I can say that people are talking about that. The average height where we're draining is declining about an inch an hour, maybe even a little bit more than that. And We know that we're seeing dewatering of about 6,000, maybe slightly more than that, gallons per minute. So there's a lot of water that's being drained, but there's also massive amount in there that still needs to be drained. So my senses will have more information to share later in the day. (20:51–20:59)

CLAIM
