So quick question youve not decides on the location yet. Thats correct. I think 8 of the actual crossing have been identified its unclear how many of the beacons are needs so if theres additional beacons that do not need to go into the 8 crossing then an additional cross kro crossing will be identified. Do you know where those 8 are. I think thats on its in the enclosure for this item if you have page number it starts on page 81 would i like me to list them off. In general. We know where the 8 locations are and the next 3 locations are at. And for reprehensive in the enclosure those locations are list on page 82. Supervisor yee a question.
