WATANABE: Now we have Agenda Item 5 to deal with. I’d like to take five minutes. But, you know, before we take that five minutes I had indicated earlier that I do have some suggestions. It’s based on I believe a neighboring SMA Permit that we did issue. I recall that particular incident. And if you don’t mind this, I’m not trying to railroad anything, I would like to pass that out so that you all can review that. It’s just a draft. It’s one person’s initial proposal. I thought I’d work on something like that so that, you know, we could proceed a little faster possibly; and so if you don’t mind during the recess I’ll hand that out or give a copy to staff, etc. Okay, thank you.
