Senator Brown, that is not the interpretation that I would place on it. It refers back to the requirements of the 1999 act, which was updated in 2005 and does include the involvement of environmental groups.
I am not trying to be difficult about this paragraph that we are seeking. Please don’t get me wrong in that respect; I am genuinely trying to find the paragraph. It may be that the documents that we have are formatted in a different way, but we cannot at the moment find the words that you quoted. If you would like to run through them again for me, I can perhaps identify them in my document.
