SECTION C: ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS

C.1 COMMITMENT 1

Southfork Asset Management's first commitment is to reduce the facility's procurement of hazardous/toxic components.

C.1.a Briefly describe your activities and achievements related to this commitment or, if relevant, any circumstances that delayed progress this year.

The hotel and ranch both continue to search for no hazardous waste characteristic materials. The change over to Spartan in 2005 was a major impact for the hotels green purchasing policy. The Ranch implemented Spartan towards the end of 2006 which does not yet result in substantial numbers. Both facilities will be changing over to a special line of Ecolab dishwashing agents in 2007 and look forward to decreasing our numbers for 2007. Ranch purchases from Spartan for 2006 were 1099 lbs. Hotel purchases from Spartan for 2007 were 1099 lbs.
Hotel and Ranch increases/decreases are absolute numbers based on overall operations of the Hotel and Ranch.

Activities Conducted During 2005:
Southfork Asset Management secured a new vendor in 2005, Spartan Chemical Company. Spartan's line of products were created with current and future global environmental concerns in mind. Spartan products have no persistent, bioaccumulative or toxic chemicals, no ozone depleting compounds, no or low volatile organic compound content, no hazardous waste characteristics, no phosphate or phosphonates, and no carcinogens, mutagens or teratogens. We believe we are providing a line of environmentally preferred products that directly contribue to a cleaner, safer and healthier environment for our employees.

C.1.b Please report your facility's actual performance.

	Southfork Asset Management has communicated its environmental programs and projects to the community via numerous City of Plano functions hosted at the Southfork Hotel at which we have the opportunity to discuss our program, in detail, and provide a tour of our facility. We have also promoted our environmental goals and achievements through various community events in which we have received awards. Our accomplishments are also reported to the Green Hotel Association and Green Restaurant Association. Our environmental policy has been placed in both guest elevators. We continue to add our ISO, Green Restaurant Association and Green Hotel Association affiliation with the purchase of new paper collateral. Three containers were purchased and place in front of the hotel to encourage guest use in our recycling program. Two newsletters are generated monthly with specific sections devoted to environmental data: One to corporate clients and one to the hotel employees. Numerous printed collateral is in our guest rooms along with a seperate waste receptacle for recycling. We continue to give preference to vendors who can provide us with goods and services that have less of a negative impact on the environment. This information is distributed to our vendors via a letter from the General Manager.
