Mr. Chairman, we have two complementary funding programs to the capital funding programs: again, a settlement operating assistance policy and our municipal operating assistance program. For the non-tax-based communities, the funding, again, in those instances is related to population and related to the facilities that they have in the communities. So it's dependent on population and the types of facilities they have in the communities, primarily. The larger municipalities -- the villages, towns and cities -- receive funding by way of a grant in lieu of property taxes and equalization payments funding which is structured differently on a formula basis.
