    Panhandle states that on April 8, 1998, it refunded to its 
jurisdictional customers their allocated share of the Kansas Ad Valorem

the succeeding thirteen month period April 1998 through April 1999 
Panhandle has received only a small additional amount of Kansas Ad 
Valorem Tax refunds from its producer suppliers. Pursuant to Appendix E 
of the Commission's September 10, 1997 Order, interest will accrue on 
refunds received from producer suppliers and held longer than thirty 
days. Accordingly, Panhandle will continue to accrue interest in

each of Panhandle's affected customers and respective State Regulatory 
Commissions.
