          The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including portions of the Utility's monthly operating report for the month ended August 31, 2003 filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California (Bankruptcy Court) attached hereto as an exhibit, is being furnished, not filed, pursuant to Item 9 of Form 8-K.

          On October 1, 2003, the Utility filed its monthly operating report for the month ended August 31, 2003 with the Bankruptcy Court, as required by Section 704(8) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and Rule 2015 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and prepared in accordance with U.S. Trustee Guidelines Region 17.  The Utility's monthly operating report includes an unaudited income statement for the month and an unaudited balance sheet dated as of the end of the month.  These unaudited financial statements are attached as an exhibit to this report. Although not included in the exhibit attached to this report, the monthly operating report filed with the Bankruptcy Court also includes a statement of receipts and disbursements, as well as other information.  The preliminary financial statements were prepared using certain assumptions and estimates that are subject to revision.  Any adjustments for these estimates (based upon changes in facts and circumstances, further analysis, and other factors) will be reflected in the financial statements in the period during which such adjustments are made.  These adjustments could have a material impact on reported results in the future.
