                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    Verizon West Virginia Inc., formerly Bell Atlantic - West Virginia, Inc., is
a wholly owned subsidiary of Bell Atlantic Corporation (d/b/a Verizon
Communications). The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have
been prepared based upon Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules that
permit reduced disclosure for interim periods.  These financial statements
include certain reclassifications in presentation as a result of the merger of
Bell Atlantic Corporation (Bell Atlantic) and GTE Corporation (GTE) (see Note
2).  These financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a
fair presentation of results of operations and financial position for the
interim periods shown including normal recurring accruals and other items (see
Note 2). The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results for the full year.  For a more complete discussion of significant
accounting policies and certain other information, you should refer to the
financial statements included in our 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

2.  Bell Atlantic - GTE Merger

    On June 30, 2000, Bell Atlantic and GTE completed a merger of equals under a
definitive merger agreement dated as of July 27, 1998.  Under the terms of the
agreement, GTE became a wholly owned subsidiary of Bell Atlantic.  With the
closing of the merger, the combined company began doing business as Verizon
Communications.  The merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests.

Merger-Related and Severance Costs

    Results of operations for June 30, 2000 included merger-related pre-tax
costs totaling approximately $7,049,000, consisting of $3,371,000 for direct
incremental costs, $3,275,000 for employee severance costs and $403,000 for
transition costs. These costs include approximately $6,066,000 representing our
allocated share of merger-related costs from Verizon Services Corp. (Verizon
Services), an affiliate that provides centralized services on a contract basis.
Costs allocated from Verizon Services are included in Operations and Support -
Other Operating Expenses.

    Direct incremental costs consist of our proportionate share of expenses
associated with completing the merger transaction such as professional and
regulatory fees, compensation arrangements and shareowner-related costs.
Employee severance costs, as recorded under SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits," represent our proportionate share of benefit costs
for the separation of management employees who are entitled to benefits under
pre-existing Verizon Communications separation pay plans.  The separations are
expected to occur as a result of consolidations and process enhancements.
Accrued postemployment benefit liabilities for those employees are included in
our balance sheet as a component of Employee Benefit Obligations.  Transition
costs consist of our proportionate share of costs associated with integrating
the operations of Bell Atlantic and GTE.  Transition costs are expensed as
incurred.

3.  DIVIDEND

    On August 1, 2000, we declared and paid a dividend in the amount of
$26,000,000 to Verizon Communications.

4.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

FASB Accounting Standards - Derivatives and Hedging Activities

    In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."  This statement requires that
all derivatives be measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or
liabilities on our balance sheet.  Changes in the fair values of derivative
instruments will be recognized in either earnings or comprehensive income,
depending on the designated use and effectiveness of the instruments.  The FASB
amended this pronouncement in June 1999 to defer the effective date of SFAS No.
133 for one year.  We must adopt SFAS No. 133 no later than January 1, 2001.

                                       5
<PAGE>

                          Verizon West Virginia Inc.

    In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," which amended SFAS No.
133. The amendments in SFAS No. 138 address certain implementation issues and
relate to such matters as the normal purchases and normal sales exception, the
definition of interest rate risk, hedging recognized foreign-currency-
denominated assets and liabilities, and intercompany derivatives. SFAS No. 138
also amends SFAS No. 133 for decisions made by the FASB relating to the
Derivatives Implementation Group process.

    We are currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138.
The impact of adoption will be determined by several factors, including the
specific hedging instruments in place and their relationships to hedged items,
as well as market conditions at the date of adoption.

FASB Interpretation - Stock Compensation

    In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for
Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation." Interpretation No. 44 was
issued in order to clarify certain issues arising from Accounting Principles
Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," which was
previously issued in October 1972. Interpretation No. 44 is effective July 1,
2000, but certain conclusions cover specific events that occur either after
December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000.

    The main issues addressed by Interpretation No. 44 are: (a) the definition
of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the
accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously
fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination.

    Interpretation No. 44 will not have a material impact on our results of
operations or financial position.

SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin - Revenue Recognition

    In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which must be adopted by the
fourth quarter of 2000.  SAB No. 101 provides additional guidance on revenue
recognition, as well as criteria for when revenue is generally realized and
earned, and also requires the deferral of incremental direct selling costs.  We
are currently assessing the impact of SAB No. 101 on our results of operations
and financial position.

      Net income and comprehensive income were the same for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    Various legal actions and regulatory proceedings are pending to which we are
a party.  We have established reserves for specific liabilities in connection
with regulatory and legal matters that we currently deem to be probable and
estimable.  We do not expect that the ultimate resolution of pending regulatory
and legal matters in future periods will have a material effect on our financial
condition, but it could have a material effect on our results of operations.

    Federal and state regulatory conditions to the merger include certain
commitments to, among other things, promote competition and the widespread
deployment of advanced services, while helping ensure that consumers continue to
receive high-quality, low cost telephone services. In some cases, there are
significant penalties associated with not meeting these commitments. The cost of
satisfying these commitments could have a significant impact on net income in
future periods. Over the remainder of 2000, based on preliminary estimates, the
cost of satisfying these commitments is likely to impact the net income of
Verizon Communications on a consolidated basis by approximately $275 to $325
million. The estimated impact on each operating telephone subsidiary is still
being assessed.

             (Abbreviated pursuant to General Instruction H(2).)

    This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and Notes to Financial Statements.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

    We reported net income of $58,667,000 for the six month period ended June
30, 2000, compared to net income of $58,195,000 for the same period in 1999.

    Our results for 2000 and 1999 were affected by special items.  The special
items in both periods include our allocated share of charges from Verizon
Services Corp. (Verizon Services).

    The following table shows how special items are reflected in our condensed
statements of income for each period:

   What follows is a further explanation of the nature of these special items.

Bell Atlantic - GTE Merger

    On June 30, 2000, Bell Atlantic and GTE completed a merger of equals under a
definitive merger agreement dated as of July 27, 1998.  Under the terms of the
agreement, GTE became a wholly owned subsidiary of Bell Atlantic.  With the
closing of the merger, the combined company began doing business as Verizon
Communications.  The merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests.

Merger-Related and Severance Costs

    Results of operations for June 30, 2000 included merger-related pre-tax
costs totaling approximately $7,049,000, consisting of $3,371,000 for direct
incremental costs, $3,275,000 for employee severance costs and $403,000 for
transition costs. These costs include approximately $6,066,000 representing our

costs consist of our proportionate share of costs associated with integrating
the operations of Bell Atlantic and GTE.  Transition costs are expensed as
incurred.

Regulatory Contingency

    In the second quarter of 2000, we recognized a charge for a regulatory
matter totaling $16,000. We recorded a reduction to operating revenue in the
amount of $12,000 and a charge to interest expense of $4,000. This matter
relates to a specific issue currently under investigation by federal regulatory
commissions. We believe that it is probable that the ultimate resolution of this
matter will result in refunds to our customers, including interest.

Other Charges and Special Items

    In the second quarter of 2000, we recorded other charges and special items
totaling approximately $4,992,000 in connection with consolidating operations
and combining organizations and for other nonrecurring items arising in the
quarter. These charges included costs for the write-off of accounts receivable,
legal contingencies and other miscellaneous items.


Bell Atlantic - NYNEX Merger

Merger-Related Costs

    In connection with the Bell Atlantic-NYNEX merger, which was completed in
August 1997, we recorded pre-tax merger-related transition costs of $737,000 in
the first six months of 1999.

    Transition costs consisted of our proportionate share of costs associated
with integrating the operations of Bell Atlantic and NYNEX, such as systems
modification costs and advertising and branding costs. Transition costs were
expensed as incurred.

    These and other items affecting the comparison of our results of operations
for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 are discussed in the
following sections.

LOCAL SERVICES

   2000 - 1999                                                     Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Six Months                                                  $5,863     3.2%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Local service revenues are earned from the provision of local exchange,
local private line, wire maintenance, voice messaging and value-added services.
Value-added services are a family of services that expand the utilization of the
network, including products such as Caller ID, Call Waiting and Return Call.
Local services also includes wholesale revenues from unbundled network element
(UNE) platforms, certain data transport revenues, and wireless interconnection
revenues.

    Local service revenues increased in the first six months of 2000 primarily
due to higher usage of our network facilities.  This growth was generated, in
part, by an increase in access lines in service of 3.9% from June 30, 1999.
Local service revenue growth in the first six months of 2000 also reflects
higher customer demand and usage of our data transport and digital services, as
well as our value-added services.  These increases in local services revenues
were partially offset by a reduction in revenues from the resale of access lines
and the provision of unbundled network elements to competitive local exchange
carriers.


NETWORK ACCESS SERVICES

   2000 - 1999                                                     Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Six Months                                                  $7,901   8.2%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Network access revenues are earned from end-user subscribers and from long
distance and other competing carriers who use our local exchange facilities to
provide services to their customers.  Switched access revenues are derived from
fixed and usage-based charges paid by carriers for access to our local network.
Special access revenues originate from carriers and end-users that buy dedicated
local exchange capacity to support their private networks.  End-user access
revenues are earned from our customers and from resellers who purchase dial-tone
services.

    Network access revenue growth in the first six months of 2000 was mainly
attributable to higher customer demand, as reflected by growth in access minutes
of use of 7.8% from the same period in 1999.  Volume growth also reflects a
continuing expansion of the business market, particularly for high capacity data
services.  In the first six months of 2000, demand for special access services
increased, reflecting a greater utilization of our network.  Higher network
usage by alternative providers of intrLATA toll services further contributed to
revenue growth this year.

    In addition, network access revenues included higher revenues received from
customers for the recovery of local number portability (LNP) costs.  LNP allows
customers to change local exchange carriers while maintaining their existing
telephone numbers.  In December 1998, the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) issued an order permitting us to recover costs incurred for LNP in the
form of monthly end-user charges for a five-year period beginning in March 1999.

    Revenue growth was partially offset by price reductions associated with a
federal price cap filing and other regulatory decisions.  The FCC regulates the
rates that we charge long distance carriers and end-user subscribers for
interstate access services. We are required to file new access rates with the
FCC each year.  In July 1999, we implemented interstate price decreases of
approximately $800,000 on an annual basis in connection with the FCC's Price Cap
Plan.  The rates included in our July 1999 filing were in effect through June
2000.  Interstate price decreases were $2,300,000 on an annual basis for the
period July 1998 through June 1999.  The rates include amounts necessary to
recover our contribution to the FCC's universal service fund which are subject
to adjustment every quarter due to potential increases or decreases in our
contribution to the fund.  Our contributions to the universal service fund are
included in Other Operating Expenses.  As a result of a U.S. Court of Appeals
decision last year, our contributions to the universal service fund were reduced
by approximately $2,100,000 annually beginning November 1, 1999, and our
interstate access rates were reduced accordingly because we will no longer have
to recover these contributions in our rates.   In addition, revenue was reduced
by a special charge for a contingency associated with a regulatory matter, as
described in the Results of Operations section.

LONG DISTANCE SERVICES

   2000 - 1999                                                     (Decrease)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Six Months                                                 $(1,214)    (7.7)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Long distance revenues are earned primarily from calls made to points
outside a customer's local calling area, but within our service area (intraLATA
toll). IntraLATA toll calls originate and terminate within the same LATA, but
generally cover a greater distance than a local call. These services are
regulated by the West Virginia Public Service Commission (PSC) except where they
cross-state lines. Other long distance services that we provide include 800
services and Wide Area Telephone Service (WATS).

    The decline in long distance revenues in the first six months of 2000 was
principally caused by the competitive effects of presubscription, which enables
customers to make intraLATA toll calls using a competing carrier without having
to dial an access code.  The negative effect of presubscription on long distance
revenues was partially mitigated by increased network access services for usage
of our network by alternative service providers.  In response to
presubscription, we have implemented customer win-back and retention initiatives
that include toll calling discount packages and product bundling offers. These
revenue reductions were partially offset by additional revenue generated by
higher calling volumes.


ANCILLARY SERVICES

   2000 -1999                                                      Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Six Months                                                   $384      2.1%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Our ancillary services include such services as billing and collections for
long distance carriers and affiliates, facilities rentals to affiliates and
nonaffiliates, collocation for competitive local exchange carriers, usage of
separately priced (unbundled) components of our network by competitive local
exchange carriers, public (coin) telephone, customer premises equipment (CPE)
and sales of materials and supplies to affiliates. Ancillary services revenues
also include fees paid by customers for nonpublication of telephone numbers and
multiple white page listings and fees paid by an affiliate for usage of our
directory listings.

    Ancillary services revenues increased in the first six months of 2000
primarily due to higher demand for CPE services provided to government customers
and higher facilities rental revenues received from affiliates. Revenue growth
was also attributable to higher payments received from competitive local
exchange carriers for interconnection of their networks with our network. These
increases were substantially offset by lower revenues from our billing and
collection services.

EMPLOYEE COSTS

   2000 - 1999                                                     (Decrease)

   Six Months                                                  $(4,012)   (8.5)%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Employee costs consist of salaries, wages and other employee compensation,
employee benefits and payroll taxes paid directly by us.  Similar costs incurred
by employees of Verizon Services, who provide centralized services on a contract
basis, are allocated to us and are included in Other Operating Expenses.

    Employee costs decreased in the first six months of 2000 primarily as a
result of lower pension and benefit costs and the effect of lower work force
levels.  The decline in pension and benefit costs was due to favorable pension
plan investment returns and changes in actuarial assumptions.  These factors
were partially offset by changes in certain plan provisions, including a
previously reported amendment to our management cash balance plan and a special
lump sum pension payment to management and associate retirees.

    These cost reductions were offset, in part, by merger-related costs recorded
in the second quarter of 2000, higher overtime payments and annual salary and
wage increases for management and associate employees.  As described in the
Results of Operations section, we recognized approximately $800,000 in benefit
costs for the separation of employees who are entitled to benefits under pre-
existing Verizon Communications separation pay plans.  We also recorded
approximately $183,000 for direct incremental merger-related costs associated
with compensation arrangements.  Merger-related costs associated with employees
of Verizon Services were allocated to us and are included in other operation
expenses

    Associate employees' wages, pension and other benefits are determined under
a contract with the union representing our associate employees. On August 6,
2000, the collective bargaining agreement with the union representing our
employees expired, and the union initiated a work stoppage. As of 8:00 a.m. on
August 14, 2000, we continued to negotiate a new agreement with the union.

OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES

   2000 - 1999                                                     Increase
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Six Months                                                   $10,338   10.2%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Other operating expenses consist of contract services including centralized
services expenses allocated from Verizon Services, rent, network software costs,
operating taxes other than income, the provision for uncollectible accounts
receivable, and other costs.

    The increase in other operating expenses was largely attributable to the
effect of merger-related costs and other special items recorded in the second
quarter of 2000.  These charges totaled $11,058,000 and were comprised of our
allocated share of $2,475,000 for employee severance, $3,188,000 for direct
incremental and $403,000 for transition merger-related costs incurred by Verizon
Services, and $4,992,000 for other miscellaneous expense items.  Other
miscellaneous expense items included costs of $3,479,000 for the write-off of
accounts receivable, $1,210,000 for legal contingencies and $303,000 for other
items.


DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

   2000 - 1999                                                     Increase

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Depreciation and amortization expense increased in the first six months of
2000 over the same period in 1999 principally as a result of growth in
depreciable telephone plant and changes in the mix of plant assets.  The growth
in telephone plant was largely attributable to increased capital expenditures
for software and hardware to support the expansion of our network.  These
factors were partially offset by the effect of lower rates of depreciation and
amortization.


OTHER INCOME, NET

   2000 - 1999                                                     Increase

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    The change in other income, net, was primarily attributable to additional
interest income associated with the settlement of tax-related matters in the
first six months of 2000.


INTEREST EXPENSE

   2000 - 1999                                                     Increase

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Interest expense includes costs associated with borrowings and capital
leases, net of interest capitalized as a cost of acquiring or constructing plant
assets.

    Interest expense increased in the first six months of 2000 over the same
period in 1999 primarily due to higher levels of average short-term debt with an
affiliate and higher interest rates associated with this debt. Interest expense
was also impacted by additional interest costs of 4,000 associated with a
regulatory contingency, as described in the Results of Operations section. These
factors were partially offset by higher capitalized interest costs resulting
from higher levels of average telephone plant under construction and a reduction
in expense resulting from lower levels of average long-term debt.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The effective income tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a
percentage of income before the provision for income taxes.  Our effective
income tax rate was higher in the first six months of 2000 principally due to
state income tax benefits recorded in the first six months of 1999.



OTHER MATTERS
-------------
FCC Regulation and Interstate Rates

    On May 31, 2000, the FCC approved the industry proposal to restructure
access charges (known as the "CALLS plan"). Under the terms of the plan, direct
end-user access charges are increased while access charges to long distance
carriers are reduced. While the plan continues the 6.5% (less inflation) annual
reductions for most interstate access charges, it provides for a price freeze
when switched access transport prices reach $0.0055 per-minute. In addition, in
conjunction with provisions that will allow carriers to deaverage their
subscriber line charges by geographic zones, the plan establishes a new $650
million universal service fund to support interstate access rates. Of that
amount, Verizon Communications expects approximately $320 million to be used to
support interstate access services in its service territory. The price
restructuring portions of the plan are mandatory for all large local exchange
carriers, including Verizon Communications' telephone operating companies, such
as us. The price level portions of the plan are mandatory only in the initial
year of the plan. Carriers have until September 14, 2000 to decide whether to
participate in the remaining four years of the plan, or whether to submit cost
studies as the basis of future price caps.

    Consistent with the new access plan, Verizon Communications filed tariff
adjustments to take effect on July 1, 2000 (with modifications effective August
11, 2000).  As a result of these tariff adjustments, former GTE carriers in ten
states, and former Bell Atlantic carriers in seven states reached the $0.0055
benchmark and, should Verizon Communications opt into the full five year CALLS
plan, they will not be subject to further annual interstate switched access
price reductions for the remaining life of the plan.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

FASB Accounting Standards - Derivatives and Hedging Activities

    In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."  This statement requires that
all derivatives be measured at fair value and recognized as either assets or
liabilities on our balance sheet.  Changes in the fair values of derivative
instruments will be recognized in either earnings or comprehensive income,
depending on the designated use and effectiveness of the instruments.  The FASB
amended this pronouncement in June 1999 to defer the effective date of SFAS No.
133 for one year. We must adopt SFAS No. 133 no later than January 1, 2001.

                                      13

    In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," which amended SFAS No.
133. The amendments in SFAS No. 138 address certain implementation issues and
relate to such matters as the normal purchases and normal sales exception, the
definition of interest rate risk, hedging recognized foreign-currency-
denominated assets and liabilities, and intercompany derivatives. SFAS No. 138
also amend SFAS No. 133 for decisions made by the FASB relating to the
Derivatives Implementation Group process.

    We are currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138.
The impact of adoption will be determined by several factors, including the
specific hedging instruments in place and their relationships to hedged items,
as well as market conditions at the date of adoption.

FASB Interpretation - Stock Compensation

    In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for
Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation." Interpretation No. 44 was
issued in order to clarify certain issues arising from Accounting Principles
Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," which was
previously issued in October 1972. Interpretation No. 44 is effective July 1,
2000, but certain conclusions cover specific events that occur either after
December 15, 1998 or January 12, 2000.

    The main issues addressed by Interpretation No. 44 are: (a) the definition
of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for
determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the
accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously
fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination.

    Interpretation No. 44 will not have a material impact on our results of
operations or financial position.

SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin - Revenue Recognition

    In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which must be adopted by the
fourth quarter of 2000.  SAB No. 101 provides additional guidance on revenue
recognition, as well as criteria for when revenue is generally realized and
earned, and also requires the deferral of incremental direct selling costs.  We
are currently assessing the impact of SAB No. 101 on our results of operations
and financial position.
