June 26, 1997.
Take notice that the following filings have been made with the

associated with the tunnel under the Fore River. The sale enables NEP
to serve its Quincy load and has the effect of extending the useful
service life of transmission facilities that Boston Edison otherwise
would have retired. Boston Edison submits that the sale is consistent
with the public interest and requests the Commission to approve the
sale within 60 days.
