IV. CONSTRUCTION The percent complete was lowered from 45.8% to 40% at the end of this quarter in anticipation of additional hours being identified during the upcoming reestimate. The reason was to establish a real goal of 20%
complete for 1982. At the end of the year the physical work based on direct manhours is projected to be 60% complete. This change in percent complete has been accounted for in current project plannin , and has no effect on Unit Schedule Inservice date. (See Attachment 3 .
Turbine Building Erection of miscellaneous platforms continued throughout the building, as well as painting and finish work. Work continued on feedwater, moisture separator, companent cooling, heater drains and the water treating piping systems.

V. SCHEDULE The commercial inservice date remains May 1986. No critical areas are behind schedule more than a few weeks and many areas are ahead of schedule.
VI. PROJECT ESTIMATE AND CASH FLOW Attached is the Millstone Unit No. 3 Estimated Cash Expenditures Forecast for the quarter ended December 31,1981 (Attachment 1) . The cash expen-ditures provide for a May 1986 commercial inservice date. Unit expenditures, site and common facilities and nuclear fuel have been updated to reflect actual expenditures through December 1981.
VII. NUCLEAR FUEL The Estimated Nuclear Fuel Expenditure Report (Attachment 2) has been updated to include actual expenditures through December 31, 1981 and includes estimated monthly expenditures for 1982.
The nuclear fuel expenditures reflect the settlement of the uranium litigation with Westinghouse Electric Corporation. The estimated credits im this settlement are shown separately and encompass fuel and plant services and equipment to be provided by Westinghouse for Millstone Unit 3 either at no cost or at a discount. Credits associated with non-fuel services and equipment are shown as a reduction in nuclear fuel cash flow. Additional credits are expected to extend into the early 1990s.
Revised estimated for settlement credits are included in this report and reflect a delay in some equipment and services to be provided under the Settlement Agreement.
Arrangements have been made to upgrade a portion of the existing natural UF6 inventory to enriched UF This action will result in utilization ofthe$4.1milliondownpayhe.nt previously paid to D0E. This down payment has been accruing interest at 7%/ year, which is substantially lower than the escalation rate on enrichment prices. This material will be stored at DOE until it is required for the initial core.
Proposed Fuel Financing Arrangements The Lead Participants are presently making arrangements to finance. their 65% undivided interest in the fuel for Millstone Unit 3. It is expected that these arrangements will take the form of a Nuclear Fuel Lease Agreement between the three Lead Participants and a bank, acting as trustee of a special purpose trust. Under the Lease Agreement, the trustee will agree to make payments to fuel vendors for the Lead Participants' 65% interest in the fuel and/or to reimburse the Lead Participants for payments previously made by them to fuel vendors for their 65% interest in the fuel. The Lead Participants will be obligated under the Lease Agreement to make quarterly lease payments to the trustee which will be calculated so as to fully reimburse the trustee for all of its expenses with respect to their 65% interest in the fuel as it is burned up, includ*ng all payments to fuel vendors and/or the Lead Participants and all finance charges incurred by the trustee. The trustee will obtain the funds necessary to make payments to the Lead Partipants and/or fuel l vendors by selling commercial paper of the trust which will be backed by an irrevocable letter of credit of one or more banks. The trust will also have the ability to borrow directly from the banks under a revolving credit loan arrangement. During the period that the Lead Participants' interest in the fuel is being financed by the trust, the trust will hold title to that 65% interest and the associated interest of the Lead Parti-l cipants in the nuclear fuel contract rights. The trust, in turn, will
! grant a security interest in the 65% interest in the fuel and contract f rights to the banks and commercial paper noteholders. These arrangements will also cover Millstone Units 1 and 2. They will not cover the other Participants' share of the fuel expenses for Millstone Unit 3.
l
In addition to the commercial paper and revolving credit loan sources of funding described above, the trust may also sell intermediate term (four to eight year) notes to institutional investors in order to raise funds. These notes would also be secured by a security interest in the Lead Participants' 65% interest in the fuel and contract rights.
The Lead Participants are presently evaluating proposals from banks for the letter-of-credit-backed commercial paper and revolving credit loan portion of this program. It is estimated that this phase of the financing will become effective during the fourth quarter of 1981 and that the intermediate term note portion of the program will be added in 1982.
