That's the deadline there.

And then probably not right away, but at some point in the future, the transmission project will file at the PUC for a certificate of public convenience and necessity, which is CPCN in our many acronyms.

And then what I didn't have on there is there will also be local, state, and federal permitting required.

I mean, one benefit we did see of this particular transmission project is it has site control for I think the entirety of its length so hopefully that will facilitate its development.

And one of the factors that caused us to select the project we did was that it already had site control.

And my hope is the developers are working with the stakeholders along the way and bringing them along because it is a risk that could prevent a project from going forward.

One thing I would just add to what Carrie, you said, and from your CPCN slide, there is, and again, this is way early, we all know, you know, in terms of what state law is and whether any bills will get put in, but for somewhat obscure statute for CPCN, but that the developer with a CPCN, if there is a planning board, you have to go through a planning board process, and if a planning board says no, The developer then goes to the commission who can essentially overrule it if they deem the project, I think it's to be in the public interest.
Jeff ThalerMODERATOR

I don't remember the exact wording of the statute.
