ITEM 1.    SECURITY AND ISSUER.

     This Report on Schedule 13D relates to the common stock, par value $5.00
per share ("LILCO Common Stock"), of Long Island Lighting Company, a New York
corporation ("LILCO").  The Report on Schedule 13D was originally filed by The 
Brooklyn Union Gas Company, a New York corporation ("Brooklyn Union") on January
8, 1997 (the "Brooklyn Union Original Schedule 13D"), and was amended and 
supplemented by Amendment No. 1 ("Brooklyn Union Amendment No. 1"), filed by 
Brooklyn Union and KeySpan Energy Corporation, a New York corporation
("KeySpan").  Amendment No. 1 was also the original report of KeySpan ("KeySpan
Original Schedule 13D").  This Report amends and supplements certain of the
information contained in the KeySpan Original Schedule 13D and this Report 
constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Report on Schedule 13D of KeySpan (referred 
to herein as "KeySpan Amendment No. 1"). 

     Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms not otherwise defined
herein shall have the same meanings as those set forth in the Brooklyn Union 
Original Schedule 13D, as amended by the KeySpan Original Schedule 13D.

ITEM 2.    IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

     (NO CHANGES)


ITEM 3.    SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     (SEE ITEM 4)


ITEM 4.    PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     The information contained in Item 3 of the KeySpan Original Schedule 13D is
hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

     As previously reported in the Brooklyn Union Original Schedule 13D, 
Brooklyn Union and LILCO entered into an option agreement (the "LILCO Option 
Agreement"), dated as of June 26, 1997 and amended on October 17, 1997.  As more
fully described in the Brooklyn Union Original Schedule 13D and the KeySpan 
Original Schedule 13D, the LILCO Option Agreement granted Brooklyn Union an 
option to purchase shares from LILCO subject to certain terms and conditions
(the "LILCO Option").  On September 29, 1997 Brooklyn Union assigned to KeySpan
all rights and obligations of Brooklyn Union under the LILCO Option Agreement 
and substituted KeySpan for Brooklyn Union therein.  

     On May 28, 1998, the LILCO Option terminated pursuant to Section 2 of the 
LILCO Option Agreement, and without having been exercised, upon consummation of
the merger of BL Merger Sub.,Inc. with and into KeySpan, pursuant to the terms 
of the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Exchange and Merger, by and 
between Brooklyn Union and LILCO, dated as of June 26, 1997, as amended by the 
Amendment, Assignment and Assumption Agreement, by and among Brooklyn Union, 
LILCO and KeySpan, dated as of September 29, 1997.
