Item 5. Other Events.
On April 6, the Public Service Commission of Kentucky approved the Company's
application for an environmental cost recovery surcharge to recover certain
costs required to comply with the Federal Clean Air Act, as amended, and
those federal, state, and local environmental requirements which apply to
coal combustion wastes and by-products from facilities utilized for
production of energy from coal. As a result of the surcharge, the Company
expects that its electric revenues will increase by approximately $3.8
million in 1995 and $7.2 million in 1996.
