For local law one nine nine, some of the some of the things well, I would love to hear more about the data more market consolidation feels like the uncertainty that was caused by the pause is what has forced people to sell or make rash decisions because they simply just weren't sure what was gonna happen and we've been harping on that for a very very long time.

I feel like that is a nature that was always going to be something that happened, but I feel like what has happened was the creation of DSNY's pause.

So I just wanted to say that as a comment, but I'd really like to know more about the data that you've collected, vehicle miles, the amounts of waste disposed and recycled from businesses, tracking transfers, you know, which transfer recycling facilities, compost or digesting facilities, waste from Central Queen Zone is traveling to, tonnage, you know, what can you tell us?
