And so, there is no expenditure obviously, but you are getting money. And the question is i think that one of these goes back to 2010, how have we been carrying these projected expenditures from that time and why were they just discovered and coming back . This becomes important because the credibility of the district in negotiation relies on it saying that it is following, you know, that it is actu
