Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“Income Tax Uncertainties - Management evaluates, at least annually, whether any tax position reported on a tax return is more likely than not to be sustained if challenged. Management believes no such positions exist that would have significant impact on the Authority's financial position and results of operations. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, no liability for uncertain tax benefits was recorded. The Authority's tax returns are subject to possible examination by the taxing authorities. For federal income tax purposes the tax returns essentially remain open for possible examination for a period up to three years after the date on which those returns are filed. Penalties and interest assessed by income taxing authorities are included in operating expenses, if incurred.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Income Tax Uncertainties - Management evaluates, at least annually, whether any tax position reported on a tax return is more likely than not to be sustained if challenged. Management believes no such positions exist that would have significant impact on the Authority's financial position and results of operations. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, no liability for uncertain tax benefits was recorded. The Authority's tax returns are subject to possible examination by the taxing authorities. For federal income tax purposes the tax returns essentially remain open for possible examination for a period up to three years after the date on which those returns are filed. Penalties and interest assessed by income taxing authorities are included in operating expenses, if incurred.
