    Take notice that on August 29, 1997, Portland General Electric

    PGE states that the contracts proposed to be assigned are a 
Settlement Exchange Agreement, dated September 17, 1985, between the 
United States of America, and the Department of Energy, acting through 
the Bonneville Power Administration and PGE. The second contract is a 
Long-Term Power Sale Agreement dated August 24, 1987, between PGE and
