Judge Treviño, commissioners, thank you very much for allowing me the time to be here this morning. I know I don't have very much time so I'm going to jump right into this.
The first thing that I wanted to start off with was safety. Safety is our number one concern with regards to community, with regards to our employees, and with regards to the environment. There's a number of things that we're doing. All people on site today and all people that will be working in operations have a mandate that if they see something unsafe, they have the obligation to stop work. So, if there's a maintenance person or a person mowing the lawn, if they see something unsafe, they can stop work.
Additionally, all the tanks once are built are full containment tanks, meaning that if there was a rupture in the tank, there's enough space within the outer tank to hold 100% of the capacity of that tank.
Additionally, LNG is not explosive. It's not propane, it's not butane. It's not stored under pressure. It's not volatile. It's not flammable in its liquid form. It's not corrosive, it's not toxic. So, we have all of that and we're building the facility to mitigate risk to the community, to mitigate risk to our employees and to the environment. When you look at LNG ships, these are some of the most robust machines on the planet.
