September 9, 1985 7590-01 NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMISSION DOCKET NO. 50-461A ILLIN0IS POWER COMPANY, 50YLAND POWER COOPERATIVE, INC.

AND WESTERN ILLINDIS POWER COOPERATIVE, INC.

NOTICE OF UPDATED FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT ANTITRUST CHANGES AND TIME FOR FILING REQUESTS FOR REEVALUATION The Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has made a finding in accord-ancewithSection105c(2)oftheAtomicEnergyActof1954,asamended, that no significant (antitrust) changes in the licensees' activities or proposed activities have occurred subsequent to the construction permit review of Unit 1 of the Clinton Power Station by the Attorney General and the Commission. The finding is as follows:

f "Section 105c(2) of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, provides for an antitrust review of an application for an operating license if the Connission determines that significant changes in the licensee's activities or proposed activities have occurred ,

{ subsequent to the previous construction pennit review. The Commission has delegated the authority to make the "significant g

e P change" detennination to the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor i Regulation. Based upon an examination of the events since issuance of the Clinton 1 and 2 construction pennits to the Illinois Power Company, the staffs of the Antitrust and Economic Analysis Section .

e of the Site Analysis Branch Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation ,

and the Antitrust Section of the Office of the Executive Legal  :

Director, hereafter referred to_ as " staff," have jointly concluded, 3p- o 5~~Il0313

r after consultation with the Department of Justice, that the changes that have occurred since the antitrust construction permit review are not of the nature to require a second anti-trust review at the operating license stage of the application.

"In reaching this conclusion, the staff considered the structure of the electric utility industry in central and southern Illinois, the events relevant to the Clinton construction permit review and the events that have occurred subsequent to the construction permit review and the initial no significant change analyses.

"The conclusion of the staff's analysis is as follows:

' Staff completed its initial antitrust operating license 7 reviewoftheClintonNuclearPowerStation(Clinton)in I' February of 1982. Several changes in the applicants' t

activities since the original construction permit (CP) review in 1974 were identified; however, staff concluded that,

" Based upon the successful implementation of CP license conditions and the lack of any detrimental conduct or activity (to the competitive process in central and southern Illinois) on the part of Illinois Power Company, Soyland Power Cooperative

or Western Illinois Power Cooperative, staff recom-mends that no affirmative significant change deter-mination be made pursuant to the application for an operating license for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station." (Clinton " Finding of No Significant Antitrust Changes," March 11, 1982, Federal Register,

p. 10655.)

'Since the staff completed its initiel antitrust operating license review in February of 1982, there have been construc-tion delays necessitating changes in scheduled fuel load dates for the Clinton plant. Fuel loading is now scheduled for January of 1986, approximately four years after the staff completed its initial antitrust review. Staff felt this four year period created a " review vacuum" and requested updated i

j information from the applicants pursuant to any changed activity since the initial antitrust operating license review.

'After reviewing the updated Regulatory Guide 9.3 information and contacting various electric utility representatives in Illinois and other interested parties, staff identified several changes in the applicants' activities (principally those of

Illinois Power Company) since the initial operating license review. Many of the changes, e.g., new interconnections and partial requirements wholesale power sales, by Illinois Power Company, represented extensions of those changes identified in the original operating license review and have provided additional procompetitive stimuli to the Illinois bulk power industry.

Smaller power systems in Illinois have been able to successfully i

" shop" for alternative sources of power and energy. Applicants Illinois Power Company, Soyland Power Cooperative, Inc. and Western Illinois Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. have initiated a study to determine whether or not future jointly owned generat-i ing facilities would be economically feasible. New transmission agreements have been consummated between Illinois Power and its wholesale power customers that provide these smaller power e- systems with the means to take advantage of the benefits nor-P mally associated with larger, fully integrated power systems, t

j e.g., access to short term economy and diversity power and energy sales and access to transmission for long term block purchases of power and energy from a number of different power suppliers.

Increased coordination between those fully integrated power systems and the smaller, less diversified power systems has led to greater competition in the Illinois bulk power industry. This trend toward greater coordination among industry participants began with the I

i

institution of antitruct license conditions at the construction permit review stage.

i 'The changes that have been identified since the construction per-mit review have by and large provided momentum for greater coordi-nation, and consequently increased competition between all groups of power supply systems in central and southern Illinois. Staff observed this trend toward increased competition among bulk power suppliers in its initial antitrust operating license analysis.

This trend has continued since 1982 and consequently staff sees no reason to change its recommendation that "no affirmative significant change determination be made pursuant to the appli-cation for an operating license for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station."'

P " Based on the staff's analysis, it is my finding that a formal t

j operating license antitrust review of the Clinton Power Station,

, Unit 1 is not required."

g Any person whose interest may be affected by this finding may file with full particulars a request for reevaluation with the Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Comission, Washington, D.C.

20555 for 30 days from the date of the publication of the Federal Register notice. Requests for a reevaluation of the updated no significant changes determination shall be accepted after the date when the Director's finding becomes final but before the issuance of the OL only if they contain new information, such as information about facts or events of antitrust sig-

I. Introduction A prospective operating licensee is not required to undergo a formal anti-i trust review unless the Nuclear Regulatory Connission (41RC or Connission)*

detemines that there have been "significant changes" in the licensee's '

' activities or proposed activities subsequent to the review by the Attorney i

General and the Connission at the construction permit (CP) stage. Concen-tration on changes in the applicant's activities since the previous antitrust review expedites and focuses the review on areas of possible competitive con-flict heretofore not analyzed by the Attorney General or the Commission.

In its Sumner decision.** the Connission has provided the staff *** with a set of criteria to be used in making the significant change determination for operatinglicense(0L) applicants:

! "Thestatutecontemplatesthatthechangeorchanges(1 have -

~ 1 To warrant a significant change finding, i.e., to trigger a forwal OL antitrustreview,theparticularchange(s)mustmeetallthreeofthese criteria.

l On February 23, 1982, the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation issued a finding pursuant to the antitrust operating license P

review for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station (herein <

recommending that no formal operating license antitrust review was required '

for Clinton.* Since the Director's initial finding in 1982, the fuel load date for Clinton was changed twice, from January of 1983 to January of 1984 and from January 1984 to January 1986. The original change in the fuel load date created a gap in staff's antitrust operating license review and antiquate

(

much of the data used by staff in its original review procedure. Consequently. i

- l staff , initiated a " monitoring review" of Clinton which was completed in  !

January of 1983.** Staff's monitoring review "found no reaIon to amend its

{ 'no significant change' determination pursuant to Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Station."*** .

i As a result of the change to the most recent fuel load date, i.e.. January i of1986, applicant'soriginal(andmostcomprehensive)datasubmissionwould be almost six years old at the time of fuel load and staff felt not an ade-(

and southern Illinois. For this reason staff requested updated data respor.ses from all applicants pursuant to changed activity since the original OL antitrust data response in May of 1980. After reviewing these data and after contact with members of the electric power industry in Illinois, staff recommends that no affirmative significant change finding be made pursuant to Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station.

II. Structure of the Electric Power Industry in Illinois The basic structure of the electric power industry in Illinois has not changed since staff's original significant change review. The state is still separated into Chicago area and non-Chicago area components with large investor owned utilities dominating each segment. The Chicago area is served by one of the largest domestic electric power companies Cosmon-wealth Edison Company. The remainder of the state, from the north central portion to the southern tip of the state, is served by a group of power comp'anies including municipal, cooperative and private power companies. ,

The relevant marketing area for the Clinton power station focuses on the central and southern portions of the State of Illinois, i.e., the area in which the incidence of any anticompetitive practices associated with the activities of the owners of Clinton will have the greatest impact. This is the area in which the three applicants serve and the area where the use of the power and energy generated by the Clinton plant will be most concentrated.

P A. Applicant Systems -

Illinois Power Company, with approximately 82% ownership of the plant, is the lead applicant responsible for construction and operation of the plant.

The remaining 18% of the plant is owned by two cooperative power systems, Western Illinois Power Cooperative (WIPCO) and Soyland Power Cooperative (Soyland).

Illinois Power Company is a fully integrated power system (i.e., engaged in generation, transmission and distribution of electric power and energy) serving primarily the central and southern portions of the State of Illinois.

Western Illinois Power Cooperative is a GAT cooperative -- engaged primarily in the generation and transmission of electric power and energy serving distribution cooperative members in the west' central portion of the state.

Soyland Power Cooperative was established by a group of 15 distribution cooperatives specifically to acquire an ownership interest in Clinton. The ass 6ers currently provide service to retail loads in central and southern .

portions of Illinois. (See Appendix A for a more detailed description of applicant systems.)

III. Previous Antitrust Reviews of Clinton l

A. Construction Permit Review .

The initial antitrust review of Clinton was conducted by the Department l

... .:.,~ . w ~ . a use~w xt u. ,. m i= - w w e -- . _ =.= .

of Justice (Department or D0J) and the Commission at the construction per-mit (CP) stage in the early 1970's. During the construction pemit review,

...thestaffsoftheDepartmentofJustice(DOJ)andtheAEC/NRC became aware of certain allegations of misconduct by Illinois Power in conjunction with its dealings with cooperative and municipal power systems in or adjacent to Illinois Power's service area."*

After additional data was collected and the anticompetitive concerns were fully aired, the applicant agreed to a set of policy comitments intended to prohibit any future refusals to deal or similar anticompetitive conduct by Illinois Power Co. in its dealings with other power entities in or adjacent to its service area. These policy cannitments later became license conditions that were attached to the Clinton construction pemits.** Based upon the policy conuitments agreed to by Illinois Power and the inclusion of these commitments as license conditions to the Clinton construction per-mits, the Department issued an advice letter to the Connission dated April 29, 1974 recommending no hearing. No petitions to intervene were . I received and the CP antitrust review was effectively completed with the publication of the advice letter in the Federal Reaister in May of 1974.

B. Operating License Review ~

As indicated supra, the Connission's operating license review focuses only on changes in the applicants' activities since the antitrust review at the construction permit review stage. After reviewing the data submitted by the applicants pursuant to changes since the CP review, talking to members in the industry and reviewing various public documents.

" Staff identified a number of changes that. (1) have occurred since the construction permit antitrust review, and (2) are reasonably attributable to the licensee (s). [Thereby meeting two of the Sumer criteria necessary for a "significant change."] However,many of these changes are in conformance with the' construction permit anti-trust license conditions and have had positive performance effects on the availability of bulk power supply and on competition in the area generally. Other changes which have occurred tave not had significant negative antitrust implications that would warrant a Comission remedy, and therefore do not warrant a significant change finding."*

~

, Staff completed its initial operating license review in February of 1982 and found no reason to recomend that the Director of NRA issue a signifi -

cant change finding. The review concluded that,

" Based upon the successful implementation of CP license conditions j

and the lack of any detrimental conduct or activity.... staff recomends that no affirmative significant change determination be i

made pursuant to the application for an operating license for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station."**

C. Monitoring Review

  • Subsequent to staff's initial significant change analysis in February of 1982, the fuel load date for Clinton was changed from January of 1983 to January of 1984. Staff felt such a development necessitated a " fresh look" '

at the Illinois electric bulk power industry and any changes in the activi-ties of the Clinton applicants in particular. The staff monitoring review was not intended as an in depth significant change analysis, but more of a i flash review, intended to pick up f14 grant changes in conduct or particular i

complaints from affected parties engaged in or interested in the Illinois electric power industry. (The formality and extensive data requests that characterize the significant change analysis are.not a part of the monitoring

{

reviewprocess.) Staff's monitoring review for Clinton was completed in January of 1983. The review concluded. *

  • Because of a delay in issuing the Clinton Unit 1 OL,

i IV. Changes Since the Initial Doerating License Review Considering the most recent delay in fuel loading from January of 1984 to 4

January of 1986, and the fact that staff's broad data base of the Illinois I

i electric power industry is based upon dated information, i.e., that pro-vided by the applicant in 1980, staff decided to request updated responses  !

i 3

to Regulatory Guide 9.3* from the applicants and conduct a supplemental significant change analysis, focusing on those changes which have taken

~

identified several changes associated with the applicants' conduct and activity since the initial significant change review.  !

{  !

Among the three applicant systems, Illinois Power Company has experienced l l  !

! the greatest number of changes (with possible competitive implications)

! since the initial OL review. As evidenced during the original OL review. I l

these changes have come about largely through new interconnections and '

i sales of wholesale power by Illinois Power Company to smaller power systems in Illinois. .

t.

A. Interconnections i I  !

i j

i The trend toward new interconnections involving all applicant systems and j

j particularly Illinois Power evidenced during the initial OL review has i

! continued.

Illinois Power has consummated a number of interconnections,

, with both large and small systems, since 1982. '

i 1 1.

Illinois Power Co./ Southern Illinois Power Coop. -- In  !

1 i

september of 1984 Illinois Power energized a 138 kV interconnection with the Southern Illinois Power Cooperative (51PC). Representatives

) of both parties began discussions pursuant to the feasibility of an '

interconnection between the two systems that, according to SIPC.

j i

would eliminate the need for SIPC to construct approximately 16

] miles of 69 kV line. The two systems are presently interchanging h

i short term and economy power over the intertie and according to i

. _ _ ..=:_._= . .:. .

s s'

) SIPC, the interconnection agreement also includes provisions for wheeling over Illinois Power's lines, but the coop has not had a need to activate that provision of the agreement to date.

1 i

, 2. Illinois Power Co./ Western Illinois Power Coop. -- On June 25, 1982 a 138 kV interconnection between Illinois Power and i

one of its co-applicant systems in the Clinton project Western Illinois Power Cooperative (WIPCO), was cospleted. The interconnec-i i

tion was initiated by WIPC0 primarily to serve one of its customers, j a coal company.

1 4

Another 138 kV interconnection between Illinois Power and WIPC0 was completed on August 30, 1982. The interconnection was initiated by WIPC0 according to Illinois Power "in drder to isprove service to the

69 kV system in the area." -

j Illinois Power Co. has energized numerous interconnections since the initial i

l OL antitrust review in 1982. New agreements have been consununated with both  !

large, fully integrated power systems as well as smaller municipal and j cooperative power systems. The new interconnections identified by staff f l represent a continuation of a trend toward interconnection which was stimu-1 lated by the antitrust license conditions attached to the Clinton construc- l tion permit as well as general reliability and service requirements imposed f l t

! upon a large public utility s" stem. It is staff's view that applicants' L interconnections since the CP antitrust review have had a procompetitive l

\

effect upon the bulk power services market in central and southern Illinois.

[

j To the extent that new interconnections have increased reliability of par- (

1 l,* ticipating power systems and broadened access to power supply alternatives t ,

for Illinois power entities, staff would encourage applicants to continue * '

i j the development of new interconnections and interconnection agreements i

j evidenced since the completion of the construction permit review.

1. During the period 1981-82, the City of Flora Illinois expressed an interest in purchasing wholesale for resale power from Illinois Power. According to a representative of the City Illinois Power offered to supply the City; however, the City managed to negotiate a more favorable agreement with another bulk power supplier.

2. As a result of the newly energized interconnection between Illinois Powar and Farmer City, Illinois (see " Interconnections"), the '

City requested and received full requirements wholesale power from  !

Illinois Power beginning on October 4, 1984 s

According to Illinois Power's Regulatory Guide 9.3 response,

the City of Red Bud Illinois expressed interest in obtaining wholesale L

service from Illinois Power. When contacted, the City representative stated that Red Bud had no interest in service from Illinois Power.  ;

4. The Mt. Carmel Public Utility Co. began taking partial .

i requirements wholesale service from Illinois' Power'on~ January 1, 1983.

r l Illinois Power delivered power under this Purchase Power Agreement to Central Illinois Public Service Co., which in turn provided trans-l mission service for delivery of the power to Mt. Carmel. Effective -

January 1, 1984 Mt. Carwel transferred to a full requirements whole-sale Purchase Power Agreement and. began taking all of its power require-  !

ments from Illinois Power Co. over the transmission lines of Central Illinois Public Service Co. .

Once the interconnection between Illinois Power ~and the Southern Illinois Power Cooperative was energized in September of 1984(see" Interconnections"),thecoopbeganpurchasingblocksof short term wholesale power from Illinois power, reportedly utilizing the full 40 MW capacity of the intertie.

6. The Wabash Valley Power Association was involved in dis-cussions with Illinois Power in the spring /sunner of 1984 pursuant to the purchese of a large block of short term power. The generation -

and transmission cooperative did not consunnate a power purchase agree-ment with Illinois Power because Wabash was able to negotiate a more favorable purchase agreement with another supplier.

7. On May 24, 1983 Western 11'11nois Power Cooperative entered into a new three year agreement for purchase of power from Illinois Power Co. The agreement will terminate upon commercial operaticn of I the Clinton nuclear plant. The agreement provides supp'lemental power.

9. As part of a FERC rate settlement reached with*its wholesale power customers on November 18, 1983, Illinois Power agreed to a Short Term Energy Transmission Agreement and a long term Electric Transporta-tion Service Agreement. These particular service agreements now allow Illinois Power's smaller wholesale customers to more effectively shop for competitively priced power in both the market for " spot" or short term aconoiny and diversity power and energy, .as well as longer term (more than 5 years) power from various power suppliers interconnected with the Illinois Power system. These two transmission agreements complement agreements reached earlier between Illinois Power and its wholesale customers that enabled these customers to take partial requirements power from Illinois Power. (See Appendix F of the initial antitrust operating license review.) These two transmission agreements represent positive, procosipetitive developments since the earlier OL antitrust review, allowing smaller power sfstems to com-pete more effectively with the larger, fully integrated power systems j

for the most efficient sources of power and energy in and adjacent to, 1 the Illinois bulk power market.

Those changes attributable to the applicants which have taken place in i

the Illinois wholesale power market since the initial Clinton~ operating 4 license review have for the most part been representative of a continuum

.. s source of power to meet their individual loads. The Wabash' Valley Power Cooperative and the City of Flora expressed interest in purchasing whole-sale power from Illinois Power but managed to negotiate more favorable agreements with other suppliers. The Mt. Carmel Public Utility Co. (a privatepowercompanylocatedinMt.Carmel. Illinois),theSouthern Illinois Power Cooperative and the Fanner City electric system all have begun taking wholesale power from Illinois Power since the original OL review. Moreover, the Western Illinois Power Cooperative has negotiated new interconnection and wholesale power agreements with Illinois Power that will enable WIPCO to meet anticipated load deficiencies until Clinton comes on line.

All of these developments in the Illinois wholesale bulk power market point toward the continuation of increaised coordination and competition among industry members evidenced during the initial operating license

, antitrust review. Staff encourages industry members to continue to

" test the market" and explore new alternative sources of power supply. .

The wholesale power developments identified since the original OL anti-trust review have come about largely as a result of the antitrust license conditions attached to the Clinton construction permit and for the most part have resulted from procompetitive forces at work in the Illinois l wholesale bulk power market.

i C. Mergers and Acquisition Involving Applicant Systems .

i

, 1 i

Since the initial OL antitrust review was completed in 1982, staff has  ;

}

identified two proposed mergers and one acquisition involving applicant i

systems.

j i. Early in 1981. Illinois Power Company began discussions with the Cedar Point Light & Power Company regarding a merger of i

i the two systems. On March 29, 1985 Illinois Power purchased the j

assets of Cedar Point Light & Power. Cedar Point was a privately owned electric distribution system serving approximately 180 custo-i mers in the Illinois town bearing the same name. Prior to the i

acquisition, Cedar Point purchased 100% of its power requirements from the Illinois Power Company.

l 2. Illinois Power and the Mt. Carmel Public Utility Company executed a stock exchange merger agreement late in 1981. The companies are presently awaiting federal and state regulatory approval before i proceeding with the merger.*

' 'I!!1r. ts Power and the Mt. Carmel Public Utility Com agreement with the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC)pany filed on December the merger 7, 1981.

The Central Illinois Public Service Co. intervened and protested the proposed merger.

i Tae ICC initially ruled against the Illinois Power /Mt. Carmel merger, l

indicating that greater cost efficiencies would result from a Mt. Carmel/ Central Illinois Public Service Co. merger. The case was introduced into the judicial

' system at the circuit court level where the ICC ruling was upheld--ruling against the Illinois Power /Mt. Carmel merger. Both Illinois Power and Mt. Carmel appealed the decision which was overruled by the appellate court. The State of Illinois appealed the appeals court ruling to the State Supreme Court where the case is now pending.

The Illinois Power /Mt. Carmel merwer is also awaiting approval before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commiss' on (FERC). Docket No. EC82-4-00. At the request of I linois Power Company, the FERC delayed a ruling on the merger pending a resolution at the State level; however, the FERC has recently decided to proceed with its own hearings and not wait for the ruling by the Illinois state supreme Court. .

3. By letter dated February 21, 1985

\

as agent for the owners of the Clinton nuclear plant, forwarded infor-f nation pertaining to the planned merger of Western Illinois Power

{ Cooperative and Soyland Power Cooperative. A copy of a " Coordination l

'. and Operation Agreement" between Soyland and WIPC0 dated July 25, 1984 i was included along with the February 21 letter. According to the  !

a " General Provisions" of the Agreement.

"As of January 1,1985, Soyland Power Cooperative (Soyland) and Western Illinois Power Cooperative (WIPCO[)] will ' pool' .

all electric power and energy and transmission capacity avail-

! able from their respective facilities so that the electric power and energy and transmission capacity will be utilized as though i

2 the two cooperatives were merged as of January 1, 1985. The i

Agreement goes on to provide that a plan of merger will be pre-  ;

pared, and that the formal merger under Illinois law will take l place effective as of July 1,1986."**

Staff does not be11 eve that the Cedar Point acquisition or the proposed j Mt. Carmel merger pose significant anticompetitive problems in the Illinois bulk power market. Both systems serve small municipalities and were

!* wholesale customers of Illinois Power prior to being acquired. (The

counties of Illinois. The combination of the two systems should result  !

t in cost efficiencies normally associated with membership in an operating pool once Soyland becomes a generating entity, i.e., when Clinton comes

, i on line. The more efficient Soyland/WIPC0 has the potential to provide stronger competition in the Illinois bulk power industry, particularly l

,, in its dealings with larger more fully integrated power systems.** ]

Staff sees no significant anticompetitive effects befalling the Illinoit l bulk power market as a result of the acquisition or proposed mergers which f

have occurred since the original OL antitrust review.

D. Miscellaneous Changes ~

Staff has identified additional, unrelated, changes in applicants' conduct and activity since the initial OL review, none of which have resulted in significant negative competitive impact upon the Illinois bulk power industry.

1. Co-owners Soyland Power Cooperative and Western Illinois 1 Power Cooperative initially agreed to a combined 20% ownership share in the Clinton nuclear plant. Due to cost overruns associated with the construction of the plant, Soyland and WIPC0 have placed a dollar limit on their participation in the plant of $450 million. According to Illinois Power, this sum now amounts to an ownership interest of approximately 18%.

~

2. During 1983 Illinois Power Co. entered into discussions with the City of Peru Illinois pursuant to a request by the City to trans .

( port energy for the City from its proposed Starved Rock Hydro Plant to l the City's distribution facilities. Illinois Power made a proposal to transport the power, however, the City cancelled its plans to build the (

j hydro facility and consequently no transmission agreement was consumated with Illinois Power. j r

l

3. Effective Juno 8, 1983, eight members of the Soyland Power l

Cooperative, which had been purchasing their wholesale power require-f ments directly from Illinois Power Co., had their wholesale power .

Subsequent to this date, these eight distribution coop members have been served directly through the parent, Soyland. The rationale for this change-over, according to Soyland, was to realize administrative efficiencies associated with a more closely monitored power supply for all of its member systems. (Presumably, these administrative efficiencies would become operating efficiencies once Soyland became a generating entity with the commercial operation of the Clinton power station.)

None of these miscellaneous changes have had any significant negative impact l

on tne 1611nois bulk power market. Co-owners Soyland and WIPC0 have assessed l

^

their consnitment and ability to financially participate in the Clinton project and have reached a business decision to limit their participation in the plant to $450 million. Though Illinois Power wi11 retain any ownership rights over and above the Soyland/WIPCO commitment, staff believes that the co-owners made a business decision based upon their ability to pey for their share of the plant and were not pressured into giving up a portion of the plant to Illinois  !'

Power.

Moreover, the decision by Soyland to consolidate its wholesale power-contracts and'the decision by the City of Peru not to build a hydro facility

{

have not had significant detrimental effects upon'the Illinois bulk power industry.

" Based upon the successful implementation of CP license conditions i

and the lack of any detrimental conduct or activity (to the competitive  !

process in central and southern Illinois) on the part of Illinois l Power Company, Soyland Power Cooperative or Western Illinois Power i

Cooperative, staff recomends that no affirmative significant change determination be made pursuant to the application for an l operating license for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station."

(Clinton " Finding of No Significant Antitrust Changes," March 11, 1982, Federal Register, p. 10655.) j t

Since the staff completed its initial antitrust operating license review in  !

l February of 1982, there have been construction delays necessitating changes l

in scheduled fuel load dates for the Clinton plant. Fuel loading is now

  • scheduled for January of 1986, approximately four years after the staff com-  !

~

pursuant to any changed activity since the initial antitrust operating license review.

l After reviewing the updated Regulatory Guide 9.3 information and contacting various electric utility representatives in Illinois and other interested  !

t parties, staff identified several changes in the applicants' activities '

(principally those of Illinois Power Company) since the initial operating (

license review. Many of the changes, e.g., new interconnections and partial requirements wholesale power sales, by' Illinois Power Company, represented t

extensions of those changes identified in the original operating license  !

' ~

successfully " shop" for alternative sources of power and energy. Applicants Illinois Power Company, Soyland Power Cooperative, Inc. and Western Illinois Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. have initiated a study to determine whether or not future jointly owned generating facilities would be economically feasible.

New transmission agreements have been consumai:ed between Illinois Power and its wholesale power customers that provide these smaller power systems

, with the means to take advantage of the benefits normally associated with larger, fully integrated power systems, e.g., access to short term econouy and diversity power and energy sales and access to transmission for long term block purchases of power and energy from a number of differer.t power suppliers.

\

Increased coordination between those fully integrated power systems and the smaller, less diversified power systems has led to greater competition in the i

Illinois bulk power industry. This trend toward greater coordination among industry participants began with the institution'of antitrust license condi-tions at the construction permit review stage.

The changes that have been identified since the construction permit review have by and large provided momentum for grea'ter coordination, and consequently I

increased competition, between all groups of power supply systems in central I

and southern Illinois. Staff observed this trend toward increased competition f among b'ulk power suppliers in its initial antitrust operating license analysis.  !

l This trend has continued since 1982 and consequently staff sees no reason to change its recommendation that "no affirmative significant change determina- l tion be made pursuant to the application for an operating license for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station."  !

I. Introduction -

i

Unlike the procedure established for review of construction permits, prospective operating licensees are not required to undergo formal antitrust reviews unless the NRC staff 1 has made the determination that there have been "significant changes" in the licensee's activities or proposed activities subsequent to the review by the Attorney General and the Commission at the construction permit (CP) stage.2 -
The Commission in its recent Summer 8 decision has provided the staff with a set of criteria to be used in making the significant change determination for
prospective operating license (OL) applicants.

"T.'.: -t-tuta contemplates that the change or changes, (1) have

} occurred since the previous antitrust review of the licensee (s);

l (2) are reasonably attributable to the licensee (s); and (3) have 1

L antitrust implications that would most likely warrant some '

Commission remedy."4 -

i -

l 1

To warrant an affirmative significant change finding, i.e., triggering a formal l l OL antitrust review, the particular change (s) must meet all three of these i criteria'.  !

Staff has documented two groupings of " changes" in its analysis of the Clinton ,

, OL application that warrant analysis under Summer: 1) those resulting from the  ;

'This responsibility was officially delegated to the Director of Nuclear l Reactor Regulation in a memorandum dated September 12, 1979 from Chairman  !

Hendrie to the Directors of NRR and NMSS.  !

I applicant's CP license conditions; and 2) those not directly resultant from the r i

CP license conditions. Staff has found no change in either group that meets l 6

all three Summer criteria and consequently is not recommending a formal OL i antitrust review. -  !

4  :

To put these changes in prospective, it is helpful to first resiew the structure [

of the market pertinent to this review and the basis or benchmark from which  !

change is measured.

l Structure of the Electric Power Industry in Illinois  !

II. i The electric power industry in Illinois can be segmented into two portions, that integral to the City of Chicago and its surrounding area, and the remainder ,

of the state.

.I' I

The Chicago area is serviced by one of the largest domestic electric power  ;

! companies, Commonwealth Edison Company. The remainder of the state (i.e.,

l from the north central portion, to the southern tip of the state) is serviced l by a group of power companies including municipal, cooperative and private power companies.

! The relevant marketing area for the Clinton Nuclear Power Station focuses  !

~

on the central and southern portions of the State of Illinois, i.e., the area in which the incidence of any anticompetitive practices associated with the

activities of the Clinton Applicants will have the greatest impact. This is  ;

! theareainwhichthethreeapplicantsserve.andtheareawherethe.useof_..I the power and energy generated by the Clinton nuclear plant will be most i

concentrated.

l A. Investor-Owned Utility Systems (IOU)

I

1. Illinois Power Company (Illinois Power)  !

transmission facilities and electric load served. In 1979, Illinois Power had  !

1 7AQ Mw of Canerating Capacity; 2,448 miles of transmission lines 69 kv or f

higher; and a (summer) peak load of 3,019 N. -

. I i

Illinois Power's service area is concentrated in the central and southern  !

portions of the state, where roughly 80% of its revenues are generated--the remainder of the Company's operating revenues comes from properties 1.ocated j in the northern portion of the state. The three geographic service areas are i non-contiguous, however they are all linked by company-owned high voltage ,

j- transmission lir.es as well as with interconnections to other power companies in the area. (See map of Illinois Power's service area, included as Appendix A.)

5 j Illinois Power's operating revenues for 1979 andunted to $752 million l

l (approximately 65 percent from electric operations and 35 percent from gas

) tacility operations), with not income of $91 million.

1 i 2. Central Illinois Public Service Company (Central Illinois) l i t Outside of the Chicago area, in the lower two-thirds of the State, Central I I Illinois is the second largest 100 following closely behind Illinois Power [

l in generating and transmission facilities owned and electric load served.  !

In 1979 , Central Illinois owned or controlled 2,581 Mw of generating capacity; j l 3,581 miles of transmission Ifne 69 kv or higher; and had a summer peak load .  !

, Central Illinois and Illinois Power are the principal producers of electric l

power and energy in the southern two-thirds of the state. Each system is ,

l fully integrated and the two systems are also interconnected extensively by f

high voltage and extra high voltage transmission ties.  !

i i I P

I

! 3 [

i

3. Central Illinois Light Company (Central Illinois Light)

Central Illinois Light's service area is primarily in the central portion of the state centering around the cities of Peoria and Springfield, Illinois.

Although the Company is one of the smaller IOUs in the state, it has inter-connections with Central Illinois Public Service, Commonwealth Edison, . Illinois Power and the City of Springfield electric system to provide for interchange of electric energy on an emergency and mutual help basis.

In 1979 Central Illinois Light had generating capacity of 1,501 Mw, 339 miles of transmission line 69 kv or higher and a summer peak load of 1,055 Mw. The Company's 1979 operating revenues amounted to $364 million with a net income of $53 million.

4. Electric Energy. Inc.

The Company was incorporated in Illinois in 1950 by four private utility 8

companies to supply a specified amount of firm power to an Atomic Energy Commission project near Paducah, Kentucky.

Electric Energy Inc. is interconnected with the four sponsoring companies and with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). Electric Energy, Inc. does not represent an integral competitive system in the area ~primarily because all power in, excess to that supplied to tee Federal installation in Paducah is contracted to each of the sponsoring companies in amounts equal to their ownership shares.

In 1979 Electric Energy, Inc. had generating capacity of 1,100 Mw, and 55 miles of transmission lines above 69 Kv. Of the total generating capacity available, 735 Mw has been contracted to the government facility through December 31, 1989. Operating revenues amounted to $124 million with $3 million net income for 1979.

"The sponsoring companies are: Central Illinois Public Service Company, 20%

3 ownership; Illinois Power Company, 20% ownership; Kentucky utilities Company,

20% ownership and Union Electric Company, 40% ownership.

I l

4 1

Of the 12 investor-owned utilities doing business in Illinois, those mentioned above represent the largest in terms of load served and the most relevant for purposes of assessing competition in the electric power industry in the state outside of the Chicago area.7

  • B. Municipal Electric Systems Twenty-Three of the thirty-eight municipally owned electric systems in the state possess some degree of self generation.s Of these twenty-three systems, the largest is that owned and operated by the City of Springfield, Illinois with 530 Mw of capacity in 1979. Most of the remaining generating municipals are very small and typically supply only portions of their loads, purchasing the remainder from other suppliers -- usually the larger IOU's throughout the State. (This is typical of the structural format for the industry nationwide, with the larger private investor-owned companies supplying varying amounts of partial requirement service to the smaller self generating utilities and full requ'rements service to those municipals or cooperatives with no generation.

There are however, pockets throughout the industry where very large municipal or government systems, e.g. , in the City of 1.os Angeles or the TVA throughout the State of Tennessee respectively, where the private systems do not represent the predominant source of power and energy, buk, these areas represent exceptions to the norm.) None of the municipal systems in Illinois is a co-owner of the

, Clinton nuclear plant, however, many of the systems have benefited from the license conditions attached to the Clinton construction permit. See section entitled, " Changes Since the Construction Permit Review." .

'The other 100's operating within the state are: Cedar Point Light and Water Company, Mt. Carmel Public Utility Company, Sherrard Power System, South .

Beloit Water, Gas and Electric Company, Interstate Power Company, Union i Electric Company and Iowa-Illinois Gas and Electric Company. (Though most of Electric Energy, Inc.'s load is outside of the state much of the excess i capacity produced by the Company goes to members operating in the relevant area.) ,

sSee Appendix B for a listing of all municipal generating systems located in

, the State of Illinois.

5 l

j C. Cooperative Power Systems (Coops) l There are thirty rural electric coops in the state of Illinois, two of which are co-owners of the Clinton nuclear plant, i.e, Soyland Power Cooperative, Inc. (Soyland) and Westera Illinois Power Cooperative, Inc. (WIPCO). The

! majority of the coops are distribution coops and have no generation or trans- f mission facilities of their own. They are characteristically supplied by the  !

private IOU's or larger generation and transmission (G&T) coops serving in ,

! the area.

)

i 4 Presently, there are two G&T coops in the state, WIPCO and the Southern Illinois Power Cooperative (SIPCO). SIPC0 had generating capacity of 280 N j

in 1979 with 100 miles of transmission line supplying its three distribution I i

cooperatives at wholesale. In 1979 WIPC0 had generating capacity of 57 N and 545 miles of transmission line.

j Soyland is an organization (which presently has no generation or transmission ,

j facilities) set up to acquire a 10.5% interest in Clinton Unit 1. It is com-  !

l prised of fifteen member distribution coops' located in the central and southern t

portions of the State of Illinois -- essentially, the non-Chicago area of the f

, State. Once Soyland Power Coop (Soyland) begi'ns taking Clinton nuclear power, I it too will function as a G&T coop supplying its member systems with wholesale  !

i bulk power.

! . i III. The Construction Permit Antitrust Review ,

i I

In order to make a "significant change" determination it is necessary to have j 4

some benchmark from which to measure " change." A brief resume of the results  !

I l of the CP review should provide an adequate framework in which change can be -

f measured.

i Illinois Power Company, the principal applicant and operator of the Clinton

{

Plant, applied for a construction permit to build its first nuclear power j plant in 1973. Like all other non grandfathered nuclear applicants (those }

applicants seeking cps or OLs after the 1970 amendment), Illinois Power had f

to undergo an antitrust review at the CP stage to insure that its activities  !

in connection with the construction of the plant did not " create or maintain j a situation inconsistent with the antitrust laws" -- as prescribed by Sec. 105c of the amended Atomic Energy Act of 1954.

l During the review process, the staff's of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and

the AEC/NRC became aware of certain allegations of misconduct by Illinois Power

) in conjunction with its dealings with cooperative and municipal power systems i in or adjacent to Illinois Power's service area. These concerns were addressed l by the Department in a letter to the AEC requesting additional information

! from the Applicant:

1 i

j "Among the alleged matters with possible antitrust implications

! which the Department [of Justice] seeks to clarify by means of the requested documents are: refusals of the Applicant to inter- I j connect with other electric utilities on reasonable terms; efforts i to preclude development of alternative bulk power supply sources  !

l by others; acquisitions of other electric utilities; refusals to  !

wheel power for small systems; allocation of territories and  !

j res,trictions on end use of purchased power."10 l

l .

l After submitting additional clarifying data in response to D0J's document j request and after the anticompetitive concerns were aired, the Applicant agreed j to a set of policy commitments that were attached as license conditions to j j its construction permit for Units 1 and 2 of the Clinton nuclear plant.

. Generally, the policy commitments addressed the following areas: 11

a. Illinois Power (Company) will interconnect with any neighboring entity i

and will assist in coordination of reserves and the sale of emergency and l

maintenance power to interconnected entitites;

b. Interchange arrangements between the Company and neighboring entities will lI not include restrictive provisions which would preclude a party from i engaging in interconnection and :oordination arrangements with others;
c. Interconnectons will be available for a neighboring electric system on  ;

any of the Company's installed transmission and subtransmission facilities; i

d. The Company will afford an opportunity to participate to any neighboring

electric system that makes a timely request therefor in the ownership (or i l unit power purchase) of the Clinton nuclear plant or any other nuclear  !

j plant owned by the Company which is scheduled for commercial operation j

prior to January 1, 1989;  ;

On the' strength of these policy commitments, and with the expectation that the Commission will include them as conditions to the license, we conclude that an antitrust hearing will not be necessary with respect to the instant application.us2 The Attorney General's advice letter was published in the Federal Register in May of 1974. Since no petitions to intervene were received, the CP antitrust review effectively ended with the publication of the Attorney General's advice letter, although the construction permit was not issued until February of 1976.

l IV. Changes Since the Construction Permit Review The Commission's Regulatory Guide 9.3 for OL applicants requests data pertaining

te changed activities since the CP antitrust review
'

)' "This regulatory Guide identifies the type of information that i

i the Regulatory staff considers germane for a decision as to

, whether a second antitrust review is required at the operating license stage."

4 By letter of May 23, 1980 the principal applicant, Illinois Power Company, submitteo on behalf of itself and as agent for the co-owners, Soyland Power Coop. and Western Illinois Power Coop. , responses to the Commission's 9.3 data request.

From staff's review of the 9.3 data response and analysis of various public I

information sources, two distinct types of " changes" since the CP review

'3 Appendix E, 00J " advice" letter dated April 29, 1974, pp. 4-5.  :

i l

have been isolated: 1) changes resultant from implementation of CP license conditions; and 2) changes not directly related to the CP license conditions.

A. Changes Resulting from License Conditions .

Many of the changed activities which have occurred in the Illinois electric power industry since the CP antitrust rev..w have resulted from extensive negotiations between the larger IOU's, the smaller municipal and cooperative systems and various governmental agencies concerning various forms of coordin-

! ation and power supply. u The fruits of these negotiations have been realized by many of the smaller systems in the area. For example:

1) Several municipal generating systems have obtained interconnection agreements with Illinois Power Company, agreements that were similar to j those Illinois Power already had with its neighboring investor-owned
electric systems. Although the interconnection agreements were imple-I mented after the CP review terminated in 1974, they were directly related to requirements imposed by license conditions negotiated i

during the CP antitrust review; l .

I 2) The same municipals which sought in'terconnection agreements from Illinois Power have recently opted to take partial requirement

- wholesale service rather than taking service under the provisions of 'I

the previously negotiated interconnection agreements. This represents l

l a new option for these systems; .  ;

i t

3) Illinois Power entered into an interconnection agreement with the  ;

electric system operated by the City of Springfield, Illinois; l I

4) Two smaller power companies, Soyland and Western Illinois Power Coops, j have purchased ownership shares of the Clinton Nuclear Plant, thereby sharing in the benefits of a large, fuel efficient baseload power plant; l l l

" Illinois Power is also currently involved in several rate proceedings with  !

I various Illinois municipals before the FERC. These issues were current during '

the CP review and consequently do not involve changes since that review. ,

For a brief description of these proceedings, see Appendix F. ,,

t

5) The City of Waterloo, Illinois opted for a partial requirement j

, wholesale power agreement rather than agreeing to an offer of purchase  !

l (of its electric system) by Illinois Power; }

.  ?

l

6) Illinois Power received interconnection requests from the Villages l i

of Flora and Chatas, Illinois and from the Farmer City, 1111'ois n f

electric system;

} {

i  !

7) The City of Springfield, Illinois has approached WIPC0 regarding

{ possible participation in a joint generating plant; and, l

8) As a result of WIPCO's 138 kv tie with , Illinois Power in 1978, the i

Coop became a member of NAPSIC (North American Power Systems Inter-

{ ,

connection Committee) a data gathering organization formed to ensure l l acceptable levels of operation and reliability of its members.

i ,

i, I t

j Altnougn tne above changes have occurred subsequent to the CP antitrust review, j they were anticipated during that review as reflected in the CP license condi-

! tions. Thus, in so far as the changes are consistent with those license l

(

) conditions, they do not connote changes in the " proposed activities" of the j Applicant. Consequently, staff needs only to " assure itself that these changes l are indeed consistent with the license conditions.

1

(

i As discussed earlier, the license conditions attached to the Clinton construction ~

permit were structured to remedy certain allegations of anticompetitive conduqt

> - - by-Illinois Power. Generally, the license conditions were-designed-to-increase----l i

the alternatives and opportunities of smaller systems in central and southern {

Illinois in their quest in seeking and obtaining sources of power supply, and

{

specifically to facilitate both the sharing of nuclear power and the ancillary J 4

functions of power supply that make baseload nuclear desirable. By increasing l coordination between the various industry participants (notably the large and t

f j small systems), the newly acquired competitive alternatives listed above, have become significant (beneficial) determinants in the planning processes of

smaller power systems in central and southern Illinois. Moreover, the l implementation of the license conditions has had positive performance effects  !

I l

i  !

. n 1 l

on the availability of bulk power supply in central and southern Illinois, and ,

should any antitrust significance be attributed to these activities, it would

be constructive, i.e., not requiring any remedial action by the Commission.

] 8. Chances Not Resulting from License Conditions There have been changes in the electric power industry in central and southern j Illinois not directly attributable to the Clinton CP license conditions. 1 These changed activities, documented by the 9.3 response, have not detrimentally i affected the competitive process among electric power systems in the relevant marketing area. Moreover, these changed activities have had no negative anti-trust implications that would trigger a "significant change determination" as

interpreted by the Commission in Summer. The changes are as follows:  !

i

! 1) The addition of new members to the Mid-American Interpool Network e

(MAIN):

a) The Municipal Electric Utilities of Wisconsin, b) Soyland Power Cooperative, Inc., and 1 .

c) Western Illinois Power Cooperative, Inc.

, Normally, the addition of new members to operating power pools i directly increases the coordination and cooperation among power ,

systems in common or adjacent marketing areas. Even though the MAIN l pool is basically a regional planning organization with little or no i control over the operating practices of its members, the addition of i

the three new systems will enable them to participate in periodic planning sessions among regional systems and generally become more familiar with new generation and transmission planned for the area.

The admission of these new members to MAIN is a change since the CP l review, however, this change is procompetitive and consequently does f not satisfy the remaining two Summer criteria, i.e., attributable to l the applicant and having negative antitrust implications;  ;

i l u i

- . - - - . _ _ - - - _ - - _ - - .- J

i i

2) Joint planning among Scyland Power Coop. , Western Illinois Power

l

, These three G&T cooperatives (Soyland will become a G&T 'once it  !

begins to receive Clinton power) have joined together to disucss the l

possibility of constructing various size coal-fired generating plants {

l in the late 1980s. Soyland has already contracted with the Peabody

{

! Coal Company for a one hillion dollar, thirty year supply of coal for [

its plar.t to be built in Pike County, Illinois in the late 1980s. "

~

4 I

This type of joint planning and development is indicative of I i

i competitive forces at work within the bulk power market. By joining i

! forces, these relatively small power suppliers are able to build a f generating plant that will provide the benefits of large baseload I power normally reserved for the large 100s in the industry. The f

j increase in coordination, and cooperation among these firms has l l provided more meaningful competition between the large and the not i

so large power generating systems in central and southern Illinois.

1 Only the first Summer criterion is met by this change, i.e., the l planning has occurred since the CP review. The joint planning is l

not attributable to the applicant no'r does it carry any negative l

l antitrust implications that would likely be remedied.by the Commission.  !

1 j 3) , Illinois Power's new retail rate structure was redesigned to encourage l

off peak usage on its system. Many systems throughout the country .

l have instituted this retail rate structure in an attempt to ward off i or delay construction of costly new generating plants and to level j their system loads throughout the year. The Commission has no j jurisdiction over retail rate structure and would not likely impose f

l any remedy if a dispute over retail rates ever arose. (Certain rate l l

l conflicts may fall within the purview of the Commission, e.g., when i

! a wholesale rate and a retail rate are manipulated by an applicant to impose a'" squeeze" on customers, however, this is not the case l l

with the change instituted by Illinois Power);  !

4) Illinois Power has made offers to acquire three electrfc power systems since the completion of the CP review: the City of Waterloo, the Vil'lage of Ladd and the private system supplying '

the City of Mt. Carmel (all Illinois systems). In view-of Illinois Power's history of acquiring smaller electric systems in its area, it is important to fully consider these proposole, particularly in the context of the third Summer criterion.

i.e., negative antitrust implications.

Prior to the institution of the CP license cenditions, Illinois ,

Power's prospective acquisition partners did not have the option '

1 of purchasing partial requirements power and thereby remaining  ;

more viable, independent power entities while at the same time

meeting the future needs of their customers. The Clinton license conditions provided the smaller systems in the relevant marketing j i

area with an alternative to acquisition. The municipal systems l

{

located in central and southern Illinois can now conduct feasi- f bility studies and determine if they can provide efficient and reliable service to their customers with various forms of sup-port available from Illinois Power Co., without being acquired i by Illinois Power. (Support Illinois Power has offered other

l interconnected systems in its area for years.) However, if i t

~

these studies indicate that remaining in the electric power  ;

' industry is no longer feasible for the municipal, they may l then choose to sell out to Illinois Power.

  • i l

j The systems serving Mt. Carmel and the Village of Ladd are very small and the City of Waterloo has exercised its

{

recently obtained option and requested a partial  !

i requirement service agreement from Illinois Power, in lieu of being acquired, under the negotiated " Agreement I for Purchase of Power," dated May 1,1979. In this light, l

14 i i

L

i Illinois Power's recent overtures to purchase the electric facilities in Ladd, Waterloo and Mt. Carmel do meet the first two Summer {

. M teria -- the activity has occurred since the CP review and is  :

1 attributable to the Applicant -- however, the proposed a'cquisitions  !

do not appear to detrimentally affect the competitive process in .

t

t central and southern Illinois -- thereby failing to meet the third i Summer criterion dealing with significant antitrust implications j capable of being remedied by the Commission. Consequently, these  !

overtures of acquisition do not invoke a significant change f determination; and lastly,  !

l

5) A group of time-related changes has been documented since the CP 1

antitrust review. This grouping of changed activity is characterized l  !

j by variations in system load and individual growth patterns and is l

largely dependent upon economic conditions within the service area

! of each individual system. These changes are as follows: {

t a) Western Illinois Power Coop (WIPCO) has planned to add new generating capacity to its system by adding a new 100 W coal plant in 1988; f

{

5 I

b) WIPCO reduced the size of a newly planned turbine plant from 75 Mw to 72 Mw and slipped the planned on line date from 1985 to 1986, l

  • I c) WIPCO's projected annual load factor for 1979 was projected in, i 1973 at 53, however, .the actual. load _ factor- for--the system for- i 1 ----H
1979 was 50.9;

, i l

d) WIPC0's peak load increased from 42 Mw in 1978 to approximately.  !

l 45 Mw in 1979; l

! (

) e) Illinois Power's peak load and generating capability have  !

changed since 1976. Met Generating capability increased from j

approximately 3,400 Mw in 1976 to approximately 3,800 Mw in 1980, while peak load increased from 2,570 Mw to 3,150 h over {

i the same period; and, i

f) Soyland Power Cooperative has announced plans to construct a baseload coal-fired plant in Pike County, Illinois to go on l line in the late 1980s.

. 1 The above changes meet the first two Summer criteria but not the third, i.e.,

the changes have occurred since the CP review and are attributable to 'the  !

Applicant (s), however, none of the changes has negative antitrust implications [

i and would not require Commission remedy.

t In sum: -within the two groups of changes, those related and those unrelated l to CP license conditions, staff has not identified any instances that satisfy ,

all three of the Summer criteria. Consequently, it is the staff's opinion f that no affirmative significant change determination be made pursuant to f

Applicants' application for an OL for the Clinton nuclear plant.  !

'J  :

V. Summary and Conclusion  !

t

} The principal applicant, Illinois Power Company, represents the largest power i system in the relevant marketing area. Additions of large baseload power plants I and increases in accompanying transmission facilities generally tend to increase i tha oversight or planning role of the' larger systems in a particular marketing (

area, i.e., usually enhancing any existing market power of the system.  !

I i 1

i By subjecting all nuclear applicants to an antitrust review at the CP stage,

the NRC via its Section 105c charge, prevents the economies associated with  !

{ 1arge baseload nuclear plants from being captured by only the largest power systems throughout the country, thereby thwarting increases in existing market  !

power. During the Clinton CP antitrust review, it became apparent that Illinois  !

i Power had been less than cooperative with smaller power systems in its service i area and adjacent areas. Consequently, a set of antitrust license conditions  !

was attached to the Clinton construction permit which was designed to implement [

l greater coordination between Illinois Power and smaller municipal'and cooperative  !

t 3 systems in the relevant area - thereby furthering the competitive process  !

among these same power systems. The economies associated with the Clinton  !

nuclear plant and those linked to Illinois Power's integrated network of power  !

i

! supply were subsequently made available to smaller systems in the area.  ;

16 l I

I 4, .

I Staff has identified a' number of changes that (1) have occurred since the  !

construction pemit antitrust review, and (2) are reasonably attributable to l thelicensee(s). However, many of these changes are in confomance with the construction pemit antitrust license conditions and have had positive. perfor- [

mance effects on the availability of bulk power supply and on competition in f the area generally. Other changes which have occurred, have not had significant negative antitrust implications that would likely warrant a Commission remedy, f

and therefore do not warrant a significant change finding.

Based upon the successful implementation of CP license conditions and the lack of any detrimental conduct or activity (to the competitive process in central i and southern Illinois) on the part of Illinois Power Company, Soyland Power f t,

Cooperative or Western Illinois Power Cooperative, staff recommends that no j

affimative significant change detennination be made pursuant to the application

{

ror an operating license for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Power Station.  :

APPENDIX F: FERC Litigation Involving Illinois Power Company -

I l Wholesale Rate Proceedings t Illinois Power and several municipalities in Illinois have been involved in  ;

various rate proceedings before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and its predecessor agency, the Federal Power Commission (FPC). Many l

of the issues raised by the cities originated in the late 1960s and early i

1970s and were resultant in part from Illinois Power's reluctance to offer  !

power and back-up services to many smaller systems in its service area and }

,j also as a result of the oil squeeze beginning in the winter of 1973. It is staff's opinion that the issues raised during these proceedings to date were

, current at the time of the CP antitrust review and for this reason do not  !

j represent changes (in activities or proposed activities) since the CP review. l

! Moreover, the issues raised by the intervening parties addressed rate matters f

1 and would be more properly aired before the FERC, i.e. , any negative antitrust

  • those prevailing in interconnection agreements between the Company

[ Illinois Power] and its neighboring utilities."1 This case was settled in 1974 after 1111riois Power agreed to t'he municipals' request for interconnection agreements. At about the same time, Illinois Power agreed to a set of policy commitments (which later became formal license conditions attached to the C1,inton construction permit) with the Department of Justice which required Ill'inois Power, inter alia, to offer interconnections to neighboring power systems.

~

Subsequent to the municipalities' obtaining interconnections with Illinois Power, the oil embargo reached its peak and placed intense capacity and cost burdens on their systems. (Their systems were largely comprised of oil-fired peaking facilities.) The municipal systems requested long-term power supply 4

arrangements under existing interconnection agreements with Illinois Power, to assure continuous operation and reliability of their systems and to limit radical upward movements in their costs of supplemental power requirements in future years. At issue before the FERC at present is the rate at which the

=:.icip:1: would pay for the partial requirements power only recently offered by Illinois Power. -

According to Illinois Power, the rate schedule under which the municipals had been taking service was not designed for long-term continuous reservations of capacity, i.e. , the type of service proposed by the municipals, because energy charges were unpredictable due to the incremental nature of the costs attribu-table to said reservations -- Illinois Power alleged that energy charges were a function of hour-by-hour load conditio'ns and capacity availability. The incrementa,1 cost issue was resolved when Illinois Power agreed to offer the municipals a partial requirement power agreement (also required by the license 2 Letter from 5. L.

periods and based upon fuel costs incurred by the company's plants during the period the contract,is in force.

  • In a sepa.ote proceeding, two municipal ejectric systems (Citie's of Ladd and Oglesby) and one small private distribution system (Cedar Point, Li.ght and Water Company) (all total requirements customers of Illinois Power) have intervened before the FERC to protest a }976 wholesale rate increase by the Company (Dkt. E-9520). The principal contention of the intervenors was that-Illinois Power could not unilaterally rai,se rates under their existing contracts with the Company. Ultimately, the D.C' . Court of Appeals ruled "in favor of the two Cities and against Cedar Point Light stating that Illinois Power's contract with Cedar Point Light permitted unilateral raising of rates by Illinois Power.

This decision reversed the FERC order regarding Cedar Point. The FERC has yet to respond to the Court of Appeals decision which was issued on August 21, 1979.

i In a similar rate proceeding involving the same parties (ER77-531), the intervenors petitioned the FERC requesting relief from another wholesale rate increase by Illinois Power in 1977. The FERC recently ruled upon this inter-vention8 by granting Illinois Power a two-tier rate increase.

Here again, the issues in dispute were FERC issues and not'NRC related issues and they were resolved accordingly.

t Moreover, the nature of these proceedings rests solely on justification of wheeling rates and it is staff's position that the actual determination of rates rests more within the jurisdiction of the FERC and not the NRC. Conse-quently, staff believes that the issues raised in the generic Order No. 84

, proceedings would not invoke antitrust implications that would warrant remedy by the NRC.

CLINTON NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 1 -- OL MONITORING REVIEW Construction delays have become connon place for the nuclear power industry.

l Applicants have delayed construction completion of facilities for months and l

l sometimes several years frora the time they initially have requested an operating license. From the standpo'nt of our significant change review, these delays create voids in the review process 1f the OL significant change review is

completed far in advance of the construct 19n completion date. In the instant  !

i

. case, the significant change review was completed in February of 1982 while l the construction completion date has been moved back to August 1984--leaving  ;

a two and one half year void in the review process (one and a half years longer i than our one year lead cime). To remedy this chronic problem. AEAS has developed a " monitoring review" procedure that fills this void through periodic contact with pertinent power entities and research of public data, i.e., trade and related periodicals. .

j , Staff completed its operating license significant change determination ,

(significant change) for Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Plant on February 23 .

1982. The review c'oncluded that no significant antitrust changes had occurred since the completion of the construction permit (CP) antitrust review in May i

of 1974. The no significant change determination was published in the Federal Register on March 11. 1982.

The function of the significant change analysis is two-fold in that it.1) captures j any changes in applicants' competitive activities since the CP review. and 2) reduces '

7/ Applicants include: IllinoisPowerCo.(leadapplicant).SoylandPower Tooperative. Inc. and Western Illinois Power Cooperative. Inc. -

. . s  ;

the probability of a full-fledged antitrust review at the OL stage. Certain antitrust license conditions were attached to the Clinton cps which,were designed to implement greater coordination between Illinois Power Co. (IP) t and smaller power entities in central and southern Illinois. These conditions l generally required IP to interconnect, participate in baseload nuclear plants,  !

wheel power and sell bulk power to neighboring entities. With these conditions

! in mind, staff has initiated contact (telephonic) with several municipal power systems in and/or adjacent to IP's service area in an effort to determine if i

any changes in IP's activities (of a competitive nature) have taken place since I I

the original significant change dete_rmination was made in February of 1982.

City Systems  ;

i

') The city systems ranged in site from Farmer City. Illinois with a peak load  !

i of approximately 4.5W to the' City of Springfield. Illinois with generating i capacity of over 500W and a system peak of approximately 338W. Fanmer City i

is involved in interconnection negotiations with Illinois Power., The represen-

, tative of the system contacted indicated that negotiations were continuing and f that Illinois Power wanted the City as a customer and the only roadblock to the  ;

interconnection to 'date has been attributable to difficulties in obtaining fina'nc- i r

I ing for construction of the necessary facilities.  ;

{

l TheCityofChatham, Illinois (peakloadofapproximately10W)requestedan

' 1 interconnection with Illinois Power in 1979, about the same time its wholesale '

supply contract was to expire with Central Illinois Light Co. The interconnection i was not built, according to the Mayor because IP refused to finance the entire  !

construction cost of the required seven mile intertie line. When asked if the City considered wheeling IP power (in lieu of constructing the direct tie line)  !

l

! l i

over Central Illinois Light's (CILCO) lines, the Mayor said yes and that IP l t

l was willing, but the wheeling charges imposed by CILCO would have made the i transaction uneconomical. According to the Mayor, the City negotiated a l

i

! settlement with its existing supplier (CILCO) through 1986 that was very i

l favorable to the City. The City was faced with expiration of its wholesale  !

supply contract and after shopping around, ultimately negotiated a new contract f t

j with its existing supplier. Illinois Power's responses to the City's requests l do not appear anticompetitive--IP offered to wheel its power but did not feel l 8

it cost efficient to construct and finance a long intsrtie to a relatively I

J small load. (Moreover, the Mayor indicated that he had not had any contact l

j with Illinois Power in the last 18-24 months--our monitoring is concerned with l I

g the last 12 months.)

i tions when available (the City usually sells more to IP than IP to City). IP i and the City also compete for wholesale loads, e.g., they share a common tie I l with Western Illinois Power Cooperative and the coop has been served by both suppliers in the past. During 1982, the City purchased more power from IP than l it sold, however, this was primarily due to an emergency outage on the City's l t

4 system in March of 1982 that lasted about three months. During this period, [

, Illinois Power supplied the City with both emergency and maintenance power. The City has also made use of IP transmission lines by wheeling over them in a sale l

of power to a neighboring private utility. According to the superintendent, i the city hat enioyed a good working relationship with Illinois Power Co. [

f i

j These four cities were chosen for individual contact in the monitoring program l 4

because of their diversity.in size and integration and because some had

~

experienced difficulty in dealing with Illinois Power Co. in the past. The f

responses from thes,e cities indicate that in terms of its dealing with smaller -

i  !

{ systems in its service area, Illinois Power has not engaged in any anticompet-  !

I itive activity that would warrant staff changing its significant change  !

l '

l l determination reached in February of 1982. (See notes of telephone conver-J. . ,

sations attached to this memorandun.)  !

Mt. Carmel Mercer e ,

i As mentioned in staff's significant change analysis, Illinois Power tendered  !

l < 1 an offer to acquire a privately-owned, small electric system serving'the City j of Mt. Carmel, Illinois. The acquisition has yet to be conswanated and in fact  !

l t

d is being held up by the state commerce commission. The acquisition is not being challenged under competitive reasons, but for reasons that pertain to reliability and serviceabil.ity to existing customers. Staff still feel's this acquisition by IP poses no significant threat (or change since the February review for that matter) to competition in the bulk power industry in central and southern Illinois. .

In sum: Because of a~ delay"in issbing the Clinton Unit 1 OL staff has reviewed Illinois Power's activities since last conducting its significant change analysis approximately a year ago. No one has come forth to request reevaluation of staff's significant change determination, nor have there been any submissions of complaints or views of affected parties durina the interim since February 1982.

After reviewina industry trade journals and initiatino contact with power entities in the relevant area, staff, as of thi,s date, has found no reason to amend its "no significant change" determination pursuant to Unit 1 of the Clinton Nuclear Station.

Farmer City Illinois (January 13,1983)

Contact:

Mr. Richard Hardesty. Assistant Superintendent '

Electric Department Phone f: (309)928-3421 During the significant change review staff noted that Farmer City had requested an interconnection with Illinois Power Co. (IP). According to Mr. Hardesty, the City was still negotiating with IP for the intertie and the only thing holding up construction was obtaining financing. Hardesty stated that IP wanted the City as a customer and the company was not holding

! up construction of the entertie.

City of Chatham Illinois (January 18,1983)  !

Contacts: T. Kaufman, Superintendent John Whitney, Mayor -

l Phone #: (217) 483-2451 l

The City had requested an interconnection with Illinois Power Co. (IP) in i late 1979 and early 1980. I phoned the City to ascertain the status of this interconnection request. -

I originally telephoned Mr. Kaufman, however he referred me to the Mayor, i

Mr. John Whitney, as he was the principal negotiator dealing with IP. I left a message with Mr. Kaufman for the Mayor to phone me when he returned

- to the office. He returned my call later in the morning.

I asked him if he ever consummated the interconnection he requested from IP

  • i in 1979-80. He said no, because IP was unwilling to pay for the cost of constructing the seven mile tie necessary to serve the City.

I asked the Mayor if he had considered having the IP power wheeled to the .

City over the existing Chatham/ Central Illinois Light Co. intertie (i.e., the City's existing supplier). He said he had looked into it but decided that the wheeling charge quoted by CILCO was exorbitant and would make the transaction uneconcaical.

l The request for an interconnection with IP came about after the City's wholesale 4

supply contract had expired with CILCO -- the City was searching for an alternative power source to CILCO.

According to the Mayor,'the City negotiated a settlement with CILC0 through 1986 which was very favorable to the City--i.e., in terms of rate increases over the life of the contract.

Mayor Whitney stated that he hadn't had any contact with IP in the last 18-24 months. Although the City is now taking all of its power from CILCO, the Mayor stated that when it comes time to negotiate a new supply contrast he would contact WIPCO (Western Illinois Power Coop) which had just built a

transmission line near the City as well as other surrounding systems capable of serving the City. (These include CILCO, CIPSCO (Central Illinois Public  !

l Service Co.) City of Springfield and IP.)  !

l i

In sum: the Mayor has had no contact with IP since staff's significant change  !

review was completed in March of 1982, therefore no changes can be attributed to IP activity in regards to the City of Catham since this determination was i made, t

City of Waterloo, Illinois (January 24. 1983)

Contact:

Mr. P. Schlemmer, Superintendent of Electric Department Phone f: (618)939-6413 During the significant change review staff noted that the City of Waterloo had recently begun taking power from Illinois Power Co. (IP) -- in lieu of being acquired by IP. Staff contacted the City to ascertain the present relationship between the two systems.

According to Schlemmer the City is now taking all of its power requirements from IP with the option of peak shaving with its own generation during the sunner months. The City has no plans of adding any new generation of its own ,

and has considered wheeling over IP lines but hasn't negotiated anyth10 g firm l

to date. (Apparently Waterloo is among a group'of seven cities that negotiates  !

asonevoicewithIP.) Mr. Schlemmer stated that he was completely satisfied in his dealings with IP and that, "IP has power to sell and we want to buy."

l City of Springfield, Illinois (January 17,1983)

Contact:

Mr. L. Gladish, Superintendent of -

Electric Operations Phone f: (217)789-2120 I telephoned the superintendent of the Springfield utility division to inquire whether or not the City was having any specific difficulties in its dealings with Illinois Power Co. (IP). The City had recently energized an inter-connection with IP (late 1979) and given Springfield's substantial size, the City's input into staff's monitoring program seemed essential.

arenrM aa ta Mr Gladish, the City normally sells more power and energy to IP than purchases from IP. Presently, the City deals in short term power exch'anges with IP--c::n::::y exchanges and emergency and maintenance power exchanges.

(Prior to 5/80, the City had been under contract to supply 65MW/yr. of non-firm capacity to IP--primarily economy or diversity power.)

In 1982, because of an emergency in the City's system in March, Springfield purchased more energy from IP than it sold--51,000 mwhrs compared to 27,000 -

mwhrs. The City's entire system went out in March of 1982 requiring extensive maintenance that lasted about three months. During this period, IP supplied the City with emergency and maintenance power.

l Besides IP, the City has interties with Central Illinois Light Co. (CILCO) i and the Western Illinois Power Cooperative (WIPCO). When asked whether the City ever had occasion to use IP's transmission facilities, Mr. Gladish

1 .

, i described a recent sale to the Central Illinois Public Service Co. (CIPSCO),

which was facilitated by IP wheeling the power over its lines to CIPSCO.

Mr. Gladish noted that the City and IP compete for wholesale load with their common intertie to WIPCO. he stated that he has encountered no problems (with IP) in this relationship to date.

According to Mr. Gladish, the City solicited a share of the Clinton Nuclear Plant when it was in the construction planning stages (50MW). .He said IP gave the City a year to make up its mind, but the City council procrastinated too long and the proposed share was sold to another utility. (He thought the utility was WIPCO.)

Generally, Mr. Gladish stated that he had a good working relationship with Illinois Power Co.
