I want to come back to this issue of the prevailing standards and conditions within that industry. The words 'within that industry' give me the impression that we are talking about a national set of standards. The industry operates across state borders—the construction industry, the building industry—but there are some areas where certain standards are established because of the nature of the industry within a state. How do you then determine what is consistent with the prevailing standards and conditions within that industry?
