As we are well aware, GA has run into a problem with the decommissioning of Sequoyah Fuels Facility (SFC) (litigation with the l

Staff).

la addition, the cost of decommissioning the San Diego facility has risen from the 1995 guarantee amount provided

  • p '!

by GA of n ilion to about million.

GA's because o ongrassiona cut ack of researc l

programs.

sinking fund million per year until thelfJ

_)

of decommissioning the San Diego amount facility is reached.

There is also factored into this package a DOE contribution which f

has historically been paid for decommissioning of facilities which did DOE work.
