                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULES

                          DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996



1.  GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN:

The following brief description of the Portland General Holdings, Inc. (PGH or
the Company) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) provides general information
only.  Readers should refer to the Plan Prospectus and Employee Handbook for a
more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

GENERAL

The Plan first became effective October 1, 1982.  On July 1, 1997, Portland
General Corporation (PGC) merged into Enron Oregon Corp. (Enron).  In
conjunction with the merger, the Plan, formally known as Portland General
Corporation Retirement Savings Plan, was renamed Portland General Holdings,
Inc. Retirement Savings Plan.  The Plan was restated effective June 25, 1997.
Upon completion of the merger, PGC shares were converted to .9825 shares of
Enron and employer matching contributions were made in Enron stock subsequent
to the merger.

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of
PGH, Portland General Electric Company (PGE) and other affiliates who have
completed one year of service as defined by the Plan.  It is administered by
the PGH Retirement Savings Plan Benefits Administration Committee.  The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (ERISA), as amended.

TRUSTEES

The trustee for the Stable Assets Fund, Bond Fund, Balanced Fund, Core Equity
Fund, Aggressive Equity Fund, International Equity Fund, Loan Fund, and Model
Portfolios A-E is the Northern Trust Company (Primary Trustee).  The trustee
for the Enron Common Stock Fund, the PGH nonleveraged Employee Stock Ownership
Plan (ESOP), and the Portland General Electric (PGE) leveraged ESOP is Wells
Fargo (Secondary Trustee).

CONTRIBUTIONS

The Plan allows participating employees to contribute up to a total of 15% of
their annual base pay (before-tax and after-tax combined).  The Tax Reform Act
of 1986 limits employee before-tax contributions to $9,500 for 1997 and 1996.
These amounts may be adjusted annually based upon changes in the consumer price
index.

The employer matching contribution is 100% of the first 6% of a participant's
eligible earnings, as defined by the Plan.  The matching contribution is made
entirely in whole or fractional shares of Enron Common Stock through the PGH
nonleveraged ESOP or PGE leveraged ESOP.  All shares of common stock were
allocated to participants and transferred out of the PGE leveraged ESOP during
1997 to the nonleveraged PGH ESOP.  ESOP allocations shall be valued at a price
defined by the Plan document.  The PGH nonleveraged ESOP purchased shares on
the open market totaling $3,525,046 in 1997.  The PGE leveraged ESOP
transferred shares from the unallocated fund to the allocated fund valued at
$5,241,208 in 1997.

INVESTMENT OPTIONS

Participants are offered the option of investing in seven investment funds and
five premixed portfolios held by the Master Trust.  The premixed portfolios are
comprised of various combinations of the seven investment funds and are
designed to meet various investing needs.  If a participant elects to invest in
Model Portfolios A-E described below, all their current funds (except employer
matching contributions) and future payroll deferrals must be invested in that
single portfolio.  Employer matching contributions become participant directed
upon the participant reaching age 50 and having completed at least five years
of participation in the Plan.  At that time, the participant may elect once
each year to transfer from his ESOP account an amount that does not exceed the
value of 25% of the shares of Enron stock credited to his ESOP account to
investment options other than employer stock.

The following is a description of the various fund options:

   a. The Stable Assets Fund invests primarily in investment contracts whose
      rate of interest is fixed by insurance companies.  As of December 31,
      1997 and 1996, there were 6 and 14 participating insurance companies,
      respectively, with guaranteed investment contracts.  In 1997 and 1996,
      the Stable Assets fund invested in synthetic investment contracts
      (Note 8).  The Stable Assets Fund may invest in other stable assets
      outside the insurance industry in order to diversify its holdings.

   b. The Bond Fund invests in a diversified mix of fixed income investments.
      The fund's assets consist primarily of Treasury bonds, Corporate bonds,
      U.S. Government Agency securities, pass-through securities, and high-
      yield debt securities.

   c. The Balanced Fund portfolio is a combination of two funds.  The Balanced
      Fund targets a 60% allocation to a Common Stock Fund with the remainder
      allocated to a Fixed Income Securities Fund (a bond fund).

   d. The Core Equity Fund consists primarily of a diversified portfolio of
      large capitalization common stocks domiciled in the United States.

   e. The Aggressive Equity Fund consists primarily of a diversified portfolio
      of intermediate to smaller capitalization common stocks domiciled in the
      United States.  In addition, this fund may also invest in stocks of
      distressed companies where a turnaround is likely.

   f. The International Equity Fund is a diversified portfolio issued by
      companies with headquarters outside of the United States.  Asset
      allocation emphasizes Europe, Australia, and the Far East.

   g. Model Portfolios

      Portfolio A is an ultraconservative fund with the highest concentration
      in the Stable Assets and Bond Funds.

      Portfolio B is a conservative fund with the highest concentration in the
      Stable Assets, Bond, and Core Equity Funds.

      Portfolio C is a moderate fund with a higher concentration of equities
      while still maintaining a high concentration of the Stable Assets and
      Bond Funds.

      Portfolio D is an aggressive fund with a still higher concentration in
      the Core Equity, Aggressive Equity, and International Equity Funds.

      Portfolio E is an ultra-aggressive fund investing only in the Core
      Equity, Aggressive Equity, and International Equity Funds.

   h. Enron Common Stock Fund and ESOPs

      The Enron Common Stock Fund invests in Enron Common Stock.  Based upon
      participant contributions, dividend reinvestments, transfers, and
      withdrawals, the Secondary Trustee may buy or sell shares on the open
      market.

      The PGH Nonleveraged ESOP invests in Enron Common Stock based upon
      employer matching contributions for PGH and affiliated company employee
      participants.

      The PGE Leveraged ESOP invested in PGC Common Stock based upon employer
      matching contributions for PGE employee participants.  The Leveraged ESOP
      borrowed $36 million in late 1990 from PGE to fund the purchase of PGC
      Common Stock for PGE employees.  During 1997, all unallocated shares were
      allocated to participant accounts, the remaining loan balance was paid,
      and all leveraged shares were transferred to the PGH nonleveraged
      account.

LOAN FUND

This fund records the issuance and repayment of loan principal and related
interest over the life of loans issued to participants.  The loan program
allows active employees participating in the Plan to borrow up to one-half the
value of their account, but not more than $50,000, over a maximum term of 60
months.  Participants pay interest to their account based upon the share
secured interest rate of the Electra Credit Union.  The interest rate ranges on
outstanding loans at December 31, 1997 was 6.00% to 7.33% and had maturity
dates ranging from January 1998 to December 2002.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and
allocation of (a) the Company's matching contribution (ESOP only) and (b) net
Plan earnings.  Allocations are based upon participant earnings (eligible
compensation) or account balances, as defined by the Plan.  The benefit to
which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
participant's account.  Participants are immediately vested in their accounts.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

The full value of the account is payable upon termination of employment,
retirement, disability, or death.  Retirees and former employees may choose to
leave all or part of the full value of the account in the Plan up to age
70-1/2.  After age 70-1/2, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) required minimum
distribution criteria must be met.  No additional contributions may be made
after retirement, termination, or death.  For the year ended December 31, 1997,
participant disbursements are transferred from the employees' investment
elections to the Stable Assets Fund for distribution.  Participant
distributions of Enron common stock are disbursed directly from the ESOPs and
Enron Common Stock Fund.  For cash distribution of participants' investment in
the PGE Leveraged ESOP, Enron common stock is repurchased from the participant.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting.

                                       -4-

USE OF ESTIMATES

Management makes estimates and assumptions when preparing the financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  These
estimates and assumptions effect the amounts reported in the accompanying
financial statements and the notes thereto.  Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

INVESTMENT VALUATION

Investments are recorded at quoted market prices or at estimated fair value.
Many factors are considered in arriving at fair value.  In general, however,
corporate bonds are valued based on yields currently available on comparable
securities of issuers with similar credit ratings.  Investments in certain
restricted common stocks are valued at the quoted market price of the issuer's
unrestricted common stock less an appropriate discount.  If a quoted market
price for unrestricted common stock of the issuer is not available, restricted
common stocks are valued at a multiple of current earnings less an appropriate
discount.  The multiple chosen is consistent with multiples of similar
companies based on current market prices.  Investment contracts with insurance
companies are stated at contract value (Note 7).  Participant loans are stated
at cost, which approximates fair value.

INCOME RECOGNITION

The difference in fair value from one period to the next is recognized and
included in net depreciation in fair value of investments in the accompanying
statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits.  The net
depreciation in fair value of investments also included realized gains and
losses.

For assets held outside the Master Trust, interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Company pays administrative fees of the Plan, including trustee, record
keeper and audit fees.  The Master Trust pays investment management fees,
brokerage fees, commissions and other costs associated with the administration
of the Master Trust.  Participants pay recordkeeper fees associated with their
loans.

3.  TAX STATUS:

The IRS has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated May 23, 1995
that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable
sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).  The Plan has been amended since
that date.  In the opinion of the Plan's administrator, the Plan is designed
and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable provisions of
the IRC.

4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

Certain Plan investments are shares in funds managed by Northern Trust Company
and Wells Fargo.  Northern Trust Company and Wells Fargo are the trustees as
defined by the Plan and, therefore, these investments and investment
transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.  As the Plan holds
common stock of Enron as an investment, these investments and investment
transactions also qualify as party-in-interest transactions.

7.  INVESTMENT CONTRACTS WITH INSURANCE COMPANIES:

The Stable Assets Fund of the Master Trust invests in a diversified portfolio
of guaranteed investment contracts (GICs) issued by major U.S. and Canadian
life insurance companies.

The estimated fair value of all GICs at December 31, 1997 and 1996 was
approximately $39,285,455 and $60,531,591, respectively.  Even though the total
fair value of GICs varies from contract value, participants will only realize
the contract value since these GICs are not negotiable on an open market.

The total fair value of the GICs was estimated using various discount rates
based upon an average maturity.

In December 1995, the Confederation Life contracts with face value totaling
$2,085,000 were assigned to a third party for $1,423,000.  The proceeds plus
approximately $2 million in cash were used to purchase a three year, separate
account GIC with Pacific Mutual.  The loss on the Confederation Life assignment
of $662,000 will be deferred over the three year contract period of the Pacific
Mutual contract, resulting in a net fixed interest rate of .78%.

Following are the contract values of these contracts at December 31, 1997 and
1996.

THE TOTAL CREDITING INTEREST RATE AND AVERAGE YIELD WERE APPROXIMATELY 5.5% IN
1997 AND 7% IN 1996.

8.  OTHER INVESTMENT CONTRACTS:

In December 1995 and 1996, the Plan allocated $10,000,000 and $10,500,000,
respectively, of the Stable Asset Fund for investment in synthetic investment
contracts.  These contracts operate similarly to a guaranteed investment
contract, except that the assets are held by the Primary Trustee.  Under these
contracts, the Plan has authorized Dwight Asset Management Company (the
Manager) to make investment decisions as governed by the Management Guidelines
approved by the Plan Administrator.  Two separate financially responsible third
parties guarantee that plan transactions within each of the contracts will be
executed at contract value.  As of December 31, 1997, these investments are
reported at contract value in the accompanying statement of master trust assets
with fund information totaling $37,032,690, which approximates fair value
(Note 9).  The crediting interest rates for the two contracts are reset
quarterly and are a function of the Manager's performance against an
appropriate industry benchmark.  In no event shall the crediting interest rate
be less than 0%.  The first contract, effective December 1995 and totaling
$10,005,229, includes approximately $5 million of shares in a fund offered by
PIMCO Capital Management with the remaining $5 million of shares in a fund
offered by Lotsoff Capital.  At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the crediting
interest rate was 6.411% and 5.495%, respectively.  The second contract,
effective December 1996 and totaling $27,027,461, includes a portfolio of AAA
rated bonds consisting primarily of U.S. Government obligations, agency
passthroughs and asset-backed securities.  At December 31, 1997, the crediting
interest rate was 6.94%.

9.  PORTLAND GENERAL HOLDINGS, INC. INVESTMENT TRUST - MASTER TRUST:

The Master Trust invests for the benefit of the PGH Pension Plan and this Plan.
Units are purchased by these Plans based on the market value of units in the
Master Trust.  Income of the Master Trust is allocated to the Plan based on
units of participation and is shown in the following statements of changes in
master trust assets with fund information.

As of December 31, 1997, the participant directed investment funds shown in the
following statements of master trust assets with fund information are comprised
of funds in those investment options and funds from the premixed investment
options, Model Portfolios A-E.  The nonparticipant directed funds represent the
portion of Master Trust assets held by the PGH Pension Plan.  The following
table summarizes the percentage of each participant directed investment option
relative to the Plan's portion of the Master Trust fund balance on the
following page.  When these percentages are applied to the Plan investments in
the Master Trust, they approximate the by-fund investments shown in Note 5.
