R. Tourtellotte, Chairman Regulatory Reform Task Force U.
S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Washington, D. C.

Dear Mr. Tourtellotte:
COSTS OF BACKFITTING AND REGULATION POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT This is in response to your February 8, 1983 letters to Mr.
R. W.
Britt and Mr. C.
S. McNeer in which you requested fin'ancial information regarding the costs of backfitting at our Point Beach Nuclear Plant.
In order to provide you with a reasonably prompt response, we have only included those items having a major cost impact, i.e.,
those approaching a million dollars or more.
Effective dates and booked values are presented in Attachment A.
Estimated regulatory costs are presented in Attachment B.
You should be aware that these estimates are based on a variety of budgetary and financial sources and do not necessarily represent final booked costs.
The Point Beach Nuclear Plant consists of two Westinghouse PWR units with a combined capacity of 994 MWe.
Commercial operation of the first unit was December 21, 1970; the second unit, October 1, 1972.
The total cost of the plant was approximately $160 million, or $160 per kilowatt.
The major escalation of regulatory impacts began in the mid-1970's with spent fuel rack changeout, extensive security modifications, and fire protection upgrading.
Since TMI we have experienced an additional ~ escalation of required activities in Lessons Learned requirements and a number of major bulletin requirements.
Our anticipation of continued involvement in such major efforts has resulted in the expansion of our engineering and' operating staffs.
We hope the attached information will be of some assistance in your current efforts.
If you need any clarification of our estimates, please feel free to call.
Very truly yours,
-p 6305230724 830225
