We have in front of us, I guess, requests to utilize the treatment plant down here to, in fact, discharge their night soil and so forth. And we have three new candidates. One of which I believe is taking over business from a former owner of the business.

So the first one is Rodenheiser, septic of Holliston, Mass.

We know, it's my understanding too, Paul, that all three have been given temporary approval to start utilizing the system, right? Yes. So I gave them temporary approval administratively to allow them to start dumping at our facility. Plus, it also gives us a little bit of time to evaluate to make sure there's no issues with them. Good point.

All right. So the first company is Rodenheiser, septic.

1:11:43
They've never been here before, I'm assuming? Not prior to this request, though.

1:11:49
So they're based out of Holliston, Mass. Yeah. Coming down a long way, I guess they're really trying to get their feet in the door around here. Yeah.

1:12:00
Okay. We've spelled out the things, I guess, that's required of them.
In

1:12:07
Yep. So we require them to submit a letter to us requesting. We review that.

1:12:13
We do some background checks on the company. Then we issue them a copy of what's required, the septic hauler regulations.

1:12:25
Their trucks need to be inspected by the health department to be able to travel over the city roads. If all that's completed, I'll issue them the temporary, and then it comes to the board. Okay. At the present time, approximately how many haulers do you think we got pulling into this place?
In

1:12:47
Coming into here? In terms of the companies. Yeah, I would say we probably have 15 to 20 different companies right now. 15 to 20? Yes. Okay. Yes.
