I believe in the case of Richmond, B.C., there are numerous solutions here that will keep the freight running smoothly while addressing resident concerns. In the specific example of Richmond, B.C., over the past few years CN has built a new shunting yard directly south of this one. It is in a solely industrial area. Around March of this year, it was observed that freight from that yard was being brought into this yard in the middle of the night. We were hoping that maybe it would be the inverse of that.
Some of the solutions for Richmond, B.C., would be simply examining the existing infrastructure of the yard here and how it's operated. Some changes to the actual layout of the yard would result in substantial noise reductions, we believe. Looking at the actual scheduling of the yard itself, we believe there's some leeway and latitude for rail companies to perform some of the work that's being done in the middle of the night done at a more reasonable time.
A lot of what needs to happen here...I heard the term “better choices” being used earlier in this discussion, and I would come back to that as being a core point I'd like to make. There are choices available, and it's a matter of being able to discuss them. I'd like to point out that we've not been able to discuss those with CN because we've been turned down for mediation.
