ITEM 1. Business
- - -------
General
-------
Illinois Power Company (IP) was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Illinois on May 25, 1923.
Illinova Corporation (Illinova) was incorporated under the
laws of the State of Illinois on May 27, 1994 and currently
serves as the parent holding company of three principal operating
subsidiaries: IP, Illinova Generating Company (IGC) and Illinova
Power Marketing, Inc. (IPMI).
IP is the primary business and principal subsidiary of
Illinova and is engaged in the generation, transmission,
distribution and sale of electric energy and the distribution,
transportation and sale of natural gas in the State of Illinois.
Several developments have occurred recently at IP that are
related to the increasingly competitive nature of the utility
industry and IP's efforts to position itself to benefit from the
opportunities emerging on the horizon. In 1995, IP was a
participant in the development of Energy Choice 2000, a
legislative proposal designed to reform utility regulation in
Illinois. Furthermore, IP designed and proposed an open energy
access experiment which would allow approximately 20 industrial
customers to purchase electricity and related services from other
sources. IP plans to use this experiment to evaluate the
financial, operational and service impacts of transporting power
from other suppliers to customers. For a more detailed
discussion of these developments, refer to the "Competition"
section of this item.
In December 1994, IP announced plans for voluntary enhanced
retirement and severance programs. During the fourth quarter of
1995, 727 employees elected to accept either enhanced retirement
or enhanced severance. These two programs resulted in a pre-tax
charge of $38 million against fourth quarter 1995 earnings but
are expected to generate savings of approximately $36 million
annually beginning in 1996.
IP provides funds to Illinova for operations and
investments. Illinova accrues interest due to IP on these funds
at a rate equal to the higher of the rate that Illinova would
have to pay if it used a currently outstanding line of credit, or
IP's actual cost of the funds provided. At the end of each
quarter, IP effects a common stock repurchase from Illinova by
accepting shares equal in market value to the amount of the funds
provided to Illinova during the quarter plus the accrued interest
for the quarter. During 1995, IP provided approximately $34
million in funds to Illinova. Since Illinova's inception in
1994, IP has provided approximately $54 million to Illinova. For
further information on IP common stock repurchases, see Item 7
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operation" of this report.
IP's financial position and results of operations are
currently the principal factors affecting Illinova's consolidated
financial position and results of operations.
IGC is Illinova's wholly-owned independent power subsidiary
that invests in energy-related projects throughout the world and
competes in the independent power market. IGC is an equity
partner with Tenaska, Inc. in four natural gas-fired generation
plants. Tenaska, Inc. is a developer of independent power
projects and is based in Omaha, Nebraska. IGC also owns 50
percent of the North American Energy Services Company (NAES),
which supplies a broad range of operations, maintenance and
support services to the world-wide independent power generation
industry. NAES will operate the Tenaska generation plants in
which IGC has an equity position. IGC is an equity partner in
the Indeck North American Power Fund (Fund). The Fund has
generation projects in Long Beach, California, and Pepperell,
Massachusetts. In addition to these ventures, IGC is involved in
generation projects in Teesside, England; Puerto Cortez,
Honduras; Zhejiang Province, People's Republic of China;
Aguaytia, Peru; and Old Harbour, Jamaica. IGC also has invested
in a coal-drying facility in Gillette, Wyoming.
IPMI is Illinova's wholly-owned subsidiary that is in the
business of marketing energy and energy-related services. On May
16, 1995, IPMI obtained approval from the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) to conduct business as a marketer of
electric power and gas to various customers outside of IP's
present service territory. In September 1995, IPMI began buying
and selling wholesale electricity in the western United States.
IPMI owns 50 percent of Tenaska Marketing Ventures (TMV). IPMI
and TMV have formed Tenaska Marketing Canada to market natural
gas in Canada.
On December 13, 1995, the Illinova Board of Directors
approved the formation of a captive insurance subsidiary of
Illinova. The purpose of the insurance subsidiary will be to
provide insurance coverage to IP that is not available in the
commercial market, to provide greater financial flexibility for
Illinova and to reduce IP's risk management costs. It is
anticipated that the insurance subsidiary will be created in mid-
1996.
Competition
- - -----------
Competition has become a dominant issue for the electric
utility industry. It has been promoted by federal legislation,
starting with the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978,
which facilitated the development of co-generators and
independent power producers. Federal promotion of competition
continued with enactment of the Energy Policy Act of 1992, which
authorized the FERC to mandate wholesale wheeling of electricity
by utilities at the request of certain authorized generating
entities and electric service providers. Wheeling is the
transport of electricity generated by one entity over
transmission and distribution lines belonging to another entity.
For many years prior to enactment of the Energy Policy Act, the
FERC imposed wholesale wheeling obligations as a condition of
approving mergers and granting operating privileges, which is a
practice that continues.
Competition arises not only from co-generation or
independent power production, but also from municipalities
seeking to extend their service boundaries to include customers
being served by IP. The right of municipalities to have power
wheeled to them by utilities was established in 1973. IP has
been obligated to wheel power for municipalities and cooperatives
in its territory since 1976. The Illinois Commerce Commission
(ICC) has been supportive of IP's attempts to maintain its
customer base through approval of special contracts and flexible
pricing that help IP to compete with existing municipal
providers.
Further competition may be introduced by state action or by
federal regulatory action. While the Energy Policy Act precludes
the FERC from mandating retail wheeling, state regulators and
legislators could open utility franchise territories to full
competition at the retail level. Legislative action would be
required for retail wheeling to occur in Illinois. Retail
wheeling involves the transport of electricity to end-use
residential, commercial or industrial customers. Such a change
would be a significant departure from existing regulation in
which public utilities have a universal obligation to serve the
public in return for relatively protected service territories and
regulated pricing which is designed to allow a reasonable return
on prudent investment and recovery of operating costs. States'
attempts to lay the groundwork for retail wheeling have been
hampered by opposition from various interest groups, as well as
the complexity of related issues, including recovery of costs
associated with existing generation investment.
In March 1995, IP was instrumental in developing a
legislative proposal, Energy Choice 2000, which is designed to
reform Illinois' regulatory laws governing utilities. Energy
Choice 2000 establishes the framework for a managed transition
for utilities to operate in a competitive market. The proposal
outlines a time frame for all classes of customers to benefit
from competition, beginning in the year 2000. In May 1995, the
Illinois General Assembly passed Senate Joint Resolution 21,
which established the Joint Committee on Electric Utility
Regulatory Reform and directed it to use Energy Choice 2000 "as a
key element for developing legislative proposals for reducing
regulation, increasing customer choice and promoting and
facilitating competition in Illinois' electric utility industry."
The Joint Committee on Electric Utility Regulatory Reform is
directed to provide a final legislative proposal during the
fourth quarter of 1996.
On September 11, 1995, IP filed a proposal with the ICC
seeking approval to conduct an open-energy access experiment
beginning in 1996. The experiment would allow approximately 20
industrial customers to purchase electricity and related services
from other sources. IP would transmit (wheel) the electricity
over its lines. IP received approval for the experiment from the
ICC on March 13, 1996. IP expects to receive approval from the
FERC by April 15, 1996.
The maximum total load involved in this experiment
represents approximately 1 percent of IP's total load, or about
$7.5 million in net annual revenue. IP expects the earnings
impact to be immaterial. Any loss of sales would be partially
offset by revenues obtained by selling the surplus energy and
capacity on the open market and by transmission and ancillary
service charges necessary for customers to obtain energy from an
alternative supplier, as well as by corresponding reductions in
fuel and other variable operating costs.
The open-access experiment will allow IP to evaluate the
financial, operational and service impacts of transporting power
from other suppliers to customers. Additionally, regulators and
legislators will benefit from the experiment by observing open-
energy access in a "laboratory setting" while they look for ways
to bring the benefits of competition to all customers. Finally,
it will give customers opportunity to gain experience in
arranging their power supplies and transmission requirements and
managing their operations under an open-energy access scenario.
At this time, the ultimate effect of competition in the
electric utility industry on Illinova's consolidated financial
position and results of operations is uncertain.
Customer and Revenue Data
- - -------------------------
Approximately 83 percent and 17 percent of Illinova's and
its subsidiaries' operating revenues are derived from the sale of
electricity and the sale and transportation of natural gas,
respectively. The territory served by IP comprises substantial
areas in northern, central and southern Illinois, including ten
cities with populations greater than 30,000 (1990 Federal Census
data). IP supplies electric service at retail to an estimated
aggregate population of 1,265,000 in 310 incorporated
municipalities, adjacent suburban and rural areas, and numerous
unincorporated communities and retail natural gas service to an
estimated population of 920,000 in 257 incorporated
municipalities and adjacent areas. IP holds franchises in all of
the 310 incorporated municipalities in which it furnishes retail
electric service and in all of the 257 incorporated
municipalities in which it furnishes retail gas service. At
February 29, 1996, IP served 629,351 active electric customers
and 402,775 active gas customers. These numbers do not include
non-metered customers such as street lights. Sales of
electricity and gas sales and transportation are affected by
seasonal weather patterns, and, therefore, operating revenues and
associated operating expenses are not distributed evenly during
the year.

Shareholders of Illinova Corporation, and such reference will be
deemed to include a reference to the 1995 Annual Report of
Illinois Power Company.
Electric Business
-----------------
Overview
- - --------
IP supplies electric service at retail to residential,
commercial and industrial consumers in substantial portions of
northern, central and southern Illinois. Electric service at
wholesale is supplied for resale to one electric utility and to
the Illinois Municipal Electric Agency (IMEA) as agent for 11
municipalities. IP also has a power coordination agreement with
Soyland Power Cooperative, Inc. (Soyland). See the sub-caption
"Power Coordination Agreement With Soyland" hereunder for
additional information. In 1995, IP provided interchange power
to 21 entities, including 7 power marketers.
IP's highest system peak hourly demand (native load) in 1995
was 3,666,738 kilowatts on July 13, 1995. This 1995 peak load
set a new company record, surpassing IP's previous high of
3,508,000 kilowatts set in 1988.
IP owns and operates generating facilities with a total net
summer capability of 4,443,000 kilowatts. The generating
capability comes from six major steam generating plants and three
peaking service combustion turbine plants. See Item 2
"Properties" for further information.
IP owns 20% of the capital stock of Electric Energy, Inc.
(EEI), an Illinois corporation. EEI was organized to own and
operate a steam electric generating station and related
transmission facilities near Joppa, Illinois to supply electric
energy to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for its project
near Paducah, Kentucky. Under a power supply agreement with EEI,
IP has the right to purchase 5.0% of the annual output of the
Joppa facility. IP has the flexibility to schedule the capacity
in varying amounts ranging from a nominal 51,000 kilowatts for 52
weeks up to a maximum of 203,000 kilowatts for approximately 13
weeks. IP must schedule its annual capacity entitlement by
August 1 of the preceding year, and availability of the scheduled
capacity is subject to certain other limitations related to
scheduling considerations of the other co-owners of the Joppa
facility and the DOE, and any planned unit outages. The power
supply agreement is effective until December 31, 2005, unless
amended, changed, or canceled by mutual agreement of all parties.
IP is a participant, together with Union Electric Company
(UE) and Central Illinois Public Service Company (CIPS), in the
Illinois-Missouri Power Pool which was formed in 1952. The Pool
operates under an interconnection agreement which provides for
the interconnection of transmission lines. Additionally, the
agreement contains provisions for the coordination of generating
equipment maintenance schedules, inter-company sales of firm and
non-firm power, and the maintenance of minimum capacity reserves
by each participant. These capacity reserves are equal to the
greater of 15% of its peak demand, one-half of its largest unit,
or one-half of its largest non-firm purchase. This agreement has
no expiration date, but any party may withdraw from the agreement
by giving 36 months notice to the other parties.
IP, CIPS and UE have a contract with the Tennessee Valley
Authority (TVA) providing for the interconnection of the TVA
system with those of the three companies to exchange economy and
emergency power and for other working arrangements. This
contract has no expiration date, but any party may withdraw from
the agreement by giving 5 years written notice to the other
parties.
IP also has interconnections with Indiana-Michigan Power
Company, Commonwealth Edison Company, Central Illinois Light
Company, Mid-American Energy Corporation, Kentucky Utilities
Company, Southern Illinois Power Cooperative, EEI, Soyland and
the City of Springfield, Illinois.
IP is also a member of the Mid-America Interconnected
Network, which is one of nine regional reliability councils
established to coordinate plans and operations of member
companies regionally and nationally.
Power Coordination Agreement With Soyland
- - -----------------------------------------
Under the provisions of the 1984 Power Coordination
Agreement (PCA) between IP and Soyland, IP is required to provide
Soyland with 12.0% of the electrical capacity from its fossil-
fueled generating plants until the agreement expires or is
terminated. IP transmits energy for Soyland through IP's
transmission and subtransmission systems and is compensated by
Soyland with capacity charges and for energy and variable
operating costs. For more information on the PCA, see "Note 6 -
Facilities Agreements" on page A-23 of the 1995 Annual Report to
Shareholders in the appendix to the Illinova Proxy Statement
which is incorporated herein by reference.
Fuel Supply
- - -----------
Coal was used to generate 72.7% of the electricity produced
by IP during 1995, with nuclear and oil and gas contributing
26.8% and 0.5%, respectively. Based on current forecasts, the
percentages of generation attributable to coal, nuclear, oil and
gas in 1995 should remain essentially the same in future years.
The percentage attributable to nuclear is projected to increase
to around 31.0%, while the percentage attributable to coal should
decline to about 68.0%, during those years in which there is not
a scheduled refueling outage for the Clinton Power Station
(Clinton).
IP's rate schedules contain provisions for passing along to
its electric customers increases or decreases in the cost of
fuels used in its generating stations. For additional
information see the information under the sub-captions "Revenue
and Energy Cost" of "Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies" on page A-15 of the 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders
in the appendix to the Illinova Proxy Statement which is
incorporated herein by reference.
COAL - Coal is expected to be a major source of fuel for future
generation. Through both long-term and short-term contracts, IP
has obtained commitments for the major portion of future coal
requirements. IP has short-term contracts with four suppliers
which last through 1997 and long-term contracts with two
suppliers which last through 1999 and 2010. Contracts
renegotiated in 1993 and 1994 have provided for the continued
economic use of high sulfur Illinois coal while IP complies with
Phase I of the Clean Air Act Amendments that became effective
January 1, 1995.
Spot purchases of coal in 1995 represented less than 1% of
IP's total coal purchases. IP believes that it will be able to
obtain sufficient coal to meet its future generating
requirements. However, IP is unable to predict the extent to
which coal availability and price may fluctuate in the future.
Coal inventories on hand at December 31, 1995 represented a 27-
day supply based on IP's average daily burn projections for 1996.
IP continues to evaluate and obtain alternate fuel delivery
and unloading facilities for greater flexibility of fuel
supplies. New rail unloading facilities at the Havana Station
(Havana) are expected to be operational in 1996.
NUCLEAR - IP leases nuclear fuel from Illinois Power Fuel Company
(Fuel Company). The Fuel Company, which is 50% owned by IP, was
formed in 1981 for the purpose of leasing nuclear fuel to IP for
Clinton. Lease payments are equal to the Fuel Company's cost of
fuel as consumed (including related financing and administrative
costs). As of December 31, 1995, the Fuel Company had an invest
ment in nuclear fuel of approximately $95 million. IP is
obligated to make subordinated loans to the Fuel Company at any
time the obligations of the Fuel Company which are due and
payable exceed the funds available to the Fuel Company. At
December 31, 1995, IP had no outstanding loans to the Fuel
Company.
At December 31, 1995, IP's net investment in nuclear fuel
consisted of $10 million of Uranium 308. This inventory
represents fuel to be used in connection with the sixth reload of
Clinton which is scheduled to begin in October 1996 and expected
to last approximately six weeks. At December 31, 1995, the
unamortized investment of the nuclear fuel assemblies in the
reactor was $85 million.
IP has two long-term contracts for the supply of uranium
concentrates. One contract is with Cameco, a Canadian
corporation. The Cameco contract was renegotiated in 1994 to
lower the price and provide 55% to 65% of Clinton's estimated
fuel requirements through 2000. The decision to utilize Cameco
for the additional 10% of Clinton's fuel requirements is made the
year before each delivery and depends on the estimated price and
availability from the spot market versus the estimated contract
prices. The contract with Cameco is stated in terms of U. S.
Dollars.
The second uranium contract is with U.S. Energy/Crested
Corporation. Originally, it was for 1,179,240 pounds of uranium
concentrates with deliveries through 1998. IP purchased
approximately one half of the uranium concentrates supply under
this contract before it was terminated in September 1993.
In October 1993, IP filed suit in U.S. District Court,
Central District of Illinois, Danville, seeking a declaration
that IP's termination of the U.S. Energy contract was permitted
by the terms of the contract as they relate to rights of
termination in the event of certain receivership proceedings. On
September 1, 1994, the Court granted defendants' motions for
summary judgment and ruled that the termination constituted a
breach of contract. On June 15, 1995, IP concluded a negotiated
settlement with U.S. Energy/Crested Corporation. That settlement
reduced the quantity to be purchased and shortened the contract
term by one year, while increasing the price per pound.
Conversion services for the period 1991-2001 are contracted
with Sequoyah Fuels. Sequoyah Fuels closed its Oklahoma
conversion plant in 1992 and joined with Allied Chemical Company
to form a marketing company named CoverDyn. All conversion
services will be performed at Allied's Metropolis, Illinois
facility, but Sequoyah Fuels retains the contract with IP. IP
has a Utility Services contract for uranium enrichment require
ments with the DOE which provides 70% of the enrichment require
ments of Clinton through September 1999. The remaining 30% has
been contracted with the DOE through an amendment to its
incentive pricing plan through 1999. This amendment allows IP to
either purchase the enrichment services at the DOE's incentive
price or provide electricity at DOE's Paducah, Kentucky
enrichment plant at an agreed exchange rate. In addition,
legislation was passed to create a new private government
corporation, the United States Enrichment Corporation (USEC), for
enrichment services. All of the DOE's assets including all
contracts, were transferred to the USEC as of July 1993.
A contract with General Electric Company provides fuel
fabrication requirements for the initial core and approximately
11 reloads, or through 2004. In 1993, an amendment was signed
with the General Electric Company to add 67% more fuel bundles to
the contract and to change the existing price and other terms and
conditions. The additional fuel bundles are expected to cover
fuel fabrication requirements through 2017.
Beyond the stated commitments, IP may enter into additional
contracts for uranium concentrates, conversion to uranium
hexafluoride, enrichment and fabrication.
Currently, no plants for commercial reprocessing of spent
nuclear fuel are in operation in the U.S., and reprocessing
cannot begin until appropriate licenses are issued by the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC). Various governmental agencies are
currently reviewing the environmental impact of nuclear fuel
reprocessing and waste management. The Nuclear Waste Policy Act
of 1982 was enacted to establish a government policy with respect
to disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive
waste. On July 6, 1984, IP signed a contract with the DOE for
disposal of spent nuclear fuel and/or high-level radioactive
waste. Under the contract, IP is required to pay the DOE one
mill (one-tenth of a cent) per net kilowatt-hour (one dollar per
MWH) of electricity generated and sold. IP is recovering this
amount through rates charged to customers.
On June 20, 1994, IP and 13 other utilities filed an action
in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals asking the Court to rule
that the DOE is obligated to take responsibility for spent
nuclear fuel by January 31, 1998 under the Nuclear Waste Policy
Act of 1982. IP based its decision to build Clinton, in part, on
the assurance that a federal repository would be built and
operated by the DOE, and, under the Act, the DOE has been
collecting money from IP to pay for such a repository. The
utilities are asking the Court to confirm the DOE's commitment
and to order the DOE to develop a compliance program with
appropriate deadlines. The utilities also have asked for relief
from the ongoing funding requirements or to have an escrow
account established for future funds paid to DOE. Oral arguments
in this case were held in January 1996. A decision from the
Court is expected sometime in 1996.
IP has on-site storage capacity that will accommodate its
spent fuel storage needs until the year 2004, based on current
operating levels. If by that date the U.S. Government has not
complied with to its statutory obligation to dispose of spent
fuel, and IP has continued to operate the plant at current
levels, IP will have to use alternative means of disposal, such
as dry storage in casks on site or transportation of the fuel
rods to private or collectively-owned utility repositories. IP
currently is an equity partner in an effort to develop a private
storage facility in conjunction with the Mescalaro Apaches on
their reservation in New Mexico. Continued participation in the
partnership will depend on the technological and economic
viability of the project. Current technology allows safe, dry,
on-site storage, subject to licensing and local permitting
requirements.
Under the Energy Policy Act of 1992, IP is responsible for a
portion of the cost to decontaminate and decommission the DOE's
uranium enrichment facilities. Each utility will be assessed an
annual fee for a period of fifteen years based on quantities
purchased from the DOE facilities prior to passage of the Act.
At December 31, 1995, IP has a remaining liability of $5.1
million representing future assessments. IP is recovering these
costs, as amortized, through its fuel adjustment clause.
OIL and GAS - IP used natural gas and oil to generate 0.5% of the
electricity produced in 1995. IP has not experienced difficulty
in obtaining adequate supplies of these resources. However, IP
is unable to predict the extent to which oil and gas availability
and price may fluctuate in the future.
Reference is made to the sub-caption "Environmental Matters"
hereunder for information regarding pollution control matters
relating to IP's fuel supply.
Construction Program
- - --------------------
Illinova and IP need cash for construction programs. To
meet anticipated needs, Illinova and IP have used internally
generated funds and external financings. The timing and amount
of external financings depend primarily on economic and financial
market conditions, cash needs and capitalization ratio
objectives.
For more information on Illinova's construction program and
liquidity, see "Note 4 - Commitments and Contingencies" on page A-
18 of the 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders in the appendix to
the Illinova Proxy Statement which is incorporated herein by

Clinton Power Station
- - ---------------------
General
-------
IP and Soyland share ownership of Clinton, with IP owning
86.8% and Soyland owning 13.2%. Clinton was placed in service in
1987 and represents approximately 18% of IP's installed
generation capacity. For more information on the Clinton Power
Station, see "Note 3 - Clinton Power Station" on page A-17 of the
1995 Annual Report to Shareholders in the appendix to the
Illinova Proxy Statement which is incorporated herein by
reference.
Decommissioning Costs
---------------------
IP is responsible for its ownership share of the costs of
decommissioning Clinton and for spent nuclear fuel disposal
costs. IP is collecting future decommissioning costs through its
electric rates based on an ICC-approved formula that allows IP to
adjust rates annually for changes in decommissioning cost
estimates. For more information on the decommissioning costs
related to the Clinton Power Station, see "Note 4 - Commitments
and Contingencies" on page A-18 of the 1995 Annual Report to
Shareholders in the appendix to the Illinova Proxy Statement
which is incorporated herein by reference.
Accounting Matters
- - ------------------
The Illinova consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Illinova Corporation, a holding company; IP, a
combination electric and gas utility; IGC, a wholly-owned
subsidiary that invests in energy-related projects and competes
in the independent power market; and IPMI, a wholly-owned
subsidiary that markets energy and energy-related services.
IP's consolidated financial position and results of
operations are currently the principal factors affecting
Illinova's consolidated financial position and results of
operations. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial
statements. All non-utility operating transactions are included
in the section titled Other Income and Deductions, "Miscellaneous-
net" in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Prior year
amounts have been restated on a basis consistent with the
December 31, 1995, presentation.
The IP consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Illinois Power Capital, L.P., a limited partnership
in which IP serves as the general partner.
IP currently prepares its financial statements in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 71,
"Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation" (FAS
71). Accordingly, IP records various regulatory assets and
liabilities to reflect the actions of regulators. Management
believes that IP currently meets the criteria for continued
application of FAS 71 but will continue to evaluate significant
changes in the regulatory and competitive environment to assess
IP's overall compliance with such criteria. These criteria
include: 1) whether rates set by regulators are designed to
recover the specific costs of providing regulated services and
products to customers and 2) whether regulators continue to
establish rates based on cost. In the event that management
determines that IP no longer meets the criteria for application
of FAS 71, an extraordinary non-cash charge to income would be
recorded in order to remove the effects of the actions of
regulators from the consolidated financial statements. The
discontinuation of application of FAS 71 would likely have a
material adverse effect on Illinova's and IP's consolidated
financial position and results of operations.
Dividends
- - ---------
On December 13, 1995, Illinova increased the quarterly
common stock dividend 12%, to $.28 per share from $.25 per share,
effective with the common stock dividend for the first quarter of
1996.
Gas Business
------------
IP supplies retail natural gas service to an estimated
aggregate population of 920,000 in 257 incorporated municipalities,
adjacent suburban areas and numerous unincorporated
communities. IP does not sell gas for resale.
IP's rate schedules contain provisions for passing through
to its gas customers increases or decreases in the cost of
purchased gas. For information on revenue and energy costs, see
the sub-caption "Revenue and Energy Cost" of "Note 1 - Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies" on page A-15 of the 1995 Annual
Report to Shareholders in the appendix to the Illinova Proxy
Statement that is incorporated herein by reference.
IP has eight underground gas storage fields having a total
capacity of approximately 15.2 million MMBtu and a total
deliverability on a peak day of about 347,000 MMBtu. In addition
to the capacity of the eight underground storage fields, IP has
contracts with various natural gas suppliers and producers for
11.0 million MMBtu of underground storage capacity and a total
deliverability on a peak day of 160,000 MMBtu. Operation of un
derground storage permits IP to increase deliverability to its
customers during peak load periods by taking gas into storage
during the off-peak months.
IP owns two active liquefied petroleum gas plants having an
aggregate peak-day deliverability of about 40,000 MMBtu for peak-
shaving purposes. Gas properties include approximately 7,800
miles of mains.
IP experienced its 1995 peak-day send out of 666,200 MMBtu
of natural gas on December 9, 1995. This compares with IP's
record peak-day send out of 857,324 MMBtu of natural gas on
January 10, 1982.
Gas Supply
- - ----------
Pursuant to Orders 636 and 636-A, issued in April and August
1992, respectively, the FERC approved amendments to rules
intended to increase competition among natural gas suppliers by
"unbundling" the interstate pipelines' merchant sales service
into separate sales and transportation services and by mandating
that the pipelines' firm transportation service be comparable to
the transportation service included in their traditional bundled
sales service. Under this rule, pipelines are required to
unbundle services that they provided so that natural gas
purchasers can select services as needed to meet their energy
requirements. As of December 31, 1993, all of IP's pipeline
suppliers had restructured their service offerings to conform
with the requirements of Orders 636 and 636-A.
These rules have increased the complexity of providing firm
gas service. This additional complexity results from the greater
number of options available to IP, as well as the added
responsibility to arrange for the acquisition, transportation and
storage of natural gas, which was previously bundled into the
pipelines' sales service. As a result of Orders 636 and 636-A,
the pipelines are charging their customers "transition" costs,
which arise from unbundling services. IP estimates that it will
incur approximately $10.5 million in transition costs through
1998. In 1993, IP began to pay transition costs billed by gas
pipelines and to recover these payments through a tariff rider.
On September 23, 1994, the ICC issued a final order approving
recovery of Order 636 transition costs.
Under Order 636, IP has entered into firm transportation
agreements with the pipelines that feed its system. IP has
contracts with five suppliers through 1996. IP's present
estimated supplies of gas from pipelines and its own storage are
sufficient to serve all of its existing firm loads. When gas
service to interruptible customers is interrupted, storage
service is made available in lieu of curtailment. Gas service
continues to be available to all applicants on a current basis.
Environmental Matters
---------------------
IP is subject to regulation by certain federal and Illinois
authorities with respect to environmental matters and may in the
future become subject to additional regulation by such
authorities or by other federal, state and local governmental
bodies. Existing regulations affecting IP are principally
related to air and water quality, hazardous wastes and toxic
substances.
Air Quality
- - -----------
Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (Act), the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has established
ambient air quality standards for air pollutants which, in its
judgment, have an adverse effect on public health or welfare.
The Act requires each state to adopt laws and regulations,
subject to USEPA approval, designed to achieve such standards.
Pursuant to the Illinois Environmental Protection Act, the
Illinois Pollution Control Board (Board) adopted and, along with
the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), is enforcing
a comprehensive set of air pollution control regulations which
include emission limitations and permitting and monitoring and
reporting requirements.
The air pollution regulations of the Board impose
limitations on emissions of particulate, sulfur dioxide, carbon
monoxide, nitrogen oxides and various other pollutants.
Enforcement of emission limitations is accomplished in part
through the regulatory permitting process. IP's practice is to
obtain an operating permit for each source of regulated
emissions. Presently, it has a total of approximately 100
permits for emission sources at its power stations and other
facilities, expiring at various times. In addition to having the
requisite operating permits, each source of regulated emissions
must be operated within the regulatory limitations on emissions.
Verification of such compliance is usually accomplished by
reports to regulatory authorities and inspections by such
authorities.
In accordance with the requirements of the Illinois Clean
Air Act Permit Program (CAAPP), IP submitted new air permit
applications for each of its generating facilities in 1995. The
IEPA will review these applications and is expected to issue
CAAPP permits in 1996 or 1997.
In addition to the sulfur dioxide emission limitations for
existing facilities, both the USEPA and the State of Illinois
adopted New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) applicable to
coal-fired generating units limiting emissions to 1.2 pounds of
sulfur dioxide per million Btu of heat input. This standard is
applicable to IP's Unit 6 at the Havana power station. The
federal NSPS also limit nitrogen oxides, opacity and particulate
emissions and imposes certain monitoring requirements. In 1977
and 1990 the Act was amended and, as a result, USEPA has adopted
more stringent emission standards for new sources. These
standards would apply to any new plant constructed by IP.
Clean Air Act
- - -------------
For information on the impacts of the Clean Air Act
Amendments of 1990, see "Note 4 - Commitments and Contingencies"
on page A-18 of the 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders in the
appendix to the Illinova Proxy Statement which is incorporated
herein by reference.
Manufactured-Gas Plant (MGP) Sites
- - ----------------------------------
For information on MGP sites, see "Note 4 - Commitments and
Contingencies" on page A-18 of the 1995 Annual Report to
Shareholders in the appendix to the Illinova Proxy Statement
which is incorporated herein by reference.
Water Quality
- - -------------
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972
require that National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) permits be obtained from USEPA (or, when delegated, from
individual state pollution control agencies) for any discharge
into navigable waters. Such discharges are required to conform
with the standards, including thermal, established by USEPA and
also with applicable state standards.
Enforcement of discharge limitations is accomplished in part
through the regulatory permitting process similar to that
described previously under "Air Quality". Presently, IP has
approximately two dozen permits for discharges at its power
stations and other facilities, which must be periodically
renewed.
In addition to obtaining such permits, each source of
regulated discharges must be operated within the limitations
prescribed by applicable regulations. Verification of such
compliance is usually accomplished by monitoring results reported
to regulatory authorities and inspections by such authorities.
The Baldwin power station (Baldwin) NPDES permit was
reissued during the fourth quarter of 1993 and is due for renewal
in the fourth quarter of 1997. The Hennepin power station
(Hennepin) permit was reissued in 1992 and is due for renewal in
the third quarter of 1997. The application to renew the Clinton
permit has been submitted and IP is allowed to continue to
operate the plant at currently authorized levels. IP expects the
permit to be reissued in the second quarter of 1996. The
Vermilion power station (Vermilion), Wood River power station
(Wood River) and Havana permits were reissued in 1991 and were
due for renewal in the fourth quarter of 1995. IP submitted all
three applications for reissuance. The Havana permit was
reissued effective March 1, 1996, and the Wood River permit is
expected during the second quarter of 1996. The IEPA has not
begun reviewing the Vermilion application; therefore, no
realistic estimation can be made regarding its reissuance date.
Because the applications have been filed, all three plants can
continue operations without reissued permits.
The Baldwin NPDES permit has been modified to extend the
compliance schedule for achieving compliance with the boron
effluent limit for its ash pond discharge. The initial date for
achieving compliance was October 1996; however, because of delays
caused by the flooded Kaskaskia River, necessary mixing zones
studies could not be completed as anticipated. IEPA modified the
permit to extend the compliance schedule until December 1, 1997,
which allowed IP sufficient time to complete all necessary
studies.
Other Issues
- - ------------
Hazardous and non-hazardous wastes generated by IP must be
managed in accordance with federal regulations under the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA), the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and additional state
regulations promulgated under both RCRA and state law.
Regulations promulgated in 1988 under RCRA govern IP's use of
underground storage tanks. The use, storage, and disposal of
certain toxic substances, such as polychlorinated biphenyls
(PCBs) in electrical equipment, are regulated under the TSCA.
Hazardous substances used by IP are subject to reporting
requirements under the Emergency Planning and Community-Right-To-
Know Act. The State of Illinois has been delegated authority for
enforcement of these regulations under the Illinois Environmental
Protection Act and state statutes. These requirements impose
certain monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting and operational
requirements which IP has implemented or is implementing to
assure compliance. IP does not anticipate that compliance will
have a material adverse effect on its financial position or
results of operations.
Between June 1983 and January 1985, IP shipped various
materials containing PCBs to the Martha C. Rose Chemicals, Inc.
(Rose) facility in Holden, Missouri for proper treatment and
disposal. Rose, pursuant to permits issued by USEPA, had
undertaken to dispose of PCB materials for IP and others, but
failed in part to do so. As a result of such failure, PCB
materials were being stored at the facility. In 1986, IP joined
with a number of other generators to efficiently and economically
cleanup the facility. The Steering Committee, consisting of IP
and 15 other entities, has successfully implemented the Remedial
Design Work Plan. The Steering Committee is required to monitor
ground water at the site from a minimum of five years to a
maximum of ten years after completion of the plan. Based upon
data collected during the first year of ground water monitoring,
the Steering Committee has petitioned the USEPA to amend the
record of decision to negate additional ground water monitoring.
This will allow the USEPA to end the Committee's liability at the
Rose site. At the present time, management does not believe its
ratable share of potential liability related to the cost of
future activities at the Rose site will have a material adverse
effect on Illinova's or IP's consolidated financial position or
results of operations.
Electric and Magnetic Fields
- - ----------------------------
For information on Electric and Magnetic Fields, see "Note 4
- - - Commitments and Contingencies" on page A-18 of the 1995 Annual
Report to Shareholders in the appendix to the Illinova Proxy
Statement which is incorporated herein by reference.
Environmental Expenditures
- - --------------------------
Operating expenses for environmentally-related activities in
1995 were approximately $22 million (including the incremental
costs of alternative fuels to meet environmental requirements).
IP's accumulated capital expenditures (including AFUDC) for
environmental protection programs since 1969 have reached
approximately $814 million.
Research and Development
------------------------
Illinova's research and development expenditures, consisting
entirely of IP's research and development expenditures, during
1995, 1994 and 1993 were approximately $5.5 million, $5.5 million
and $6.4 million, respectively. The higher research and
development costs in 1993 were due primarily to increased dues to
the Electric Power Research Institute and increased alternate
fuel testing at the Baldwin power station. The lower research
and development costs during 1994 and 1995 were because of
decreased alternate fuel testing at the Baldwin power station and
an overall reduction in discretionary spending at IP.
Regulation
----------
Under the Illinois Public Utilities Act, the ICC has broad
powers of supervision and regulation with respect to the rates
and charges of IP, its services and facilities, extensions or
abandonment of service, classification of accounts, valuation and
depreciation of property, issuance of securities and various
other matters. Before a new electric generating plant or a
significant addition to an existing facility may be included in
IP's rate base, the ICC must determine that the plant or addition
is reasonable in cost, prudent and used and useful in providing
utility service to customers.
Illinova and IP are exempt from all the provisions of the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 except Section 9(a)(2)
thereof. That section requires approval of the Securities and Ex
change Commission prior to certain acquisitions of any securities
of other public utility companies or public utility holding
companies.
IP is subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act by
the FERC as to rates and charges in connection with the
transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce and the
sale of such energy at wholesale in interstate commerce, the
issuance of debt securities maturing in not more than 12 months,
accounting and depreciation policies, and certain other matters.
The FERC has declared IP exempt from the Natural Gas Act and the
orders, rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
IP is subject to the jurisdiction of the NRC with respect to
Clinton. NRC regulations control the granting of permits and
licenses for the construction and operation of nuclear power
stations and subject such stations to continuing review and
regulation. Additionally, the NRC review and regulatory process
covers decommissioning, radioactive waste, environmental and
radiological aspects of such stations. In general, the NRC
continues to propose new and revised rules relating to the
operations and maintenance aspects of nuclear facilities. It is
unclear whether such proposed rules will be adopted and what
effect, if any, such adoption will have on IP.
IP is subject to the jurisdiction of the Illinois Department
of Nuclear Safety (IDNS) with respect to Clinton. IDNS and the
NRC entered a memorandum of understanding which allows IDNS to
review and regulate nuclear safety matters at state nuclear
facilities. The IDNS review and regulatory process covers
radiation safety, environmental safety, non-nuclear pressure
vessels, emergency preparedness and emergency response. IDNS
continues to propose new and revised state administrative code.
It is unclear if such proposed rules will be adopted and what
effect, if any, such adoption will have on IP.

Item 2. Properties
- - -------
IP owns and operates six steam generating stations with
composite net summer capacity of 4,296,000 kilowatts. In
addition, IP owns nine quick start combustion turbine peaking
units at three locations with a combined net summer capacity of
147,000 kilowatts. The total IP owned system net summer
capability is 4,443,000 kilowatts.
All of the generating stations are in the State of Illinois
and are wholly-owned by IP, except for 13.2% of the Clinton power
station owned by Soyland. Clinton is IP's only nuclear
generating station. IP owns 807,000 kilowatts (86.8%) of the
930,000 kilowatt station.
The major coal fired units at Baldwin, Havana, Hennepin and
Wood River make up 2,936,000 kilowatts of capacity. Units
comprising 377,000 kilowatts of capacity at the Wood River and
Havana stations currently are not staffed but are available to
meet reserve requirements with a maximum of four months notice.
During 1995, natural gas firing capability was added to the
Vermilion station. Vermilion now has the capability for either
coal or natural gas firing to achieve its capacity of 176,000
kilowatts. Vermilion now is operated as a peaking plant, mainly
during the summer season.
IP owns an interconnected electric transmission system of
approximately 2,800 circuit miles, operating from 69,000 to
345,000 volts and a distribution system which includes about
37,200 circuit miles of overhead and underground lines.
All outstanding first mortgage bonds issued under the
Mortgage and Deed of Trust dated November 1, 1943 are secured by
a first mortgage lien on substantially all of the fixed property,
franchises and rights of IP with certain exceptions expressly
provided in the mortgage securing the bonds. All outstanding New
Mortgage Bonds issued under the General Mortgage and Deed of
Trust dated November 1, 1992, are secured by a lien on IP's

In December 1994, IP filed a petition with the ICC seeking
approval of a program whereby IP will reacquire shares of its
common stock from Illinova, from time to time, at prices
determined to be equivalent to current market value. The
reacquired stock will be retained as treasury stock or canceled.
On March 22, 1995, the ICC approved the common stock repurchase
program. The ICC specified that IP may initiate the repurchase
of shares of its common stock from Illinova subject to meeting
certain financial tests. The ICC did not set a limit on the
number of shares of common stock that can be repurchased. During
1995, IP repurchased 2,696,086 shares for a total of $67.3
million, averaging about $25 per share.
