At the moment it is looking more like a 10 percent reduction by 2010.

It varies by allotment but that's about a 40 to 65 percent reduction.

It is for the government to decide how to try to meet the 20 percent reduction.

There were 39 fatalities in 2005, which was a slight reduction from the 41 fatalities that occurred in 2004 and a 40 percent reduction from 1998's 65 fatalities.

Even a small reduction in errors and rework can have a significant impact.

We think that a 1 percent reduction is doable. Some states in New England have already been able to reduce natural gas consumption without a major effort.
