Good day, ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the Waste Management Third Quarter 2017 Earnings Release Conference Call. At this time participants are in a listen-only mode. Later we'll have a question-and-answer session and instructions will be given at that time.
As a reminder, this conference call is being recorded. I would now like to turn the call over to your host for today, Ed Egl, Director of Investor Relations.
