From the transcript
Um, they— there is a provision in code that we can, um, as a commission, if operations don't start within a year, because they do have a year to kick forward, um, this would be something we could bring back in approximately a year to grant them an extension for good cause. And I think getting the licensing, um, because that is a lengthy period, um, that would be something we would bring back when we get close to the 1-year mark. But, um, I think them showing that they're getting all their ducks in a row and, um, getting themselves ready, um, I don't think it would be a hard ask for an extension, um, about this time next year. And just to clarify, is that administrative, or do they have to come back and fill out more forms and pay another fee? Uh, there would be no fee.
