TUGCO is pleased to see that Brownsville does not object to settlement of the South Texas case, because this should pave the way to simultaneous approvals of the settlements in and orders terminating the South Texas and Comanche Peak pro-ceedings. This would also seem to obviate the need for the intermediate step of severance of the proceedings; S/ it would appear that the parties might better turn their attention to motions for termination of the proceedings.

, Respectfully submitted, w

3/ TUGCO will of course still file for severance, if that course is indicated, and would expect to do so on a joint basis.
