So I would anticipate it being closer to $650,000 to construct the building, pour the concrete for the footing and all that, which just makes it that much more expensive and that much harder on the borough, which I don't— I do not— or I sympathize with you guys on because there are many borough budget items affecting the borough right now, and this is just yet one more thing. But so we're trying to keep costs down wherever we can. Next slide, please. So this is what's My current costs for moving the equipment, D&D has started.
