From the transcript
I think it's been made pretty clear on the, the ownership to 7525 and then on the sub components, the pipeline, the treatment plant, liquefaction plant. But there is some other concerns that some of us have at the table when it's referenced to the state. You know, a lot of it's really easy to assume it come into the legislature, but there has been some interest in accessing other entities of the state if it's the Alaska Railroad, if it's ada, if it's a permanent fund. So there is concern on the structure and how that would be executed. There's also, it appears to be significant risk level differences between the first phase, the pipeline and then the second phase, which would be the liquefaction and the conditioning plant on the North Slope.
