In addition to the pipeline services rendered under the above contracts,

from all sources, including transportation of customer-owned gas delivered in
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, was approximately 77.0 million cubic feet.

The maximum one day sendout of Claimant for calendar year 1998 occurred on
December 30 and amounted to 551.5 million cubic feet of gas.

PECO ENERGY POWER COMPANY AND SUSQUEHANNA POWER COMPANY

PECO Energy Power Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Susquehanna Power
Company, own the Conowingo Hydroelectric Project, which they constructed under a
federal license dated February 20, 1926, issued by the Federal Power Commission
under the Federal Water Power Act of 1920. The original license expired in 1976
after its 50-year term was completed. A new license was issued August 14, 1980
and will expire September 1, 2014. This expiration date is concurrent with the
license for the Claimant's Muddy Run Pumped Storage Project. The common
expiration date was based on FERC's desire to provide for concurrent future
relicensing of both projects since they are contiguous and are coordinated in
operation.

Susquehanna Power Company owns the dam, power plant and substations which are
located at Conowingo, Maryland, on the Susquehanna River about four miles above
tidewater, and also owns the portion of the pool and transmission lines in
Maryland. PECO Energy Power Company owns the portion of the pool and
transmission lines in Pennsylvania. These properties are operated under lease by
the affiliated company as described under Item 1.

The dam is of solid concrete masonry construction and is approximately 4,650
feet in length, including the powerhouse, headworks, regulating gates,
gate-controlled spillway and abutments. The power station has a total rated
installed generating capacity of 512,000 kilowatts consisting of seven original
hydro-electric generating units each rated at 36,000 kilowatts capacity, and
four additional units installed in 1964 each rated at 65,000 kilowatts capacity.
The total station capacity has been reduced to 410 MW in the summer season due
to the water releases required by FERC. The reservoir extends upstream about 15
miles over land on which licensee subsidiaries of the Claimant have flowage
rights.

There are two transmission substations having a total rated capacity of 610,000
KVA. One, located on the roof of Conowingo Station, has a rated capacity of
560,000 KVA and steps up the energy generated at Conowingo Station from 13,200
volts to 230,000 volts for transmission to the electric lines of the Claimant.
The other is a 13,200-33,000 volt substation with a rated capacity of 50,000
KVA, from which energy is supplied to Conowingo Power Company, an affiliate of
Conectiv, and to the Claimant for distribution.

There are 63 circuit miles of 220,000 volt transmission lines and 29 circuit
miles of 33,000 volt transmission lines. The 220,000 volt transmission lines
consist of two single circuit lines supported on steel towers, of which 42
circuit miles, from the Conowingo plant to the Maryland-Pennsylvania state line,
near Goat Hill, Pennsylvania, are owned by Susquehanna Power Company, and the
balance of 21 circuit miles from the Maryland-Pennsylvania state line to a point
at the boundary between West Nottingham and East Nottingham Townships in
Pennsylvania are owned by PECO Energy Power Company. The 33,000 volt
transmission lines are owned by Susquehanna Power Company.

                                                                              10
