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

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.

Northeast Utilities Parent is the parent company of NU's subsidiaries. NU's regulated utilities furnish franchised retail electric service in Connecticut, New Hampshire and Massachusetts through three wholly owned subsidiaries: The Connecticut Light and Power Company (CL&P), Public Service Company of New Hampshire and Western Massachusetts Electric Company (WMECO). Other subsidiaries include Holyoke Water Power Company (HWP), a company engaged in the production of electric power, and Yankee Energy System, Inc. (Yankee), the parent company of Yankee Gas Services Company, Connecticut's largest natural gas distribution system.

Several wholly owned subsidiaries of NU provide support services for NU's companies. Northeast Utilities Service Company provides centralized accounting, administrative, engineering, financial, information technology, legal, operational, planning, purchasing, and other services to NU's companies. Three other subsidiaries construct, acquire or lease some of the property and facilities used by NU's companies.

NU Enterprises, Inc. (NU Enterprises) is a wholly owned subsidiary of NU and acts as the holding company for certain of NU's subsidiaries. Select Energy, Inc. (Select Energy) and its consolidated subsidiary Select Energy New York, Inc. (SENY), Northeast Generation Services Company (NGS) and its subsidiaries, Select Energy Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries (SESI), Mode 1 Communications, Inc. and Woods Network Services, Inc., engage in a variety of energy-related and telecommunications activities, primarily in the competitive energy retail and wholesale commodity, marketing and services fields. Northeast Generation Company (NGC) acquires generation facilities. E.S. Boulos Company (Boulos), NGS Mechanical, Inc. (NGS Mechanical) and Woods Electrical Co., Inc. (Woods Electrical) are wholly owned subsidiaries of NGS. Greenport Power, LLC (Greenport) is a joint venture that is 50 percent owned by NGS. Select Energy Contracting, Inc.

The energy services business segment includes Boulos, NGS Mechanical, Woods Electrical, Greenport, Select Energy Contracting, Reeds Ferry, HEC/Tobyhanna, HEC/CJTS, ERI/HEC, and Woods Network.

NU Enterprises Business Review: On March 9, 2005, NU concluded its previously announced comprehensive review of each of NU Enterprises' businesses. As a result of the comprehensive review, NU decided that NU Enterprises will exit Select Energy’s wholesale marketing business and will explore ways to divest the energy services businesses in a manner that maximizes their value. NU will retain NGC’s competitive generation assets and Select Energy’s retail energy marketing business, because it believes that the generation assets and retail business are competitively positioned to create significant opportunities for those businesses over the next several years. NU will also retain NGS to provide operating services to its competitive generation assets.

Select Energy, SENY, NGS, Boulos, NGS Mechanical, Woods Electrical, Greenport, Select Energy Contracting, Reeds Ferry, HEC/Tobyhanna, HEC/CJTS, ERI/HEC and YESCO are "energy-related companies" under rule 58.

Restructuring and Impairment Charges

NU Enterprises recorded $234.4 million of pre-tax restructuring and impairment charges in the first quarter of 2005 directly related to the decision to exit the wholesale marketing business, to divest its energy services businesses and to reevaluate the generation and retail businesses. A summary of those pre-tax charges (credits) is as follows (millions of dollars):

Merchant Energy:
Mark-to-market on long-term wholesale electricity contracts		$257.7
Mark-to-market on retail marketing supply contracts		(94.0)
Mark-to-market on other wholesale contracts		(25.8)
Subtotal mark-to-market restructuring charges		137.9
Other wholesale marketing charges		58.2
Subtotal Merchant Energy		196.1
Energy Services:
Impairment of goodwill and intangibles		38.3
Total restructuring and impairment charges		$234.4

The $234.4 million pre-tax restructuring and impairment charges above includes losses and gains as described below. The first component is a Select Energy pre-tax loss of $257.7 million associated with the mark-to-market on certain long-term below market wholesale electricity contracts. The decision in March 2005 to exit the wholesale marketing business changed management’s conclusion regarding the likelihood that these wholesale marketing contracts would result in physical delivery to customers. This in turn resulted in a change in the first quarter of 2005 from accrual accounting to fair value accounting for the wholesale marketing contracts.

This loss was offset by Select Energy pre-tax gains totaling $94 million associated with marking-to-market certain wholesale electricity positions that were obtained to support Select Energy's retail marketing contracts. Originally, retail electric supply was sourced along with the wholesale supply by the wholesale marketing business. As a result of the decision to exit the wholesale marketing business, these purchase contracts were required to be marked-to-market.

In addition, a Select Energy pre-tax gain of $25.8 million was recorded for other wholesale contracts related to electricity that would have been delivered to customers primarily in 2005 and 2006. As a result of exiting the wholesale marketing business, these contracts were also required to be marked-to-market. Prior to the decision to exit the wholesale marketing business, it was management's intention to deliver the electricity to the customer. As such, accrual accounting was used through December 31, 2004. Under accrual accounting, earnings would have been recorded as the electricity would have been delivered in 2005 and 2006.

The restructuring and impairment charges above also include Select Energy pre-tax charges of $58.2 million associated with other costs from exiting the wholesale marketing business, such as termination payments and contract asset write-offs.

In March 2005, NU Enterprises hired an outside firm to assist in valuing its energy services businesses and assist in their divestiture. Based in part on that firm's work, the company concluded that $29.1 million of goodwill associated with those businesses and $9.2 million of intangible assets were impaired. An impairment charge of $38.3 million was recorded. NU Enterprises has initiated the process of divesting those businesses and may record additional charges as the divestiture is completed.

The after-tax impact of these charges totaling $150.2 million is net of a $84.2 million income tax benefit which is included as a reduction to income tax expense.

Included in Select Energy’s restructuring and impairment charges is a negative $54.5 million pre-tax mark-to-market charge related to an intercompany contract between Select Energy and CL&P. The contract extends through 2013 at below current market prices for CL&P. This contract is part of CL&P’s stranded costs, and benefits received by CL&P under this contract are provided to CL&P’s ratepayers. A $2.8 million pre-tax mark-to-market loss was recorded by Select Energy for the intercompany contract between Select Energy and WMECO for default service from April to June of 2005. WMECO’s benefits under this contract will be provided to ratepayers in the form of lower than market default service rates. These charges were not eliminated in consolidation because on a consolidated basis NU retains the over-market obligation to the ratepayers of CL&P and WMECO.

Derivative Instruments, Market Risk Information and Other Risk Management Activities

Derivative Instruments

Derivatives that are utilized for trading purposes are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings. 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 earnings. 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 until the underlying transactions occur. 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 earnings. Derivative contracts designated as fair value hedges and the item they are hedging are both recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. Derivative contracts that are entered into as a normal purchase or sale and will result in physical delivery, and are documented as such, are recognized in revenue and expense when such deliveries occur.

There was a positive pre-tax impact of $0.6 million recognized in earnings in 2005 for the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges. A negative pre-tax $0.1 million was recognized in earnings in 2005 for the ineffective portion of fair value hedges. The changes in the fair value of both the fair value hedges and the natural gas inventory being hedged are recorded in purchased power, net interchange power and capacity on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

The table below summarizes current and long-term derivative assets and liabilities at March 31, 2005. The business activities of NU Enterprises that result in the recognition of derivative assets include concentrations of credit risk to energy marketing and trading counterparties. At March 31, 2005, Select Energy had $485.4 million of derivative assets from trading, non-trading, and hedging activities. These assets are exposed to counterparty credit risk. However, a significant portion of these assets is contracted with investment grade rated counterparties or collateralized with cash. The amounts below do not include option premiums paid, which amounted to $6.4 million related to energy trading activities and $0.6 million related to marketing activities at March 31, 2005. These amounts also do not include option premiums paid of $13.6 million related to non-trading gas options at March 31, 2005.

These amounts also do not include option premiums received, which are recorded as current liabilities and amounted to $5.5 million related to energy trading activities and $0.1 million related to marketing activities at March 31, 2005. Also not included at March 31, 2005 are option premiums received of $13.8 million related to non-trading gas options.

(Millions of Dollars)	Assets		Liabilities
	Current	Long-Term	Current	Long-Term	Net Total
NU Enterprises:
Trading	$ 62.2	$ 51.0	$ (60.6)	$ (5.1)	$ 47.5
Non-trading	274.2	85.2	(300.9)	(276.5)	(218.0)
Hedging	12.4	0.4	(6.9)	-	5.9
Total	$348.8	$136.6	$(368.4)	$(281.6)	$(164.6)

Trading: Historically, to gather market intelligence and utilize this information in risk management activities for the wholesale marketing activities, Select Energy conducted limited energy trading activities in electricity, natural gas, and oil, and therefore, experienced net open positions. Limited trading activities will continue for price discovery and deal execution to support the retail marketing business. Select Energy manages open trading positions with strict policies that limit its 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 consolidated balance sheet as derivative assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value are recognized in operating revenues in the consolidated statement of operations in the period of change. The net fair value position of the trading portfolio at March 31, 2005 was an asset of $47.5 million.

Select Energy's trading portfolio includes New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) futures, financial swaps, and options, the fair value of which is based on closing exchange prices; over-the-counter forwards, financial swaps, and options, the fair value of which is based on the mid-point of bid and ask market prices; and 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. Select Energy's trading portfolio also includes transmission congestion contracts (TCC). The fair value of the TCCs included in the trading portfolio is based on published market data.

Non-Trading: Certain non-trading derivative contracts are part of Select Energy's wholesale and retail marketing activities. These contracts include the electricity contracts and the wholesale natural gas contracts that were used in Select Energy's energy sourcing activities. These contracts also include other wholesale and retail short-term and long-term electricity supply and sales contracts, which include contracts to sell electricity to utilities under full requirements contracts and contracts to sell electricity to municipalities over terms up to eight years. The fair value of the natural gas contracts was determined by prices provided by external sources and actively quoted markets. The fair value of electricity contracts was determined by prices from external sources for years through 2008 and by models based on natural gas prices and a conversion factor to electricity.

The fair value of non-trading contracts, both assets and liabilities combined, decreased by $139.4 million from a negative $78.6 million to a negative $218 million, as follows (in millions):

Net fair value at December 31, 2004	($78.6)
Change in fair value of wholesale natural gas contracts used in energy sourcing	(40.7)
Mark-to-market restructuring charge	(137.9)
Contracts realized or otherwise settled during the period	38.3
Other changes in fair value	0.9
Net fair value at March 31, 2005	($218.0)

Hedging: Select Energy utilizes 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 and purchase commitments to certain retail customers. Select Energy also utilizes 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 supply and delivery 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 or natural gas. 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. Cash flow 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 maintains natural gas service agreements with certain customers to supply gas at fixed prices for terms extending through 2010. Select Energy has hedged its gas supply risk under these agreements through NYMEX futures contracts. Under these contracts, which also extend through 2010, the purchase price of a specified quantity of gas is effectively fixed over the term of the gas service agreements. At March 31, 2005 the NYMEX futures contracts had notional values of $33 million and were recorded at fair value as derivative assets of $10.6 million.

Select Energy also maintains various physical and financial instruments to hedge its electric and gas purchases and sales through 2006. These instruments include forwards, futures, options, financial collars and swaps. These hedging contracts, which are valued at the mid-point of bid and ask market prices, were recorded as derivative assets of $2.4 million and derivative liabilities of $6.9 million at March 31, 2005.

Select Energy hedges certain amounts of natural gas inventory with gas futures, options and swaps, some of which are accounted for as fair value hedges. Changes in the fair value of hedging instruments and natural gas inventory are recorded in earnings. The fair value of the futures, options and swaps were included in derivative assets and amounted to a negative $0.2 million at March 31, 2005. The fair value of the hedged natural gas inventory was $0.1 million at March 31, 2005. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, Select Energy recorded a positive pre-tax of $0.6 million in earnings related to contracts settled for its hedging instruments and natural gas inventory.

Market Risk Information

Select Energy utilizes the sensitivity analysis methodology to disclose quantitative information for its commodity price risks (including where applicable capacity and ancillary components). Sensitivity analysis provides a presentation of the potential loss of future earnings, fair values or cash flows from market risk-sensitive instruments over a selected time period due to one or more hypothetical changes in commodity price components, or other similar price changes. Under sensitivity analysis, the fair value of the portfolio is a function of the underlying commodity components, contract prices and market prices represented by each derivative 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.

Retail Marketing and Generation Portfolios: When conducting sensitivity analyses of the change in the fair value of Select Energy's electricity, natural gas and oil on the retail marketing and generation portfolios, 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 consideration 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 quoted prices on the futures exchange.

Select Energy has determined a hypothetical change in the fair value for its retail marketing and generation portfolios, which includes cash flow and fair value hedges and electricity, natural gas and oil contracts, assuming a 10 percent change in forward market prices. At March 31, 2005, a 10 percent increase in market price would have resulted in a pre-tax increase in fair value of $134.5 million ($85 million after-tax) and a 10 percent decrease would have resulted in a pre-tax decrease in fair value of $133.3 million ($84.2 million after-tax).

The impact of a change in electricity, natural gas and oil prices on Select Energy's wholesale and retail marketing portfolio at March 31, 2005, is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when these contracts are physically delivered. Most contracts in the retail marketing and generation portfolios are accounted for at delivery, and changes in fair value are not expected to impact earnings.

Restructuring Transactions: Wholesale mark-to-market contracts (excluding trading contracts) include contracts that were marked-to-market in the restructuring charge. These contracts included certain long-term below market wholesale electricity contracts, certain shorter-term wholesale contracts of three years or less and certain wholesale electricity positions that were obtained to support Select Energy's retail marketing contracts. At March 31, 2005, Select Energy has calculated the market price resulting from a 10 percent change in forward market prices of those contracts. A 10 percent increase would have resulted as a pre-tax decrease in fair value of $72.8 million ($46 million after-tax) and a 10 percent decrease would have resulted in a pre-tax increase in fair value of $71.7 million ($45.3 million after-tax) for the restructuring transactions.

The impact of a change in electricity and natural gas prices on Select Energy's restructuring transactions at March 31, 2005, are not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when these contracts are physically delivered. These transactions are accounted for at fair value, and changes in market prices impact earnings.

Trading Contracts: At March 31, 2005, Select Energy has calculated the market price resulting from a 10 percent change in forward market prices. A 10 percent increase would have resulted in a pre-tax increase in fair value of $5 million ($3.2 million after-tax) increase and a 10 percent decrease would have resulted in a pre-tax decrease in fair value of $4.8 million ($3 million after-tax). In the normal course of business, Select Energy also faces risks that are either non-financial or non-quantifiable. These risks principally include credit risk, which is not reflected in this sensitivity analysis.

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 its contractual obligations. NU serves a wide variety of customers and suppliers that include IPPs, 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 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 lines 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 cleared off the NYMEX exchange are ultimately guaranteed by NYMEX to Select Energy. Select Energy has 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 condition (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 entering into energy contracts. The appropriateness of these limits is subject to continuing review. Concentrations among these counterparties may impact Select Energy’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 March 31, 2005, Select Energy maintained collateral balances from counterparties of $95.6 million. These amounts are included in current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Select Energy also has collateral balances deposited with counterparties of $17.1 million at March 31, 2005.
