Attachment I ENOC-14-00006 (Page 1 of 1)
Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc.
Status of Funding for Managing Irradiated Fuel - Indian Point I For Year Ending December 31, 2013 - 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(vii)
Plant Name: Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 1
: 1. Funds accumulated to cover the                                            $ 142.64 million cost of managing irradiated fuel as of 12/31/2013                        [Note 1]
: 2. Projected costs to manage fuel until DOE removal (2013$)                  $ 84.41 million
: 3. Plan as required                                                          See Note 2 Note 1: This amount represents the excess funds available in the unit 1 decommissioning trust fund less an amount necessary to decommission the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). Per unit l's updated decommissioning cost analysis, the present value of excess funds in unit 1's decommissioning trust at the end of decommissioning (40-year operating life, maximum SAFSTOR period) in 2073 is $142.83 million. The estimated cost for decommissioning Indian Point 1 and 2's share of the site ISFSI is
           $2.004 million. Of the 53 casks from Indian Point 1 and 2 on the ISFSI, 5 are attributable to unit 1, or 9.4%. Unit l's share of ISFSI decommissioning cost is calculated as 9.4% x $2.004 million, or $0.19 million. Thus, the present value of unit 1 trust funds available for spent fuel management is $142.83 million minus $0.19 million, or $142.64 million. For purposes of this report only, Indian Point 1 trust funds are being considered separately from Indian Point 2 trust funds; however, both funds are covered by a single trust agreement, and will likely be handled together upon decommissioning.
Note 2: The excess currently existing in unit 1's decommissioning trust is sufficient to cover the estimated costs of spent fuel management. The licensee acknowledges the need for an exemption pursuant to 10 CFR &sect;50.12(a) to use radiological decommissioning trust funds for costs other than decommissioning activities as defined in 10 CFR 50.2.

Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc.
Status of Funding for Managing Irradiated Fuel - Big Rock Point For Year Ending December 31, 2013 - 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(vii)
Plant Name: Big Rock Point
: 1. Funds accumulated to cover the                                          See Note 1 cost of managing irradiated fuel as of 12/31/2013
: 2. Projected costs to manage fuel until DOE removal (2013$)              $ 57.55 million
: 3. Plan as required                                                      See Note 1 Note 1: Spent fuel management costs have been paid for out of Entergy Nuclear Palisades, LLC operating funds since Big Rock Point was acquired from Consumers Energy on April 11, 2007. Entergy Nuclear Palisades, LLC plans to continue paying for spent fuel management costs from said operating funds. Therefore, no funds are specifically accumulated for the cost of managing irradiated fuel as of 12/31/2013.}}
