Item 7.01    REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

Earlier this year, the South Carolina Supreme Court ruled that the contingency reserve of $438 million under South Carolina Electric & Gas Company's Base Load Review Act order could not be pre-approved as the Public Service Commission of South Carolina (PSC) had done. Instead, the Company is now required to submit costs above its base budget for approval by the PSC as they are identified to specific budget items.   
  
At a briefing for the PSC this morning, SCANA’s Chief Financial Officer, Jimmy Addison will update the commission on the Company's plans to address this change for the specific items identified to date.
 
Specifically, he will disclose that the Company anticipates filing within the next 30 days for an amount estimated to be between $150 million and $200 million, in 2007 dollars.  The costs in question would be incurred over the course of the construction project which is scheduled to be completed in 2019.  The Company still anticipates completing the project within the original budget estimate that included the contingency projection of $438 million and is simply responding to the court's decision by seeking commission approval to reclassify these costs from contingency funds to specific budget categories.  SCE&G’s 55% share of the project’s cost with that contingency is $4.5 billion in 2007 dollars.
