                  DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS

     1.   By an order dated December 21, 1993, Holding Company
Act Release No. 35-25956 (File No. 70-8287) (the "December 1993
Order"), Eastern Edison Company ("Eastern"), Montaup Electric
Company ("Montaup"), Blackstone Valley Electric Company
("Blackstone"), EUA Service Corporation ("Service"), Newport
Electric Corporation ("Newport") and EUA Ocean State Corporation
("Ocean State"), all subsidiaries of Eastern Utilities Associates
("EUA"), a registered holding company, were authorized, subject
to various terms and agreements, to issue and sell short-term
notes to banks ("Notes"), from time to time during the period
from January 1, 1994 to December 31, 1995, in aggregate amounts
outstanding at any one time not to exceed $35 million for
Eastern, $20 million for Montaup, $8 million for Blackstone, $7
million for Service, $6 million for Newport and $5 million for
Ocean State.  The Commission reserved jurisdiction over the issue
and sale of Notes in the additional amounts of $15 million for
Eastern, $5 million for Montaup, $7 million for Blackstone, $3
million for Service and $4 million for Newport.  Notes issued
under such authorization were renewable from time to time prior
to December 31, 1995, provided no such Notes matured after
September 30, 1996.

     2.   Eastern, Montaup, Blackstone, Service, Newport and
Ocean State each propose and hereby request authorization to
borrow funds through the period ending December 31, 1997 through
the issuance and sale of short-term notes to banks in aggregate
amounts outstanding at any one time not to exceed $20 million in
the case of Eastern, $20 million in the case of Montaup, $15
million in the case of Blackstone, $5 million in the case of
Service, $12 million in the case of Newport and $5 million in the
case of Ocean State.  The Notes will be issued to banks and
renewed from time to time as funds are required prior to December
31, 1997, provided no such notes will mature after September 30,
1998.

     3.   As of June 30, 1995 the amounts of short-term bank
loans outstanding, the amounts anticipated to be outstanding as
of December 31, 1995 and the pro forma aggregate amount of such
short-term borrowings anticipated to be outstanding at any one
time at or prior to December 31, 1995 are as follows:

                                         Aggregate Amount
                                          Outstanding at
          Outstanding   Anticipated        any one time
          at 06/30/95   at 12/31/95     12/31/95-12/31/97

Eastern            $0    $3,050,000         $9,950,000
Montaup     6,087,000             0          9,850,000
Blackstone          0     4,550,000          7,550,000
Newport             0     4,850,000          6,300,000
Service             0             0          2,550,000
Ocean State         0             0          2,200,000


     4.   Notes will be issued to banks pursuant to informal
credit line arrangements which provide for borrowings at a
floating prime rate or at available fixed money market rates.
Notes will mature in not more than one year from the date of
issuance.  Notes bearing interest at the floating prime rate will
be subject to prepayment at any time without premium.  Notes
bearing interest at available money market rates, which in all
cases will be less than the prime rate at time of issuance, will
not be prepayable.

     5.   Credit lines with banks are subject in some cases to
commitment fees.  The list of existing bank credit lines,
applicable commitment fees and effective cost of borrowings are
set forth in Exhibit G hereto.  The existing bank credit lines
expire at June 30, 1996 and their continued availability is
subject to continuing review by the banks involved.  Bank credit
lines and arrangements may be increased or decreased or changed
and additional lines may be obtained from other banks not shown
on the exhibit.

     6.   The existing credit line arrangements provide for
borrowing at the prime rate or money market rates together with a
commitment fee equal to 3/16 of 1% multiplied by the line of
credit.  Any such commitment fee will be allocated among the six
applicants and other EUA system companies who have access to
system lines of credit pursuant to applicable regulatory
authority, in proportion to their respective borrowing
authorizations.

     7.   The funds to be borrowed by Eastern, Montaup,
Blackstone, Newport, Service and Ocean State from the issuance of
the Notes will be applied, together with other funds available to
these companies, to:  (1) renew outstanding notes payable to
banks, as they become due; (2) finance their respective 1996 and
1997 cash construction expenditures; (3) provide funds to meet
certain sinking fund, and retirements or redemptions of
outstanding securities; (4) provide funds to meet working capital
requirements; and, (5) for other corporate purposes.

     8.   The Notes issued to banks will be repaid by any
combination or by all of the following methods respective to each
company:  (1) the issuance of new notes; (2) the internal
generation of funds; and (3) the issuance and sale of long-term
debt and equity securities.

     9.   The applicants do not now, and will not in the future,
own or operate or be an equity participant in any exempt
wholesale generator or foreign utility company, as such terms are
defined in the Energy Policy Act of 1992, and do not now, and
will not in the future, receive any benefits or incur any
obligations under any service, sales of construction contracts
with an exempt wholesale generator or foreign utility company as
a result of the proposed transactions.  None of the proceeds from
the issuance and sale of the Notes proposed herein will be used
by the applicants for the acquisition of an interest in an exempt
wholesale generator or foreign utility company.


                                  II
                     FEES COMMISSIONS AND EXPENSES

                                  III
                    APPLICABLE STATUTORY PROVISIONS

     1.   Issuance and sale of notes by Eastern, Montaup,
Newport, Blackstone, Ocean State and Service.  Sections 6(a)(1)

                                  IV
                          REGULATORY APPROVAL

     No other state Commission, and no Federal Commission, other
than the Securities and Exchange Commission, has jurisdiction
over the proposed transactions.


                                  V
                              PROCEDURE

     It is anticipated that the first of the borrowings under
this Declaration will be made on January 1, 1996.  Accordingly,
request hereby is made that the Commission enter an Order in
connection with the borrowings proposed herein not later than
December 1, 1995 with respect to Eastern Edison, Montaup,
Blackstone, Newport, Service and Ocean State.  It is not
considered necessary that there be a recommended decision by a
hearing officer or by any other responsible officer of the
Commission.  The Division of Corporate Regulation may assist in
the preparation of the Commission's decision, and it is believed
that the 30-day waiting period would be inappropriate.
