REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To: The Participants and Administrator
of the Savings Plan for Employees of
American Water Works Company, Inc.
and Its Designated Subsidiaries
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets available for
benefits, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available
for benefits of the Savings Plan for Employees of American Water Works
Company, Inc. and Its Designated Subsidiaries (the ``Plan'') at December 31,
1993 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the period
August 1, 1993 (inception) to December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the plan's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The additional information included in
Schedules I and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is
not a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional
information required by ERISA. Such information has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Savings Plan for Employees of
AMERICAN WATER WORKS COMPANY, INC.
and Its Designated Subsidiaries
Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
- - ----------------------------
The following description of the American Water Works Company, Inc. (the
``Company'') Savings Plan for Employees of American Water Works Company, Inc.
and Its Designated Subsidiaries (the ``Plan'') provides only general
information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more
complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General
- - -------
The Plan is a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan covering
substantially all full-time employees of the Company who have six months of
service and are age eighteen or older. The effective date of the Plan is
August 1, 1993 and it is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (``ERISA'').
Contributions
- - -------------
Participants may contribute up to 6% of their annual wages before
overtime and premium compensation. Participant contributions are limited by
law; for the period August 1, 1993 to December 31, 1993, this limit was
$3,747. For the period August 1, 1993 through July 31, 1994 the Company
matches 30% of the first 2% of participant contributions. Beginning August 1,
1994 the Company will match 40% of the first 3% of participant contributions.
All matching contributions are invested in Company stock. In the event of
certain circumstances, the Company may contribute additional amounts.
Forfeitures, if any, are used to reduce the Company's future contributions to
the Plan.
Participant Accounts
- - --------------------
With the exception of the Company's contributions to the Plan, each
participant may elect to have their contributions invested in any combination
of four funds in multiples of 25%. The participant's accounts are credited
with their contributions and an allocation of the Company's contribution and
Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant contributions or account
balances, as defined in the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is
entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.
<PAGE>
Vesting
- - -------
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions
plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the remainder of their accounts is
based on years of continuous service. A participant is fully vested after
five years of credited service.
Payment of Benefits
- - -------------------
Participants may, upon attaining 59 1/2 years of age, elect to withdraw
all or a portion of the value of their account. Upon termination of service
for any reason other than retirement or disability, a participant may elect
to withdraw the value of their account, or defer this distribution until age
65. In all cases, unless earlier withdrawn, a participant will receive the
interest in their account upon the earlier of retirement after reaching age
65, death or total disability, except that in all cases such distribution
will be made upon attainment of age 70 1/2 for participants who are still
working for the Company. Participants may elect to receive a lump sum amount
equal to the value of their account, an annuity, or a combination of both.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- - ---------------------------------------

value representing the value at which shares of the fund may be purchased or

Contributions

Employee contributions are recorded in the period during which the
Company makes payroll deductions from the Plan participants' earnings.
Matching Company contributions are recorded in the same period.
Benefit Obligations

the Plan are $3,318 at December 31, 1993 and will be recognized in the Plan
financial statements when paid.
<PAGE>
NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS

NOTE 4 - PARTICIPANT LOANS
- - --------------------------
Under the terms of the Plan, participants may borrow from their accounts
a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum of the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their
contributions to the Plan including earnings thereon. Loans are generally for
a period not to exceed five years payable in equal monthly installments, are
secured by the balance in the participants' accounts and bear interest at a
<PAGE>
rate commensurate with local market rates for similar loans. If the
participant uses the proceeds to acquire their primary personal residence,
the loan may be for a period not to exceed thirty years. There were no loans
outstanding at December 31, 1993.
NOTE 5 - HARDSHIP WITHDRAWALS
- - -----------------------------
Participants under age 59 1/2 may withdraw all or part of their contributions
(excluding earnings) only under certain conditions of hardship. A hardship
withdrawal can only be requested after withdrawal of all rollover
contributions and any loans available under the Plan have been obtained.
Hardship withdrawals cannot be returned to the Plan and contributions cannot
be made to the Plan for 12 months after a hardship withdrawal has been made.
NOTE 6 - ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
- - --------------------------------
Although it has no obligation to do so, the Company pays substantially
all administrative expenses of the Plan.
NOTE 7 - ROLLOVER
- - -----------------
On August 31, 1993, American Water Works Company, Inc. and its
subsidiaries in Indiana, Missouri and Ohio acquired the midwestern water
affiliates of Avatar Holdings, Inc. As a result of this acquisition, on
November 24, 1993, eligible employees of the acquired companies transferred
their account balances totalling $629,467 from Avatar's qualified defined
contribution retirement plan to the Plan. Additionally, participants
transferred $11,408 from other qualified plans.
NOTE 8 - PLAN TERMINATION
- - -------------------------
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan
termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts.
NOTE 9 - INCOME TAX
- - -------------------
As of the date of these financial statements, the Plan is in the process
of applying for, but has not yet received, a tax determination from the
Internal Revenue Service. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax
counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in
compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and
ERISA and accordingly, the Plan is exempt from income taxes.
