Dear Mr. Denton:
Subject:
CONSTRUCTION DELAY ON WNP-3
Reference:
G03-83-451, GD Bouchey to HR Denton, dated June 3, 1983 The reference letter infonned you of implementation of a 30 day construction slowdown on WNP-3 while the Supply System investigated alternative sources of financing.
On July 8, 1983 the Supply System Executive Board adopted a resolution calling for an immediate construction delay of WNP-3 until an assured source of funding for continued construction can be obtained. A detailed implementation plan is currently in development and is expected to be completed around August 1, 1983. The Supply System will attempt to preserve the capability for a reasonably efficient restart during the next 3 to 9 months by retaining the key class 1 contractors.
The Supply System remains committed to preservation of the physical plant and maintenance of the construction pennit during the period of construction delay. Additionally, the Supply System will continue to seek to remove the impediments preventing further financing of WNP-3 in order to resume project construction activities.
