0:36
many years ago to kind of go after some
0:37
of these things with the critical
0:39
infrastructure and water is one of those
0:41
things that they've uh really kind of
0:43
looked at and as you know in Detroit
0:46
there's a lot of issues in 2014 with
0:48
billing and all sorts of issues and so
0:50
this is really where a lot of these
0:52
systems have uh uh Bridge their
0:56
information technology networks with
0:57
their operational technology think like
1:00
billing with how you how you control it
1:02
