The $3.1 million you're talking about, which is called the contribution program, is included in the $10.6 million. The $3.1 million we're talking about here is actually for the assistance given to groups that have been given party status before the commission so they can retain professional help to allow them to make their case in front of the commission. There are 15 of those groups that have been given grants and they have hired lawyers.
