Since many of the descriptions in this section referred to other areas in the original manual, it was decided to "cut and paste" those descriptions into this document to maintain the integrity of the information. A "*" appears where ever this has happened. Errors (inaccurate or out-of-date information) have not been changed. While this manual is relatively current, addresses or phone numbers may have changed in the interim. Errors should be reported to the CPA/BC at the above e-mail address and copied to disobe@telus.net.
