*Effective as of 11:59 p.m., Central Time, on April 26, 2000, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Wisconsin Energy Corporation (Commission
File No. 1-9057) was merged with and into the registrant in a
statutory merger in which all of the outstanding shares of WICOR,
Inc. Common Stock (including the Associated Common Stock Purchase
Rights) were converted into the right to receive cash (or, in the
case of 38,000 shares of restricted stock, shares of restricted
Wisconsin Energy Common Stock), and the registrant became a wholly
owned subsidiary of Wisconsin Energy. An application to strike the
WICOR Common Stock (and Associated Common Stock Purchase Rights)
from listing and registration on the New York Stock Exchange is
being filed with the Commission by the Exchange. This Form 15 is
being filed to avoid any deemed registration under Section 12(g)
under Rule 12g-2 and to suspend any reporting obligation under
Section 15(d) that otherwise might arise.
