Good morning and so we have a full quorum, just a reminder we've started each of these meetings that we've held virtually with the notice that given the unprecedented circumstances resulted from the global coronavirus pandemic Governor Baker issued in order to provide limited relief from certain provisions of the open meeting law to protect the safety of the individuals interested in attending our public meetings. In keeping with the guidance provided the Commission will conduct this public meeting unit utilizing remote collaborative technology and if there's any technical problem with our remote connection we will give advice on our website as to next steps. This meeting is being reported and I just of course want to be remiss if I didn't make reflect a little bit on the enormity of the impact of the pandemic on massachusetts monday as we all noted marked a death toll here in the commonwealth that exceeded 3 000 so we keep those individuals their families and of course their caregivers medical personnel who treated them in our thoughts. Thank you of course to all the frontline in our state and local leadership for working tirelessly to restore our safety and hopefully a sense of normalcy whatever that may be in the future over the shortest amount of time that makes good sense based on important benchmarks and data. So the one thing about Boston and the commonwealth we are a resilient crowd and I thank our team for being a great example of that and thank you for being a part. With that we have an agenda-setting meeting today we'll get started unless there's anything else that one of my my fellow commissioners wish to add at this time. I can actually see all five right now so it's great thank you. So getting started called to order today's meeting officially public meeting number 75 and as it started today on April 29th at 10 a.m. we do have minutes for approval. Thank you Madam Chair in the packet that was sent out to everybody you have the minutes from the April 15th 2020 agenda-setting meeting would move their approval subject to any correction for types of applicable errors or any other numbness. Are there any questions or edits for Sharon Bruce? Okay do I have a motion? That can be in motion. Commissioner Cameron thank you. All those in favor roll call. Commissioner Bryan. Aye. Commissioner Cameron. Aye. Commissioner Zuniga. Aye. And uh Commissioner Stebbins. Oh no. Aye. And I go um yes so five zero thank you. From now move on to item number three of our agenda-setting planning meeting and we'll start by going through the notes.  Interim Executive Director. Just to unmute I am here ma'am. Isn't it fun to be actually to to be part of so many notes that are going around the universe right now on our own. I'm new I can't find the recording button it's just we're only contributing to to the norm right now. Good morning Karen. Good morning. So item number one um uh for the right now we have May 7th marked up as our next uh commission meeting although we do have two meetings this week one this afternoon a short one as well as now on Friday. Right so I would recommend we'll just keep the administrative update I do not expect we'll have the same format where I bring in uh directors to come and give um sort of highlights from that department given what's going on right now but there may be things just to update the full commission on so we'll keep that on the agenda. Okay great thank you. Moving on to number two um for the next meeting or the future meeting Todd um our interim general counsel do Mr. Gressman do you have any any um regulations that you'll be reporting on? Yes hi good morning everyone um there were there are a couple actually I'd like to uh raise first yesterday uh April 28th the commission conducted a public hearing on two sets of regulations that are now ready uh for final commission review those were uh first those that pertain to the clarification of the use of sealed records uh which you'll recall and the second pertain to certain updates to the VSE regs and specifically the reinstatement process um both of those have now fully gone through the promulgation process and are ready for again final commission review um and if uh appropriate there we can put them on the next agenda. Todd I I have just out of curiosity I have a question did we get any participation uh in the hearing uh yesterday? We did um specifically on the use of sealed records we got a couple of very insightful uh comments um relative to the use specifically of juvenile records uh which we're going to take a closer look at um there are written comments uh that you can take a look at in advance uh and I would certainly encourage everyone to do because I think they're very well done um and we will of course look at the legality and some of the legal issues raised in there um but I think ultimately we'll be ready to go on Thursday um essentially the comments were supportive of what the commission is doing um with the the draft regs they're asking that you go one step further and essentially uh prescribe the use of juvenile records in any form but that's that's an issue that I think the commission should really discuss next Thursday. I'm wondering Todd I did um I did listen to those comments and thank the three individuals who participated I'm wondering so for next Thursday you're suggesting that you will have you um and the reticulus also there um as well as the rest of the legal team you'll take that input and then we um it could uh will you be making amendments to what we reviewed in the past and I'm just trying to understand the rulemaking process. Sure. Could they be substantive enough that it may one require um further maybe more than one meeting is what I'm wondering and then do we have any obligation to you know to get back to those individuals before or we just hear them and then we incorporate there's no more there's not another step if we change it that's what I'm wondering right you know to get back right. I don't I don't think there's a legal obligation I think practically speaking we will be in communication with those folks they've been engaged in the process really for many years on this particular issue and um I think you hit the nail on the head when it comes to what the issue is I think there's two parts the first is the use of the sealed records is all teed up and ready for final adoption I don't see any reason why you couldn't if you're so inclined adopt the amendments to the regulations pertaining just to the seal the use of the sealed records when it comes to juvenile records if the commission is inclined to make any adjustment to the present regulations we would have to review whether that's within the scope of the issues raised as part of the sealed record process and if so you could make adjustments we're in the same section so that's the good news so it's it's before you whether we think it's included in the scope or not is a slightly different question whether it would be fair whether people were put on notice that that could be done or not and if not we can always just commence a new review process and and what have you but I think at a minimum you can look at the sealed record portion for final review so that's a madam chair are those two sets of rags there's the one further one and I'll maybe ask commissioner brian and attorney to receive it to add in here as to whether we're ready to move forward with the authority of the commission to act in and at the event of an emergency which you'll recall you considered at your last meeting we did put that out for comment to the licensees and we may be ready to move forward with those as well and for may 7th as well I think we might be close with those depending upon everyone's sense so I carry did forward me some feedback and comments at the end of the day yesterday I having a chance to go through them I read the summary and so I think we can keep it on for the 7th right now but I have not actually done a deep dive to see comments back from all three licensees nothing major pretty minor changes that I think we should be able to get it in good shape for next week okay so those would be the three sets of regulations and if it's okay to move forward with those we can get some language over to Mary and for the agenda excellent thank you that's all for now okay item number three dr. like them that is talking about what to do as far as live racing at main ridge park casino goes right now they're scheduled to open June 1st with the governor's latest order that may not be practical and we've got in conversations with chris mackerel in from plain ridge and we have a meeting scheduled with the horseman this Friday to have further discussions about it okay thank you so and of course we will be addressing part of that issue on Friday as well at our 10 a.m. meeting with respect to the governor's order so do you want to keep this on for five seven we I know we promised that community the horse community to to get back to them through a meeting does five seven still work for you I think so the meeting this Friday just covers the simulcasting and account wagering so you know we'll certainly have the conversations with them on Friday and you know they'll be we'll all be aware of each other's positions at that point and then can bring it up for the seventh okay excellent thanks we'll keep that on then moving on to number four we are addressing the independent monitors baseline report deadline this afternoon at one so I I think we'll just keep that on hold for right now and once we have our public meeting on that to get issue we can address whether five seven continues to work item number five that's the six month public safety report mark and commissioners Cameron and O'Brien hi good morning be ready for that if that's still the desire of the commission to bring that before on the seventh excellent commissioners Cameron and O'Brien you're all set with that as well yeah I see no reason why we can't continue with business and and talk about this get this report out mark you agree right I do I do it's it's um we should be set we repeat that mark we you froze sorry I will get you the final report very soon excellent and that will include the executive summary correct excellent and uh yeah so five seven as soon as you can get it to us we'll appreciate reading time yes thanks I'll set with that Karen yes okay good um and then item number six back to Alex this is on the lakes yes I'm not sure if we'll be ready um for the seventh or not but if we could leave it on there for now in case we are ready to discuss where they may want to race next year still trying to gather information on that I mean this year that they would race this year good thank you we'll keep it on item um number seven we'd like to see sexual harassment policies we have that marked up for the 21st um Gail and Eileen yes uh Commissioner O'Brien unless you disagree nothing has changed since we put a put this on the schedule to to talk about so I think we're prepared to do that yeah I mean unless there's the reason we need space on the 21st I think we can keep it on the 21st would um if um and we decided that would it not would it be ready for the seventh if that were if that were an available time as well I have to go over everything but I think so yeah I believe all the work's been done and changes have been made after meetings with licensees um I think we're prepared to talk about it Commissioner um Carey would you like to jump in and make sure since you've been doing the legal changes for this project yeah I know that we were prepared to present this um at a meeting a couple months ago so I know that it's ready I just would have to refresh my memory about other people we were um I know that we were going to have our outside council our Employment Outside Council um Colin so I just want to check and see if she's available and just refresh my memory about other details related to the presentation okay yeah I think availability on um the outside council is going to be important so once we firm up a date then um we can we can confirm to the commission meeting okay right now we'll keep it on for the 21st okay okay and then um commissioners O'Brien and commissioners Cameron we'll put with Karen if there needs to be any switching around okay thank thank you thanks for the excellent work um item number eight the quarterly reports which we know on a little bit of a different cadence right now um Karen and Joe yeah um Madam Chair my thinking on this is you know we should take a look at what the uh sort of the minimum requirements are and uh General Counsel Grossman's prepared to discuss that given that the casinos are closed right now there's not exactly the same kind of information available to report so this may be a time to sort of take a time out and take the look at the statutory and regulatory requirements what exactly is required and then the commission can look at what what do you want during this time period is there anything beyond those requirements that you really need right now given uh what uh the industry and the regulators are going through right now so um it's your permission I think if we turn it over to a General Counsel Grossman he can give you an overview of what the law is and then we can jump off from there Joe does that make sense to you I want to give you a chance to chime in as well yeah yeah I think that's fine why don't we let Todd go and then I'll give a quick update on my discussions with the licensees okay that sounds good great well I'm happy to run through the statute and the regulations welcome anyone to jump in as we move along here and I know you don't have the materials in front of you so I'll try not to read too much uh in-depth language but I'll I'll hit some of what I think is pertinent the quarterly report uh is first mentioned in the statute in section five of chapter 23k you'll recall that's the section of the law that sets out the minimum regulations that the law directs the commission to adopt so section five says in in pertinent part anyway that the commission shall promulgate regulations for the implementation administration enforcement of this chapter including without limitation regulations that require financial reports and so and then it goes into annual audits too but uh the the law is clear that the commission needed to adopt regulations requiring quarterly financial reports and that's all the statute requires which is helpful to bear in mind as we move forward here so following that directive the commission did just uh as it was uh asked to do and in 205 cmr 139.06 the commission set out the filing of quarterly reports it's broken down into two essential parts the regulation is the first is essentially a narrative and descriptive portion of the licensees financial position and the second is a certification by the licensee cfo as to the truth of certain statements relating to the licensee's financial stability so section 139.06 was intended essentially to bear some conceptual similarity to the 10q filing that's required uh with the sec by public companies but to apply it to the licensee or the llc level not to repeat things that have already been filed by the parent company with the llc but to give the commission a snapshot as to the financial position of the licensees on a quarterly basis notably there's no requirement that there be a public presentation of any kind or anything like that just that the report be submitted to the commission the quarterly reports you've seen historically that process just developed organically and it's certainly been useful and helpful and in many ways interesting but the rules are very specific as to what is actually required and we can go a little bit into the regulation if that would be helpful but it's important to bear in mind that since it is a regulatory requirement if necessary and helpful to the commission and the licensees we also have a variance process that would allow the commission to modify this requirement in any way on a limited basis here assuming certain standards were met and we can get into that a little bit as well but without reading the whole thing to you I can I'll just read a few pieces of the regulation that may be helpful so this is 139.06 paragraph one it says on a quarterly basis the gaming licensee shall create a report that provides a continuing view of the gaming licensee's financial position including key performance measures narrative commentary on operating results and we're applicable the capital reserve account contributions made in accordance with the plan that was submitted and that has to be attested by two essentially executives of the LLC or the company so that's paragraph one and then paragraph two says the quarterly report shall be accompanied by a statement attested to by the gaming licensee's CFO or the functional equivalent and then it identifies four things that the CFO has to attest to one that the licensee has maintained and in the previous quarter and has the ability in the upcoming quarter to maintain a gaming bank roll adequate to pay winning wagers be that the licensee has paid in the previous quarter and has the ability to pay any local state and federal taxes including taxes on gross gaming revenue and any fees imposed by the commission under 23k or 205 cmr paragraph c that has the ability to make annual capital expenditure contributions as discussed in the law and paragraph d that it has the ability to pay exchange refinance or extend debts including long-term and short-term principal and interest and capital lease obligations which will mature otherwise come due and payable during the license term etc etc so there are four things essentially in part two that the licensee CFO is required to attest to so that's the that's what the law requires the financial the quarterly report to look like and the commission does have some flexibility in this regard so those are the points I thought might be helpful to make and can also of course answer any questions or or look at any specific provisions a little more closely if that would be helpful joe do you want to give some information on what you've learned from the licensees sure so I talked with boncourt and with mgm regarding this item and as you might imagine they are not they would prefer to not file quarterly reports if they could they understand that there are some regulatory requirements there and if the commission does require that they file a report they are asking that it be kept to the minimum information that's required and also that they would not have to you know present that in public at this point in time you know and I think that the point that both of them made sort of in support of that that notion that they not have to file these reports is saying you know what are we actually going to glean from these reports you know we already know what their gross gaming revenues are we know some of these other things of what their situation is and the question was sort of well what what utility would this report actually have for the commission other than to check a box that says from a regulatory requirement that this needs to be done you know and I think I would tend to agree with that interpretation and maybe we could defer this first quarter report and once they're back open they can do a first and second quarter report or whatever that that would summarize that period of time so you know it's some food for thought but but I guess that there was a little bit of reluctance on the part of our our licensees to have to have to do that if it's not absolutely necessary so Karen what are you recommending and also my fellow commissioners if you I can't see you right now if you should pipe right then I can only see I have I have a question and a comment great thank you Henrikay so Todd did we we do normally get some of those you know periodically not poorly we get those certifications in the actual written report not the one that's presented but are there any portions of what you read that is normally that is included in the non-disclosure agreements that we've entered with the licensees yeah that's a great question the quarterly report as a whole is not covered directly but the individual parts depending upon what's in it are covered in many ways like complimentary funds that are other comps that are awarded are covered specifically under the non-disclosure agreement and certainly there might be other financial metrics that are covered certain daily revenues if those are ever included in a quarterly report or anything like that so the NDA is fairly expansive as far as highly confidential information obviously it doesn't cover the public type information like the monthly gross gaming revenues and things like that but much of the sensitive information I do believe is covered in the respective non-disclosure agreements because I would be in favor I understand their reluctance to do a lot of work to satisfy the report Joe but I think the narrative of the financial position is especially important for us to understand during this period it doesn't have to be very long and we don't have to bring it to an open meeting necessarily that could be something else that we discuss internally but I think it's important for us to collectively individually the commissioners to understand what's going what's going on on that side during this period right something that I think we should consider other commissioners John I'm just curious to know Todd I know that some of this is desperately required so it's one thing to delay it's another to to relieve all together and or keep things confidential so I'd be curious to hear from you either now or later offline the answers to those questions yeah I don't know that we've heard a recommendation yet right about okay we should just include the basics or whatever our recommendation is going to be I know you laid out several options Todd but it would make sense to as Commissioner Brian just said what do we have to do statutorily what what makes sense for us to do here or just is delaying the one answer that we we could do well I think I think what might be helpful just to both of those questions and to Commissioner Zuniga's points might be to put this on the agenda for Thursday and spend some time over the next week briefing individual commissioners and answering questions individually to make sure the commissioners have a good comfort level with what the statutory requirements are versus what has just historically been done versus what you think might be useful so we can have a more robust discussion on Thursday because this is not the exact form for it anyway so I do think I do think that I really appreciate hearing the the legal standards whether they're regulatory statutory but I think it would be for me really helpful to not only understand the statutory ones but also understand more clearly the regulatory ones because we really must also operate in compliance with our regulations notwithstanding the notion that we can vary I have a variance you know it's not the best practice so we should know our regulatory obligations because they stemmed from I assume really good policy discussions that preceded me certainly and and then the third piece which is is there anything that we need in light of where we are today that hasn't been addressed either in the statute or the regs and and that's kind of quarterly report it could be a report we want from the licensees right now period regardless of whether it's quarterly or not so this will give us some time between now and Thursday to think about not only the obligations under a quarterly reporting but also whether we need to hear from our licensees period on something in particular so the only thing I'm concerned about Todd in terms of process is that if you speak to our two by twos without any kind of a memorialized writing we might not all be hearing the same thing so I don't know if you want to memorialize in the writing or if you want to do I'll five of us in a the same room where we can't deliberate back and you know the silent briefing that might work and it might be more efficient for you too but I leave that to you and caring to figure out how to best prepare us for a good conversation next week does that make sense there's a regain I mean Gail yes it does yeah I I think you know I don't think we are it's good to shoot for next meeting if you think we need a lot more preparation and the purpose of today's meeting is just simply to schedule or try to figure out when we're setting that agenda it could easily go you know fall into the following meeting but I think a discussion as to you know what's required and what is our view of even the current situation whether we allow the fur wave or whatever the case may be I think it may be necessary you know at some point Mr Cameron for sure Brian I I think what you suggested whatever mechanism the team thinks is appropriate to brief us all so that we're prepared for that discussion and it sounds like that can happen and we will be prepared by the 7th to to talk about this right and whatever we can't address then we can kick over to another meeting Commissioner Brian Brian now I think that's fine I think we get the basic conversation started and moving for the 7th and to your point if something is prepared you need more time and we just we can defer it till the 21st Bruce I would agree with that approach okay good getting the basics ready okay good I'll set then Karen and Todd on that guidance yeah we'll go forward and set something up for next Thursday okay all right then we'll move on to item number nine community mitigation update we have Joe and Mary yeah I think it's been underway I understand so yeah we've started our meetings with our applicants this week and we'll be running those for the next few weeks so we have this on I think for the agenda just for an update on the 4th of June which I think we're fine with we should have all of our meetings done by then and we will be deep into making our recommendations and so I think we're looking at probably the last meeting in June whenever that meeting is to make the presentations to the Commission for votes on the the grants Marianne what is the last June date do you have that handy by chance yes good morning Marianne she's already been busy let me get out of the last June 27th is the agenda setting June 4th June 21st June 18th would be the commission meeting yeah June 24th would be an agenda setting meeting and then July 2nd would be the next so I would say I think we'll want to be on for that did you say it was the June 18th June 4th is the commission meeting 11th the 18th is the next commission meeting okay so I think we'd be ready for for the 18th to do our final presentations on all of the the grant applications and for commission votes if we you know if we run into any hiccups there we would probably have to push it to that July 2nd but but I think the 18th looks good Mary yes hi good morning good morning how's that sound to you um my only concern is this year we have 37 applications and in previous years we've had about 20 to 22 so we may whether we want to tackle all of them on one day or two two days maybe I think having it on the starting on the 18th gives us the ability to maybe have if we run over go into the next Thursday maybe and take some hours and finish it up so that's a possibility maybe we deserve some time Marianne for the two what do you think Joe yeah I think that that probably makes sense I think last year we even with a reduced number I think we might have gone to two days um and maybe if if we have one on the 18th maybe we can do a a special one the next week right just just focus on that because it's you know as as you all know it's a it's a it's a bit of a painful process it's not expensive it's not painful and it's inspiring it is but it is it is a little painful yeah and some of some of these applications are really complex so there's a lot of issues and it's a high dollar amount this year too that we have potential for distribution my fellow commissioners any questions for Joe and Mary Ann Mary oh I said I'm sorry that's right Mary Ann and I are used to it the correction for Mary for Mary Ann whoever we we answered anything excellent um so I'm not hearing any but I am curious about your sweatshirt because we only see I'm not crazy oh oh I'm sorry this is one of my favorite t-shirts can you see the rest of it my reality is just different from yours for wearing today very very good thank you all right Kathy I I think I think that works maybe the two dates but I suppose I initially thought that we could just get an update um we we do have an update date on June 4th June 4th is the the update and then we just we went ahead to maybe marking up for the the actual presentations and okay for the for the 18th and then maybe I like the idea of Joe doing uh suggesting a a special meeting so that they're not um bifurcated by two weeks but maybe by just the next week so you know do two and that would that would be June 25th the next Thursday okay if we kept it to the Thursdays yeah if if I want a Thursday that's okay too does that make sense on Rike and Bruce because you're both so involved in this yeah and I think it's just you know I was imagining an update to be uh you know a summary not not not in great detail um but um it's it's good to kind of like for everybody to understand that these work continues and as Mary says you know there's there's great demand are you okay with the June 4th date for that or did you want it sooner on Rike we could do an update sooner I mean I can give you an update but virtually any point in time really uh it's I'll leave it up to you when you when you like an update right right now we have it for June 4th but if if there were a reason to keep to bring it up sooner commissioners um yeah I would love to see an update on the you know we could do an update on May 21st and see if we're prepped and ready for you know our June decision meetings if that works does that sound good okay all right that might make some good sense it gives you a little bit of time to be um responsive to anything that gets raised so um Marianne can we we switch the date for right up for nine to five twenty one instead of and then we'll we'll have the tentative dates of June 18th and uh the 25th for the follow-up excellent uh other commissioners any questions all right we'll move on to um item number 10 our budget discussion commission Zuniga and and Derek good morning Derek good morning um so I definitely think that this will be a discussion versus the first um draft of the budget that we passed by you just we're behind in our schedule um by a couple weeks due to everything that's been going on normally we would have the budget uh first draft of it out to the licensees we're still doing some internal meeting right now so that schedule is pushed back a little bit hopefully we'll have some feedback for you from our meeting with the licensees on on June 4th we aim to get that out to them in the next couple of weeks after we complete our first run through it here um so I'd like to keep it on for the fourth keep pushing and if I have better results and better meetings with the licensees maybe it'll turn into a first draft but I'm not hopeful of that at this point um yeah that sounds good you know we can always sounds like we might have a couple of um meetings you know followed by a week so we have to use either the 18 or the or the 25th um you know for a final budget approval we would still make you know prior to June 30th um let's just uh let's just see how those um conversations continue okay no change for number 10 moving on now to item number 11 that's under marked up for under review good morning Jill good morning um I think we can still keep this grant update under review just due to um some of the outside speakers that might not be ready okay that's fine thank you and then and then number 12 that's also you the cultural mitigation program I I checked in with the mass cultural council yesterday and actually it might be an interesting update um they have um they're about to make some decisions on their mitigation grants as you know this funding um comes from casino revenue um they've had to repurpose their culture uh rx their prescription program to provide um COVID-19 relief and so you might be interested in hearing more about that so there that is that would be really interesting um would they be ready uh for a May date um maybe late late May early June they said okay um well we maybe we just switched uh the mitigation update from June 4th to May maybe we take the 6th of June 4th date yeah I can check with them it's Anita Walker still um with them or has she her retirement started um she's still with them until the end of June oh okay excellent yeah good um well it'd be interesting to get that update because I was aware of the other program so sounds as though they've been um you know really responsive to the current needs so that's excellent anybody have any questions for Jill on that okay thank you item number 13 thanks Jill um thank you Dr. Lightman um could we go back to the five seven meeting um I had an item to put on if we could oh okay good um the quarterly local quarterly local aid payments to the cities and towns that's by statute and it's a um you know so it should be a very uh quick item uh Chad Bork will have all the documents to the commissioners ahead of time we don't have that on our notes right now correct right correct okay so this is a new item yes okay Miriam did you get that okay I did I just um because we're not talking about times so when I yeah so when I get the language from everybody if they could just let me know how much time they think they're gonna take and I could figure that out can you just remind us of the um the items I'm um working off from an iPad and I haven't kept nothing as good of notes as usual um so so far for the the seventh we've got the seventh we have the we still have the plane ridge park race course 2020 live racing update yeah and now we have the new quarterly local aid payments and then we have the new the new regs from um the right yeah and um we don't up in the air is the wind independent monitors six months we don't know what if there's going to be an um also the ever at six month public safety report yeah and then still up in the air is the massachusetts thoroughbred breeders association request to raise that finger lakes okay and then we're we're adding a quarterly report discussion and I think that's it and excuse me this is Loretta um good morning um the IEB would have an MGM qualifier uh for suitability determination which is usually a pretty quick item so you step by May 7th Loretta correct okay all right well that's actually really helpful um Miriam because you're um you've convinced me that we won't we certainly won't move up um Commissioner Cameron's um Mr. O'Brien's and Kerry's report number seven to the seventh I think that will be absolutely a comprehensive virtual meeting but it sounds so for Alex um you need that additional item that that's required I don't want you to to feel that you you you can't move other items to the seventh um as appropriate given that uh so right now you had under review number 13 14 15 and 16 do you have recommendations for dates on those items Alex those can all stay under review okay and then on the other two the second one require a vote the first one may require a vote on the live racing uh yes the uh live racing would require a vote the quarterly local aid payments would also and also the finger lakes okay thanks and Miriam I should have been asking about timing I'm sorry no no that's okay okay my apologies okay then um those items can all stay on under review then we're on to item number 17 the game sense impact report um yeah sorry good morning yeah I think we need to just keep that under review right now um work close I expect by the next agenda planning meeting we should be able to assign okay my apologies everybody I've had a slight technical challenge on the agenda it's not loading for me now um Miriam can you help me on the next item please um number 18 is the data storage and access report demo research page the research page on the web on website right both of those will will remain the

It could be a historic weekend for the BSU-Mantaki team. The Beavers needed only one win to capture their first ever WCHA regular season title in a McNaughton Cup. They look to do that tonight in the opening game of a series with Alabama Huntsville. Michael Bitzer and the Beavers came ready to play in this one. Early on, it's Bitzer making the save here off the Cody Maruni shot. He had 17 for the game. Then, second period, Nate Arntz plays the puck out from the boards and then lights the lamp. Beavers go up 1-0. They win it 3-2 in their first ever WCHA title. Congratulations to them.
