Ladies and Gentlemen:

         On behalf of the Registrant and the Co-Registrants we transmit herewith
for filing in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, an
Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration
Statement") relating to the Registrant's $190,000,000 aggregate principal amount
8 1/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the "Notes") and guarantees of such Notes
by the above-named Co-Registrants, each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Registrant. The Registrant previously transferred the required filing fee to
the account of the Securities and Exchange Commission at the U.S. Treasury
designated lockbox depository at Mellon Bank on December 23, 2004 in connection
with the Registrant's initial filing of the Registration Statement on Form S-4.

         The securities covered by the Registration Statement will be issued in
an exchange offer to be conducted by the Registrant and the Co-Registrants. A
letter from the Registrant indicating its reliance on the no-action letters
issued to Exxon Capital Holding Corporation (publicly available April 13, 1989),
Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. (publicly available June 5, 1991) and Shearman &
Sterling (publicly available July 2, 1993) was submitted on December 23, 2004 in
connection with the Registrant's initial filing of the Registration Statement on
Form S-4.
