Feigenbaum (NH Y) to the USNRC, regarding the Seabrook Station O&M Hudget, NYN-9.'070 S ubject:
Correction to Seabrook Station OkM Budget Information Gentlemen:
On M ay 29, 1992 New liarnpshire Yankee proviJed information [Refue e p)l in response to oral notification of an allegation regardin, he praposed license amendment authori/ing the transfer of managing agent r esponsibilitic.3 for Seabrook Station.
NHY provided an e>planation of why certain budget information provided to the NRC and to the New llampshire Public Utilities Commission (NHPUC) was not inconsistent.
This letter serves to correct certain inadvertent errors contained in that letter.
In the first paragraph of page two of the letter, a budget figure of $147.6 million is cited. This number is incorrect and should read $146.7 million. The figure of 5146.7 million is correctly cited in two other locations in the letter.
In the third paragraph of page two of the letter the principal reasons are given for the $5.5 million difference between the escalated affiliation budget and the 1992 budget descloped in late 1991.
The principal reasons cited are increased NRC s, de!ay in transition to a Massachusetts implemented plan and other miscellaneous effects.
Upon further review, NilY has determined that it should n' i have attribui a portion of the variance to :he NRC fee increase signed into law in November 1990.
While the increase in NRC fees was not included in a $113.1 million estimate of Seabrook Station O&M costs prepared by Northeast Utilit' s' in early 1990, the $113.6 millien OKM budget from NHY%
affiliatirn study did anticipate the higher fees.
NHY attributes the variance betwe:n the escalated affiliation hudget and the 1992 hudget to the delay in NAESCO transitior, ine :ased taxes and benefits, increased electric demand charge, delays in and increased costs associated with the transition to the Massachusetts impleirented emergency plan, increased refueling outage costs and accounting for the co<t of obsolete reaterial.
