                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
     The proceeds from the sale of the Series DD Senior Notes will be used by
the Company to repay a portion of its outstanding short-term indebtedness, which
aggregated approximately $48,500,000 as of March 8, 2005, and for other general
corporate purposes, including the Company's continuous construction program.
 
                   DESCRIPTION OF THE SERIES DD SENIOR NOTES
 
     Set forth below is a description of the specific terms of the Series DD
5.65% Senior Notes due March 15, 2035 (the "Series DD Senior Notes"). This
description supplements, and should be read together with, the description of
the general terms and provisions of the senior notes set forth in the
accompanying Prospectus under the caption "Description of the Senior Notes." The
following description does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to, the description in the accompanying
Prospectus and the Senior Note Indenture (the "Senior Note Indenture") dated as
of December 1, 1997, as supplemented, between the Company and JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A. (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank), as trustee (the "Senior
Note Indenture Trustee").
 
GENERAL
 
     The Series DD Senior Notes will be issued as a series of senior notes under
the Senior Note Indenture. The Series DD Senior Notes will be initially issued
in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000,000. The Company may, without the
consent of the holders of the Series DD Senior Notes, issue additional notes
having the same ranking and interest rate, maturity and other terms as the
Series DD Senior Notes (except for the issue price and issue date). Any
additional notes having such similar terms, together with the Series DD Senior
Notes, will constitute a single series of senior notes under the Senior Note
Indenture.
 
     The entire principal amount of the Series DD Senior Notes will mature and
become due and payable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
on March 15, 2035. The Series DD Senior Notes are not subject to any sinking
fund provision. The Series DD Senior Notes are available for purchase in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.
 
INTEREST
 
     Each Series DD Senior Note will bear interest at the rate of 5.65% per year
(the "Securities Rate") from the date of original issuance, payable semiannually
in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment
Date") to the person in whose name such Series DD Senior Note is registered at
the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day prior to such payment date
(whether or not a Business Day). The initial Interest Payment Date is September
15, 2005. The amount of interest payable will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which
interest is payable on the Series DD Senior Notes is not a Business Day, then
payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding
day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in
respect of any such delay), with the same force and effect as if made on such
date. "Business Day" means a day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday, (ii) a day
on which banks in New York, New York are authorized or obligated by law or
executive order to remain closed or (iii) a day on which the Senior Note
Indenture Trustee's corporate trust office is closed for business.
 
RANKING
 
     The Series DD Senior Notes will be direct, unsecured and unsubordinated
obligations of the Company and will rank equally with all other unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations of the Company. The Series DD Senior Notes will be
effectively subordinated to all secured debt of the Company, including its first
mortgage bonds, aggregating approximately $286,000,000 outstanding at December
31, 2004. The Senior Note Indenture contains no restrictions on the amount of
additional indebtedness that may be incurred by the Company.
 
                                       S-4

 
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
 
     The Series DD Senior Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of
the Company in whole or in part at any time and from time to time upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice. The Company shall have the right to
redeem the Series DD Senior Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price
equal to:
 
          (i) if the redemption date is prior to March 16, 2015, the greater of
     (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Series DD Senior Notes to be
     redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
     payments of principal and interest on the Series DD Senior Notes being
     redeemed to March 16, 2015 (for purposes of this calculation, the remaining
     scheduled payment of principal is deemed payable on March 16, 2015 (the
     "Initial Redemption Date") and the remaining scheduled payments of interest
     are those interest payments payable on or before the Initial Redemption
     Date) (excluding the portion of any such interest accrued to the date of
     redemption) discounted (for purposes of determining present value) to the
     redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting
     of twelve 30-day months) at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield (as
     defined below) plus 15 basis points; or
 
          (ii) if the redemption date is on or after March 16, 2015 and prior to
     maturity, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of
     the Series DD Senior Notes to be redeemed,
 
plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.
 
     "Treasury Yield" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per
annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as
a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for
such redemption date.
 
     "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security
selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to
the remaining term of the Series DD Senior Notes to the Initial Redemption Date
that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with
customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities
of comparable maturity to the Initial Redemption Date.
 
     "Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date, (i)
the average of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) on the third
Business Day in New York City preceding such redemption date, as set forth in
the daily statistical release (or any successor release) published by the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "H.15(519)" or (ii) if such
release (or any successor release) is not published or does not contain such
prices on such Business Day, the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation for such
redemption date.
 
     "Independent Investment Banker" means an independent investment banking
institution of national standing appointed by the Company and reasonably
acceptable to the Senior Note Indenture Trustee.
 
     "Reference Treasury Dealer" means a primary U.S. Government securities
dealer in New York City appointed by the Company and reasonably acceptable to
the Senior Note Indenture Trustee.
 
     "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation" means, with respect to the Reference
Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the
Senior Note Indenture Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount
and quoted in writing to the Senior Note Indenture Trustee by such Reference
Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the third Business Day in New York City
preceding such redemption date).
 
     If notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Series DD Senior Notes
so to be redeemed shall, on the date of redemption, become due and payable at
the redemption price together with any accrued interest thereon, and from and
after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the
redemption price and accrued interest) such Series DD Senior Notes shall cease
to bear interest. If any Series DD Senior Note called for redemption shall not
be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid,
bear interest from the date of redemption at the Securities Rate. See
"Description of the Senior Notes -- Events of Default" in the accompanying
Prospectus.
 
                                       S-5

 
     Subject to the foregoing and to applicable law (including, without
limitation, United States federal securities laws), the Company or its
affiliates may, at any time and from time to time, purchase outstanding Series
DD Senior Notes by tender, in the open market or by private agreement.
 
BOOK-ENTRY ONLY ISSUANCE -- THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY
 
     The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") will act as the initial securities
depository for the Series DD Senior Notes. The Series DD Senior Notes will be
issued only as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co.,
DTC's nominee, or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. One or more fully registered global Series DD Senior
Notes certificates will be issued, representing in the aggregate the total
principal amount of the Series DD Senior Notes, and will be deposited with the
Senior Note Indenture Trustee on behalf of DTC.
 
     DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust
company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization"
within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve
System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of
Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act").
DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 2.2 million issues of U.S. and
non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues and money market
instruments from over 100 countries that DTC's participants ("Direct
Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement
among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in
deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and
pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for
physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both
U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies,
clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC, in
turn, is owned by a number of Direct Participants of DTC and members of the
National Securities Clearing Corporation, Fixed Income Clearing Corporation and
Emerging Markets Clearing Corporation (NSCC, FICC and EMCC, also subsidiaries of
DTCC), as well as by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock
Exchange LLC and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to
the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S.
securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations
that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct
Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has
Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw Hill Companies, Inc., highest
rating: AAA. The DTC rules applicable to its Direct and Indirect Participants
are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about
DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com and www.dtc.org.
 
     Purchases of Series DD Senior Notes under the DTC system must be made by or
through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series DD
Senior Notes on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser
of Series DD Senior Notes ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the
Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive
written confirmation from DTC of their purchases. Beneficial Owners are,
however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the
transactions, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct
or Indirect Participants through which the Beneficial Owners purchased Series DD
Senior Notes. Transfers of ownership interests in the Series DD Senior Notes are
to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect
Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not
receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Series DD Senior
Notes, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Series DD
Senior Notes is discontinued.
 
     To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series DD Senior Notes deposited by
Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership
nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. The deposit of Series DD Senior Notes with DTC and their
registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect
any changes in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual
Beneficial Owners of the Series DD Senior Notes. DTC's records reflect only the
identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Series DD Senior
Notes are credited, which may or may not be
 
                                       S-6

 
the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain
responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
 
     Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct
Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct
Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as
may be in effect from time to time.
 
     Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Series DD
Senior Notes are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the
amount of interest of each Direct Participant in such Series DD Senior Notes to
be redeemed.
 
     Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote
with respect to the Series DD Senior Notes unless authorized by a Direct
Participant in accordance with DTC's procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC
mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Company as soon as possible after the record date.
The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those
Direct Participants to whose accounts Series DD Senior Notes are credited on the
record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
 
     Payments on the Series DD Senior Notes will be made to Cede & Co., or such
other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's
practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds
and corresponding detail information from the Company or the Senior Note
Indenture Trustee on the relevant payment date in accordance with their
respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Direct or Indirect
Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and
customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the account of
customers registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such
Direct or Indirect Participant and not of DTC or the Company, subject to any
statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
Payment to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Company,
disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants is the responsibility of
DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners is the
responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
 
     Except as provided herein, a Beneficial Owner of a global Series DD Senior
Note will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Series DD Senior
Notes. Accordingly, each Beneficial Owner must rely on the procedures of DTC to
exercise any rights under the Series DD Senior Notes. The laws of some
jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical
delivery of securities in definitive form. Such laws may impair the ability to
transfer beneficial interests in a global Series DD Senior Note.
 
     DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with
respect to the Series DD Senior Notes at any time by giving reasonable notice to
the Company. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities
depository is not obtained, Series DD Senior Notes certificates will be required
to be printed and delivered to the holders of record. Additionally, the Company
may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC
(or a successor securities depository) with respect to the Series DD Senior
Notes. The Company understands, however, that under current industry practices,
DTC would notify its Direct and Indirect Participants of the Company's decision,
but will only withdraw beneficial interests from a global Series DD Senior Note
at the request of each Direct or Indirect Participant. In that event,
certificates for the Series DD Senior Notes will be printed and delivered to the
applicable Direct or Indirect Participant.
 
     The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system
has been obtained from sources that the Company believes to be reliable, but the
Company takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. The Company has no
responsibility for the performance by DTC or its Direct or Indirect Participants
of their respective obligations as described herein or under the rules and
procedures governing their respective operations.

                                  UNDERWRITING
 
     Subject to the terms and conditions of an underwriting agreement (the
"Underwriting Agreement"), the Company has agreed to sell to the underwriters
named below (the "Underwriters") and each of the Underwriters has severally
agreed to purchase from the Company the principal amount of the Series DD Senior
Notes set forth opposite its name below:
 


                                                              PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF
                                                                   SERIES DD

          Total.............................................     $250,000,000
                                                                 ============

 
     In the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have agreed, subject to the
terms and conditions set forth therein, to purchase all of the Series DD Senior
Notes offered hereby, if any of the Series DD Senior Notes are purchased.
 
     The Underwriters propose to offer the Series DD Senior Notes directly to
the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this
Prospectus Supplement and may offer them to certain securities dealers at such
price less a concession not in excess of 0.50% of the principal amount per
Series DD Senior Note. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow,
a concession not in excess of 0.25% of the principal amount per Series DD Senior
Note to certain brokers and dealers. After the initial public offering, the
offering price and other selling terms may from time to time be varied by the
Underwriters.
 
     It is expected that delivery of the Series DD Senior Notes will be made,
against payment for the Series DD Senior Notes, on or about March 16, 2005,
which will be the sixth business day following the pricing of the Series DD
Senior Notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the 1934 Act, purchases or sales of
securities in the secondary market generally are required to settle within three
business days (T+3), unless the parties to any such transactions expressly agree
otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers of Series DD Senior Notes who wish to trade
the Series DD Senior Notes on the date of this Prospectus Supplement or the next
two succeeding business days will be required, because the Series DD Senior
Notes initially will settle within six business days (T+6), to specify an
alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed
settlement. Purchasers of the Series DD Senior Notes who wish to trade on the
date of this Prospectus Supplement or the next two succeeding business days
should consult their own legal advisors.
 
     The Series DD Senior Notes are a new issue of securities with no
established trading market. The Series DD Senior Notes will not be listed on any
securities exchange or on any automated dealer quotation system. The
Underwriters may make a market in the Series DD Senior Notes after completion of
the offering, but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any
market-making activities at any time without notice. No assurance can be given
as to the liquidity of the trading market for the Series DD Senior Notes or that
an active public market for the Series DD Senior Notes will develop. If an
active public trading market for the Series DD Senior Notes does not develop,
the market price and liquidity of the Series DD Senior Notes may be adversely
affected.
 
     The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
     The Company's expenses associated with the offer and sale of the Series DD
Senior Notes are estimated to be $310,000.
 
     The Company has agreed with the Underwriters, that during the period 15
days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, it will not sell, offer to
sell, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of any Series DD
Senior Notes, any security convertible into, exchangeable into or exercisable
for the Series DD Senior
 
                                       S-8

 
Notes or any debt securities substantially similar to the Series DD Senior Notes
(except for the Series DD Senior Notes issued pursuant to the Underwriting
Agreement), without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and
Lehman Brothers Inc. This agreement does not apply to issuances of commercial
paper or other debt securities with scheduled maturities of less than one year.
 
     In order to facilitate the offering of the Series DD Senior Notes, the
Underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise
affect the price of the Series DD Senior Notes. Specifically, the Underwriters
may over-allot in connection with the offering, creating short positions in the
Series DD Senior Notes for their own account. In addition, to cover
over-allotments or to stabilize the price of the Series DD Senior Notes, the
Underwriters may bid for, and purchase, Series DD Senior Notes in the open
market. The Underwriters may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an
Underwriter or dealer for distributing Series DD Senior Notes in the offering,
if the Underwriters repurchase previously distributed Series DD Senior Notes in
transactions to cover short positions, in stabilization transactions or
otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of
the Series DD Senior Notes above independent market levels. The Underwriters are
not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities
at any time without notice.
 
     In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to
reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than
it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid
might also have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it were
to discourage resales of the security.
 
     Neither the Company nor the Underwriters make any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions
described above may have on the price of the Series DD Senior Notes. In
addition, neither the Company nor the Underwriters make any representation that
the Underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions once
commenced will not be discontinued without notice.
 
     Certain of the Underwriters and their affiliates have engaged and may in
the future engage in transactions with, and, from time to time, have performed
and may perform investment banking and/or commercial banking services for, the
Company and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business, for which they
have received and will receive customary compensation.
 
     Certain of the Underwriters will make the Series DD Senior Notes available
for distribution on the Internet through a proprietary Web site and/or a
third-party system operated by MarketAxess Corporation, an Internet-based
communications technology provider. MarketAxess Corporation is providing the
system as a conduit for communications between certain of the Underwriters and
their customers and is not a party to any transactions. MarketAxess Corporation,
a registered broker-dealer, will receive compensation from certain of the
Underwriters based on transactions conducted through the system. Certain of the
Underwriters will make the Series DD Senior Notes available to its customers
through the Internet distributions, whether made through a proprietary or third
party system, on the same terms as distributions made through other channels.
