The following information relates primarily to Pinnacle West Capital Corporation (the "Company") and its principal subsidiary, Arizona Public Service Company ("APS").
ITEM 5. Other Events
As previously reported, on March 21, 1994 the Secretary of Labor issued a final order approving a settlement agreement between APS and a former contract employee who had raised a U.S. Department of Labor claim. See "Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station" in Part II, Item 5 in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1994. On May 19, 1994 the Secretary of Labor rescinded the order of March 21, 1994 and remanded the matter to the responsible Administrative Law Judges ordering them to submit new recommended orders (i) clarifying specifically the scope of the settlement agreement and (ii) clarifying the extent to which any claims by the former contract employee remain unresolved by the settlement agreement. APS currently expects that the settlement agreement, as originally approved, will ultimately be approved by the Secretary of Labor.
