And what potentially embarrassing issues still remain that lawmakers in the media will widely publicize . We have a draft report on the maintenance issues and it still needs some work. So were going to take a few more weeks and work on it and get it in the shape we want so it fulfills our purposes of laying out the issues we are worried about when we maintain this bridge. The final report will focus on extra maintenance brought on by defects such as the broken bolts and extra maintenance brought on by the unique design. This will have unusual maintenance expenditures. But, those expenditures are going to pay dividends because they are going to allow us to keep this state of the art bridge in state of the art shape so that it serves us well in the event of the large earthquake.
