	STATE*                  KWH       REVENUES
	Massachusetts    84,138,000     $1,315,218
	New Hampshire     44,711,000    $11,626,531

(d)     KWH purchased outside the State

	Massachusetts   278,144,000    $10,702,328

	or seller.


4.  Bangor Hydro has no direct or indirect interest in an EWG or
a foreign utility company.


			      EXHIBIT A
			      ---------

The consolidating statements of income and retained earnings of
Bangor Hydro and its subsidiary companies for the calendar year 1999
together with consolidating balance sheets of Bangor Hydro and its
subsidiary companies as of the close of the calendar year 1999 are
attached hereto as Exhibit A.  With the exception of MEPCO, Penobscot
Gas and Bangor Var Co., Inc., during 1999 the subsidiaries referred
to in item 1 above considered in the aggregate would not constitute a
significant subsidiary and their income is not material in relation
to the total enterprise. Consequently, financial statements for such
subsidiaries are not consolidated.  In the case of MEPCO, the Chester
SVC Partnership, Bangor-Pacific and Bangor Gas, financial statements
are not consolidated because Bangor Hydro or its wholly-owned
subsidiaries do not own a majority interest.  The 1999 financial
statements for East Branch Improvement Company which includes
investment in its wholly owned subsidiaries, Godfrey Falls Dam
Company and Sawtelle Brook Dam & Improvement Co. are included in
Exhibit A as are the 1999 financial statements for MEPCO, the Chester
SVC Partnership and Bangor Gas.



			      EXHIBIT B
			      ---------

A Financial Data Schedule is attached as Exhibit B.


			      EXHIBIT C
			      ---------

No organizational chart is attached because Bangor Hydro has no
relationship with any EWG or foreign utility company.


Bangor Hydro has caused this statement to be executed on its
behalf by its duly authorized officer this 25th day of February,
2000.
