Looking ahead:
Our performance in 2007-08 is expected to continue at its current level due to our ongoing sewer inspection, cleaning and lining programs which have been developed to contribute to the achievement of this indicator. Our condition monitoring and preventative maintenance programs will continue, including condition assessment of sewers, sewer cleaning and tree root treatment. We will continue our sewer rehabilitation programs to reline our high risk or poor performing assets. The 2008-09 target we will be working to is 32.4 blockages per 100kms.
