We aim to reduce ourdependency on energy intensive sources of water such as those provided by municipalities andpromote the use of water supplied by natural sources such as groundwater. Many of our sitesincorporate closed loop water systems where water is brought in from natural sources, used forpurposes and recycled by passing the water through fi lters and cooling it. Compared to 2009 waterconsumption declined.
