                     Notes to Financial Statements


1.   Interim Reporting 

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been pre-
     pared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
     and with Form 10-QSB requirements.  Accordingly, they do not
     include all of the information and footnotes required by general-
     ly accepted accounting principles for complete financial state-
     ments.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered
     necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
     results for the three month period ended March 31, 1995, are not
     necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
     the year ended December 31, 1995.  For further information, refer
     to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
     Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
     December 31, 1994.

2.   Related Party Transactions 

     Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner
     is allowed reimbursements of expenses incurred to manage the
     Partnership.  For the three month periods ended March 31, 1994
     and 1995, the Partnership accrued, but did not pay, fees and
     reimbursements to the general partner of $66,000 and $36,000
     respectively.

3.   Long-term Debt

     In January 1990, the Partnership received the proceeds of an
     $8,000,000 non-recourse refinancing of its Steamboat Springs
     Project ("Project" or "Steamboat Springs Plant") with Westing-
     house Credit Corporation ("WCC").  The WCC loan, which is secured
     by the Project assets including the resource lease, plant and
     equipment and related contract rights, bears interest at 11.5%
     per annum and must be repaid over ten years in 40 quarterly
     payments of principal and interest.  This loan is currently in
     default, primarily because the loan reserves have not been
     maintained at required levels.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Opera-
tions and Financial Condition.

          Overall electric power sales decreased about 12% this past
     quarter as compared to the first quarter of 1994.  This decrease
     in power sales was mainly due to several unexpected generator
     failures.  Maintenance and repair costs this past quarter were
     about 26% higher than those or the first quarter of 1994.

          The Steamboat Springs Plant is in compliance with environ-
     mental and regulatory agencies.


                      PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

     There have been no material changes in the status of legal
proceedings since the Partnership's report on Form 10-K dated December
31, 1994.

Item 5.   Other Information

     The general partner is still exploring various alternatives
concerning the sale or refinancing of the Steamboat project which, as
yet, there is nothing definitive to report.

Item 6.   Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K

     The Partnership did not file a report on Form 8-K during the
three months ended March 31, 1995.
