Item 5. Other Events
Central Illinois Light Company (CILCO) is a subsidiary of CILCORP
Inc. (the Company). CILCO is a public utility under the laws of the
State of Illinois and, as such, is subject to the jurisdiction of the
Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC).
CILCO filed a request with the ICC on January 14, 1994, to increase
gas base rates to reflect both the current costs of providing gas
service and the net investment of more than $50 million since 1991 in
the gas system. The revised rates are designed to increase annual
gas revenues approximately $15.0 million or 8.9% based upon an
adjusted test year ended December 31, 1995. The filing requests a
9.4% return on original cost rate base and a 12.0% return on common
equity. CILCO has not increased its base rates for gas service since
January 1991. Management cannot predict the outcome of the filing.
A decision from the ICC on the filing is not expected until late
1994.
