Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
We have not completed our closing procedures, nor have our auditors performed review procedures, with respect to the three months ended September 30, 2018, and as such, the final results for this period are not yet available. However, we currently expect to record a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $50 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as a result of the identification of indicators of impairment associated with certain of our EfW facilities during the period. In connection with our continuing plant rationalization activities, we now estimate that, more likely than not, the assets will not be operated through their previously estimated economic lives.
