addition, Artesian Water Maryland has entered into the following agreements to

the associated parcels of real property, easement rights and water transmission

been moved to the state&#8217;s highest Court of Appeals and is scheduled for hearing

October 2007, Artesian Development purchased the approximately eighteen acres of
land noted above, located on Route 9, west of the City of Lewes in Sussex
County, Delaware.&#160;&#160;Artesian Development received a conditional use for
this land from Sussex County to construct an office facility, as we continue to
expand our operations in southern Delaware.&#160;&#160;This conditional use also
permits the construction of water treatment and wastewater facilities and
elevated storage on the site to provide service to the area between Lewes and
Georgetown, Delaware.&#160;&#160;Once permits and approvals to construct the
facilities are received, appropriate agreements with the utility affiliates of
Artesian Development for its use will be developed.&#160;&#160;In January 2008
we received the approved Soils Investigation Report and in July 2008 we received
the approved Preliminary Groundwater Impact Assessment and Groundwater Mounding
Analysis from the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental
Control, or DNREC.&#160;&#160;We submitted designs to DNREC, along with
supplying additional information to increase the number of units approved to be
served at the site from 400 units to approximately 1,900 units.&#160;&#160;The
permitting process is complete.&#160;&#160;Additional groundwater studies are
currently underway that are designed to improve the phasing and implementation
of the systems operation in accordance with DNREC requirements.&#160;&#160;We
have current requests for service from four local developments.</font></div>

Engineers provides engineering services to developers for residential and
commercial development.&#160;&#160;On June 6, 2008, Artesian Engineers acquired
all the assets of Meridian Architects and Engineers, or Meridian, a leading
provider of engineering services in Delaware.&#160;&#160;The acquisition
included the assignment of certain current contract agreements to provide
engineering services to developers and included services to be provided to
Artesian Water.&#160;&#160;This acquisition provided Artesian Resources with
enhanced design and engineering capabilities that we believe have decreased our
reliance on outside engineering firms for similar services.&#160;&#160;In
addition, we believe that Meridian&#8217;s ability to offer engineering services to
design on-site water and wastewater systems for developers, as well as offsite
wastewater collection systems in Sussex County, provides additional revenues
that are not weather sensitive.</font></div>

Topic 980 stipulates generally accepted accounting principles for companies
whose rates are established by or are subject to approval by a third-party
regulatory agency.&#160;&#160;Certain expenses are recoverable through rates
charged to our customers, without a return on investment, and are deferred and
amortized during future periods using various methods as permitted by the DEPSC,
the MDPSC, and the PAPUC.&#160;&#160;Depreciation and salary study expenses are
amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of five years, while all other
expenses related to rate proceedings and applications to increase rates are
amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of two years.&#160;&#160;The
postretirement benefit obligation, which is being amortized over twenty years,
is adjusted for the difference between the net periodic postretirement benefit
costs and the cash payments.&#160;&#160;The deferred income taxes will be
amortized over future years as the tax effects of temporary differences
previously flowed through to the customers reverse.&#160;&#160;Goodwill is
entirely associated with the acquisition of Mountain Hill in August 2008 and is
currently being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of fifty
years.&#160;&#160;The purchase price of Mountain Hill included reimbursement of
all carrying costs through the date of acquisition, which resulted in the
recognition of goodwill.&#160;&#160;Deferred acquisition costs are the result of
due diligence costs related to the proposed purchase agreements for water and
wastewater facilities in Cecil County, Maryland.&#160;&#160;Amortization of
these deferred acquisition costs will not begin until the acquired assets are

regulated utilities periodically seek rate increases to cover the cost of
increased operating expenses, increased financing expenses due to additional
investments in utility plant and other costs of doing business.&#160;&#160;In
Delaware, utilities are permitted by law to place rates into effect, under bond,
on a temporary basis pending completion of a rate increase
proceeding.&#160;&#160;The first temporary increase may be up to the lesser of
$2.5 million on an annual basis or 15% of gross water sales.&#160;&#160;Should
the rate case not be completed within seven months, by law, the utility may put
the entire requested rate relief, up to 15% of gross water sales, in effect
under bond until a final resolution is ordered and placed into
effect.&#160;&#160;If any such rates are found to be in excess of rates the
DEPSC finds to be appropriate, the utility must refund the portion found to be
in excess to customers with interest.&#160;&#160;The timing of our rate increase
requests are therefore dependent upon the estimated cost of the administrative
process in relation to the investments and expenses that we hope to recover
through the rate increase.&#160;&#160;We can provide no assurances that rate
increase requests will be approved by applicable regulatory agencies; and, if
approved, we cannot guarantee that these rate increases will be granted in a
timely or sufficient manner to cover the investments and expenses for which we
initially sought the rate increase.</font></div>

Order No. 7657 was signed by the DEPSC on September 22, 2009, approving the
settlement agreement, which made the existing 15% temporary increase in base
rates permanent.&#160;&#160;Since the rate was equal to the 15% temporary
increase in rates charged to customers since December 17, 2008, Artesian Water
was not required to refund any amounts to customers.&#160;&#160;This settlement
also included the agreement that Artesian Water will not apply for a further
rate increase for an 18-month period from the date of the DEPSC&#8217;s order closing
this application.&#160;&#160;It was also agreed that the revenue recovered by
the Company pursuant to the settlement does not include any recovery of funds
attributable to state income tax expense, as it is unlikely that any state
income tax will be paid by Artesian Water during the rate effective
period.</font></div>

20, 2007, the DEPSC entered Order No. 7142 which re-opened Regulation Docket No.
51.&#160;&#160;By this Order, the DEPSC proposed to repeal rules implemented in
2001 and replace them with new "Regulations Governing Certificates of Public
Convenience and Necessity."&#160;&#160;The proposed rules addressed the content
of how notifications are sent to landowners, the definitions for the &#8220;Proposed
Service Area,&#8221; and the requirement of the applying utility to certify that it
will actually provide water services to a new proposed service territory within
three years.&#160;&#160;If water service is not provided within the three year
time frame, the proposed rule provides a mechanism for the DEPSC to determine
whether the utility should be able to retain the new CPCN.&#160;&#160;In the
March 2009 proceedings, the DEPSC recommended that a utility provide water
service to a new proposed service territory within five years.&#160;&#160;Under
the revised proposal a landowner could request the opportunity to opt-out of the
CPCN if service has not been provided within five years.&#160;&#160;The utility
would be entitled to a hearing before DEPSC on the opt-out
request.&#160;&#160;On March 2, 2010, the DEPSC reached decisions on these
proposed rules.&#160;&#160;They voted unanimously to not adopt any change
regarding the proposed five-year opt out rule, but did approve changes to the
definition of &#8220;Proposed Service Area.&#8221;&#160;&#160;In the future, a Proposed
Service Area will encompass either a single parcel or two or more contiguous
parcels that will be provided water by the same system or main

statute permits water utilities to put into effect, on a semi-annual basis,
increases related to specific types of distribution system improvements through
a Distribution System Improvement Charge or DSIC.&#160;&#160;This charge is

applications that normally recognize changes in a water utility&#8217;s overall
financial position.&#160;&#160;The DSIC approval process is less costly when
compared to the approval process for general rate increase
requests.&#160;&#160;The DSIC rate applied between base rate filings is capped
at 7.5% of the amount billed to customers under otherwise applicable rates and
charges, and the DSIC rate increase applied can not exceed 5% within any
12-month period.&#160;&#160;We did not have DSIC in effect during

Company, by contract, has control over the design and construction of the
treatment facility.&#160;&#160;NSRWRC is financially responsible for designing
and building the treatment facility.&#160;&#160;Under the terms of the
agreement, Artesian Resources acts as the guarantor of a $10 million
construction loan, secured by a 75 acre parcel purchased by NSRWRC on July 1,
2008 for approximately $5 million.&#160;&#160;The interest rate on the
construction loan is variable based on LIBOR Advantage Rate plus 225 basis
points.&#160;&#160;The construction loan includes provisions that require
Artesian Resources to assume the debt and all liabilities arising from that debt
under certain circumstances, including the bankruptcy of NSRWRC.&#160;&#160;In
the event of default by NSRWRC, Artesian Resources shall pay NSRWRC's
obligations due to the financial institution; or on demand of the financial
institution immediately deposit all amounts due under the
obligation.&#160;&#160;As of March 31, 2010, approximately $7.6 million has been
drawn on the loan, which is included in the Lines of Credit on our Consolidated
Balance Sheet.&#160;&#160;As of March 31, 2010, approximately $7.9 million is
included in non-utility property and was comprised of the land and construction
in progress of the facility.&#160;&#160;The entire capitalization of NSRWRC is
comprised of the amounts borrowed against the $10 million construction
loan.&#160;&#160;In connection with the purchase of the treatment facility site,
as of June 30, 2008, Artesian Utility agreed to commit $3.0 million to NSRWRC,
payable in 10 equal annual installments, which commenced on June 30,
2008.&#160;&#160;In April 2009, Artesian Utility agreed to accelerate two of its
payments to NSRWRC in exchange for a $450,000 reduction in the total
commitment.&#160;&#160;As a result of the April 2009 reduction in the commitment
and the acceleration of the payments, the remaining balance of $1,350,000 was to
be repaid over the following 5 years with a final payment of $150,000 due on
June 30, 2014.&#160;&#160;As of March 31, 2010, the balance owed to NSRWRC was
$1,350,000.&#160;&#160;There has been a nominal investment in NSRWRC by the
owner of NSRWRC.&#160;&#160;The treatment facility will be owned by NSRWRC until
the initial loan for the construction of the treatment facility is
repaid.&#160;&#160;At that time, the treatment facility will be transferred to
the Company for nominal value as contributed property.&#160;&#160;Immediately
following the transfer of the treatment facility and extinguishment of debt,
NSRWRC will be dissolved.</font></div>

companies continually evaluate VIEs for consolidation, rather than assessing
based upon the occurrence of triggering events.&#160;&#160;This revised guidance

thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting.&#160;&#160;This new
guidance now requires a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of
significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements
and describe the reasons for the transfers, and in the reconciliation for fair
value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity
should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and
settlements for Level 3 fair value measurements.&#160;&#160;In addition, this
new guidance clarifies the requirements of existing disclosures.&#160;&#160;For
purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and
liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the
appropriate classes of assets and liabilities and a reporting entity should
provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure
fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value
measurements.&#160;&#160;This new guidance is effective for interim and annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures
about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of

increase in water consumption.&#160;&#160;In addition, a portion of the increase
in water sales revenue reflects an increase of approximately 1,300 customers
