Pursuant to Section 33(a) of the Public Utility  Holding Company Act of 1935, as
amended (the "1935 Act") and Rule 57 thereunder,  AEP  Resources,  Inc., an Ohio
corporation ("Resources"),  acting on behalf of AEP Delaware Investment Company,
a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Company"),
hereby notifies the Commission that the Company is a "foreign  utility  company"
("FUCO") within the meaning of Section 33(a) of the 1935 Act.


ITEM 1

      State the name of the entity claiming foreign utility company status,  its
      business  address,  and a  description  of the  facilities  used  for  the
      generation,  transmission  and distribution of electric energy for sale or
      for the  distribution  at retail of natural or  manufactured  gas.  To the
      extent known, identify each person that holds five percent (5%) or more of
      any class of voting securities of the foreign utility company and describe
      the amount and nature of the interest.

      The name and  business  address of the  entity  for which  FUCO  status is
claimed:

      c/o CT Corporation
      1209 Orange Street
      Wilmington, DE 19801

Description of Facilities:

      The  Company  indirectly  owns  and  operates  a  system  engaged  in  the
distribution  of  electricity  and the supply of natural gas  exclusively in the
United Kingdom.

      Resources owns one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding shares of the
voting securities of the Company.

      between the foreign  utility  company and such  company,  and the purchase
      price paid by any such domestic associate  public-utility  company for its
      interest in the foreign utility company.

      Resources  is a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  American  Electric  Power
Company,  Inc. ("AEP"), a registered  "holding company" as defined in the 1935

"associate companies" of the Company:

AEP Generating Company
Appalachian Power Company
Columbus Southern Power Company

Kentucky Power Company
Kingsport Power Company

Company,  Kingsport  Power  Company,  Ohio Power Company,  Ohio Valley  Electric
Corporation  ("OVEC")  and  Wheeling  Power  Company  (collectively,   the  "AEP
Subsidiaries"). In addition, OVEC is a "holding company" of IKEC.

      None of the AEP Subsidiaries  have any relationship with the Company other
than sharing AEP as a "holding company" and being an "associate  company" of the
Company.  None of the AEP  Subsidiaries  paid any part of the purchase price for
the Company.
