Equity Investment
Millennium Pipeline is an equity method investment and, therefore, Columbia OpCo is required to recognize a proportional share of Millennium Pipeline’s OCI. The remaining unrecognized loss at June 30, 2015 of $25.9 million, before tax, related to terminated interest rate swaps is being amortized over the period ending June 2025 into earnings using the effective interest method through interest expense as interest payments are made by Millennium Pipeline. The unrecognized loss of $25.9 million, before tax, and $16.6 million, after tax, at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, is included in gains and losses on cash flow hedges above.
