(a) The depreciation line estimates the decline in the value of capital assets over time. To account for the cost of replacement and maintenance of these capital assets, depreciation is subtracted from the Operating Revenues, but added to the net income where it is available to help fund the capital budget.

(b) Includes federal sewer system grants, Southeastern Louisiana Flood Control Program (SELA), and other outside funding sources.

(c) Major changes subsequent to adoption of Budget (budget adopted December 1999) .
