Thanks, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Chairman, I apologize again for being late. I cover another committee, but I'm very much interested.
At the risk of going over some of the material that has been the source and subject of questioning, my question is sort of in the spirit of Mr. Trost's question with respect to macro-planning the larger entity. It seems to me that as a result of the ice storm and as a result of the blackout that affected the eastern seaboard, and because of the north-south orientation of our primary grid--the distribution grid--there's an opportunity to evaluate the integrated capacity of hydro and wind as we start to readjust from a north-south grid to an east-west grid, particularly regionally, in the eastern part of the country. And I know this is a kind of superficial take on a very complex issue.
Where does the planning with respect to that kind of macro-adjustment take place? It's a provincial, federal, and even a state issue. It's not so much with respect to the legislative architecture; it's a whole combination of issues. Is there some approach that's being taken, as we speak, with respect to the strategic repositioning of our grid and the role that hydro and wind can play? How is that all being dynamically brought together?
