In Rhode Island, we have proposed to construct a 10,000-ton per year manufacturing facility to service the entire Rhode Island market. We are working with the Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corporation, the agency responsible for managing solid waste in the state, to build a facility on the state-owned and operated landfill, thereby greatly reducing the time associated with permitting and construction.
The Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corporation has reviewed the technology we have licensed and has included it as an option in the 2006 update to its solid waste plan. We are negotiating a term sheet with the Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corporation for a facility and expect to reach an agreement by the end of the third quarter in 2006.
