In our distribution segment, we have weather-normalization adjustment mechanisms that serve to minimize the effects of weather on our revenue. Additionally, APT has a regulatory mechanism that requires that we share with its tariffed customers 75% of the difference between the total non-tariffed revenues earned during a test period and a revenue benchmark.
