Long days, nights and weekends that span months and then years. But even with all the uncertainty, with all the loss, the hardship, difficult decisions and tough calls, we got through it. And With the federal aid that came our way in the aftermath, we, all of us strengthened 246 water treatment systems, supported over 600 businesses, created nearly 2,000 homes, protected 3,500 acres with climate change mitigation projects and improved broadband for over 100,000 households and businesses. And this money is still funding projects. So there's more to come. We've had some success on a smaller scale as well. (34:15–34:41)
