Central and South West Corporation, et al. (70-8433)

    Central and South West Corporation (``CSW''), a registered holding 
company, and its nonutility subsidiary company CSW Energy, Inc. 
(``Energy''), both located at 1616 Woodall Rodgers Freeway, P.O. Box 
660164, Dallas, Texas 75202, and its proposed nonutility subsidiary, 
Energy Sub (``Energy Sub'') (together, ``Applicants''), have filed an 
application-declaration under Sections 6, 7, 9(a), 10, 12(b) and 32 of 
the Act and Rules 43, 45 and 54 thereunder.
    CSW and Energy propose to form and invest in Energy Sub, a wholly 
owned special purpose subsidiary of Energy, in connection with the 
purchase from Texasgulf, Inc. (``Texasgulf''), a nonassociate 
corporation, of an approximately 85 megawatt natural gas fired 
generation facility, including approximately 40 acres of land 
(``Project'') located in or near Wharton County, Texas. Energy Sub will 
develop the Project such that it will qualify as an exempt wholesale 
generator, as defined in Section 32(e) of the Act (``EWG'').
    Energy Sub will be incorporated under the laws of the State of 
Delaware with an authorized capital of up to 1,000 shares of common 
stock, each without par value. Energy will subscribe to all of Energy 
Sub's common stock at a subscription price of $1.00 per share.
    It is further proposed that Energy Sub will purchase the Project 
from Texasgulf, the sole owner of the Project, for a purchase price in 
an amount not to exceed $11 million (``Purchase Price'') at financial 
closing of the purchase of the Project (``Purchase Closing''). The 
Purchase Closing is anticipated to occur promptly after the 
Commission's approval of the proposed transactions, expected to be in 
July 1994.
    In addition to the Purchase Price, Energy Sub anticipates incurring 
costs to develop the Project. The aggregate of such development costs 
will not exceed $5 million (``Development Costs''). CSW and Energy 
propose to fund the Purchase Price and the Development Costs by capital 
contributions, loans or open account advances from CSW to Energy and 
from Energy to Energy Sub. All such loans or open account advances from 
CSW to Energy and from Energy to Energy Sub would bear interest at a 
rate per annum not in excess of CSW's weighted cost of capital and 
would have a final maturity not to exceed five years.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
