They're supposed to be at their site, manning the station, doing patrols of the lobby to check the doors to make sure that they're secure, keeping out any intruders to the buildings, obviously working with our TA presidents if if they have any concerns.

And, of course, you know, if an emergency does happen at the development, are to call 911 and, of course, reach out to their company to let them know that that emergency happened at the development.
