From the transcript

Must be scheduled to begin operations within 2 years after commencement of operations of a major component of the main project. Must connect with local distribution infrastructure. That last point, there was some concern that potentially a spur line could bypass Fairbanks and just go to a military base or some other industrial base, the bill does require that it connect with the local distribution infrastructure. Costs for the spur line may not be allocated solely to the interior of the state. So those would be— those costs would be shared system-wide within the in-state customers.
