. (1) The construction schedule was adversely affected by seven months following reactivation of constmetion in early 1976. This delay was due to an extended negotiation period required to consummate the sale of interests in the Vogtle Project to Oglethorpe Power Corporation, Municipal Electric Authority of Georgia and the City of Dalton, Georgia.
(2) The constmction schedule was adversely affected by twelve months in 1977 due to reduced projected load growth, additional requirements related to physical separation criteria for the cable spreading room and related redesign of the control building.
(3) During portions of 1978,1979 and 1980, constmction was delayed approximately eighteen nonths as a result of difficulties encountered in concrete production, backfill placement and erosion control.
The applicants have requested the rensining extension of the completion dates as a result of a comprehensive assessment of the constmetion schedule as of May 1981 by a Task Force reporting to the Vogtle Project Management Board. The applicants have re-estimated the construction schedule based on new projections for materials and equipment, projected versus actual manpower experience, and increased regulatory requirements, including THI-requirements.
The Commission has reviewed the applicants' request for extension of the construction cmpletion dates. Because this requested action involves no significant hazards consideration, good cause has been shown for the con-struction delay, and the requested extension is for a reasonable period, the bases for which are set forth in the NRC Staf f Evaluation, dated 1.ane4,
1982, the Commission supports the extension of the completion dates for the t e s.l e 7 c h e.
