MS. PERINO: Sure. He gets regular updates. He had one yesterday afternoon and then again this morning from senior staff. If there is an update this afternoon, I'll let you know. I think that he'll be speaking with Secretary Chertoff, but as I said Secretary Chertoff is going to be traveling so I don't know the exact time. So, yes, he's involved, engaged, and getting briefings and working to make sure that the federal assistance is there, but that obviously state and local authorities have responsibilities. And by all accounts and purposes, they are following through on those.
