From the transcript
The option that we're talking about here is— will be provided to the state of Alaska in whole. And what I mean by that is not only to the state legislature, but also to Alaskan corporations and hopefully Alaskans themselves. So this was an option that we negotiated with Glenfarm to allow then the opportunity for the state and its citizens and its corporations, should they want to invest in the project, But the project will proceed without Alaskans' investment if they don't want to. So that's, that's a key consideration. It's not a requirement.
