                                    AWG Plc
                   Anglian Water - Interim Determination of K

Anglian Water Services Limited, part of AWG Plc, has notified Ofwat of its
intention to apply for an Interim Determination of K (IDOK).

If successful, this will allow the company to increase prices in real terms in
2004/5. Ofwat will issue a draft decision for consultation in November and a
final decision in December this year.

The application, which is provided for in Condition B of its operating licence,
primarily relates to Changes to the Notified Index (related to construction
costs) and sewer flooding.

The application will seek an amendment to the company's K factor for the
financial year 2004/5, such that it may increase prices from 1 April 2004 to
compensate for additional operating and capital costs in relation to these
items.
