If its similar to 2007 and low precipitation and at least some snowfall and dryer than normal but the results will keep us at 10 reduction and something that we can sustain in the future. If its the lowest bar with precipitation and see those conditions in april and may we will talk to our customers because we will plan for a 20 reduction in the coming months, whenever that might be, and one thing we need to talk to them is we all conserved a lot. The demand is down 20 and now were asking for 10 more, start to ask people to do a lot of things so we dont want to take that step unless we thoroughly understand the consequences of that but in the meantime if were in a different situation i think the rest of the state is going to look grim as well so there will be discussion about what needs to be done state wide and i think we have to think about alternative water supply options.
