GENERAL PUBLIC UTILITIES CORPORATION Metropolitan Edison Company, Pennsylvania Electric Company and Jersey Central Power & Light Company NRC Docket No. 50-289 Three Mile Island Unit No. 1 Restart Proceeding Statement in Response to the NRC's Financial Information Requests Dated 9/21/79 The Commission's Order of August 9, 1979 directs in Item II-7 that the licensee "shall demonstrate his financial qualifications to the extent relevant to his ability to operate TMI-l safely." The questionnaire submit-ted appears to go well beyond that question.

Consequently, while the TMI-1 owners have endeavored to respond to all items of the questionnaire, they do not concede by submit-ting such responses that cil the data requested are relevant to the icsue posed by the Order and expressly reserve the right to contest the issue of the relevance and materiality of some of the inquiries presented.

The TMI-1 owners are major electric utilities with aggregate annual revenues for the 12 months ended September 20, 1979 of $1.4 billion.

While there are, and at all times will be, competing claims for available funds, there is no reasonable basis fot doubt that the TMI-1 owners would accord the first priority to the utilization of their resources to the safe operation of TMI-l and their other nuclear plants.

Their performance during the period subse-quent to the TMI-2 accident is a demonstration of that po'licy.

Promptly after that accident and on a continuing basis since that time, the TMI-2 owners have provided, without a moment's

\\\\15 553

hesitation, all the funds necessary - or possibly necessary -

to bring TMI-2 to a cold shut-down mode and to maintain it in that mode.

In the process, the TMI-2 owners have expended

$74 million through September, 1979.

The Pennsylvania and New Jersey public utility commissions have heretofore allowed the operating expenses for TMI-1 in their ratemaking determinations.

Recently, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission issued an order to Metropolitan Edison Company

(" Met-Ed") and Pennsylvania Electric Company ("Penelec"), two of the three owners of TMI-1, to show cause why TMI-l related costs should not be removed from their base rates in the light of your Com-mission's orders of July 2, 1979 and August 9, 1979 delaying the restart of TMI-1.

Met-Ed and Penelec believe that the delay in restart is not a proper basis for removing TMI-l costs from their base rates and have filed an answer to the order to show cause to that effect.

Regardless, however, of the outcome of that particular proceeding, the TMI-1 owners have every confidence that the Pennsylvania Com-mission and the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (which regulates the rates of the third TMI-1 owner, Jersey Central Power & Light Company) would allow whatcver reasonable rate increases were necessary to assure the safe operation of TMI-1.

The action cf the Pennsyleania Commission and New Jersey Board in conducting expedited proceedings, in which 1175 534

. a they sat en bane to receive testimony as well as hearing oral argument, in orJer to take the actions necessary to enable the three companies to obtain the funds necessary for the purchase of power to replace TMI generation is a confirmation of the responsiveness of those bodies on that score.

If the issue were one of providing the funds neces-sary for the protection of the public health there can be no reasonable basis to doubt that they would be responsive within whatever time frame were required.

In that light, the detailed material sought by the questionnaires would appear to be essentially irrelevant.

In another respect, the questionnaire is trouble-some in that it implicitly ignores the fundamental impact of action of governmental agencies, starting with the Corumission, on the TMI-l owners' financial responsibility.

Prior to the entry cf the Commission's order of August 9, 1979, the TMI-1 owners made a number of sub-missions to the Commission.

In these submissions, they urged that, in establishing procedures for the considera-tion of IMI-l restart, the Commission take into account the National interest in limiting fuel oil imports and the outflow of foreign exchange and the economic inter-ests of the TMI-l owners and the four million residents whom they serve in permitting the restart of TMI-1 as soon as it could be determined that this was consistent with the public heath and safety.

They pointed out, for example, that replacement of TM1-1 generation requires the import 117 33C b

s

. 6 of seven million barrels of oil per year and associated outflow of foreign exchange and an economic cost to the TMI-1 owners and their customers of $168 million per year.

(The actions taken by the OPEC Nations since that time have increased this cost.)

The Commission's legal staff advised the Com-mission that it had authority to adopt procedures which permitted an early restart (see, for example, the memorandum, dated July 26, 1979, of the Commission's general counsel) but the Commission elected not to adopt such procedures.

As the TMI-1 owners have previously pointed out to the Commission, it is particularly troublesome that at none of the meetings of the Commission held to consider such procedures on July 12, July 24 (morning and afternoon), July 25, and July 27 was there any discussion 1; the Commission or its staff of the National and public interest in fashioning procedures which would allow the earliest possible decision on tne restart of TMI-l consistent with public participation in the making of the decision.

Indeed, although the TMI-l owners had urged by a letter delivered to the Commission on July 31, that the Commission schedule a special meeting at which representa-tives of the Department of Energy, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, and the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities would be invited to address those considerations of National and public interest, the August 9 order was issued without the holding of such a meeting.

1175 336

-S-The Commission must be aware that these actions on its part have increased the problems of the TMI-1 owners and the burdens placed upon the public utility commissions which regulate their affairs, and ultimately upon the customers whom the TMI-l owners serve.

Given the alterna-tives that were available to the Commission, it is fair to suggest that, if there are any questions presented concerning the TMI-1 owners' financial qualifications to operate TMI-l safely (and the TMI-l owners believe that there should be no question), those questions are pre-dominantly raised and can be resolved by the Commission's actions.

The views of the TMI-1 owners on the issue posed by Item II-7 of the Commission's August 9 order can be summarized as follows:

1.

TMI-1 is an economic source of power which has had a superior performance record during the four and one half years of commercial operation prior to March 28, 1979; 2.

TMI-1 has demonstrated its significant value to ti.e Nation and to the region, and, when permitted to resume operation, should do so again; the TMI-1 owners and the public utility commissions have a sub-stantial interest in the safe operation of TMI-l as promptly as possible; 1175 337

-s-3.

The TMI-1 owners would necessarily take whatever action is required to enable TMI-1 to operate safely and to continue its significant contribution to the power supply and economy of the region served, and, for that purpose, would give first priority from funds available to them; and 4.

The TMI-1 owners have every reason to believe that the two State rate regulatory agencies would assure that funds were available and applied to that purpose.

Telephone: (201) 263-4900 x682 Da te : October 17, 1979 Page 1 of 11 GENERAL PUBLIC UTILITIES CORPORATION Metropolitan Edison Company, Pennsylvania Electric Company and Jersey Central Power & Light Com pany NRC Docket No. 50-289 Three Mile Island Unit No. 1 Restart Proceeding Response to NRC Staf f's Financial Information Request No. 3 Dated 9/21/79:

" Complete the attached form entitled, " Pro-Forma Sources of Funds,"

on a monthly basis for each licensee and GPU, through the month of estimated completion of long-term modifications and other actions related to Unit No. I as identified in the Commission's August 9, 1979 order.

Note that this statement is for system-wide expendi-tures including capital expenditures related to TMI-l and TMI-2.

Indicate the assumptions upon which the " Sources of Funds" state-ment is based. These assumptions include, but are not necessarily limited to: (a) rates of return on average common stock equity, (b) preferred stock dividend rates, (c) long-term and short-term debt interest rates, (d) market / book ratios, (e) common stock dividend payout ratios, (f) target and month-by-month capital structure, and (g) resultant monthly SEC and indenture coverages over the period.

Provide a brief explanation of the basis for each ass um p tion. "

Response

Enclosed are the requested " Pro Forma Sources of Funds" statements for GPU and its operating subsidiaries, Met-Ed, Penelec and Jersey Central, covering the forecast period from October, 1979 through Decembe r, 1980.

A listing of the assumptions on which these statements are based is also attached.

A preliminary budget estimate of the cost of the TMI-l modifications has been included in these statements because the estimate made in responding to the NRC's Financial Information Requests No. I and 2 has not yet been analyzed for the purpose of determining how much of the cost of modifying TMI-l will be expensed, and how much will be capitalized.

Once this determination has been made, a supplementary response incorporating the revised TMI-l modification cost estimate (i.e.,

the estimate made in response to Requests No. I and 2) will be submitted.

TMI Units TMI-l returns to service 9/1/80.

TMI-2 out of service throughout pe riod.

Construction Reduced construction budget maintained through 1980.

Base Revenues The GPU System retains base revenues on TMI-1.

Penelec receives a $20 million annual increase effective 8/1/80.

Energy Adjustment Clauses Generally consistent with the ratemaking treatment demonstrated by both PUC's since the accident.

Current cost re-covery of the TMI replacement energy is not assumed because of the large increases in customer charges that would have re-sulted. The increase in energy clauses are:

JC - Jan. 1980:

$61 million repre-senting uncollected 1979 and 75%

of the gross of 1980 TMI replace-ment energy costs of 18 months.

- Mar. 1980: $45 million ($61 million on an annual basis) representing increases in fuel costs for non-TMI energy.

ME - Jan. 1980:

$38 million repre-senting 75% of the gross 1980 TMI replacement energy over 18 months and current recovery of other fuel increases.

PN - Jan. 1980:

$12 million repre-senting 75% of the gross 1980 TMI replacement energy over 18 months and current recovery of other fuel increases.
