From the transcript
Mr. Carpenter, thank you. Thank you for allowing me. I know the question's been called, but it's an interesting point you bring up, Mr. Lee, that the board can consider an ACR if it's predominantly allocative as long as there's new information that's been provided To me, new information is not something that was thrown out by somebody at the Department of Law. New information would be something that the board has brought to the attention, and I haven't heard anything personally that's different than the conversation that we had when 141 was passed. So to me, rationalizing that and saying that this isn't predominantly allocated based on that criteria, I don't, I don't think that this meets that threshold at all.
