From the transcript
So I do have correspondence with ISO that says that removal of the training facility itself and not reestablishing it would drop us by like 0.37 points. So not quite a full point, but just that by itself is enough to drop us into the next category because we're just got our toes into Class 4. For quick primer on ISO, it's a rating 1 through 10. We are a Class 4 community, so, and we're just over the line. Any effect in our current operations without supplementing it with something else would be enough to push us to Class 5.
