I'd like to hear an update about Homeport II and what is happening there.
1:30:31
So if you could just talk to me about where it is, we haven't been seeing any activity and I'd love to know what's going on.
James Wong
1:30:39
Sure.
1:30:40
Thank you for those comments.
1:30:42
And really appreciate the advocacy that that you provided here.

As it relates to Homeport 2, we have so there have been sort of the project is broken up into 2 main components, an in water component, and then an Upland's component.
1:30:57
The in water component, as you may have seen and noticed, is largely completed.
1:31:02
So the piles where the vessels would get tied up, including the travel lift area where a vessel would eventually be pulled out of the water.
1:31:11
Those have actually been completed.
1:31:13
That was leading because we had gone through some additional design and permitting and coordination with all the different players in this area for the warehouse and the utilities that are happening.
1:31:25
We do hope to be breaking ground on that later either later this year or early next year and we're happy to provide more follow-up with your office as soon as we have a more tight schedule now.
