Note 11 — Noncontrolling Interests

We own a 50% interest in the Carlsbad joint venture and we owned a 50% interest in the Wilmington joint venture, each of which operates in the Power segment. Both joint ventures have been determined to be a VIE and we were determined to be the primary beneficiary as a result of our significant influence over the joint venture operations.

Each joint venture is a partnership, and consequently, only the tax effect of our share of the income was recognized by us. The net assets of the joint ventures are restricted for use by the specific project and are not available for our general operations.
