So we can kind of see how that’s stacking up. But beyond that, it’s just this layering effect of additional transmission projects where they go in, how they can be supported, the timing for permitting and sighting, et cetera. So it’s too early to really give you anything other than directionally we think that there’s going to be a fair bit more transmission. Well, I’ll say not just in MISO. Directionally in the United States and I will say in North America, we will see a much more robust investment thesis on transmission. We see the Inflation Reduction Act and how that is driving the ends of this conversation, the generation transits and the renewable energy, clean energy of any kind. And then of course, on the demand side looking at electrification, manufacturing, et cetera.
We have to make sure that we’re focused on the middle part, which is transmission and distribution that’s between those two. And that’s the investment that we think is really going to be taken off here going forward. We just can’t put numbers on it, but we do know directionally it should be up.
Mark Jarvi: Okay. And then, maybe coming out from a bit of a different direction. Are there any elements of ITC’s footprint, age of the assets, capacity availability right now that were constrained. I guess, the upside case relative to other transmission operators in the region or whether it’s more challenging permitting or citing in terms of where you operate right now?
David Hutchens: No, there’s, I don’t see any reason that ITC would be challenged any more than anyone else’s to build transmission. In fact, I might say at that team on the back say that they’re probably the best transmission plan and development team out there. So if there’s ways to do it, and they’ve got a great footprint, too, right? I mean they’re in MISO and MISO is basically wind alley, and even solar alley to some extent. So the ability — the number of projects, particularly as you look at the planning process that’s going on in MISO and our expertise in my view, should put us ahead of the curve.
Mark Jarvi: Okay. That’s good to hear. And then just turning to Central Hudson in terms of the customer information system. Are you guys able to, at all give any color in terms of potential range of outcomes? And if it’s just sort of one-time penalties you might be faced or if there’s other sort of more, I guess, recurring pressure in terms of earnings profile at Central Hudson may come out of these proceedings?
David Hutchens: No, it’s hard to say what’s going to come out of the proceeding. We’re obviously — we answered the Show Cause order there, and now we’ll have conversations with our regulators and try to figure out where this is going. Most of the O&M impacts that we have seen in ’21 and ’22 were to get the system to where it needs to be, and we continue to make the additional changes in investments and tweaks to that system as we go to make sure that it’s — we got to get to the point where it’s ultimately operating as design, which we think we’re getting close on. But we won’t see the ongoing O&M drag that we saw the last couple of years. But as far as penalties, that’s hard to figure out now. I think we have got a good response to that Show Cause order and we just need to explain the situation and get ahead of it.
Mark Jarvi: Got it. Thanks for the time.
Operator: Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Ben Pham from BMO. Please go ahead.
Ben Pham: Hi. Thanks. Can you hear me, okay?
