I thought about this and then saw Leo's post. Removing the word contiguous
should be good enough.

I can't think of any other requirements with respect to CI and leaving this
fairly open will leave the staff a healthy amount of discretion.

Anything else need to be done with this? Any disagreement with respect to
this being pushed forward as an emergency proposal?
