South Carolina is a Pro Nuclear State US REP. JOHN SPRATT (D-SC) – 4/1/08 “V.C. Summer Plant has proven its value, as a generator of electricity and as a good corporate citizen. I am glad to see its owners, SCE&G and Santee-Cooper, move one step closer to the construction of a new reactor. Nuclear power now supplies half our electricity in South Carolina, and its role is essential for our future if we are to meet the demand for electricity while diminishing carbon emissions.” US SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM (R-SC) –3/31/08 “I’m very pleased and excited to hear SCE&G and Santee Cooper have applied to construct and operate two new nuclear power plants in South Carolina. The additional use of nuclear power is one of the major steps we must take to become more energy independent as a nation. The benefits of nuclear power are clear: It is reliable, efficient, and safe. It helps lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It is an environmentally-friendly energy source which does not pollute our air or produce carbon emissions .” “I strongly support this application. Construction and operation of new nuclear power plants will provide South Carolina with abundant, affordable power for decades to come.” 19 SC ranked 3rd in the US in nuclear capacity 7 commercial reactors already in SC Greater than 50% nuclear capacity Barnwell low level waste facility available only to SC, CT and NJ Savannah River Site Westinghouse nuclear fuels plant in SC Naval Nuclear Power Training Command in Charleston, SC Innovative Base Load Review Act (BLRA)

South Carolina Supreme Court Issues Ruling on Base Load Review Order,

SCE&G Nuclear Project to Continue as Planned

Cayce, SC, August  9, 2010... SCANA subsidiary (NYSE:SCG) South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (SCE&G)  received an opinion from the South Carolina Supreme Court reversing the decision of Public Service Commission of South Carolina to include cost contingencies and associated inflation as part of its anticipated components of capital costs under SCE&G’s Base Load Review Order for its new nuclear construction project.

“Contingencies are a normal part of major construction projects,” said SCE&G President Kevin Marsh. “Rather than having a pre-approved project contingency fund, this will simply require the company to go before the Commission for cost updates as previously designated contingency funds are to be used. This ruling may change the steps in the regulatory process but it should not change the outcome as long as the costs incurred are deemed prudent.”

The projected contingency fund was less than 10 percent of the total project budget.  Of the pending revised rate request before the PSC, 99.5 percent is unaffected, as only about $270,000 out of $47.6 million revenue requirement is related to previously designated contingency dollars. All other portions of the Base Load Review Order remain intact and construction of the new units is continuing as planned.

Marsh added, “It is important to understand that the Court’s decision does not delay the actual construction of the new units.  The Supreme Court’s decision does not change the Commission’s issuance of a Certificate of Environmental and Compatibility and Convenience, which is required to construct the new units.”
