Items 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9 are not included because they are inapplicable.

Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Edison International has the responsibility, at least annually,
to recommend to the Board of Directors the appointment of Edison International's independent public accountants.
The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee have the ultimate authority and responsibility to select,
evaluate, and, where appropriate, replace the independent public accountants, who are ultimately accountable to
the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee.  On May 8, 2002, following a recommendation from the Audit
Committee, the Board of Directors decided to no longer engage Arthur Andersen LLP ("Andersen") as Edison
International's independent public accountants, and appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as Edison
International's independent public accountants for the balance of 2002.  The decision to change auditors is not a
reflection of Andersen's capabilities, commitment, or quality of service to Edison International.  During
Andersen's long relationship with Edison International, the Andersen audit teams exhibited the highest degree of
professionalism and quality service.

Andersen's reports on Edison International's consolidated financial statements for each of the years ended 2001
and 2000 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except for Andersen's 2001 report, which includes an
explanatory paragraph with respect to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and the adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets."

During Edison International's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Report on Form 8-K, there
were no disagreements with Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Andersen's satisfaction, would have caused
them to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their reports on Edison International's
consolidated financial statements for those years; and there were no reportable events, as listed in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Edison International provided Andersen with a copy of the foregoing disclosures.  Attached as Exhibit 16 is a
copy of Andersen's letter, dated May 10, 2002, stating its agreement with the foregoing disclosures.

During Edison International's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Report on Form 8-K,
Edison International did not consult PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP with respect to the application of accounting
principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be
rendered on Edison International's consolidated financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events
listed in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
