Administration
Memorandum
To:
Oneida Business Committee
From: Public Works Director, Shannon Stone
Date: May 8, 2026
Re:
Solid Waste Citation Schedule
Shekoli,
The purpose of this memorandum is to update the Business Committee on the progress of
preparing the requested Citation Schedule. The Waste Management Team drafted a citation
schedule several month back in preparation for the passing of the amendments for the Solid
Waste law. We were not aware at that time that the schedule needed to be in a particular
format but were provided examples of other schedules. The Waste Management Team rewrote
and submitted the schedule to the Law Office.
Attorney Krystal John reached out and offered to help through the process and wrote the draft
resolution which was then submitted to Attorney Clarissa Leeman for a statement of effect.
Clarissa informed me there were conflicts with the Citation Schedule. She explained what needs
to be addressed in the schedule and the resolution before she can complete the statement of
effect. As such, I would request this topic be deferred to the next meeting of the Business
Committee.
Sincerely,

Summary
Through this resolution the Oneida Business Committee adopts a citation schedule for violations
of the Solid Waste Disposal law.
Submitted by: Clorissa N. Leeman, Senior Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office
Date: May 19, 2026
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office
The Solid Waste Disposal law (“the Law”) was adopted to set forth the process by which the
Nation will reduce, manage, and dispose solid waste within the jurisdictional boundaries of the
Nation. [4 O.C. 405.1-1].
The Law delegates authority to the Department of Public Works (DPW) and the Land,
Environment, Agriculture, and Food Division (LEAF) to:
develop a fine and penalty schedule, subject to approval by the Oneida Committee through
resolution;
issue a citations to a person found in violation of this law, in an amount set forth in the fine
and penalty schedule, pursuant to the Nation’s Citation law; and
making referrals to the Oneida Police Department, the Oneida Conservation Department,
or the Zoning Department, when deemed necessary, for further investigation or
enforcement consistent with this law. [4 O.C. 405.5-1].
The Law also delegates authority to the Oneida Police Department to enforce the provisions of this
law which includes:
investigating complaints and referrals from DPW or LEAF for suspected violations of this
law;
obtaining a search warrant and conducting inspections if necessary to enforce the
provisions of this law; and
issuing citations consistent with the fine and penalty schedule developed by DPW and
LEAF and approved by the Oneida Business Committee. [4 O.C. 405.5-2].
The development of this resolution meets the requirement of section 405.5-1 of the Law. This
resolution sets forth the citation schedule which includes the specific fine amounts for various
violations of this Law.
This resolution also sets forth additional information regarding citations, including:
Whether a mandatory appearance at the citation pre-hearing is required for each violation
of the Law in accordance with the Citations law [8 O.C. 807.6-1(a)];
Page 1 of 2
Public Packet
51 of 184
This resolution also requires a mandatory appearance at the citation pre-hearing for
an offender who has not attained the age of eighteen (18) years, along with their
parent(s), guardian(s), or legal custodian(s), no matter what violation occurred.
This resolution also delegates discretion to the Oneida Police Department officer
issuing the citation to require a mandatory appearance of the offender at the Trial
Court’s citation pre-hearing for any violation of this Law if deemed appropriate.
Criminal charges and referrals may be appropriate in certain cases and are not prohibited
by this Law;
In addition to the fine amount as provided in the citation schedule, any citation issued for
a violation of this Law shall also include court costs as assessed by the Oneida Nation
Judiciary;
On-going violations shall accrue daily penalties and that the Department of Public Works
may take action to cure violation(s) of this law at the expense of the party responsible;
In addition to the fines listed above the Trial Court may require community service,
restitution, or any other penalty as deemed appropriate by the Trial Court as provided for
by the Solid Waste Disposal law
Upon adoption by the Oneida Business Committee this resolution will become effective on May
27, 2026.

Creating that
Welcoming Environment
Kirby Metoxen Recognized with
Wisconsin Governor's Legacy Award
By Kristal Hill

Bartlett Show, and Anne Sayers, Secretary of Wisconsin Department of Tourism on stage honoring Kirby as he holds the Wisconsin Governor's
Legacy Award. Also on hand to help celebrate the moment were Kirby's family and Oneida Nation Chairman Tehassi Hill.
Councilman Kirby W. Metoxen was recognized March 17,
2026, in Milwaukee, WI with the 2026 Wisconsin Governor’s Legacy Award. This honor celebrates individuals who
have made long lasting contributions to tourism through
decades of service, leadership, and unwavering commitment to their communities.
Tourism is often described as an industry. However, more
accurately, it’s a relationship. It is the quiet, steady foundation of economic growth, woven through community pride,
cultural identity, and the simple act of making a place feel
welcoming. Behind every strong tourism system are the
people who lift it, nurture it, and share their communities
with the world yet, it is sometimes overlooked. Individuals
like Councilman Metoxen considers tourism to be one of
the silent drivers of economic development.
“Before businesses thrive, before families choose to stay,
before a community grows, people must feel something
good about the place they visit. Tourism makes that possible. It creates first impressions, it builds connections, and
it draws people in long before they consider investing,
living, working, or returning,” says Councilman Metoxen.
Just as Councilman Metoxen has observed and advocated for tourism, people across Wisconsin and the Nation
have witnessed his expertise such as Oneida Nation Chairman Tehassi Hill who says, “He seems to know someone
everywhere he goes and will always have a story ready
to share.”
These connections represent years of carrying Oneida’s story, values, and warmth into communities across
the state and the country. When Kirby arrives somewhere
new, he brings us with him our teachings, humor, generosity, and our standing stone spirit. And everywhere he has
been, he has left behind a positive impression of Oneida
that opens doors for those who come after him.
In addition to Councilman Metoxen’s Legacy award,
Oneida Nation’s Leah Stroobants, Cultural Engagement
Specialist, was also nominated for the Rising Star Award.
Although she was not selected, her passion, commitment,
and creativity deserve acknowledgment and stands as a
reminder that tourism is carried forward by many hands,
across generations.
“Tourism does more than create moments; it creates
opportunities, it supports local businesses, and it strengthens community identity. It brings revenue that helps fund
healthcare, housing, education, elder services, and cultural preservation. It invites visitors to understand who we
are and why our community matters,” says Councilman
Metoxen.
In retrospect, at the center of all this work are the people who welcome others with sincerity and pride. Individuals like Kirby Metoxen and Leah Stroobant’s dedication
strengthens the fabric of our communities, one connection
at a time. Their efforts not only help shape visitor experiences, but they also shape the reputation and economic
future of entire communities. The relationships built with
local and visitors from afar is what turns a destination into
a place people want to invest in, return to, and remember.

Palm Springs DCCC Tribal Issues Conference Memo and Recommended Talking Points
Overall Goals
x
x
x
Convey to Democratic Members the importance of cracking down on gambling through
Prediction Markets
Continue to ask that Democrats make fixing prediction markets part of the party platform for
when they take back control of Congress
Monitor and be a part of other Democratic legislative policy objectives should Democrats
retake control of one or both chambers of Congress
Suggested Talking Points
CFTC
- We are concerned about Online Gaming Through Prediction Markets.
-
Our Tribe cannot even offer sports betting at our casino because California's constitution
prohibits it and California voters have repeatedly defeated efforts to legalize it.
-
Now we have companies offering sports betting on your phone all over the state. From
schools to churches and even on our casino floor.
-
These companies are violating the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, are irresponsibly
marketing to young men, and are creating an epidemic of gambling addiction amongst their
users.
-
They are not investing in social services or infrastructure, or hiring local workers like we do.
The profits all go straight to the corporation.
-
The Trump family is personally involved in several of these companies.
-
We need Democrats to lead the charge on this issue and it needs to be part of the party's
anti-corruption platform.
-
If this isn't fixed, we're looking at an existential threat to our government revenues. Our
police, fire and environmental programs will suffer if Congress can't reign these companies
in.

NAHASDA Reauthorization
- NAHASDA has gone without reauthorization since 2013, preventing passage and
implementation of several key improvements that will make it easier and cheaper for tribes
to utilize the program and house tribal members
- Some of these improvements include:
- Consolidated environmental reviews, so tribal nations can build housing faster,
- Reduced reporting burdens by requiring a single HUD performance report to cut
duplicative paperwork and free staff capacity,
- Expanded Trust land leases to 99 years to improve mortgage access and leverage
private capital, and
- Permanently authorizes Tribal HUD-VASH to provide secure and stable housing
resources for American Indian and Alaska Native veterans.
- Ranking Member Maxine Waters has held this important reauthorization hostage for years
to pressure a very small number of tribes to address a parochial tribal membership issue.
- It is time to let this advance to allow this critical program to operate at its maximum
effectiveness and support tribal sovereignty and self determination.
Tribal Tax Sovereignty & Parity
- We need to pass the Tribal Tax Investment and Reform Act of 2026 introduced by Reps.
Gwen Moore and David Schweikert.
- This legislation would open up tax exempt bonding and tax credit opportunities that cities,
counties, and states have access to, but tribal governments are limited in accessing.
- This bill has been introduced for more than a decade now and it is time to get it across the
finish line when Democrats take back Congress.

2026 Reservation Economic Summit (RES)

Projected Cost:

Narrative/Background:
Attendance at the National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development
(NCAIED) Reservation Economic Summit (RES) provided timely insight into the
continued evolution of tribal self-governance under the Indian Self-Determination and
Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA) and reinforced the critical role housing plays as
core economic infrastructure in Nation rebuilding and workforce sustainability.
One of the more memorable breakout sessions I attended focused on the history and
evolution of the ISDEAA, which was enacted in 1975, and authorized tribes to assume
administrative control over federal Programs, Services, Functions, and Activities
(PSFAs). Although, highly successful in its early implementation, tribes later identified
limitations that constrained flexibility and local decision-making. These concerns
resulted in amendments beginning in 1978, culminating in the establishment of
Self-Governance, with additional statutory amendments in 1987. The Department of
the Interior (DOI) served as the initial platform for Self-Governance pilot compacts
and remains the strongest federal partner in this area.
Today, DOI works with over 300 tribes, distributing approximately $1 billion annually
through Self-Governance agreements. Current DOI leadership has reaffirmed a policy
position that tribes should be allowed to assume as many programs as legally
permitted, marking an intentional shift away from historical federal resistance. Tribes

may redesign programs, reallocate funding, and tailor service delivery to meet local
priorities.
Significant efforts are underway to expand ISDEAA-like authorities beyond DOI.
Congress authorized Self-Governance-style agreements with USDOT in 2015, though
participation remains limited due to restrictions such as the absence of Contract
Support Costs and lease authority. USDA has made incremental progress through pilot
food purchasing and forest management initiatives but continues to struggle with
consistent ISDEAA implementation. Proposed HHS expansion would allow tribes to
consolidate multiple program funding streams under single agreements, increasing
flexibility and administrative efficiency; however, bipartisan support and federal
agency education remain key challenges.
A featured session, Incorporating Housing in Tribal Economic Development, indicated
that housing should be treated as essential economic infrastructure, not a secondary
consideration. When aligned with governance and policy objectives, housing directly
supports workforce attraction, economic mobility, and long-term community stability.
I was requested to serve as a panelist during this session to discuss how tribal leaders
can incorporate housing initiatives into economic development planning. During
strategic planning at the beginning of the Fall 2023 term, the Oneida Business
Committee identified housing as a priority and created the Affordable Homeownership
Loan program in response to escalating interest rates for mortgage loans. The policy
set mortgage rates at 2% for enrolled Oneida Nation citizens and 1.5% for veterans,
supported by an $8 million allocation evenly split between home purchase and new
construction options. Implementation was delegated to the Comprehensive Housing
Division and Bay Bank, demonstrating clear separation between policy direction and
program administration. The program is semi-sustainable and available to Oneida
Nation citizens nationwide.
Overall, attending RES provided an array of information focused on tribal economy
and ideas on how tribes can move forward to achieve their goals. It is clear that
ISDEAA and Self-Governance remain central tools for advancing tribal sovereignty and
nation rebuilding. Federal expansion efforts present strategic opportunities but
require sustained advocacy. Housing, when positioned as a policy priority, functions
as a catalyst for workforce stability and economic growth.
I was honored to receive the 40 Under 40 Award alongside Councilman Jonas Hill and
Dr. Lois Stevens along with many esteemed professionals throughout Indian Country.
NCAIED hosted a ceremony and reception for all the honorees.

Narrative/Background:
The 2026 Tribal Self-Governance Conference provided sessions, breakouts, and
consultations focused on advancing tribal self-governance, strengthening the federal–
tribal relationship, and addressing policy and operational issues impacting the Oneida
Nation.
Some of the notable sessions of the conference were:
Speaking With Impact: Advancing Tribal Priorities in Washington featuring Kayla
Gebeck, from Giizhik Law and Mary Pavel from Sonosky, Chambers, Sachse,
Endreson & Perry, LLP. This session focused on learning practical strategies for
structuring legislative “asks” at different stages of the congressional process.
Approaches to engaging Congress and the Administration, shaping clear messages,
and navigating political change while advancing Tribal priorities and Self
Governance goals. The importance of relationship-building with congressional
staff, even when disagreements exist and understanding jurisdiction.
Federal Indian Law 101: Understanding the Tribal–Federal Relationship featured
panelists Larry Roberts, Attorney General, Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut, Derrick
Beetso, Professor of Practice & Executive Director, Indian Gaming and SelfGovernance, Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, Arizona State University.

Business Committee Travel Report
This session provided foundational context for the following:
x
x
x
x
x
x
The government-to-government relationship between Tribal Nations and the
United States.
The constitutional basis of the tribal–federal relationship.
The development of federal jurisdiction through treaties and statutes such as
the Major Crimes Act.
The plenary power doctrine and its role in federal Indian policy.
The trust responsibility and the political—not racial—status of tribes, reinforced
through Morton v. Mancari and
The strategic importance of engaging federal agencies as treaty and trust
responsibility holders.
Department of the Interior (DOI) Consultation provided an opportunity for direct
engagement with DOI representatives regarding ongoing tribal concerns. The
topics discussed were:
x probate backlog
x Self-Governance Compact and
x Program requests
x Funding Disparities
x Law Enforcement Funding and
x Trust Land issues
DOI acknowledged long-standing probate delays and described actions taken,
including increased staffing (142 additional employees), productivity standards,
and new technology tools. Also, Cooperative Government Agreements with states
are being pursued to improve access to official records, such as birth certificates.
Concerns were raised regarding BIA responsiveness and internal coordination.
Funding approvals were inconsistent, with some Oneida Nation requests denied
while similar requests from other tribes were approved. Appeals were submitted,
and DOI acknowledged the need to review why responses and approvals were
delayed. Oneida Nation reported severe underfunding for tribal law enforcement,
with current funding supporting only one officer. DOI noted that law enforcement
funding decisions ultimately rest with Congress and that PL-280 status complicates
jurisdiction and funding. Serious concerns were expressed about land being taken
out of trust without an appeal process, emphasizing the risks to tribal sovereignty.
I contributed to the Tribal Council perspective on oversight, policy impacts, and
reinvestment of contracting revenues into tribal communities by serving on a panel
titled Self-Determination in Action: Federal Contracting as a Tool for Native SelfDetermination along with John Morseau, Tribal Council, Pokagon Band of
Potawatomi and Ashawna Miles, Director of Self Governance, Cherokee Nation.
The panel was hosted by the Native American Contractors Association (NACA) and
Page 2 of 3

Business Committee Travel Report
explored how federally contracted, tribally owned enterprises function as tools for
economic self-determination and the broader exercise of tribal sovereignty.
Participation in this panel advanced the Oneida Nation’s strategic interests by
reinforcing the importance of federal contracting as a cornerstone of
self-governance, economic stability, and community reinvestment. The
engagement supported continued advocacy for tribal participation in the Small
Business Administration 8(a) Program and related federal contracting
opportunities.
This travel directly supported the goals of the 2026 Tribal Self-Governance
Conference and advanced the Oneida Nation’s engagement in federal
self-governance and consultation processes.

Timeline: Income Based Rental Program Rule Change
• August 28, 2024 - OBC Meeting: a motion carried that the CEO facilitate a work team
meant to further research and conclude how to exclude GWA toward rents with the
Income Based Rental Program.
• September 10, 2024 -First CEO GWA Work Team meeting.
• January 13, 2025 - After extensive research of federal regulations and consult with Office
of Native American Programs (ONAP), it was concluded the best way to handle GWA was
to include it when determining Minimum Income Requirements and exclude it when
calculating rent.
• December 23, 2025 - In working with the Oneida Law Office, CHD received the first draft
of rule revisions.
3
• February/March 2026 – CHD provided feedback and input to the DRAFT after several
meetings with staff.
Public Packet
142 of 184
Moving Forward
Income Based Rental Program will move forward
with two rule changes.
1. Language to count GWA as income for
meeting Minimum Income Requirement and
exclude GWA when calculating rents.
2. Language that will make all residential
common corridor buildings smoke free.
• There are other changes needed to the rule,
yet language is not finalized.
Public Meeting - CHD has set a Public Meeting
date for July 14, 2026. As required by Rulemaking,
the flyer will submited to the Kalihwisaks for June
30, 2026, publication.

Public Packet
143 of 184
Applying Rent Credits
• Not all accounts will receive a rent credit. Accounts subject to Ceiling
Rent (Maximum) and Flat Rate Rent models of the Income Based Rental
Program may not be impacted by the removal of GWA from the entire
household hold income used to calculate rents.
• The retroactive date for rent credits will be January 1, 2025.
• Rent credits are a credit on the account, NOT a cash pay out.
• Each individual tenant account (around 340) will be gone through to
determine the rent value impact of GWA and evaluate which set of
calculation variables are applicable to that account.

Public Packet
144 of 184
GWARelated Rent Credit Calculation Variables
• Household composition changes — assessing how many households
had changes that would include or exclude GWA payments
• GWA Tier transitions — reviewing how many households moved
between:
• Tier 1- Ages18+ ($1,500)
• Tier 2 – Ages 62+ ($3,400)
• Tier 3 – Ages 70+ ($4,200.54)
• Move-outs and evictions —households no longer in the program will
NOT receive rent credit.
• Ceiling Rent (Maximum) and Flat Rate Rent – verifying accounts where
the exclusion of GWA does not result in a change in rent rate.
6
Public Packet
145 of 184
Summary/Recap
• Two changes to the Income-Based Rental Program Rule are
being advanced:
o GWA income clarification — GWA will count toward meeting the
Minimum Income Requirement but will be excluded when calculating
rent
o Smoke-free residential corridors — All residential common-corridor
buildings will become smoke-free
• CHD has scheduled a Public Meeting for July 14, 2026.
• Rent credits applied to accounts after consideration of GWA
related rent credit variables.

Ft Sill Army Opportunity OESC

IGSA Cover Letter Text_DRAFT_Rev0.docx
Chairman Hill,
The following is a follow-up to our discussion last week regarding the Fort Sill opportunity.
Overview
I wanted to follow up on our recent discussion with the U.S. Army at Fort Sill regarding a
potential Intergovernmental Service Agreement (IGSA) between the Army and the
Oneida Nation.
My team and I met with leadership at Fort Sill in Oklahoma, and the discussion was very
productive.
The Army expressed strong interest in partnering specifically with the Oneida Nation
through an IGSA structure.
What the Army Is Looking For
The Army is actively seeking to partner with a Tribal Nation that has the capability to
perform engineering and construction services.
As part of this process, I recently briefed the Army on OESC’s capabilities, and
they indicated we are the strongest fit among the entities they evaluated.
After reviewing several tribes, the Army has identified the Oneida Nation as its preferred
partner.
They have also made it clear that, if this moves forward, they would expect OESC to
perform the work on behalf of the Nation.
What an IGSA Means
The agreement would be executed between the U.S. Army and the Oneida Nation, not
directly with OESC.
The Nation would hold the agreement, with OESC performing the work.
The Oneida Nation would invoice the Army, and the work would then flow through to
OESC entities for execution.
Key considerations:
This structure allows the Nation to operate under its own procurement rules rather than
federal procurement regulations (FAR).
The IGSA is not tied to the small business or 8(a) programs.
Scope & Scale of the Opportunity
The initial scope includes:
Construction services
Engineering services
Professional and technical support
The Army is viewing this as a long-term partnership:
Public Packet
149 of 184
Year 1: Focus on Fort Sill
Year 2: Expansion to Army installations in the Central U.S.
Year 3 and beyond: Potential nationwide rollout
For context:
A similar model currently in use generates tens of millions of dollars annually
This would represent the first IGSA of this type between the U.S. Army and a Tribal
Nation
Why This Matters for the Oneida Nation
Establishes a direct government-to-government relationship with the U.S. Army
Positions the Oneida Nation as a national leader among Tribal Nations
Creates opportunities for:
National visibility
Potential recognition at a national level (the Army has indicated interest in
publicizing this effort)
Inclusion of Oneida veterans in any formal announcement or related ceremony
Current Status
The IGSA language is currently being drafted by Fort Sill DPW and Army Headquarters
(IMCOM)
We are supporting the Army with pricing and supporting documentation
The Army will review our submission and determine whether to proceed with the
agreement
Requested Action
At this stage, I am requesting your support to:
Sign a letter of interest on Oneida Nation letterhead (see attached) this will need
to be cut and paste onto Oneida Letterhead) Please email back to me.
Important:
This letter does not commit the Tribe to the agreement
It simply allows the Army to continue evaluating the Oneida Nation as its partner
If the Army elects to move forward:
They will provide a draft IGSA
We will bring that forward for full review and discussion prior to any commitment
Risk and Control
We will not proceed with any agreement unless:
The terms are fully understood
The Tribe is comfortable with the structure and obligations
This remains an early-stage opportunity, and no commitments have been made or
finalized
In Closing
This is a unique opportunity, as the Army has not previously executed an IGSA with a
Tribal Nation for engineering and construction services
Public Packet
150 of 184
While still in the early stages, it has the potential to be both economically meaningful
and strategically important for the Oneida Nation
I wanted to bring this forward early, obtain your input, and ensure we proceed in a way
that aligns with the Tribe’s priorities

Landscape.

b. Alternative Overview of the Corporations Current
Market Position.
OESC operates in a competitive and evolving Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC)
marketplace. Competition is driven by past performance, reputation, pricing, geographic reach,
access to skilled personnel, and strong agency relationships.
Public Packet
169 of 184
OESC’s diversified subsidiary structure allows it to compete across full-and-open and
socioeconomic procurement environments. Three of the five highest-spending federal agencies
awarding non-competitive contracts are existing OESC clients, reflecting strong technical
capability and performance history.
c. Strategy for Enhancing Market Value and Competitive
Position
OESC builds on long-standing client relationships and contract vehicles established across the
enterprise. Growth focuses on core service areas while remaining selective in entering new
markets, clients, and contract types. Overlapping North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS ) codes allow flexibility and collaboration while maintaining accountability within each
subsidiary.
d. Comparison of OESC’s Performance and Position
Relative to Keu Competitors
OESC competes with small businesses, Alaska Native Corporations, tribally owned businesses,
Native Hawaiian Organizations, and other socioeconomic firms. Competition also includes
full-and-open procurements. Typical competitors include environmental firms under NAICS
562910 and transportation engineering firms in Wisconsin for WI Department of Transportation.
e. Summary of Recent Developments in the Market and
Business Development
The federal market faces heightened oversight and uncertainty. SBA enforcement activity has
increased across the 8(a) program, with over 1,000 firms suspended in January 2026. The 8(a)
program remains under review, slowing some awards. Department of Defense (DoD) sole-source
awards over $20 million are now subject to increased scrutiny.
On May 7th, 2026, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) issued a “Letter of Intent to
Terminate “Oneida Environmental LLC”, following notification to the Government on or about
January 6, 2026 of OE’s intent to discontinue performance on the Immigration and Customs
Enforcement (ICE) contracts.
Public Packet
170 of 184
This action was triggered by Oneida Environmental (OE) withdrawal from select ICE contracts, as
directed by the Oneida Business Committee through Resolution #01-02-26-B (dated December
30, 2025).
As a result, Oneida Environmental has been suspended from the 8(a) program and is no longer
eligible to receive new 8(a) awards. OESC anticipates an approximate 15% revenue reduction over
the next 6–12 months and is actively working to mitigate the impact.
f. Primary goals, targets, and progress
OESC’s primary goal remains sustainable growth aligned with client mission needs. Target clients
include DoD agencies, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Bureau of Indian Affairs, WI DOT,
Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewer District, and the Oneida Nation. Growth efforts include expanded
services at existing clients, new geographic markets, municipalities, and other Tribal Nations.
