      As of December 31, 2002, Central Hudson's electric transmission and
distribution systems were comprised of 88 substations with a rated transformer
capacity of approximately 5.0 million kVA, approximately 599 circuit miles of
overhead transmission lines, approximately 4.2 cable miles of underground
transmission lines, approximately 7,527 circuit miles of overhead distribution
lines and approximately 1,028 cable miles of underground distribution cables.
Only a part of such transmission and distribution lines is located on property
owned by Central Hudson. The electric system of Central Hudson is directly
interconnected with other electric utility systems in New York, Connecticut, and
New Jersey, and indirectly interconnected with most of the electric utility
systems in the United States. Transmission Circuit Miles include: 345, 115 and
69 kV. Distribution Circuit Miles include: 34.5, 14.4, 13.2, 4.8 and 4.16 kV.
The transformer kVA value is the summation of transformers' top nameplate
ratings; the summation of Summer Normal ratings would be higher. Generator
step-up transformers are included; spare transformers and generation station
auxiliary transformers are excluded.

      Natural gas is delivered by transmission pipeline to Central Hudson at
four locations: the Cedar Hill (NY) Gate Station interconnection with Tennessee
Gas Pipeline Company ("Tennessee"), the Pleasant Valley (NY) Gate Station
interconnection with Iroquois Gas Transmission System, L.P., the Mahopac (NY)
Gate Station interconnection with Duke Energy Gas Transmission Company and the
Tuxedo (NY) Gate Station interconnection with Columbia


                                      (4)


Gas Transmission Company ("Columbia"). Natural gas is distributed to
approximately 65,300 industrial, commercial and residential customers through a
network of 161 miles of transmission pipeline and 1,041 miles of distribution
mains. Central Hudson owns and operates propane-air peaking facilities at
Poughkeepsie and Newburgh, NY which are each nominally rated at 8,000 MCF per
day of injection capability into the distribution system. In addition, Central
Hudson has entered into long-term contracts with National Fuel Gas Corporation,
Columbia, Tennessee, Texas Eastern and Dominion Transmission Corporations for a
maximum total of 3.3 BCF of storage, located in various fields in the eastern
United States.
