However, a six-year lease option will provide the ability to support operations with new equipment that meets maintenance and certification requirements as defined by the manufacturer and can be done with minimal budgetary impact. This will provide for stability related to future replacement and budgeting of asset equipment replacement and ensure liability remains with the manufacturer.
