The Honorable, The Legislature:
In February 1999, a report that covered the financial operations of WPL Holdings, Inc. (WPLH) through 1997, as required by Wis. State. s.
196.795(7)(ar), was sent to the Legislature for distribution under Wis. States. 13.172(2).
In April 1998, WPLH merged with two Iowa companies to form the holding company that has now been renamed Alliant Energy Corporation (AEC). The enclosed audit report on the 1998 operations of AEC was prepared at the Commission's direction to supplement the report sent earlier this year.
As noted on page 12 of this report, the Commission staff is continuing to work with AEC to determine if all of the nonutility affiliates (detailed in Appendix C) comply with Wis. Stats. s.
196.795(7), and will be updating the Commission on its findings.
Sincerely,
Lynda L. Dorr
