<br />Tlae cash provided by operating activities leas remained strong and was sufficient to cover the amount of capital and debt needs in
<br />2009. The summary above highlights the szgnzficant amount of cash needed each year for the capital activities of the Utilities, The
<br />operations have been able to finance the capital activities for most of the last five years, we recommend that the Utilities continue
<br />to closely monitor future cash flow with the use of projections and the capital impravement plan, This will ensure that any
<br />pe~•rnanent decline in cash flow is addressed quickly,
