Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Represents the noncurrent portion of deferred tax liabilities and the reserve for accumulated deferred investment tax credits as of the balance sheet date, which result from applying the applicable tax rate to net taxable temporary differences pertaining to each jurisdiction to which the entity is obligated to pay income tax. A noncurrent taxable temporary difference is a difference between the tax basis and the carrying amount of a noncurrent asset or liability in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In a classified statement of financial position, an enterprise shall separate deferred tax liabilities and assets into a current amount and a noncurrent amount. Deferred tax liabilities and assets shall be classified as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting. A deferred tax liability or asset that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting, including deferred tax assets related to carryforwards, shall be classified according to the expected reversal date of the temporary difference. This is the remaining investment credit, which will reduce the cost of services collected from ratepayers by a ratable portion over the investment's regulatory life. No definition available.

CECONY is a subsidiary of Con Edison and as such its financial condition and results of operations and cash flows, which are presented separately in the CECONY consolidated financial statements, are also consolidated, along with those of Con Edison's other utility subsidiary, Orange and Rockland Utilities, Inc. (O&R), and Con Edison's competitive energy businesses (discussed below) in Con Edison's consolidated financial statements. The term "Utilities" is used in these notes to refer to CECONY and O&R. As used in these notes, the term "Companies" refers to Con Edison and CECONY and, except as otherwise noted, the information in these combined notes relates to each of the Companies. However, CECONY makes no representation as to information relating to Con Edison or the subsidiaries of Con Edison other than itself. The separate interim consolidated financial statements of each of the Companies are unaudited but, in the opinion of their respective managements, reflect all adjustments (which include only normally recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The Companies' separate interim consolidated financial statements should be read together with their separate audited financial statements (including the combined notes thereto) included in Item 8 of their combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the Form 10-K) and their separate unaudited financial statements (including the combined notes thereto) included in Part I, Item 1 of their combined Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010 (the First Quarter Form 10-Q). Information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Form 10-K and the First Quarter Form 10-Q referred to in these notes is incorporated by reference herein. The use of terms such as "see" or "refer to" shall be deemed to incorporate by reference into these notes the information to which reference is made. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Consistent with current industry practice, the Companies are presenting income tax expense as one item on their consolidated income statements (instead of separate items in the operating income and other income sections of the consolidated income statements). Con Edison has two regulated utility subsidiaries: CECONY and O&R. CECONY provides electric service and gas service in New York City and Westchester County. The company also provides steam service in parts of Manhattan. O&R, along with its regulated utility subsidiaries, provides electric service in southeastern New York and adjacent areas of northern New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania and gas service in southeastern New York and adjacent areas of eastern Pennsylvania. Con Edison has the following competitive energy businesses: Consolidated Edison Solutions, Inc. (Con Edison Solutions), a retail energy services company that sells electricity and also offers energy-related services; Consolidated Edison Energy, Inc. (Con Edison Energy), a wholesale energy supply and services company; and Consolidated Edison Development, Inc. (Con Edison Development), a company that develops and participates in infrastructure projects. |

Regulatory Matters |
Note B — Regulatory Matters Reference is made to "Accounting Policies" in Note A and "Rate Agreements" in Note B to the financial statements included in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note B to the financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q. Rate Agreements O&R — Electric In July 2010, O&R filed a request with the New York State Public Service Commission (NYSPSC) for an increase in the rates it charges for electric service rendered in New York, effective July 2011, of $61.7 million. The filing reflects a return on common equity of 11 percent and a common equity ratio of 49.9 percent. Among other things, the filing proposes continuation of the current provisions with respect to recovery from customers of the cost of purchased power and with respect to the deferral of differences between actual expenses allocable to the electric business for pensions and other postretirement benefits, environmental, research and developmental cost to the amounts for such costs reflected in electric rates. The filing also includes an alternative proposal for a three-year electric rate plan with annual rate increases of $47.1 million effective July 2011, and $33.2 million effective July 2012 and 2013. The multi-year filing reflects a return on common equity of 11.55 percent. In May 2010, Rockland Electric Company (a regulated utility subsidiary of O&R) (RECO), the Division of Rate Counsel, Staff of the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) and certain other parties entered into a stipulation of settlement with respect to the company's August 2009 request to increase the rates that it can charge its customers for electric delivery service. The stipulation, which was approved by the Board of the NJBPU, provides for an electric rate increase, effective May 17, 2010, of $9.8 million. The stipulation reflects a return on common equity of 10.3 percent and a common equity ratio of approximately 50 percent. The stipulation continues current provisions with respect to recovery from customers of the cost of purchased power and does not provide for reconciliation of actual expenses to amounts reflected in electric rates for pension and other postretirement benefit costs. CECONY — Gas In May 2010, CECONY, the staff of the NYSPSC and other parties entered into a Joint Proposal, with respect to the company's rates for gas delivery service. The Joint Proposal, which is subject to NYSPSC approval, covers the three-year period October 2010 through September 2013 and provides for gas base rate increases of $47.1 million, $47.9 million and $46.7 million, effective October 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The Joint Proposal reflects the following major items:
CECONY — Steam In May 2010, CECONY, the NYSPSC staff and other parties entered into a Joint Proposal, with respect to the company's rates for steam service. The Joint Proposal, which is subject to NYSPSC approval, covers the three-year period October 2010 through September 2013 and provides for rate increases of $49.5 million, effective October 2010 and 2011, and $17.8 million, effective October 2012, with an additional $31.7 million to be collected through a surcharge in the rate year ending September 2013. The Joint Proposal reflects the following major items:
Other Regulatory Matters In February 2009, the NYSPSC commenced a proceeding to examine the prudence of certain CECONY expenditures (see "Investigation of Contractor Payments" in Note H). Pursuant to NYSPSC orders, a portion of the company's revenues (effective April 2010, $249 million, $32 million and $6 million on an annual basis for electric, gas and steam service, respectively) is being collected subject to potential refund to customers. At June 30, 2010, the company had collected an estimated $394 million from customers subject to potential refund in connection with this proceeding. The company is unable to estimate the amount, if any, of any such refund and, accordingly, has not established a regulatory liability for a refund. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities Regulatory assets and liabilities at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were comprised of the following items:
"Net electric deferrals" in June 2010 represent the remaining unamortized balance of certain regulatory assets and liabilities of CECONY that were combined effective April 1, 2010 and are being amortized to income, in accordance with CECONY's April 2010 rate plan. At December 2009, "net electric deferrals" represented the remaining unamortized balance of certain regulatory assets and liabilities of CECONY that were combined effective April 1, 2005 and were amortized to income in accordance with CECONY's April 2009 rate plan through March 2010. |

Long-Term Debt | Note C — Long-Term Debt Reference is made to Note C to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note C to the financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q. In June 2010, CECONY issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of 4.45 percent debentures, Series 2010 A, due 2020 and $350 million aggregate principal amount of 5.70 percent debentures, Series 2010 B, due 2040. In July 2010, O&R issued a notice to change the method used to determine the interest it is required to pay on its $55 million Series 1994 A tax-exempt debt. The debt (which currently bears a variable rate, determined weekly) is subject to mandatory tender for purchase in August 2010. O&R expects to fund the payment of the purchase price for the debt either from the proceeds of the reoffering of the debt (with a fixed interest rate) or, if O&R determines to have the debt cancelled, the sale of other debt securities. |

Pension Benefits | Note E — Pension Benefits Reference is made to Note E to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note E to the financial statement in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q.
Net Periodic Benefit Cost The components of the Companies' net periodic benefit costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:
Expected Contributions Based on estimates as of December 31, 2009, the Companies are not required under funding regulations and laws to make any contributions to the pension plan during 2010. The Companies' policy is to fund their accounting cost to the extent tax deductible, therefore, Con Edison expects to make discretionary contributions in 2010 of $434 million, including $397 million for CECONY (of which CECONY contributed $279 million in the first six months of 2010). During the first six months of 2009, CECONY contributed $184 million to the pension plan. During the second quarter of 2010, the Companies funded $25 million for the non-qualified supplemental pension plans. The Companies are continuing to monitor changes to funding and tax laws that may impact future pension plan funding requirements. |

Other Postretirement Benefits | Note F — Other Postretirement Benefits Reference is made to Note F to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note F to the financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q.
Net Periodic Benefit Cost The components of the Companies' net periodic postretirement benefit costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:
Health Care Reform In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 became law. The Companies are assessing the impact of these laws. In the first half of 2010, the Companies reduced their deferred tax asset to reflect the laws' repeal, effective 2013, of the deduction for federal income tax purposes of the portion of the cost of an employer's retiree prescription drug coverage for which the employer received a benefit under the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (see Note F to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K). For CECONY, the reductions in its deferred tax asset of $33 million had no effect on net income because a regulatory asset in a like amount on a pre-tax basis was established to reflect future recovery from customers of the increased cost of its retiree prescription drug coverage resulting from the loss of the tax deduction. For O&R's New York electric and gas services the reductions in their deferred tax assets of $3 million had no effect on net income because a regulatory asset in a like amount on a pre-tax basis was established to reflect future recovery from customers of the increased cost of their retiree prescription drug coverage resulting from the loss of the tax deduction. For RECO and Pike County Light & Power Company (Pike), the reduction in their deferred tax assets of $1 million was taken as a charge to net income. The impact on Con Edison's deferred tax assets for its other businesses was not material to its results of operations. |

Environmental Matters | Note G — Environmental Matters
Superfund Sites Hazardous substances, such as asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and coal tar, have been used or generated in the course of operations of the Utilities and their predecessors and are present at sites and in facilities and equipment they currently or previously owned, including sites at which gas was manufactured or stored. The Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 and similar state statutes (Superfund) impose joint and several liability, regardless of fault, upon generators of hazardous substances for investigation and remediation costs (which include costs of demolition, removal, disposal, storage, replacement, containment, and monitoring) and natural resource damages. Liability under these laws can be material and may be imposed for contamination from past acts, even though such past acts may have been lawful at the time they occurred. The sites at which the Utilities have been asserted to have liability under these laws, including their manufactured gas plant sites and any neighboring areas to which contamination may have migrated, are referred to herein as "Superfund Sites."
For Superfund Sites where there are other potentially responsible parties and the Utilities are not managing the site investigation and remediation, the accrued liability represents an estimate of the amount the Utilities will need to pay to discharge their related obligations. For Superfund Sites (including the manufactured gas plant sites) for which one of the Utilities is managing the investigation and remediation, the accrued liability represents an estimate of the company's share of undiscounted cost to investigate the sites and, for sites that have been investigated in whole or in part, the cost to remediate the sites, if remediation is necessary and if a reasonable estimate of such cost can be made. Remediation costs are estimated in light of the information available, applicable remediation standards, and experience with similar sites. The accrued liabilities and regulatory assets related to Superfund Sites at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were as follows:
Most of the accrued Superfund Site liability relates to sites that have been investigated, in whole or in part. However, for many of the sites, the extent and associated cost of the required remediation has not yet been determined. As investigations progress and information pertaining to the required remediation becomes available, the Utilities expect that additional liability will be accrued, the amount of which is not presently determinable but may be material. Under their current rate agreements, the Utilities are permitted to recover or defer as regulatory assets (for subsequent recovery through rates) certain site investigation and remediation costs. Insurance recoveries related to Superfund Sites for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 were immaterial. There were no insurance recoveries received related to Superfund Sites for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. Environmental remediation costs incurred related to Superfund Sites during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:
In 2006, CECONY estimated that for its manufactured gas plant sites, its aggregate undiscounted potential liability for the investigation and remediation of coal tar and/or other manufactured gas plant-related environmental contaminants could range up to $1.1 billion. In 2007, O&R estimated that for its manufactured gas plant sites, each of which has been investigated, the aggregate undiscounted potential liability for the remediation of such contaminants could range up to $115 million. These estimates were based on the assumption that there is contamination at the sites that have not yet been investigated and additional assumptions about these and the other sites regarding the extent of contamination and the type and extent of remediation that may be required. Actual experience may be materially different. Asbestos Proceedings Suits have been brought in New York State and federal courts against the Utilities and many other defendants, wherein a large number of plaintiffs sought large amounts of compensatory and punitive damages for deaths and injuries allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos at various premises of the Utilities. The suits that have been resolved, which are many, have been resolved without any payment by the Utilities, or for amounts that were not, in the aggregate, material to them. The amounts specified in all the remaining thousands of suits total billions of dollars; however, the Utilities believe that these amounts are greatly exaggerated, based on the disposition of previous claims. In 2008, CECONY estimated that its aggregate undiscounted potential liability for these suits and additional suits that may be brought over the next 15 years is $9 million. The estimate was based upon a combination of modeling, historical data analysis and risk factor assessment. Actual experience may be materially different. In addition, certain current and former employees have claimed or are claiming workers' compensation benefits based on alleged disability from exposure to asbestos. Under its current rate agreements, CECONY is permitted to defer as regulatory assets (for subsequent recovery through rates) costs incurred for its asbestos lawsuits and workers' compensation claims. The accrued liability for asbestos suits and workers' compensation proceedings (including those related to asbestos exposure) and the amounts deferred as regulatory assets for the Companies at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were as follows:

Other Material Contingencies | Note H — Other Material Contingencies
Manhattan Steam Main Rupture In July 2007, a CECONY steam main located in midtown Manhattan ruptured. It has been reported that one person died and others were injured as a result of the incident. Several buildings in the area were damaged. Debris from the incident included dirt and mud containing asbestos. The response to the incident required the closing of several buildings and streets for various periods. Approximately 100 suits are pending against the company seeking generally unspecified compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages, for personal injury, property damage and business interruption. The company has not accrued a liability for the suits. The company has notified its insurers of the incident and believes that the policies in force at the time of the incident will cover most of the company's costs, which the company is unable to estimate, but which could be substantial, to satisfy its liability to others in connection with the incident.
Investigation of Contractor Payments In January 2009, CECONY commenced an internal investigation relating to the arrests of certain employees and retired employees (all of whom have since pleaded guilty) for accepting kickbacks from contractors that performed construction work for the company. The company has retained a law firm, which has retained an accounting firm, to assist in the company's investigation. The company is providing information to governmental authorities, which consider the company to be a victim of unlawful conduct, in connection with their investigation of the arrested employees and contractors. The company has terminated its employment of the arrested employees and its contracts with the contractors (one of which is suing the company for substantial damages claiming wrongful termination). In February 2009, the NYSPSC commenced a proceeding that, among other things, will examine the prudence of certain of the company's expenditures relating to the arrests and consider whether additional expenditures should also be examined (see "Other Regulatory Matters" in Note B). The company, based upon its evaluation of its internal controls for 2009 and previous years, believes that the controls were effective to provide reasonable assurance that its financial statements have been fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Because the company's investigation is ongoing, the company is unable to predict the impact of any of the employees' unlawful conduct on the company's internal controls, business, results of operations or financial position. Permit Non-Compliance and Pollution Discharges In March 2009, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) issued a proposed administrative Order on Consent to CECONY with respect to non-compliance with certain laws, regulations and permit conditions and discharges of pollutants at the company's steam generating facilities. The proposed order effectively instituted a civil enforcement proceeding against the company. In the proposed order, the NYSDEC is seeking, among other things, the company's agreement to pay a penalty in an amount the NYSDEC did not specify, retain an independent consultant to conduct a comprehensive audit of the company's generating facilities to determine compliance with federal and New York State environmental laws and regulations and recommend best practices, remove all equipment containing polychlorinated biphenyls from the company's steam and electric facilities, remediate polychlorinated biphenyl contamination, install certain wastewater treatment facilities, and comply with additional sampling, monitoring, and training requirements. In March 2010, the NYSDEC issued a revised proposed consent order specifying the amount of penalty the NYSDEC is seeking at $10.8 million. The company will seek to resolve this matter through negotiations with the NYSDEC. It is unable to predict the impact of this matter on the company's operations or the additional costs, which could be substantial, to comply with the requirements resulting from this matter. In January 2010, the NYSDEC issued a proposed administrative Order on Consent to CECONY relating to discharges of pollutants, reported by the company to the NYSDEC from 2002 through 2009, into the storm sewer system at a property the company owns in the Astoria section of New York on which the company is permitted by the NYSDEC to operate a hazardous waste storage facility. In April 2010, the NYSDEC issued an order, to which CECONY consented, pursuant to which CECONY paid a $1.1 million penalty and undertake a corrective action plan that will require the company to incur an estimated $12 million of capital expenditures. In June 2010, the NYSDEC issued a proposed consent order relating to the release of oil into the Bronx River resulting from a November 2009 transformer fire at the company's Dunwoodie electric substation. In July 2010, the NYSDEC issued an order, to which CECONY consented, pursuant to which CECONY will pay a penalty and other amounts totaling $0.7 million. Lease In/Lease Out Transactions
In each of 1997 and 1999, Con Edison Development entered into a transaction in which it leased property and then immediately subleased it back to the lessor (termed "Lease In/Lease Out," or LILO transactions). The transactions respectively involve electric generating and gas distribution facilities in the Netherlands, with a total investment of $259 million. The transactions were financed with $93 million of equity and $166 million of non-recourse, long-term debt secured by the underlying assets. In accordance with the accounting rules for leases, Con Edison is accounting for the two LILO transactions as leveraged leases. Accordingly, the company's investment in these leases, net of non-recourse debt, is carried as a single amount in Con Edison's consolidated balance sheet and income is recognized pursuant to a method that incorporates a level rate of return for those years when net investment in the lease is positive, based upon the after-tax cash flows projected at the inception of the leveraged leases. The company's investment in these leveraged leases was $(33) million at June 30, 2010 and $(24) million at December 31, 2009 and is comprised of a $235 million gross investment less $268 million deferred tax liabilities at June 30, 2010 and $235 million gross investment less $259 million of deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2009. On audit of Con Edison's tax return for 1997, the IRS disallowed the tax losses in connection with the 1997 LILO transaction. In December 2005, Con Edison paid a $0.3 million income tax deficiency asserted by the IRS for the tax year 1997 with respect to the 1997 LILO transaction. In April 2006, the company paid interest of $0.2 million associated with the deficiency and commenced an action in the United States Court of Federal Claims, entitled Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. v. United States, to obtain a refund of this tax payment and interest. A trial was completed in November 2007. In October 2009, the court issued a decision in favor of the company concluding that the 1997 LILO transaction was, in substance, a true lease that possessed economic substance, the loans relating to the lease constituted bona fide indebtedness, and the deductions for the 1997 LILO transactions claimed by the company in its 1997 federal income tax return are allowable. The IRS is entitled to appeal the decision.
In connection with its audit of Con Edison's federal income tax returns for 1998 through 2007, the IRS disallowed $416 million of net tax deductions taken with respect to both of the LILO transactions for the tax years. Con Edison is pursuing administrative appeals of these audit level disallowances. In connection with its audit of Con Edison's federal income tax return for 2008, the IRS has disallowed $42 million of net tax deductions taken with respect to both of the LILO transactions. When this audit level disallowance becomes appealable, Con Edison intends to file an appeal of the disallowance. Con Edison believes that its LILO transactions have been correctly reported, and has not recorded any reserve with respect to the disallowance of tax losses, or related interest, in connection with its LILO transactions. Con Edison's estimated tax savings, reflected in its financial statements, from the two LILO transactions through June 30, 2010, in the aggregate, was $213 million. If Con Edison were required to repay all or a portion of these amounts, it would also be required to pay interest of up to $71 million net of tax at June 30, 2010. Pursuant to the accounting rules for leveraged lease transactions, the expected timing of income tax cash flows generated by Con Edison's LILO transactions are required to be reviewed at least annually. If the expected timing of the cash flows is revised, the rate of return and the allocation of income would be recalculated from the inception of the LILO transactions, and the company would be required to recalculate the accounting effect of the LILO transactions, which would result in a charge to earnings that could have a material adverse effect on the company's results of operations. Guarantees Con Edison and its subsidiaries enter into various agreements providing financial or performance assurance primarily to third parties on behalf of their subsidiaries. Maximum amounts guaranteed by Con Edison totaled $880 million and $929 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
A summary, by type (described in Note H to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K) and term, of Con Edison's total guarantees at June 30, 2010 is as follows:

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Note J — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Under the accounting rules for derivatives and hedging, derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value, unless an exception is available under the accounting rules. Certain qualifying derivative contracts have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales contracts. These contracts are not reported at fair value under the accounting rules. Energy Price Hedging Con Edison's subsidiaries hedge market price fluctuations associated with physical purchases and sales of electricity, natural gas, and steam by using derivative instruments including futures, forwards, basis swaps, options, transmission congestion contracts and financial transmission rights contracts. The fair values of these hedges at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were as follows:
Credit Exposure The Companies are exposed to credit risk related to transactions entered into primarily for the various energy supply and hedging activities by the Utilities and the competitive energy businesses. The Companies use credit policies to manage this risk, including an established credit approval process, monitoring of counterparty limits, netting provisions within agreements, collateral or prepayment arrangements, credit insurance and credit default swaps. At June 30, 2010, Con Edison and CECONY had $173 million and $19 million of credit exposure in connection with energy supply and hedging activities, net of collateral, respectively. Con Edison's net credit exposure consisted of $116 million with investment-grade counterparties, and $57 million primarily with commodity exchange brokers or independent system operators. CECONY's entire net credit exposure was with commodity exchange brokers. Economic Hedges The Companies enter into certain derivative instruments that do not qualify or are not designated as hedges under the accounting rules for derivatives and hedging. However, management believes these instruments represent economic hedges that mitigate exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices.
The fair values of the Companies' commodity derivatives at June 30, 2010 were:
The fair value of the Companies' commodity derivatives at December 31, 2009 were:
The Utilities generally recover all of their prudently incurred fuel, purchased power and gas costs, including hedging gains and losses, in accordance with rate provisions approved by the applicable state utility commissions. See "Recoverable Energy Costs" in Note A to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. In accordance with the accounting rules for regulated operations, the Utilities record a regulatory asset or liability to defer recognition of unrealized gains and losses on their electric and gas derivatives. As gains and losses are realized in future periods, they will be recognized as purchased power, gas and fuel costs in the Companies' consolidated income statements. Con Edison's competitive energy businesses record realized and unrealized gains and losses on their derivative contracts in earnings in the reporting period in which they occur.
The following table presents the changes in the fair values of commodity derivatives that have been deferred or recognized in earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010:
The following table presents the changes in the fair values of commodity derivatives that have been deferred or recognized in earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009:
As of June 30, 2010, Con Edison had 1,422 contracts, including 677 CECONY contracts, which were considered to be derivatives under the accounting rules for derivatives and hedging (excluding qualifying derivative contracts, which have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales contracts). The following table presents the number of contracts by commodity type:
The Companies also enter into electric congestion and gas basis swap contracts to hedge the congestion and transportation charges which are associated with electric and gas contracts and hedged volumes. The collateral requirements associated with, and settlement of, derivative transactions are included in net cash flows from operating activities in the Companies' consolidated statement of cash flows. Most derivative instrument contracts contain provisions that may require the Companies to provide collateral on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The amount of collateral to be provided will depend on the fair value of the derivative instruments and the Companies' credit ratings.
The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that are in a net liability position and collateral posted at June 30, 2010, and the additional collateral that would have been required to be posted had the lowest applicable credit rating been reduced one level and to below investment grade were:
Interest Rate Swaps O&R has an interest rate swap related to its Series 1994A Debt. See Note C to the financial statement in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. O&R pays a fixed-rate of 6.09 percent and receives a LIBOR-based variable rate. The fair value of this interest rate swap at June 30, 2010 was an unrealized loss of $12 million, which has been included in Con Edison's consolidated balance sheet as a noncurrent liability/fair value of derivative liabilities and a regulatory asset. There was no material change in the fair value of the swap for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. In the event O&R's credit rating was downgraded to BBB- or lower by Standard & Poor's Rating Services or Baa3 or lower by Moody's Investors Service, the swap counterparty could elect to terminate the agreement and, if it did so, the parties would then be required to settle the transaction. |

Fair Value Measurements | Note K — Fair Value Measurements Effective January 1, 2010, the Companies adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements," except as discussed in the following paragraph. This update requires the Companies to disclose significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. The guidance also clarifies level of disaggregation and disclosure requirements about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements and the meaning of a class of assets and liabilities. In addition, the update requires the Companies to present information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). This disclosure is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The accounting rules for fair value measurements and disclosures established a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value in three broad levels. The rules require that assets and liabilities be classified in their entirety based on the level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assessing the significance of a particular input may require judgment considering factors specific to the asset or liability, and may affect the valuation of the asset or liability and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. See Note P to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for how the Companies classify fair value balances based on the fair value hierarchy. The valuation technique used by the Companies with regard to commodity derivatives and other assets that fall into either Level 2 or Level 3 is the market approach, which uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The valuation technique used by the Companies with regard to the interest rate contract that falls into Level 3 is the income approach which uses valuation techniques to convert future income stream amounts to a single amount in present value terms.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2010 are summarized below.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2009 are summarized below.
The table listed below provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending net balances for assets and liabilities measured at fair value for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy:
For the Utilities, realized gains and losses on Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities are reported as part of purchased power, gas and fuel costs. The Utilities generally recover these costs in accordance with rate provisions approved by the applicable state public utilities commissions. See Note A to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. Unrealized gains and losses for commodity derivatives are generally deferred on the consolidated balance sheet in accordance with the accounting rules for regulated operations. For the competitive energy businesses, realized and unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities are reported in non-utility revenues ($27 million loss and $39 million loss) and purchased power costs ($49 million gain and $1 million loss) on the consolidated income statement for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities are reported in non-utility revenues ($33 million gain and $53 million loss) and purchased power costs ($40 million loss and $1 million loss) on the consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The change in fair value relating to Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities held at June 30, 2010 is included in non-utility revenues ($45 million loss) and purchased power costs ($64 million gain) on the consolidated income statement for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, the change in fair value relating to Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities included in non-utility revenues was an $11 million gain and was immaterial in purchased power costs. The change in fair value relating to Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities held at June 30, 2010 is included in non-utility revenues ($1 million gain) and purchased power costs ($7 million loss) on the consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the change in fair value relating to Level 3 commodity derivative assets and liabilities included in non-utility revenues was a $1 million loss and was immaterial in purchased power costs. For the Utilities, realized and unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 other assets and liabilities were immaterial for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and a $5 million gain, which is reported in investment and other income on the consolidated income statement, for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 other assets and liabilities were immaterial for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and a $3 million gain, which is reported in investment and other income on the consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30 2009. |

Variable Interest Entities | Note L — Variable Interest Entities Reference is made to Notes Q and T to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note L to the financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q. Effective January 1, 2010, the Companies adopted ASU No. 2009-17, "Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities." The Companies have not identified any interests they have in any variable interest entity (VIE) that would require the Companies to include the accounts of the VIE in the Companies' consolidated financial statements. In the second quarter of 2010, CECONY again requested from five potential VIEs (Sithe/Independence Power Partners, LP, Cogen Technologies Linden Venture, LP, Selkirk Cogen Partners, LP, Brooklyn Navy Yard Cogeneration Partners, LP, and Indeck Energy Services of Corinth, Inc.), with which CECONY has long-term electricity purchase agreements, the information necessary to determine whether the entity is a VIE and whether CECONY is its primary beneficiary. The information was not made available. CECONY also has a long-term electricity purchase agreement with Astoria Energy, LLC (Astoria Energy). CECONY has determined that Astoria Energy is a VIE, and that CECONY is not its primary beneficiary since CECONY does not have the power to direct the activities that CECONY believes most significantly impact the economic performance of Astoria Energy. In particular, CECONY has not invested in, or guaranteed the indebtedness of, Astoria Energy and CECONY does not operate or maintain Astoria Energy's generating facilities. CECONY's significant involvement with the entities with which it entered into long-term electricity purchase agreements is CECONY's purchase of energy and capacity under the agreements, as to which CECONY's maximum exposure to the entities is limited pursuant to the agreements. For information about the agreements, see Note I to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. |

- Definition
Carrying amount as of the balance sheet date of capitalized costs of regulated entities that are expected to be recovered through revenue sources within one year or the normal operating cycle, if longer. Such costs are capitalized if they meet both of the following criteria: a. It is probable that future revenue in an amount at least equal to the capitalized cost will result from inclusion of that cost in allowable costs for rate-making purposes. b. Based on available evidence, the future revenue will be provided to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost rather than to provide for expected levels of similar future costs. If the revenue will be provided through an automatic rate-adjustment clause, this criterion requires that the regulator's intent clearly be to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost.

Unsecured short-term debt instrument issued by corporations which are highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three-years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef
