Item 5. Other Events
A new Procedural Order has been issued by the Arizona Corporation Commission
(ACC) further extending the hearing on the proposed merger of Southwest Gas
Corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of ONEOK, Inc. to February 22, 2000.
On January 10, 2000, ONEOK requested a 10-day delay in filing its rebuttal
testimony to a January ACC staff report. In response, the ACC staff requested
that the hearing be postponed to February 22, 2000 in order to give the ACC
staff sufficient time to review ONEOK's filing and to conduct additional
discovery, if necessary.
