Environment committee No. I think we're fine with what we're dealing with right now. Thank you.

Environment committee That's a good question. No, we haven't. Our focus has been to work with and comply with the Province of Ontario. In 2007 the Ministry of the Environment launched the environmental screening process for waste management projects. It's regulation 101-07. So we met the requirement

Environment committee Basically what comes out of our stack is carbon dioxide, water vapours; really no different from what you're doing when you're combusting natural gas. We'll have a process where the majority of any compounds in the waste or in the syngas will be dealt with through oxidation and c
