I want to express concern about the last part of that statement, the part that says, “and that any new proceedings to be added be agreed upon by each recognized party.”
I wonder whether every incremental step needs to be approved by every party. I think that would stall or could potentially stall that process. Without that, I would be fully supportive of this recommendation. I think it's a good recommendation, especially the part about “recognizing capacity constraints, the need for testing, and the need for improvements”.
