I call this meeting to order.
I'd like to thank our guests for taking time out of their busy schedules to meet with us today.
We're studying closed containment salmon aquaculture, and we look forward to your thoughts and your views. The committee members, I know, have many questions and look forward to your presentations. Following that, we'll move to committee members' questions.
I'm not sure if the clerk has advised you, but we allot approximately 10 minutes for presentations. It's my understanding we have two presentations here this afternoon, and whenever you are ready we'll move directly to your presentations.
Mr. Scott is going to go first, I believe.
Mr. Scott, whenever you're ready, please proceed.
