Aurora, I do not think we have estimated the costs for 2000 because what we
will have to do as far as containment of PCBs this year is the subject of
some dispute. I will get you a breakdown of 1999 costs as soon as possible.

Subject: PCB costs incurred (Notes to Browncover Section 7

Susan:

AA auditor reviewed our footnotes to our browncover for TW (Section 7 -
Litigation and Contingencies) and was asking for some information regarding
the following paragraph:

Transwestern incurred and continues to incur certain costs related to
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that migrated into one of its customer's
facilities through use of a PCB-based lubricant. Because of the continued
detection of PCBs near Transwestern's Topock station, Transwestern continues
to take measures to contain the PCB at an estimated cost of $2.3 million in
1998 and an estimated $5.4 million in 1999.

Here are the AA's questions:

1) Can you please provide the actual cost for 1999 and the estimated cost for
2000

2) Also, if you have a copy of where these costs are coming from so AA can
tie their figures

Can you please provide this information today as AA wants to wrap up the
notes. Please call me if you have any questions. Thanks again for your help.
