The reports I have read agree that there has been contamination, while at the same time they state that there's no evidence of harm to human health. What I want to do is update the 2017 study to ensure that this evidence is updated and to ensure that the three nations have the opportunity to engage in the process themselves. That is a commitment I made to them during our first call, during our meeting yesterday. I've given them my personal phone number, and it must be done in partnership, utilizing indigenous methodologies as well.
