Thank you for the question.
I guess this started out with a request for expenditure to increase the capacity of the refinery, and that started out as a $1.9 billion project that has now grown to a $2.6 billion project. As we moved forward, we knew that our reserves and the earning potential wouldn't cover that, so we had to outsource. We actually have a syndicated loan with chartered banks and some of the other participants you've had around this witness table, to fund that expansion. That was fine. We're large enough and the project is going to be significant enough that they're willing to participate in that, so we're quite excited.
With regard to the other capital projects, we're probably going to put in close to $3.5 billion with that refinery expansion. And then of course you have to have some place to send that product to, so you have to build corporate bulk plants all across the west; you have to have facilities and the equipment to be able to deliver it out to the consumer, so there's a significant investment. Some of that is of course being funded through reserves, profitability, through our member retails who also have reserves and profitability. They make investments.
So together, that's the size and scope of our operations.
