From the transcript

Thank you. I think I heard you say on the tail end, Bill, there in this budget cycle, we are attempting to get rid of the BSSA deficit. In the 2027. Through the chair, we have to go through the 2027 budget development in order to determine how and exactly how much of the BSSA can be transitioned during the 2027 budget. It's the intention to clear all of it, but I think while we're finalizing the ACFR and working through '27 development, we'll have more information about how we're actually able to do that.
