Business Summary
Western Water Company identifies, manages, acquires, develops, sells and leases water and water rights in the western United States. Prior to 2000, the Company had been developing this business through the acquisition of water rights and other interests in water, the purchase of real estate for the water rights associated with such real estate and the sale or lease of water. The Company, directly and indirectly, owns a diverse portfolio of water rights, as well as real estate, in California and in the Cherry Creek basin of Colorado. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, Western Water sold certain of its assets, but decided not to engage in the liquidation or sale of the Company. The Company also sought to sell certain of its non-strategic assets to support the development of its primary water wholesaling business, in light of its revised business plan.
