c. Report of the Chief Financial Officer<br />

Ms. Elizabeth McCarthy provided highlights of the financial reports to the Trustees. She said that for<br />

the reporting period the <strong>Authority</strong>’s net income was $6.4 million, which was below the amount budgeted. She<br />

indicated that this was due to low water flows and the need to purchase power to support the <strong>Authority</strong>’s<br />

customer load, due to the transmission outage. She concluded that at the end of the reporting period the<br />

<strong>Authority</strong> had $1.1 billion in cash and liquidity, which is invested in a variety of instruments.<br />

In response to a question from Trustee Nicandri, Ms. McCarthy said that the transmission outage is the<br />

same as mentioned in Mr. Quiniones’ report. She said that the transmission line was not owned by the <strong>Authority</strong>,<br />

however, the outage impacted the <strong>Authority</strong>’s ability to transport power, therefore, the <strong>Authority</strong> had to buy<br />

power for its customers.<br />
