Exhibit 10.06

                            REQUEST FOR ACTION BY THE
               SCANA LONG-TERM EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN COMMITTEE
                                  OF THE BOARD


                  WHEREAS, SCANA Corporation has contracted with Merrill Lynch
to perform various administrative services with regard to the Nonqualified Stock
Options ["Options"] benefit feature of the SCANA Long-Term Equity Compensation
Plan ["Plan"]; and

                  WHEREAS, in the structuring of those services Merrill Lynch
has advised that, with respect to establishing the Fair Market Value for the
non-cashless exercises of Options, its system is designed to identify the
closing price on the New York Stock Exchange for each trading date; and

                  WHEREAS, presently Section 2.16 of the Plan defines Fair
Market Value to mean, except for cashless exercises, "the opening sale price on
the principal securities exchange on which the shares are traded", which, as
noted above, the Merrill Lynch system will not identify without considerable
expense and delay to SCANA for program changes to their system; and

                  WHEREAS, SCANA regards it practical and prudent to conform the
operation of its Plan to accommodate the regular workings of the Merrill Lynch
system in so far as it define Fair Market Value for the non-cashless exercise of
Options to mean a trading day's closing price on the principal securities
exchanges on which the Shares are traded; and

                  WHEREAS, it is more consistent with Internal Revenue Service
valuation principles to value a publicly traded stock by benchmarking a share
sales price occurring on the subject valuation date itself, thereby recommending
use of the closing composite price for the exercise date prospectively indicated
by a Participant in a non-cashless exercise; and

                  WHEREAS, the SCANA Long-Term Equity Compensation Committee of
the Board ["Committee"] has vested authority pursuant to Section 15.1 of the
Plan to amend the definition of Fair Market Value to accomplish the above
purpose;

                  NOW, THEREFORE, we the members of the Committee by our
respective signatures and check "Approved" below adopt the following amended
[the change noted by underlined text] and restated definition of Fair Market
Value for Section 2.16 of the Plan:

                     "Fair Market Value" shall be determined on the basis of the
                     opening sale price on the principal securities exchange on
                     which the Shares are traded or, if there is no such sale on
                     the relevant date, then on the last previous day on which a
                     sale was reported, except that as to the "cashless"
                     exercise of Nonqualified Stock Options pursuant to Section
                     6.6 of the Plan, the "Fair Market Value" of Shares for
                     determining the Compensation amount recognized by the
                     Participant shall be the actual trade price on the
                     principal securities exchange of Shares sold to provide
                     cash to the Participant, and further except that as to the
                     "non-cashless" exercise of Nonqualified Stock Options
                     pursuant to Section 6.6 of the Plan, the "Fair Market
                     Value" of Shares shall be the closing composite price on
                     the principal securities exchanges on which the Shares are
                     traded for that trading date coinciding with the exercise
                     date prospectively indicated by the Participant in his/her
                     "Notice of Intention to Exercise" letter, or if no sales of
                     Shares occur on said date, then for the next subsequent
                     trading date on which such sales occur.
