From the transcript

Through the chair, I believe the answer is, um, there of course are ways to off-ramp projects. The question is, how do we want to do that when it takes, you know, anywhere between 1 to 10 years to get funded? If you were supposed to be on that list, when, when do we put our hand in the middle of it and say, nah, it's too late for you, never mind? And, and so I think refining how that works is something that should be done in terms of how can we guarantee if moving forward we aren't continuing down a path just because we already started it. I think that is a government question across the board and figuring out how to high-grade those choices is something PCC can help us do.
