Item 2. Fees, Commissions and Expenses

The Company believes that current market conditions require an
increase above the 2% of principal amount of underwriters' fees,
commissions and expenses as specified in Item 2 in this File to
effect sales into the retail securities markets. Accordingly the
Company amends the last paragraph of Item 2 in this File to read
in its entirety as follows:

      The  fees,  commissions and expenses  of  the  underwriters
expected  to  be incurred with respect to the Bonds,  Debentures,
Entity   Interests,  Preferred,  Debentures  issued   under   the
Subordinated  Debenture Indenture, Tax-Exempt Bonds or  Municipal
Securities  will not exceed the lesser of 3.25% of the  principal
amount  of  the  Bonds, Debentures, Entity Interests,  Preferred,
Debentures issued under the Subordinated Debenture Indenture, Tax-
Exempt Bonds or Municipal Securities, respectively, to be sold or
those  generally paid at the time of pricing for sales  of  first
mortgage   bonds,  debentures,  subsidiary  interests,  preferred
stock,  subordinated  indenture debentures, tax-exempt  bonds  or
municipal  securities, respectively, having  the  same  maturity,
issued  by  companies  of comparable credit  quality  and  having
similar terms, conditions and features.


Item 5. Procedure

     The Company requests that the Commission's notice of
proposed transactions published pursuant to Rule 23(e) be issued
as soon as possible, and that the Commission's order authorizing
the remaining transactions proposed in this proceeding be issued
by October 1, 2002, to meet the Company's current financing
schedule.

     The Company hereby waives a recommended decision by a
hearing officer or any other responsible officer of the
Commission, agrees that the Staff of the Division of Investment
Management may assist in the preparation of the Commission's
decision, and requests that there be no waiting period between
the issuance of the Commission's order and the date it is to
become effective.
