Enclosure REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PROPOSED CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING AND REQUEST FOR INDIRECT LICENSE TRANSFERS MILLSTONE POWER STATION, UNIT NOS. 1, 2, AND 3 DOCKET NOS. 50-245, 50-336, AND 50-423 By letter dated October 8, 2003, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. (DNC) notified the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) of a proposed corporate restructuring involving the dissolution and creation of certain intermediate subsidiaries of Dominion Resources, Inc.
affecting the chain of ownership of DNC. As such, DNCs letter requested the NRCs consent, to the extent necessary, to the indirect transfer of control of the licenses held by DNC for Millstone Power Station, Unit Nos. 1, 2, and 3. The DNC request was made pursuant to the requirements of Section 50.80(a) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR).
The NRC staff is reviewing the DNC submittal and has determined that the following additional information is required to complete the review:
- 1) Provide five-year financial projections for DNC that cover the years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008. The elements of the five-year projections should include: total revenue; total operating expense; income before taxes and interest; taxes and interest; and net income.
- 2) In order for the NRC staff to determine the sensitivity that any potential changes in revenue might have on net income, please provide the following financial projection scenarios:
a) a five-year financial projection reflecting a ten-percent reduction in the price for a megawatt-hour of electricity; and b) if your projected capacity factor is higher than your historical capacity factor for the past five years, provide a five-year financial projection reflecting the historical capacity factor (if the projected capacity factor is equal or lower than your historical capacity factor, then no additional sensitivity analysis is necessary).
- 3) For the new entity, Dominion Energy Marketing, Inc., provide the following information required by 10 CFR 50.33(d)(3):
a) the state where it is incorporated or organized and the principal location where it does business; b) the names, addresses, and citizenship of its directors and of its principal officers; and c) whether it is owned, controlled, or dominated by an alien, a foreign corporation, or foreign government, and if so, give details.
