Also, the 200 billion that are going to be from direct federal spending, we know from the white house infrastructure advisor, they are going to ask for money from existing federal accounts, and when you reach the 200 billion mark, that would incentivize 800 billion in privatesector funds. Now, that is a different debate whether or not you can reach that mark over 10 years. Also 25 billion will be allocated for rural projects. 3t is very difficult to get a p polling facility to be profitable along rural highways. Then you will have a real push on the part of the white house and the administration to streamline environmental for construction projects, these big Infrastructure Projects.
