1 00:00:05,906 --> 00:00:08,791 So one year we received some funding from the Asset Forfeiture Fund, 2 00:00:08,791 --> 00:00:11,113 which is basically the bad guys funding our equipment. 3 00:00:11,113 --> 00:00:15,695 And we were able to buy personal protective equipment items related to confined space entry. 4 00:00:15,695 --> 00:00:19,282 The following year we were allowed to buy some robots. 5 00:00:19,282 --> 00:00:21,748 So we bought, we actually had enough to buy one, one year 6 00:00:21,748 --> 00:00:26,189 and this year the Asset Forfeiture Fund also provided some funding for us to buy some additional robots. 7 00:00:26,189 --> 00:00:29,678 We do all safety checks and precautions before make entry into the tunnel, 8 00:00:29,678 --> 00:00:33,392 but once we make it in, it's still an unknown, and that's where the robots come into play. 9 00:00:33,392 --> 00:00:38,298 We do have one robot now and we have three on order with one going to San Diego Sector. 10 00:00:38,298 --> 00:00:41,328 Once those arrive, that robot is more designed for the illicit tunnel, 11 00:00:41,328 --> 00:00:43,544 our current robot is more designed for pipes. 12 00:00:43,544 --> 00:00:46,269 So once we can send a robot in first and clear the tunnel -- 13 00:00:46,269 --> 00:00:50,891 that takes a lot of the safety and the unknown into consideration and can clear the tunnel for us. 14 00:00:50,891 --> 00:00:55,072 Any way you look at it, we still have to verify and validate that the tunnel penetrates the border 15 00:00:55,072 --> 00:00:57,527 to classify it as a "cross-border tunnel" 16 00:00:57,527 --> 00:01:01,687 so a person will need to enter the tunnel the way current standards are. 17 00:01:01,687 --> 00:01:02,150 18 00:01:02,150 --> 00:01:02,336 19 00:01:02,336 --> 00:01:02,337
