          Southern California Edison Company (Edison), a direct, wholly-owned
     subsidiary company of Edison International, is also a domestic public-
     utility company that is an associate company of EcoElectrica.  Edison has
     not made an investment in and does not have any contractual relationship
     with EcoElectrica; nor is any such investment or contractual relationship
     contemplated.
     EXHIBIT A
          DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
          The Oregon Public Utility Commission (OPUC) is the sole State
     commission with jurisdiction over the retail rates of PGE.  A certificate
     issued by the OPUC in accordance with section 33(a)(2) of the Act was filed
     by Enron with the Commission on July 18, 1997, as an attachment to a Form
     U-57 on behalf of Companhia Estadual de Gas do Rio de Janeiro and Riogas
     S.A.
          The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is the sole State
     commission with jurisdiction over the retail rates of Edison.  Section
     33(a)(2) of the Act provides that an exemption under section 33(a)(1) shall
     not apply or be effective unless every State commission having jurisdiction
     over the retail electric or gas rates of a public utility company that is
     an associate company or an affiliate company of a company otherwise
     exempted under section 33(a)(1) "has certified to the Commission that it
     has the authority and resources to protect ratepayers subject to its juris-
     diction and that it intends to exercise its authority."  However, this
     requirement is deemed satisfied if the State commission had, prior to the
     date of enactment of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (October 24, 1992) "on
     the basis of prescribed conditions of general applicability, determined
     that ratepayers of a public utility company are adequately insulated from
     the effects of diversification and the diversification would not impair the
     ability of the State commission to regulate effectively the operations of
     such company."  As contemplated by this provision, the CPUC in authorizing
     the creation of Edison International (formerly SCEcorp) in 1988 considered
     the effect of diversification on Edison.  The CPUC imposed various
     conditions of general applicability on the operations of the holding
     company system and, based on those conditions, determined that the rate-
     payers of Edison are adequately insulated from the effects of diversifica-
     tion, and that diversification would not impair the CPUC's ability to
     regulate effectively Edison's operations.
          In approving the formation of the Edison International holding company
     system, the CPUC imposed 15 conditions of general applicability on Edison
     and the holding company.  Southern California Edison Company, 90 PUR4th 45
     (Cal. PUC 1988).  In formulating these conditions, the CPUC recognized the
     primary importance of insulating Edison's ratepayers from the effect of
     diversification:  "The one thing we must make sure of is that the activi-
     ties of the holding company and its nonutility enterprises do not adversely
     affect the ratepayers of the utility."  Id. at 63.  The CPUC concluded that
     the conditions it adopted with regard to financial controls and reporting
     were "adequate to support our regulatory function" of so insulating
     Edison's ratepayers.  Id.  Accordingly, the CPUC adopted the conclusion of
     its Division of Ratepayer Advocates that the general conditions imposed
     upon the holding company would "[e]nsure that Edison ratepayers are
     insulated from all effects of nonutility activities."  Id. at 69.
          Additionally, the CPUC found that "given the conditions we will re-
     quire, there should be no diminution of the Commission's ability to
     regulate Edison effectively or Edison's ability to provide reliable utility
     service at reasonable rates."  Id. at 57.  "The proposed reorganization is
     designed to result in a corporate structure which enhances management's
     ability to take advantage of nonutility business opportunities should they
     arise while not diminishing the Commission's ability to effectively
     regulate utility operations."  Id. at 68.
          Accordingly, EcoElectrica meets the criteria set forth in section
     33(a) for qualification as a "foreign utility company."
          The undersigned company has duly caused this statement to be signed on
     its behalf by the undersigned officer thereunto duly authorized.
