O WNP-3 ER-OL 310.01 Q.
The operating staff for WNP-3 is estimated to be 485 employees (p. 8.1-1).
Does this figure include security forces and other employees of contractors who would be regularly employed at the WNP-3 site? If not, the Applicant should provide dat-a on such employment.
A.
Current budgets show an estimate of' 514 persons in the operating staff. This staff is composed of 470 Supply System employees (including security force) and 44 contractor employees.
l 310.02 Q.
The Applicant cites a study of Camp Gruber which is in Oklahoma as the basis for a 1.5 employee multiplier 'p. 8.1-1).
What is the rationale for using the conclusion of a study which refers to another (and possibly nonanalogous) regional economy?
A.
Camp Gruber is in a rural area about 50 miles from a major population center (Tulsa); WNP-3 is in rural Grays Harbor County approximately 50 miles from the Seattle-Tacoma population center.
The multiplier is consistent with a recent assessment specific to the Satsop area which estimated an average multiplier of 1.46 during construction of WNP-5 (Impacts of Construction, Rate Changes, and Deficits - Independent Review of Washington Public Power Supply System WNP-4 and WNP-5, Final Report Module V, Northwest Economic Associates, Vancouver, Washington, January 27, 1982, p. 83).
Recent studies on the subject (Socioeconomic Impact of Power Plants, EPRI Rept. No. EA-2228, by Denver Research Institute for Flectric Power Research Institute, Palo Alto, California, February 1982; Socioeconomic Impacts of Nuclear Generating Stations, NUREG/CR-2750, by Mountain West Research Inc. with Social Impact Research Inc. for U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Agency, Washington, D.C.,
July, 1982) have found multiplier effects ranging from 0.23 to 0.8.
.The range appears to reflect the rural versus urban location and the definition and/or size of the impact area.
The WNP-3 impact area during construction has included Grays Harbor, Thurston, Mason, Lewis, Pacific and Pierce Counties. Most of the workers have lived in Grays Harbor and Thurston Counties.
The non-manual workers have tended to reside in Thurston County.
We expect the operation staff to locate in Thurston and Grays Harbor Counties. Thurston County is becoming a trade center and we expect our operation workforce to spend a large part of their income within Thurston and Grays Harbor Counties.

WNP-3 ER-OL 310.03 Q.
Explain the basis for assuming "an estimated future 5% tax rate" (p. 8.1-1).
=
A.
The estimated future 5% tax rate is based on current; Washington State sales tax of 4.5% plus a local option sales tax of up to 0.7%.
Because we cannot forecast how much of the local option would be levied by cities and counties throughout the life of WNP-3, it was assumed the levy would average 0.5%.
310.04 Q, Will WNP-3 make any local real estate tax or in-lieu of tax payments to local governments? If yes, indicate jurisdictions and/or taxing bodies to whom taxes would be paid and an estimate of the amounts to be paid in current dollars.
A.
In addition to the privilege taxes paid on the public-owned portion of NNP-3 (discussed in Subsection 8.1.1), property taxes will be paid by the investor-owned utilities that own thirty percent of the plant. The taxes collected to date by jurisdiction are shown on the attcched Table Q310.04a. The e_stimated future taxes are shown on Table Q310.04b.
310.05 Q.
The applicant should provide a ta'ble showing the mid-year numbers of operating phase workers at the site. These data should reflect utility employees and contractor personnel (e.g., security guards) who would normally be found on the site, but should exclude intermittent or occasional employees, such as those employed in fuel loading. The Applicant should provide these data for a period beginning in 1982 and ending when the complement of operating staff is on site.
A.
The expected staffing levels for operating staff are as follows:
Date Supply System Contractor Total 12/82 224 60 284 12/83 319 20 399 12/84 419 82 501 12/85 462 64 526 12/86 470 44 514
