Yeah, so, I mean, you know, I had the conversation. Usda, they do have a separate licensing, but, you know, if you lose your state license, you're not able to sell to other facilities. But USDA was equally concerned, based on their bad track record, that they shouldn't be able to sell. So that still is something that they told me that they've dealt with the facility on. So I can't speak for what information they've got or not, but I know the USDA specifically said. (10:14–10:21)
