EXHIBIT 23.2
                                                             ------------

                        INFORMATION REGARDING CONSENT
                           OF ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP

   The Registrant's consolidated financial statements and schedules as of
   December 31, 2001 and 2000 and for each of the two years in the
   period ended December 31, 2002 incorporated by reference in this
   Registration Statement have been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP,
   independent auditors, as stated in their reports with respect thereto.

   After such reasonable efforts, the Registrant has been unable to
   obtain Arthur Andersen LLP's written consent to the incorporation by
   reference of such financial statements.  Accordingly, the Registrant
   has omitted such consent in reliance upon Rule 437a under the
   Securities Act of 1933.

   Because Arthur Andersen LLP has not consented to the incorporation by
   reference of the financial statements, Plan participants may not be
   able to recover against Arthur Andersen LLP under Section 11 of the
   Securities Act of 1933 for any untrue statements of a material fact
   contained in such financial statements or any omissions to state a
   material fact required to be stated therein.

   Events arising out of the conviction of Arthur Andersen LLP of one
   count of obstruction of justice arising from the government's
   investigation of Enron Corporation, as well as the volume of civil
   lawsuits filed against it, have adversely affected the ability of
   Arthur Andersen to satisfy claims, if any, arising from its provision
   of auditing services to the Registrant, including claims that may
   arise out of Arthur Andersen's audit of the Registrant's consolidated
   financial statements, which are incorporated by reference in this
   Registration Statement.
