Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all of our witnesses for your appearance here today and for your testimony.
Mr. Maki, I would like to begin with you.
The project initially was purchased for $4.5 billion, with construction costs at roughly $5.3 billion, for a total of just under $10 billion. It quickly escalated to $12 billion. The next report was $20 billion; then it was $30 billion, and now it's $34 billion.
Can you confirm to this committee that this is the end cost of this project?
