Item 5. Other Events

    Washington Gas Light Company (Washington Gas or the Company) announced that on October 19, 2000, the Public Service Commission of Maryland (PSC or MD) declined to approve an agreement that would have enabled it to implement an incentive-based rate plan. The agreement was filed jointly with the Maryland Office of People's Counsel and PSC of MD Staff on January 6, 2000.

    In the absence of approval of the agreement, the Company will continue to charge the base rates that have been in effect since December 1994 and will operate under the traditional regulatory process, while maintaining the current high level of service to customers. The Company is reviewing the PSC of MD's decision and is evaluating its options.
