, like the actual production as well? Was that all in spec or was there a low fill? Was there just like, did they not fill it up to high enough or did they fill it too high? And that was a problem, right? Like all these things that you would also look at.
11:32
Yeah, there's lots of things.
11:33
And these are all those things, Ben, that I take into account as well.
11:37
So you're constantly looking at things that can cause a potential leaker.
11:42
Even though I point out the same, which again, most of the time is the root cause, you want to ensure that there's nothing else that's contributing to it.
11:49
So for example, we'll take a look at a formula.
11:52
And if there's high levels of copper or high chlorides, those can be contributing factors to corrosion.

But I mean, you must have some advice for brands about like, I need to look at this stuff before I sign an agreement.
1:33
What would you say would be the most conservative, realistic, point in the pro forma that I should show an influx of cash through the bonds.
1:46
Well, you know, there's a big difference between financing improvements and financing fees.
1:52
Okay.
1:53
If you're financing fees, you're generally going to be at a latter stage of development where you're ready to pull building permits because that's when you pull fees.
2:02
So the pro forma with fees is fairly simple.
2:06
Number one, I get reimbursed for all the fees up front that I've already paid.
2:10
Number two, I'm going to not have to pay those fees at building permit.

10:32
great
11:17
What was the most effective?
11:19
We cannot really single out in terms of the strategies that we applied.
11:24
Uh, it has to be a collective execution of all phases.
11:29
While the island-wide spraying was happening, uh, there is very focused spraying as well.
11:35
Uh, what that means is, uh, where the resident of a positive case is located and our public health staff has to spray around the positive case resident up to 200 meters radius of the neighboring houses.
11:51
So it's a combination of those response actions, uh, which I think helped us to bring the outbreak under control.
12:07
Had a lot of people worried, and lots of tourists were also reportedly going home with dengue as well.
12:14
well.Yeah, so during that period, uh, because, uh, I have to let my staff take the break as well, uh, given that, uh, they have been working continuously for a number of months.
3:29
Bob, how about you? Same question.
3:32
Okay.
3:32
Well, um, I'm a managing director here at RBC Capital Markets.
3:36
Uh, I am involved all, in all of our California land-secured, uh, transactions.
3:43
Um, I have-- I started my career way back in 1985, and I have been doing land-secured business in California since 1985.
3:54
Started a lot of that business in the Central Valley.
3:57
Um, initially I was with Sutro, which was an old San Francisco kind of California, um, investment bank.
