Citizens' Oversight Projects (COPs)771 Jamacha Rd #148 El Cajon, CA 92019 CitizensOversight.org 619-447-3246 August 26, 2014 NS' OVERSIGHT PROJEU CitizensOversightorg REVIEW OF POST-SHUTDOWN ACTIVITIES REPORT (PSDAR) AND OTHER DOCUMENTS RELATED TO THE DECOMMISSIONING OF SAN ONOFRE 1. What system is being used to track the spending and work performed during the decommissioning process?2. In the SONGS 1 decommissioning, SCE used a home-brew tracking system "CARS" which is now impossible to use, meaning we have lost that historical record. Essentially all information about SONGS 1 spending has been lost. Thus we have no means to reflect and compare the steps taken during SONGS 1 and the plans for SONGS 2 & 3. How is SCE safeguarding this information so it will not be lost this time, and so it can be used to inform other decommissioning projects, such as the inevitable decommissioning of the PG&E plant at Diablo Canyon?3. Does SCE nevertheless have any other record of detailed spending for SONGS I 4. The major portions of the decommissioning process occur in three of the "decon" group of tasks, for a total of nearly half the total budget and encompassing over nine years, followed by two "Site Restoration" tasks, which comprise seven more years. Together, these five line items comprise about $2.4 billion. These tasks should be broken down much further to allow the project to be tracked by oversight groups. -- Please provide more detail on these line items on a year-by-year and subproject-by-subproject basis, including cost estimates for each subproject, and total proposed to be spent each year.PERIOD DESCRIPTION PERIOD YRS COST (lO00s)+/- + I-Decon Pd 3 Decommissioning Preparations and Reactor Internals Segmentation

- 5. When and how much money does SCE plan to request to be provided from the decommissioning project using the Advice Letter process.6. In the Nuclear Decommissioning Cost Triennial Proceeding, SCE testified that you were not planning on comparing the detailed cost estimate with the actual spending levels. Do you still plan to try to avoid this level of reasonable oversight in the spending of ratepayer monies?7. Does SCE already have a contract with Waste Control Specialists in Andrews, Texas, to accommodate all the waste other than the high-level waste stored in the dry-cask storage facility on site?8. The SONGS I Reactor Pressure Vessel still exists on site and there have been serious technical problems associated with "segmentation" and transportation.
What are the exact plans to deal with all the reactor pressure vessels?9. Why is the transmission line switchyard not included in the decommissioning project?Sincerely, Raymond Lutz National Coordinator, Citizens' Oversight Projects As of: December 24, 2014 Received:
