I want to thank the drafting team, including members from virtually every constituency, stakeholder group, the ALAC, the IOC and RCRC for working so diligently through the week with the expectation that the Council would be voting on this motion. The GAC has been truly appreciative of the efforts of this group and of the council for handling this so expeditiously with an eye towards implementation in the current round. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-top:6.0pt;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Jeffrey J.
