          shall be filed, if applicable.

     2.   The requirement to provide specific information by means of this
          form supersedes any requirement by order of the Commission to
          provide identical information by means of periodic certificates
          under rule 24; but does not so supersede and replace any
          requirement by order to provide information by means of an annual
          report on Form U-13-60.

     3.   Information with respect to reporting companies that is required by

     4.   Notwithstanding the specific requirements of this form, this
          Commission may informally request such further information as, in
          its opinion, may be necessary or appropriate.

B.   Statements of Monetary Amounts and Deficits

     1.   Amounts included in this form and in related financial statements
          may be expressed in whole dollars, thousands of dollars or hundred
          thousands of dollars.

     2.   Deficits and other similar entries shall be indicated by either
          brackets or parentheses.  An explanation should be provided by
          footnote.

C.   Formal Requirements

     This form, including exhibits, shall be filed with Commission
     electronically pursuant to Regulation S-T (17 CFR 232.10 et seq.).  A
     conformed copy of each such report shall be filed with each state
     commission having jurisdiction over the retail rates of a public utility
     company that is an associate company of a reporting company.  Each
     report shall provide the name and telephone number of the person to whom
     inquiries concerning this report should be directed.

D.   Definitions

     As used in this form, the word "reporting company" means an energy-
     related company or gas-related company, as defined in rule 58(b).  All
     other words and terms have the same meaning as in the Public Utility

14. Presentation

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

15. New Accounting Standards

Derivative Accounting: Effective January 1, 2001, NU adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended.  In April 2003, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment
of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which
amends SFAS No. 133.  This new statement incorporates interpretations that
were included in previous Derivative Implementation Group (DIG) guidance,
clarifies certain conditions, and amends other existing pronouncements.  It
is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003.  The
new rules indicate that derivative contracts that are subject to unplanned
netting and can be settled for cash versus delivery would no longer qualify
for the normal purchases and sales exception, which would require fair value
accounting. Management has determined that the adoption of SFAS No. 149 did
not change Select Energy's and SENY's accounting for wholesale and retail
marketing contracts that were entered into prior to July 1, 2003, or the
ability of Select Energy or SENY to elect the normal purchases and sales
exception.

Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 03-11, "Reporting Gains and
Losses on Derivative Instruments That Are Subject to FASB Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and 'Not Held
for Trading Purposes' as Defined in EITF Issue No. 02-3, 'Issues related to
Accounting for Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management
Activities'" was derived from EITF Issue No. 02-3, which requires net
reporting in the income statement in revenues of energy trading activities.
Issue No. 03-11 addresses income statement classification of derivatives that
are not related to energy trading activities. Prior to Issue No. 03-11, there
was no specific accounting guidance that addressed the classification in the
income statement of Select Energy's and SENY's retail marketing and wholesale
contracts, many of which are derivatives.  The only applicable guidance was
EITF Issue No. 99-19, "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as
an Agent."  The indicators of gross revenue reporting include whether the
entity is the primary obligor in the arrangement, whether the entity has
inventory or credit risk, latitude in establishing price, and discretion in
supplier selection.  Indicators of net revenue reporting are whether the
supplier is the primary obligor in the arrangement, the entity earns a fixed
amount and the supplier has credit risk.

On July 31, 2003, the EITF reached a consensus in Issue No. 03-11 that
determining whether realized gains and losses on contracts that physically
deliver and are not held for trading purposes should be reported on a net or
gross basis is a matter of judgment that depends on the relevant facts and
circumstances.  The EITF indicated that the indicators set forth in Issue No.
99-19 should continue to be considered and provided no new accounting
guidance.  Additionally, the consensus recommends disclosure of where the
gains and losses are recorded in the income statement, and whether they are
presented on a net or gross basis.  Issue No. 03-11 is effective for Select
Energy and SENY prospectively on October 1, 2003.

Select Energy currently reports the settlement of short-term contracts and
Select Energy and SENY currently report the long-term derivative contracts
that are not held for trading purposes on a gross basis, generally with sales
in revenues and purchases in expenses.  Short-term sales and purchases
represent power that is purchased to serve full requirements contracts but is
ultimately not needed based on the actual load of the full requirements
customers.  This excess power is sold to the independent system operator or
to other counterparties.  Management is currently evaluating the impact of
the consensus in Issue No. 03- 11 as it relates to income statement
classification of Select Energy's short-term energy purchases and sales.
Management will complete this evaluation in the fourth quarter in accordance
with Issue No. 03-11.  If management determines that revenues and expenses
related to short-term sales and purchases should be reported net, then there
could be a significant reduction in both Select Energy's revenues and
expenses with no operating income or net income impact. For the first nine
months of 2003, short-term and non-requirements sales amounted to
approximately $600 million.

On June 25, 2003, the DIG cleared Issue No. C-20, which addressed the meaning
of "not clearly and closely related regarding contracts with a price
adjustment feature" as it relates to the election of the normal purchase and
sales exception to derivative accounting.  The implementation of this
guidance is required for the fourth quarter of 2003 for Select Energy and
SENY.  Management is currently evaluating the impacts of Issue No. C-20, but
believes that when it is implemented, Issue No. C-20 will not have a
significant impact on Select Energy and SENY.

16. Derivative Instruments, Market Risk and Risk Management

A. Derivative Instruments

Effective January 1, 2001, NU adopted SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No.
149 in April 2003. Derivatives that are utilized for trading purposes are
recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in net income.
Other contracts that are derivatives but do not meet the definition of a cash
flow hedge and cannot be designated as being used for normal purchases or
normal sales are also recorded at fair value with changes in fair value
included in net income.  For those contracts that meet the definition of a
derivative and meet the cash flow hedge requirements, the changes in the fair
value of the effective portion of those contracts are generally recognized in
accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of equity, until the
underlying transactions occur.  For those contracts that meet the definition
of a derivative and meet the fair value hedge requirements, the changes in
fair value of the effective portion of those contracts are generally
recognized on the balance sheet as both the hedge and the hedged item are
recorded at fair value. For contracts that meet the definition of a
derivative but do not meet the hedging requirements, and for the ineffective
portion of contracts that meet the cash flow hedge requirements, the changes
in fair value of those contracts are recognized currently in net income.
Derivative contracts that are entered into as a normal purchase or sale, will
result in physical delivery, meet the definitions in SFAS No. 149, and are
documented as such, are recorded under accrual accounting.

For information regarding recent accounting changes related to trading
activities, see Note 15, "New Accounting Standards," to the financial
statements.

The tables below summarize Select Energy's and SENY's derivative assets and
liabilities at September 30, 2003.  These amounts do not include premiums
paid, which amounted to $18.6 million at September 30, 2003 ($12.8 million
for Select Energy and $5.8 million for SENY).  These amounts also do not
include premiums received by Select Energy, which amounted to $15.8 million
at September 30, 2003.  The premium amounts relate primarily to energy
trading activities.

Trading:  To gather market intelligence and utilize this information in risk
management activities for the wholesale business, Select Energy conducts
limited energy trading activities in electricity, natural gas and oil, and
therefore, experiences net open positions.  Select Energy and SENY manage
these open positions with strict policies that limit their exposure to market
risk and require daily reporting to management of potential financial
exposures.  Derivatives used in trading activities are recorded at fair value
and included in the balance sheets as derivative assets or liabilities.
Changes in fair value are recognized in operating revenues in the statements
of income in the period of change.  The net fair value positions of the
trading portfolio at September 30, 2003 were assets of $30.6 million for
Select Energy and $5.6 million for SENY.  These amounts include intercompany
assets and liabilities of $0.4 million.

Select Energy's and SENY's trading portfolio includes New York Mercantile
Exchange (NYMEX) futures and options, the fair value of which is based on
closing exchange prices; over-the-counter forwards and options, the fair
value of which is based on the mid-point of bid and ask market prices;
bilateral contracts for the purchase or sale of electricity or natural gas,
the fair value of which is determined using available information from
external sources; and a long-term bilateral energy purchase contract, the
fair value of which is determined using a model. The trading portfolio also
includes a LIBOR-based interest rate swap to mitigate fair value fluctuations
from changes in the LIBOR-based discount rate used to determine the fair
value of certain trading contracts.  SENY's trading portfolio also includes
transmission congestion contracts.  The fair value of certain transmission
congestion contracts is based on published market data.  Market information
for other transmission congestion contracts is not available, and those
contracts cannot be reliably valued.  Management believes the amounts paid for
these contracts, which total $4.6 million, are equal to their fair value.

Nontrading:  Nontrading derivative contracts are used for delivery of energy
related to Select Energy's and SENY's retail and wholesale activities. These
contracts are not entered into for trading purposes, but are subject to fair
value accounting because these contracts are derivatives that cannot be
designated as normal purchases or sales, as defined.  These contracts cannot
be designated as normal purchases or sales either because they are included
in the New York energy market that settles financially or because the normal
purchase and sale designation was not elected by management.  The net fair
values of nontrading derivatives valued at the mid-point of bid and ask
market prices at September 30, 2003 were assets of $1.0 million for Select
Energy and $1.2 million for SENY.

Hedging:  Select Energy and SENY utilize derivative financial and commodity
instruments, including futures and forward contracts, to reduce market risk
associated with fluctuations in the price of electricity and natural gas
purchased to meet firm sales commitments to certain customers.  Select Energy
and SENY also utilize derivatives, including price swap agreements, call and
put option contracts, and futures and forward contracts, to manage the market
risk associated with a portion of its anticipated retail supply requirements.
These derivatives have been designated as cash flow hedging instruments and
are used to reduce the market risk associated with fluctuations in the price
of electricity, natural gas, or oil.  A derivative that hedges exposure to the
variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction (a cash flow hedge) is
initially recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in
accumulated other comprehensive income.  Hedges impact net income when the
forecasted transaction being hedged occurs, when hedge ineffectiveness is
measured and recorded, when the forecasted transaction being hedged is no
longer probable of occurring, or when there is accumulated other
comprehensive loss and the hedge and the forecasted transaction being hedged
are in a loss position on a combined basis.

Select Energy and SENY maintain natural gas service agreements with certain
customers to supply gas at fixed prices for terms extending through 2005.
Select Energy and SENY have hedged its gas supply component of the risk under
these agreements through NYMEX futures contracts.  Under these contracts,
which also extend through 2005, the purchase price of a specified quantity of
gas is effectively fixed over the term of the gas service agreements.  At
September 30, 2003, the NYMEX futures contracts had notional values of $81.9
million and were recorded at fair value as a derivative liability of $1.7
million.

Other derivative liabilities, which are valued at the mid-point of bid and
ask market prices, include forwards, options and swaps to hedge Select
Energy's basic generation service contracts in the PJM region and were
recorded at fair value as derivative liabilities of $5 million.  Other
derivative liabilities include futures, options and swaps in the New England
region, which were recorded as derivative liabilities with a fair value of
$4.2 million at September 30, 2003.

SENY maintains hedges on its retail sales portfolio through 2004, which were
also valued at the mid-point of bid and ask market prices and recorded at
fair value as a derivative asset of $4.1 million at September 30, 2003.

B. Market Risk Information

Select Energy utilizes the sensitivity analysis methodology to disclose
quantitative information for its commodity price risks. Sensitivity analysis
provides a presentation of the potential loss of future net income, fair
values or cash flows from market risk- sensitive instruments over a selected
time period due to one or more hypothetical changes in commodity prices, or
other similar price changes.  Under sensitivity analysis, the fair value of
the portfolio is a function of the underlying commodity, contract prices and
market prices represented by each derivative commodity contract.  For swaps,
forward contracts and options, fair value reflects management's best
estimates considering over-the-counter quotations, time value and volatility
factors of the underlying commitments.  Exchange-traded futures and options
are recorded at fair value based on closing exchange prices.

Trading Portfolio:  At September 30, 2003, Select Energy calculated the
market price resulting from a 10 percent change in forward market prices.
That 10 percent change would result in approximately a $0.3 million increase
or decrease in the fair value of the Select Energy trading portfolio. In the
normal course of business, Select Energy also faces risks that are either
nonfinancial or nonquantifiable.  Such risks principally include credit risk,
which is not reflected in this sensitivity analysis.

Retail Marketing and Wholesale Portfolio:  When conducting sensitivity
analyses of the change in the fair value of Select Energy's electricity,
natural gas and oil nontrading derivatives portfolio, which would result from
a hypothetical change in the future market price of electricity, natural gas
and oil, the fair values of the contracts are determined from models that
take into account estimated future market prices of electricity, natural gas
and oil, the volatility of the market prices in each period, as well as the
time value factors of the underlying commitments.  In most instances, market
prices and volatility are determined from quotes on the futures exchange.

Select Energy has determined a hypothetical change in the fair value for its
retail marketing and wholesale portfolio, which includes cash flow hedges and
electricity, natural gas and oil contracts and generation assets, assuming a
10 percent change in forward market prices.  At September 30, 2003, a 10
percent change in market price would have resulted in an increase or decrease
in fair value of approximately $3.5 million.

The impact of a change in electricity, natural gas and oil prices on Select
Energy's retail marketing and wholesale portfolio at September 30, 2003, is
not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the
commodities provided for in these contracts are physically delivered.

C. Other Risk Management Activities

Credit Risk Management:  Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that NU would
incur as a result of non-performance by counterparties pursuant to the terms
of their contractual obligations.  NU serves a wide variety of customers and
suppliers that include independent power producers, industrial companies, gas
and electric utilities, oil and gas producers, financial institutions, and
other energy marketers.  Margin accounts exist within this diverse group, and
NU realizes interest receipts and payments related to balances outstanding in
these margin accounts.  This wide customer and supplier mix generates a need
for a variety of contractual structures, products and terms which, in turn,
requires NU Enterprises to manage the portfolio of market risk inherent in
those transactions in a manner consistent with the parameters established by
NU's risk management process.

Credit risks and market risks at NU Enterprises are monitored regularly by a
Risk Oversight Council operating outside of the business units that create or
actively manage these risk exposures to ensure compliance with NU's stated
risk management policies.

NU tracks and re-balances the risk in its portfolio in accordance with fair
value and other risk management methodologies that utilize forward price
curves in the energy markets to estimate the size and probability of future
potential exposure.

NYMEX traded futures and option contracts are guaranteed by the NYMEX and
have a lower credit risk.  Select Energy and SENY have established written
credit policies with regard to its counterparties to minimize overall credit
risk on all types of transactions.  These policies require an evaluation of
potential counterparties' financial conditions (including credit ratings),
collateral requirements under certain circumstances (including cash in
advance, letters of credit, and parent guarantees), and the use of
standardized agreements, which allow for the netting of positive and negative
exposures associated with a single counterparty.  This evaluation results in
establishing credit limits prior to Select Energy and SENY entering into
trading activities.  The appropriateness of these limits is subject to
continuing review.  Concentrations among these counterparties may impact NU's
overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, in that the
counterparties may be similarly affected by changes to economic, regulatory
or other conditions.

At September 30, 2003, Select Energy and SENY maintained collateral balances
from counterparties of $29.2 million.  This amount does not include $16
million of special deposits held by outside counterparties.  This amount is
included in both special deposits and other current liabilities on the
accompanying balance sheets.

17. Special Deposits

Special deposits primarily consist of collateral balances resulting from
Select Energy and SENY wholesale activities.
