PAUL WALKER CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT TO5 THIRD STREET OCEANSIDE, CALIFORNIA 92O54 (T14) 722-T089 The Board of Directors Carlsbad Municipal Water District: I have examined the balance sheets of Carlsbad Municipal Water District as of June 30, 1978 and 1977 an^ "the related statements of revenue and expense, of reserves, equity and fund balances, and of changes in financial position for the years then ended. My examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as I considered necessary in the circumstances. In my opinion, the above mentioned financial statements present fairly the financial position of Carlsbad Municipal Water District at June 30, 1978 and 1977 and the results of its operations and changes in financial position for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The supple- mentary data included in Schedules 1 and 2 have been subjected to the same auditing procedures, and, in my opinion, are stated fairly in all material respects when considered in conjunction with the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
