Thank you.

I want to go on to the current flare issue, which, it sounds to me, is a problem largely created by the federal government. It mandates these flares. I think you said you need six. They last for five years. They need to be on every boat.

While the government is saying that yes, you have to have these flares, they're not giving any solution to what to do with them after five years. Am I correct there, Mr. Thomson?
