"if you had a shorter-term abatement in, you know, Texas or Louisiana, you'd factor in the cost burden on the project during that 10 years, which would be zero. And then for the remainder of the term, you'd calculate whatever the— whatever the region— whatever the jurisdictional tax is at that time. And the differentiation is those are not— those are not 20 mils in those jurisdictions, and so those are not so negative towards the project."

What are the mechanisms they use to apply those to their total project finance with the abatements not necessarily lasting the full term of their likely 20-year debt? Senator Keelthru, the chair. Similar to what I'm describing, so if you had a shorter-term abatement in, you know, Texas or Louisiana, you'd factor in the cost burden on the project during that 10 years, which would be zero. And then for the remainder of the term, you'd calculate whatever the— whatever the region— whatever the jurisdictional tax is at that time. And the differentiation is those are not— those are not 20 mils in those jurisdictions, and so those are not so negative towards the project.
