From the transcript
So, through the Chair, Representative Sadler, what feels like months ago, I spoke to the Gas Line Caucus. I don't remember the exact date and probably the words you're referring to are the fact that at this point today, NSTAR is 18 days short of gas, which is the equivalent of 3 BCF. And that's for normal temperatures. And the rationale behind that and how we come to that calculation is we had a certain expectation of gas deliveries from the Cook Inlet at the beginning of the year. One of those— I guess one of those groupings of volumes was from Bluecrest.
