At measurement date of June 25, 2018. At September 30, 2018, these U.S. wind equity method investments had a carrying value of $136 million reflecting subsequent business activity.
(2) 
Generally, significant increases (decreases) in this input in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
(3) 
An increase in the discount rate would result in a decrease in fair value.
(4) 
At measurement date of June 25, 2018. At September 30, 2018, Mississippi Hub and Bay Gas were classified as held for sale and had a net carrying value of $141 million, reflecting subsequent business activity and estimated costs to sell, as we discuss in Note 5. Our other U.S. midstream assets that were measured at fair value, including LA Storage, continue to be classified as property, plant and equipment and had a net carrying value of $32 million at September 30, 2018.
