6.  ABANDONMENT OF LAND DEVELOPMENT COSTS:

In Fiscal 2009, two capital projects previously under development were abandoned as the Companies determined that these investments in the projects were not expected to be recoverable due to environmental regulation changes. The major expenditures abandoned included permits, surveys, architectural and legal fees and capitalized costs including labor, interest and property taxes.
