Yeah. I think the open seasons that we've had to date have been, you know, constructive. You know, the things that we need to do are to be able to turn, you know, those open seasons and the pricing and the terms into an agreement that we can then, you know, turn it and build upon. You know, right now, the timing is perfect. You know, we're able to put in the compression. We can expand our existing facilities. You know, that, obviously, that put more brownfield expansion a little bit cheaper to come to market than a greenfield. But the pricing we're seeing, you know, gives us confidence that being able to, you know, develop this fourth cavern, you know, is certainly, you know, possible in the future, and we're working towards that. You know, as far as timelines go, you know, we've already said, you know, we're going to double earnings through 2027. Then, you know, we're working, you know, after we get our first certificate construction through the facility. So then you see, you know, the existing tower expansion and capacity, you know, come to market with that matching contract and, like, a 2028 time frame, and then fourth cavern expansion as this market develops. You know, like I said, you know, certainly recent events are supportive. Looks like, you know, 2029 time frame, you know, starting construction, obviously, sometime prior to that. So we'll have to, you know, see how that ends up playing out. But like I said, the open season's recent market, you know, volatility all points towards the need for more storage in that area and know that we're pursuing that aggressively.
