We're replacing approximately 30,000 square feet of existing deteriorated roofing with a new modified by two minutes roofing system, we will increase insulation to meet current energy codes. As part of that piece, we are replacing roof drains, area, dividers, flashings, that sort of thing. We are also replacing three mechanical units. Those are being in kind to meet efficiencies. And last we are adding metal wall panels to a mechanical mezzanine. This is a project in continuation of previous work. We've done at the district to upgrade the roofing and mezzanine areas at the a campus.

Speaker 8     00:07:43    I can answer that work is expected to commence right after graduation. Probably between June 24th and probably July 5th or sixth. Right after 4th of July work would be substantially a complete by the end of the summer, August 26th with maybe some minimal punchless work occurring in September.
