Licensee's Response:
Even this is high, considering that the facility has been operated, upgraded, maintained, health physics services provided, etc. with a considerably smaller staff than indicated for decontamination.
The following table outlines projected sources of funding to cover the operating costs for fiscal years FY 2011 through 2015:
In addition, many of the items indicated as chargeable in the reference document are normal university overhead duties not borne specifically for the project in question.

License Fees 13,950 0,000 It is assumed that the university will remain exempted from the NRC licensing fees, so this item is zero for UWNR.Page 4 of 9 Cost Category Reference Estimate UWNR Estimate (1981$) (1981$)Subtotal 676,580 361,775 Contingency (25%) 169,150 90,445 TOTAL 845,730 452,220 The cost of spent fuel shipment was assumed to be paid per current fuel contract with the U.S. Department of Energy. Cost for facility demolition and site restoration is not included, since it is expectedthat, once the reactor is decontaminated, the site will be used for other university activities.
 
The 1990 projection for decommissioning costs in 2000 assumed the decommissioning began in June 2000 when the operating license was scheduled to expire. The 1990 cost estimate assumed an increase of 5% per year. The 5% figure was based on the importance of salary in the estimate and recent history on pay rates for academic staff and civil service employees of the university.
Licensee's Response:
Therefore the price above, in 1981 dollars, was expected to escalate by a factor of 2.65 over the 20 year period of 1981-2000.
The cost analysis that follows was submitted to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75 on July 19, 1990 and is reproduced in its entirety. The basis of the 1990 estimate was and the 2010 estimate still is NUREG/CR-1756.
Therefore the decommissioning cost of the facility was estimated to be $1.2 million in 2000.A more rigorous approach to address cost escalation using the inflation formula found in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(2) was used to determine the current decommissioning cost estimate, in 2010 dollars, to be $1,995,448.

Licensee's Response: The means of adjusting the cost estimate and associated funding level for decommissioning of the facility is by use of the inflation formula found in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(2).
Contaminated materials                                     60,600               30,300 Reduction by 50% due to smaller building size, with cooling system and auxiliary equipment compactly housed in one area.

Finally, the contamination level at UWNR is extremely low - even the estimate above would require a major fuel rupture to produce enough contamination to require the expenditure indicated.
Specifically, an adjustment factor equal to 0.65*L + 0.13*E + 0.22*B is used.where L and E are escalation factors for labor and energy, respectively, and taken from regional data from the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics and B is an escalation factor for waste burial taken from NUREG-1307.
Page 3 of 9
To update the initial cost estimate in 1981 dollars to 2010 dollars the labor escalation factor was derived from the Employee Cost Indices, series ID ECU133021 and CIU20100000002301(B) for non seasonally adjusted, total compensation, of private industry in the Midwest.L1981= 41.9 L20= 108.6 108.6 41.9 =2.592 It should be noted that the value of the Employee Cost Index for 1981 was taken from quarter 4 of 1982 data since no prior data was available and at the time of preparing these responses quarter 1 data for 2010 was not available and therefore quarter 4 data from 2009 was used.The escalation factor for energy is taken from NUREG-1307, revision 13, section 3.2 for the reference BWR to be: E = 0.54P + 0.46F Where P reflects escalation in industrial electric power and is derived from the Producer Price Index, series WPU0543, for non seasonally adjusted industrial electric power; and F reflects escalation~in fuel costs and is derived from the Producer Price Index, series WPU057303, for non seasonally adjusted no. 2 diesel fuel. These values were determined to be: P 1 9 8 1 = 89.2 F 1 9 8 1 = 105 P 2 0 1 0= 187 F 2 0 1 0= 206.8 Page 6 of 9 It should be noted that the value of the Producer Price Index for 1981 was taken from the annual average column and at the time of preparing these responses and the 2010 data was taken to be the preliminary February 2010 values.Therefore E 1 9 8 1=0.54P 1 9 8 1+ 0.46F 1 9 8 1 E 1 9 8 1=0.54(89.2)

In addition, many of the items indicated as chargeable in the reference document are normal university overhead duties not borne specifically for the project in question. Therefore, the final estimate is 50%
Therefore the value for the generic LLW disposal site using vendors for the reference BWR, B 1 9 8 6-2 0 0 8 = 11.198, is assumed as the value for B 1 9 8 1-2 0 1 0 Applying the above derived escalation factors to the equation, 0.65*L + 0.13*E + 0.22*B, the adjustment factor was determined to be: 0.65(2.592)+0.13(2.033)+0..22(11.198)

Licensee's Response:
The means of adjusting the cost estimate and associated funding level for decommissioning of the facility is by use of the inflation formula found in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(2). Specifically, an adjustment factor equal to 0.65*L + 0.13*E + 0.22*B is used
.where Land E are escalation factors for labor and energy, respectively, and taken from regional data from the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics and B is an escalation factor for waste burial taken from NUREG-1307.
To update the initial cost estimate in 1981 dollars to 2010 dollars the labor escalation factor was derived from the Employee Cost Indices, series ID ECU133021 and CIU20100000002301(B) for non seasonally adjusted, total compensation, of private industry in the Midwest.
L1981= 41.9 L20=   108.6 108.6 41.9 =2.592 It should be noted that the value of the Employee Cost Index for 1981 was taken from quarter 4 of 1982 data since no prior data was available and at the time of preparing these responses quarter 1 data for 2010 was not available and therefore quarter 4 data from 2009 was used.
The escalation factor for energy is taken from NUREG-1307, revision 13, section 3.2 for the reference BWR to be:
E = 0.54P + 0.46F Where P reflects escalation in industrial electric power and is derived from the Producer Price Index, series WPU0543, for non seasonally adjusted industrial electric power; and F reflects escalation~in fuel costs and is derived from the Producer Price Index, series WPU057303, for non seasonally adjusted no. 2 diesel fuel. These values were determined to be:
P 1981 = 89.2             F1981 = 105 P2010 = 187               F2010 = 206.8 Page 6 of 9
 
It should be noted that the value of the Producer Price Index for 1981 was taken from the annual average column and at the time of preparing these responses and the 2010 data was taken to be the preliminary February 2010 values.
Therefore E19 81 =0.54P 198 1+ 0.46F1 98 1 E198 1=0.54(89.2) + 0.46(105)
E1981 = 96.47 And E2 010=0.54P 2010 + 0.46F 2010 E2 010=0.54(187) + 0.46(206.8)
E2010 =   196.1 Finally 196.1 E19 81-20 10 = 9     =2-033 The escalation factor for burial costs is taken from NUREG-1307, revision 13, table 2.1.
The values developed for table 2.1 are normalized to 1986 and do not project beyond 2008. No additional data is available. Therefore the value for the generic LLW disposal site using vendors for the reference BWR, B 198 6-200 8 = 11.198, is assumed as the value for B 1 9 8 1 -2 0 1 0 Applying the above derived escalation factors to the equation, 0.65*L + 0.13*E + 0.22*B, the adjustment factor was determined to be:
0.65(2.592)+0.13(2.033)+0..22(11.198) = 4.413 Applying the 4.413 adjustment factor to the 1981 estimate of $452,220 the current 2010 cost estimate for decommissioning was determined to be $1,995,448.
This methodology will be used to adjusting the cost estimate and associated funding level every five years over the life of the facility pursuant to 10 CFR 50.75(d)(2)(iii).

The net assets reported as restricted will be used in accordance with the purposes for which they are restricted and are the first resources used for these purposes. Unrestricted net assets would be used only secondarily to support these restricted purposes.
Annually, the reports are audited by independent auditors.The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The University of Wisconsin System eliminates intra-fund assets and liabilities to prevent double counting in the Statements of Net Assets. Likewise, revenues and expenses relative to internal service activities are also eliminated in the Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets.

Health Insurance The State's Health Insurance Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan not held in trust, is an employer-sponsored program offering group medical coverage to eligible employees and retirees of the State. The State Department of Employee Trust Funds and the Group Insurance Board have program administration and oversight responsibilities under Wisconsin Statutes Sections 15.165(2) and 40.03(6).Under this plan, retired employees of the State contribute the same healthcare premium as active employees, creating an implicit rate subsidy for retirees.
Facilities and equipment rented through operating leases are not recorded as assets on the balance sheet.
This implicit rate subsidy, which is calculated to cover pre-age 65 retirees (since at age 65 retirees are required to enroll in Medicare when eligible), is treated as an other postemployment benefit (OPEB).As of the January 1, 2007 actuarial valuation, the State's annual required contributions were $158.7 million for 2008 and $148.5 million for 2007. The State's actual contributions were $48.8 million in 2008 and$44.3 million in 2007, which results in a net OPEB obligation for the State of $214.1 million as of December 31, 2008, and $104.2 million as of December 31, 2007. The portion of this obligation allocated to the University of Wisconsin System increased from $47.1 million in fiscal year 2008 to $96.6 million in fiscal year 2009. This obligation is included in the CAFR, but is not included in the University of Wisconsin System's financial statements dueto differences in reporting requirements.

..Statutes. State and local government public employees are entitled to an annual formula retirement benefit based on the employee's final average earnings, years of creditable service, and a formula factor. Final average earnings is the average of the participant's three highest years' earnings. Creditable service is the creditable current and prior service expressed in years or decimal equivalents of partial years for which a participant receives earnings and makes contributions as required. The formula factor is a standard percentage based on employment category.           If an employee's contributions, matching employer's contributions, and interest credited to the employee's account exceed the value of the formula benefit, the retirement benefit may instead be calculated as a money purchase benefit.

NOTE 9 -Capital Assets Land, buildings, improvements (e.g., parking lots, fences, street lighting, etc.), equipment, and library holdings are capitalized at cost at date of acquisition or fair market value at date of donation in the case of gifts-in-kind.
 
Generally, capital equipment is defined as any single asset with a minimum value of $5,000 and having a useful life of more than one year. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets: buildings over forty years, improvements over twenty years, and capital equipment over periods ranging from three to fifteen years for specified asset classes. The componentized methodology of depreciation is used for major research facilities generally using estimated useful lives ranging from ten to fifty years. Library'holdings are not depreciated because these resources are viewed as inexhaustible assets. Disposals of library holdings are removed at either a historically calculated average cost or at an amount that approximates original cost as nearly as is practical to determine.

Responses to License Renewal Request for Additional Information Licensee's Response:

The annual financial report for 2009 for the University of Wisconsin has been provided in attachment 1.

Licensee's Response:

The estimated operating costs for fiscal years FY 2011 through 2015 are summarized below:

2011 2012 2013 2014 2015

.Salary & Wages t $216,748 $216,748 $223,452 $225,687 $227,943 Benefits $64,383 $64,383 $66,374 $67,038 $67,709 Supplies & Expenses* $12,000 $12,360 $12,731 $13,113 $13,506 Total $293,132 $293,492 $302,557 $305,837 $309,158 In an effort to reduce a deficit of the biennial state budget, the State of Wisconsin has furloughed state employees, including the University of Wisconsin, for 8 days per year of the biennial budget period. This amounts to a 3% reduction in salaries and wages. This estimate assumes the furloughs will not be reinstated in the next biennial budget period. Furthermore, the historically averaged merit based increase to salaries and wages has been about 1% per year.

tThe projection for supplies and expenses are based on expected cost for 2011 and adjusted by 3% per year to account for inflation.

(b) Confirm th~at the Un~iversity's primary source(s) of fniotcveteopring, cost~s for~the above FY willbe fro6m the state-funded budget asdescribed in the application.~

Licensee's Response:

The following table outlines projected sources of funding to cover the operating costs for fiscal years FY 2011 through 2015:

2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 State Funds $197,022 $197,022 $202,021 $204,521 $207,058 Grants and Giftst $40,480 $40,480 - $40,480 $40,480 $40,480 Auxiliary Enterprise $55,630 $55,990 $60,056 $62,286 $64,554

$293,132 $293,492 $302,557 $305,837 $309,158

-Balancery ~ $0 $1,309> $271 $(610)~ $(1,306) tGrants and gifts include existing state and federal grants and financial gifts made to the University in support of the facility. These funds are encumbered and assumed to be disbursed in equal sharesannually. There are no projections of assumed future grant income.

Auxiliary enterprise income includes services provided by the facility to users for a fee.

These services include, but are not limited to, neutron activation analysis, isotope production, training, outreach and consultation. The projection for 2011 auxiliary enterprise income is based on the historical average over the last decade.. Future projections are adjusted by 3% per year to account for inflation.

Licensee's Response:

The cost analysis that follows was submitted to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75 on July 19, 1990 and is reproduced in its entirety. The basis of the 1990 estimate was and the 2010 estimate still is NUREG/CR-1756.

Cost Category Reference Estimate UWNR Estimate (1981$) (1981$)

Disposal of Radioactive Materials 16, 610 10,800 Neutron activated materials reduced by 35%

due to larger distance from core to shield (2.4 m diameter vs. 2.0 m) and UWNR wall not completely surrounding core. Also reduced because UWNR core is 1.2 m above pool bottom vs. 0.46 m.

Contaminated materials 60,600 30,300 Reduction by 50% due to smaller building size, with cooling system and auxiliary equipment compactly housed in one area. Half the assumed rubble volume in reference reactor is outside the reactor building. In addition, pool concrete is well protected against contamination at UWNR due to liner and epoxy coating. Finally, the contamination level at UWNR is extremely low - even the estimate above would require a major fuel rupture to produce enough contamination to require the expenditure indicated.

Page 3 of 9

Cost Category Reference Estimate UWNR Estimate (1981 $) (1981 $)

Radioactive Wastes The number from the reference document is 9,620 9,620 used unchanged.

Total Disposal Costs 86,290 50,720 Staff Labor 530,570 265,285 Our analysis of the work force required for our facility is 6.8 man-years vs. the 12.6 man-year estimate in the reference document. Even this is high, considering that the facility has been operated, upgraded, maintained, health physics services provided, etc. with a considerably smaller staff than indicated for decontamination. In addition, many of the items indicated as chargeable in the reference document are normal university overhead duties not borne specifically for the project in question. Therefore, the final estimate is 50%

of the value in the reference.

Energy 13,790 13,790 The value used in the reference document is used unchanged.

Special Tools and Equipment 21,150 21,150 The value used in the reference document is used unchanged.

Miscellaneous Supplies 6,210 6,210 The value used in the reference document is used unchanged.

Nuclear Insurance 4,620 4,620 The value used in the reference document is used unchanged.

License Fees 13,950 0,000 It is assumed that the university will remain exempted from the NRC licensing fees, so this item is zero for UWNR.

Cost Category Reference Estimate UWNR Estimate (1981$) (1981$)

Subtotal 676,580 361,775 Contingency (25%) 169,150 90,445 TOTAL 845,730 452,220 The cost of spent fuel shipment was assumed to be paid per current fuel contract with the U.S. Department of Energy. Cost for facility demolition and site restoration is not included, since it is expectedthat, once the reactor is decontaminated, the site will be used for other university activities.

The 1990 projection for decommissioning costs in 2000 assumed the decommissioning began in June 2000 when the operating license was scheduled to expire. The 1990 cost estimate assumed an increase of 5% per year. The 5% figure was based on the importance of salary in the estimate and recent history on pay rates for academic staff and civil service employees of the university. Therefore the price above, in 1981 dollars, was expected to escalate by a factor of 2.65 over the 20 year period of 1981-2000.

Therefore the decommissioning cost of the facility was estimated to be $1.2 million in 2000.

A more rigorous approach to address cost escalation using the inflation formula found in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(2) was used to determine the current decommissioning cost estimate, in 2010 dollars, to be $1,995,448. A detailed numerical example of the application of this inflation formula is presented in response to question 3(c) below.

Licensee's Response:

The method of decommissioning will be DECON; that is, the immediate removal of all radioactive material down to residual levels which will permit release of the property for unrestricted access.

Licensee's Response:

The means of adjusting the cost estimate and associated funding level for decommissioning of the facility is by use of the inflation formula found in 10 CFR 50.75(c)(2). Specifically, an adjustment factor equal to 0.65*L + 0.13*E + 0.22*B is used

.where Land E are escalation factors for labor and energy, respectively, and taken from regional data from the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics and B is an escalation factor for waste burial taken from NUREG-1307.

To update the initial cost estimate in 1981 dollars to 2010 dollars the labor escalation factor was derived from the Employee Cost Indices, series ID ECU133021 and CIU20100000002301(B) for non seasonally adjusted, total compensation, of private industry in the Midwest.

L1981= 41.9 L20= 108.6 108.6 41.9 =2.592 It should be noted that the value of the Employee Cost Index for 1981 was taken from quarter 4 of 1982 data since no prior data was available and at the time of preparing these responses quarter 1 data for 2010 was not available and therefore quarter 4 data from 2009 was used.

The escalation factor for energy is taken from NUREG-1307, revision 13, section 3.2 for the reference BWR to be:

E = 0.54P + 0.46F Where P reflects escalation in industrial electric power and is derived from the Producer Price Index, series WPU0543, for non seasonally adjusted industrial electric power; and F reflects escalation~in fuel costs and is derived from the Producer Price Index, series WPU057303, for non seasonally adjusted no. 2 diesel fuel. These values were determined to be:

P 1981 = 89.2 F1981 = 105 P2010 = 187 F2010 = 206.8 Page 6 of 9

It should be noted that the value of the Producer Price Index for 1981 was taken from the annual average column and at the time of preparing these responses and the 2010 data was taken to be the preliminary February 2010 values.

Therefore E19 81 =0.54P 198 1+ 0.46F1 98 1 E198 1=0.54(89.2) + 0.46(105)

E1981 = 96.47 And E2 010=0.54P 2010 + 0.46F 2010 E2 010=0.54(187) + 0.46(206.8)

E2010 = 196.1 Finally 196.1 E19 81-20 10 = 9 =2-033 The escalation factor for burial costs is taken from NUREG-1307, revision 13, table 2.1.

The values developed for table 2.1 are normalized to 1986 and do not project beyond 2008. No additional data is available. Therefore the value for the generic LLW disposal site using vendors for the reference BWR, B 198 6-200 8 = 11.198, is assumed as the value for B 1 9 8 1 -2 0 1 0 Applying the above derived escalation factors to the equation, 0.65*L + 0.13*E + 0.22*B, the adjustment factor was determined to be:

0.65(2.592)+0.13(2.033)+0..22(11.198) = 4.413 Applying the 4.413 adjustment factor to the 1981 estimate of $452,220 the current 2010 cost estimate for decommissioning was determined to be $1,995,448.

This methodology will be used to adjusting the cost estimate and associated funding level every five years over the life of the facility pursuant to 10 CFR 50.75(d)(2)(iii).

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM Notes to tile Financial Statements Years Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 NOTE I - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization and Basis of Presentation: The University of Wisconsin System consists of 13 universities, 13 two-year colleges, University of Wisconsin-Extension, and System Administration. The financial statements do not include the accounts of the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics Authority (UWHCA), which became a legally separate public authority on June 29, 1996; the La Crosse Medical Health Science Consortium, Inc., which is a Wisconsin non-stock corporation tax exempt under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 501(c)(3); or the University of Wisconsin Foundation. In addition, the financial statements do not include the accounts of various legally independent and fully self-governing support organizations, such as booster clubs and alumni groups; funds contributed to the University of Wisconsin System by these organizations are reported at the time they are received. Note 11 describes the effect on the financial statements of other organizations, including the various affiliation and operating agreements with the UWHCA and La Crosse Medical Health Science Consortium, Inc. Post-retirement benefit plans for the University of Wisconsin System employees are administered by the State of Wisconsin's Department of Employee Trust Funds. The assets and liabilities of these programs are reported by the State of Wisconsin and not by the University of Wisconsin System.

The University of Wisconsin System is a major enterprise fund of the State of Wisconsin. The financial statements are discretely presented in the proprietary fund financial statements of the State of Wisconsin's, Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). The University of Wisconsin System's financial information presented in the CAFR has been adjusted to reflect reclassifications which are done to conform with reporting requirements related to the CAFR.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). In addition, the University of Wisconsin System applies allapplicable Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statements and Interpretations, Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinions and Accounting Research Bulletins of the Committee on Accounting Procedures issued on or before November 30, 1989, unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements. The University of Wisconsin System has elected not to apply FASB pronouncements issued after November 30, 1989.

The.University of Wisconsin System's annual report consists of three basic financial statements prepared in accordance with GASB principles: the Statements of Net Assets; the Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets; and the Statements of Cash Flows.

The Statements of Net Assets; the Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets; and the Statements of Cash Flows have been prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. The University of Wisconsin System reports as a Business Type Activity, as defined by GASB Statement 35, Basic FinancialStatements - Management Discussion andAnalysis -for Public Colleges and Universities. Business Type Activities are those that are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or services.

The Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets classify the University of Wisconsin System's fiscal year activity as operating and nonoperating. Operating revenue results from exchange transactions, such as payment received for providing goods and services, including tuition and fees, certain grants and contracts, sales and services of educational activities, and auxiliary enterprise revenue. Certain significant revenue streams relied upon for operations are reported as nonoperating revenues, as defined by GASB Statement 35, including state appropriations, gifts, and investment income. The majority of the University of Wisconsin System's expenses are exchange transactions which GASB defines as operating expenses for financial statement presentation. Nonoperating expenses include capital financing costs and costs related to investment activity.

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM Notes to the Financial Statements Years Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 NOTE I - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Student tuition and fees are presented net of scholarships and fellowships applied to student accounts. Stipends and other payments made directly to students are presented as scholarship and fellowship expenses.

Restricted funds received as gifts and grants and contracts are used according to donor restrictions or the specific purpose of the grantor. In addition, restrictions are statutorily established that limit the use of certain resources for specific purposes. These restrictions apply not only to state support but to many of the University 'ofWisconsin System's program revenue sources, including auxiliary operations. The net assets reported as restricted will be used in accordance with the purposes for which they are restricted and are the first resources used for these purposes. Unrestricted net assets would be used only secondarily to support these restricted purposes.

The University of Wisconsin System eliminates intra-fund assets and liabilities to prevent double counting in the Statements of Net Assets. Likewise, revenues and expenses relative to internal service activities are also eliminated in the Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets.

Unearned revenues consist of payments received but not yet earned as of June 301h, primarily summer session tuition payments, tuition and room deposits for. the next fall term, advance ticket sales for athletic events, and amounts received from grant and contract sponsors which have not yet been earned under the terms of the agreement.

Prepaid items represent payments made prior to June 3 0 th for goods and services received after the close of the fiscal year, primarily health and life insurance coverage.

Deferred charges represent costs associated with revenues that have not yet been earned as of June 3 0 th, primarily summer session costs incurred prior to the close of the fiscal year. The revenues and expenses of the 2009 summer session are reportable within the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2008 and ending June 30, 2009, based on the prorated portion of the number of summer session days that occurred in fiscal year 2009.

The revenues and expenses of the 2008 summer session are reportable within the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2007 and ending June 30, 2008, based on the prorated portion of the number of summer session days that occurred in fiscal year 2008.

Accrual of interest on bonds payable and salaries and fringe benefits paid after the close of the fiscal year, for hours worked by the University of Wisconsin System employees prior to June 3 0 th, account for the major portion of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Inventories consist of consumable supplies used in operations or items held for resale. Supplies held by central stores are valued at average cost, fuels are reported at market value, and other inventories held by individual institutional cost centers are valued using a variety of cost flow assumptions that, for each type of inventory, are consistently applied from year to year. In addition to central stores and fuels, the major types of inventories include laboratory supplies, physical plant supplies, food service and student housing supplies, and items held for resale by campus microcomputer outlets. Accounting polices related to capital assets are described in Note 9:

The Statements of Cash Flows present the change in the cash and cash equivalents balance for the fiscal year. Cash and cash equivalents include bank accounts and investments with original maturity dates of ninety days or less at the time of purchase. These investments consist primarily of commercial paper, money market funds, and U.S. Treasury bills.. Investments in marketable securities are carried at fair value as established by the major securities markets. Investments in limited partnerships are carried at fair value 33

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM Notes to the Financial Statements Years Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 NOTE 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) based on quarterly reports from the limited partnerships' management. Annually, the reports are audited by independent auditors.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain items in the June 30, 2008 financial statements have been reclassified.or restated to correspond to the June 30, 2009 presentation. For example, Student Direct Lending Receipts and Disbursements as presented in the year ended June 30, 2008 Statement of Cash Flows were reduced by $112,684,674 as a result of reclassifying the amounts to reflect Federal Family Education Loans rather than Direct Loans.

NOTE 2 - Cash and Investments Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of shares in the State Investment Fund (SIF), a short term pool of state and local funds managed by the State of Wisconsin Investment Board (SWIB) with oversight by a Board of Trustees as authorized in s. 25.14 and 25.17, Wisconsin Statutes. SWIB is not registered with the SEC as an investment company. The objectives of this fund are to provide liquidity, safety of principal, and a reasonable rate of return. Investments consist primarily of obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies and high quality commercial bank and corporate debt obligations.

Of the $891.6 and $699.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively,

$629.0 and $512.3 million, respectively, represents an amount held within the SIF; $235.2 and $141.8 million, respectively, was maintained by individual University of Wisconsin System institutions in local bank accounts to meet operating needs; and $27.4 million and $45.2 million, respectively, was held at Mellon Bank of Boston to meet the cash needs associated with the investing activities of the Long Term and Intermediate Term Funds, which is also categorized as investments in accordance with governmental standards. Except for balances associated with trust funds, auxiliary operations, and federally funded financial aid programs which receive interest distributions on a monthly basis, no investment earnings from these assets accrue to the University of Wisconsin System.

Custodial Credit Risk: Custodial credit risk related to deposits is the risk that, in the event of a failure of a depository financial institution, the University of Wisconsin System will not be able to recover deposits that are in possession of an outside party. The University of Wisconsin System does not have a formal deposit policy for custodial credit risk.

The University of Wisconsin System had balances in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits in the amount of $231.4 and $139.9 million at June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These amounts, deposited in approved financial institutions, are uninsured and uncollateralized. A state appropriation for losses on public deposits (s. 34.08, Wisconsin Statutes) insures up to $400,000 over the amount of federal insurance.

Foreign Currency Risk: Foreign currency risk is the risk that changes in exchange rates will adversely affect the fair value of a deposit. Deposits in foreign currency at June 30, 2009 and 2008 are immaterial.

The University of Wisconsin System does not have a formal deposit policy for foreign currency risk.

34

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM Notes to the Financial Statements Years Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 NOTE 2 - Cash and Investments (continued)

Investments The University of Wisconsin System invests its Trust Funds, principally gifts and bequests, in two of its own investment pools: the Long Term and the Intermediate Term Funds. Investment policies and guidelines for these funds are governed and authorized by the Board of Regents. The current approved asset allocation policy for the Long Term Fund sets a general target of 24.5% marketable equities, 16.5% fixed income, 34% alternatives, and 25% tactical strategies. The approved asset allocation for the Intermediate Term Fund is 15% marketable equities, 65% fixed income, 10% alternatives, and 10% cash.

These target allocations were last affirmed/approved in December 2008.

Benefiting University of Wisconsin System entities receive quarterly distributions from the Long Term Fund, principally endowed assets, based on an annual spending rate applied to a twelve-quarter moving average market value of the Fund. The annual spending rate is currently 4.0%. Distributions from the Intermediate Term Fund, principally quasi-endowments and unspent income distributions, consist of interest earnings distributed quarterly. Spending rate and interest distributions from both of these Funds are transferred to the SIF, pending near-term expenditures. During the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2009, the amount available to spend from the Long Term Fund was $12,276,180, relative to $11,756,158 available during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.

At June 30, 2009 and 2008, the University of Wisconsin System's investments include credit risk Category I investments as defined by GASB (investments that are insured or registered and held by the University of Wisconsin System or its agents in the name of the University of Wisconsin System) and other investments not categorized by risk category as follows:

compared to 7.6% in fiscal year 2008. External investment counsel was utilized for funds representing 84.6%, compared to 83.8% in fiscal year 2008, of the market value of the Long Term and .Intermediate Term Funds. In addition to the limited partnerships market value listed above, the University of Wisconsin System had unfunded limited partnership commitments of $30.6 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009, relative to $20.6 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.

Credit Risk: Credit Risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. For the Long Term Fund, fund-level asset allocation constraints limit exposure to below investment grade debt securities to no more than 10%; for the Intermediate Term Fund, exposure is limited to 6%. In addition, actively-managed, investment grade fixed income separate accounts must maintain an average portfolio quality of AA by Standard & Poor's and/or Aa by Moody's, and hold only securities rated BBB- by Standard & Poor's and/or'Baa3 by Moody's or higher. Credit risk guidelines for all mutual or commingled funds used are carefully reviewed and monitored.

The University of Wisconsin System's investments are registered in the name of the University of Wisconsin System and the University of Wisconsin System does not participate in any securities lending programs through its custodian bank.

Investment securities underlying the University of Wisconsin System's investment in shares of external investment pools or funds are in custody at those funds. The shares owned in these external investment pools are registered in the name of the University of Wisconsin System.

Concentrationof Credit Risk: Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of an organization's investment in a single issuer. Actively-managed, fixed income separate accounts are limited to holding no more than 7% in any one issuer (U.S. Government/Agencies are exempted). Credit confcentration guidelines for all mutual or commingled funds used are carefully reviewed and monitored.

During fiscal year 2009 and 2008, the largest concentration by a non-U.S. Government/Agency was Wachovia Bank with 0.6% and 0.9%, respectively, of total Trust Funds assets.

37

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM Notes to the Financial Statements Years Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 NOTE 2 - Cash and Investments (continued)

Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Actively-managed, fixed income separate accounts are expected to maintain their overall duration to within plus or minus one year of the established benchmark's duration. Duration-related guidelines for mutual or commingled funds used are carefully reviewed and monitored. The University of Wisconsin System uses the option adjusted modified duration method to analyze interest rate risk. The University of Wisconsin System had interest rate risk statistics for fixed income separate accounts as detailed below:

  • 2009 2008 Fixed Income Sector:

As of June 30, 2009, the Long Term and Intermediate Term Funds held equity securities denominated in foreign currencies within pooled investment vehicles only, with market values totaling $75,967,071 and $4,203,800, respectively, compared to prior fiscal year amounts of

$94,307,013 and $1,153,656, respectively. Some of the trades for such foreign positions will not settle in foreign currencies until after the fiscal year end. For the Long Term and Intermediate Term Funds, it is generally expected and desired that foreign currency exposure is not hedged, as this enhances the diversification benefits from non-U.S. investments. Foreign currency management practices and policies for mutual or commingled funds used are carefully reyiewed and monitored.

Principal repayment and interest rates of university and federal loans vary. Federal loan programs are funded primarily with federal contributions to the University of Wisconsin System under the Perkins loan program and a variety of health professions loan programs.

The University of Wisconsin System distributed $94.3 million in student loans through the United States Department of Education federal direct lending program during fiscal year 2009 and $73.0 million in 2008.

These distributions and the related funding sources are not reflected as expenses and revenues in the financial statements. However, cash inflows and outflows are shown in the Statements of Cash Flows.

Facilities and equipment rented through operating leases are not recorded as assets on the balance sheet.

Operating lease expenditures amounted to $24,971,724 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Minimum commitments for future operating lease payments are as follows:

Compensated absences for the University of Wisconsin System employees at June 30, 2009 totaled

$119,119,233 compared with $112,366,585 for the previous year. The compensated absences balance consists of a $57,595,924 current liability and $61,523,309 noncurrent liability compared to a $55,356,706 current liability and $57,009,879 noncurrent liability for the previous year. The University of Wisconsin System leave policies restrict the accumulation of unused vacation and thus limit the actual payments made to employees upon termination or retirement.

NOTE 7 - Retirement Benefits Retirement benefits are provided for substantially all employees through the Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS), a cost-sharing, multiple-employer, defined benefit plan governed by Chapter 40 of the Wisconsin

..Statutes. State and local government public employees are entitled to an annual formula retirement benefit based on the employee's final average earnings, years of creditable service, and a formula factor. Final average earnings is the average of the participant's three highest years' earnings. Creditable service is the creditable current and prior service expressed in years or decimal equivalents of partial years for which a participant receives earnings and makes contributions as required. The formula factor is a standard percentage based on employment category. If an employee's contributions, matching employer's contributions, and interest credited to the employee's account exceed the value of the formula benefit, the retirement benefit may instead be calculated as a money purchase benefit. WRS is part of the State of Wisconsin's financial reporting entity. Copies of the separately issued financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information may be obtained by writing to: Department of Employee Trust Funds, P.O. Box 7931, Madison, WI 53707-793 1.

Generally, the State's policy is to fund retirement contributions on a level-percentage-of-payroll basis to meet normal costs of the retirement system. The retirement plan requires employee contributions equal to specified percentages of qualified earnings based on the employee's classification, as well as employer contributions at a rate determined annually. The University of Wisconsin System made contributions of

$192,305,871 for fiscal year 2009, compared to $182,100,932 for the previous fiscal year. In December 2003, the State issued bonds and subsequently fully liquidated its prior service liability balance as of 42

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN SYSTEM Notes to the Financial Statements Years Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 NOTE 7- Retirement Benefits (continued)

January 2003.. State agencies are required to make future contributions to fund the bond payments. Bond payments totaling $45,426,987 during fiscal year 2009, compared to bond payments totaling $42,068,796 during fiscal year 2008, are included in transfer to state agencies on the financial statements.

In addition to the Wisconsin Retirement System, certain employees associated with federally funded activities are partially covered by the Federal Retirement Program. The University of Wisconsin System's contributions to this program amounted to $276,461 during the current year, compared with $361,304 for the previous year.

NOTE 8 - Posteemploynment Benefits Other Than Pensions In accordance with the provisions of GASB Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions, state and local governmental employers are required to display in financial reports other postemployment benefit expense/expenditures and related liabilities (assets), note disclosures, and if applicable, required supplementary information. The employees of the University of Wisconsin System are employees of the State. The financial statements of the University of Wisconsin System do not include other postemployment benefit expense/expenditures or the related liabilities (assets) other than those actually paid during fiscal year 2009, which are included in salary and fringe benefits on the financial statements.

Health Insurance The State's Health Insurance Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan not held in trust, is an employer-sponsored program offering group medical coverage to eligible employees and retirees of the State. The State Department of Employee Trust Funds and the Group Insurance Board have program administration and oversight responsibilities under Wisconsin Statutes Sections 15.165(2) and 40.03(6).

Under this plan, retired employees of the State contribute the same healthcare premium as active employees, creating an implicit rate subsidy for retirees. This implicit rate subsidy, which is calculated to cover pre-age 65 retirees (since at age 65 retirees are required to enroll in Medicare when eligible), is treated as an other postemployment benefit (OPEB).

As of the January 1, 2007 actuarial valuation, the State's annual required contributions were $158.7 million for 2008 and $148.5 million for 2007. The State's actual contributions were $48.8 million in 2008 and

$44.3 million in 2007, which results in a net OPEB obligation for the State of $214.1 million as of December 31, 2008, and $104.2 million as of December 31, 2007. The portion of this obligation allocated to the University of Wisconsin System increased from $47.1 million in fiscal year 2008 to $96.6 million in fiscal year 2009. This obligation is included in the CAFR, but is not included in the University of Wisconsin System's financial statements dueto differences in reporting requirements.

The CAFR includes financial statements, additional note disclosures, and required supplementary information for this plan. That report is publicly available at www.doa.state.wi.us or may be obtained by writing to: The Department of Administration, 101 East Wilson Street, Madison, Wisconsin 53702.

Life Insurance and Duty Disability The Life Insurance program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan held in trust, provides post-employment coverage to all eligible employees. The plan is administered under Wisconsin Statutes Section 40.70. Beginning at age 65, retirees and terminating members continue to receive basic coverage for life at the level of insurance in force before retirement. Retirees and terminating members under age 65 must continue to pay the employee premium to maintain coverage. The amount contributed by the University of Wisconsin System to this plan could not be determined.

The Duty Disability program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan held in trust, offers special disability insurance for employees in protective occupations. This plan is administered under Wisconsin Statutes Section 40.65. Qualified employees receive benefits under this program approximating 80% of salary, less certain offsets, based upon the type and level of disability suffered and the implications of the disability on their ability to work. There are no employee contributions associated with this plan.

The University of Wisconsin System contributed $728,727 to this program during fiscal year 2009 compared to $660,330 during fiscal year 2008.

The Department of Employee Trust Funds issues publicly available financial reports that include financial statements, additional note disclosures, and required supplementary information for these plans. The reports are available at www.etfwi.gov or may be obtained upon request from: The Department of Employee Trust Funds, 801 West Badger Road, P.O. Box 7931, Madison, Wisconsin 53707-7931.

NOTE 9 - Capital Assets Land, buildings, improvements (e.g., parking lots, fences, street lighting, etc.), equipment, and library holdings are capitalized at cost at date of acquisition or fair market value at date of donation in the case of gifts-in-kind. Generally, capital equipment is defined as any single asset with a minimum value of $5,000 and having a useful life of more than one year. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets: buildings over forty years, improvements over twenty years, and capital equipment over periods ranging from three to fifteen years for specified asset classes. The componentized methodology of depreciation is used for major research facilities generally using estimated useful lives ranging from ten to fifty years. Library'holdings are not depreciated because these resources are viewed as inexhaustible assets. Disposals of library holdings are removed at either a historically calculated average cost or at an amount that approximates original cost as nearly as is practical to determine. The University of Wisconsin System does not capitalize the $245.3 million in works of art or historical treasures that are held for exhibition, education, research, and public service. These collections, are neither disposed of for financial gain nor encumbered in any way. Proceeds from the sale, exchange, or other disposal of any item belonging to a collection of works of art or historical treasures must be applied to the acquisition of additional items for the same collection.

GASB Statement No. 42, Accounting and FinancialReporting for Impairment of Capital Assets andfor Insurance Recoveries, establishes accounting and financial reporting standards for a capital asset that has experienced a significant, unexpected decline in its service utility. Two assets met the temporarily impaired definition of this standard. The University of Wisconsin - Whitewater's Central Heating Plant, net book value of $5.3 million was idle as of June 30, 2008; however it was fully functional in Fall, 2008. The University of Wisconsin - Oshkosh's River Commons, net book value of $.5 million, was idle as of June 30, 2008 and 2009. A decision was made on October 7, 2009 that the building will be replaced with expected insurance proceeds of $3.1 million within the next two years. Insurance recoveries for the two buildings amounting to $1.2 and $1.0 million, respectively, are included in the other non-operating revenues (expenses), net, account on the financial statements.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, the University of Wisconsin System provided services and rent to The Consortium totaling $.7 million. The cost of the services provided and the associated revenue are included in the Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets. *The amounts spent for services received are included as salaries and fringe benefits and supplies and services expenses on this statement.

D - Other Agreements University of Wisconsin Medical Foundation The University of Wisconsin (UW) Medical Foundation is the not-for-profit clinical practice organization for the. faculty physicians of the UW School of Medicine and Public Health within UW-Madison. The UW Medical Foundation provides clinical sites, technical and professional staff and administrative services for the UW faculty physicians group.

During fiscal year 2007-08, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) implemented a Certified Public Expenditure (CPE) program for the services the UW faculty physicians group provides to Medical Assistance (MA) recipients. Because the UW faculty physicians group qualifies as a public provider, it is eligible to receive cost-based reimbursement under federal MA rules.

Under the CPE program, DHS is able to claim additional federal MA funds based upon the difference between the established MA reimbursement rate for the services provided by the UW faculty physicians group and the actual cost of providing those services. To enable the draw of these federal funds by DHS, UW-Madison remitted a total of $35.9 million to DHS during fiscal years 2009 and 2008, representing the state's share of this difference. DHS then claimed the federal share of the difference from the federal government and subsequently provided $79.6 million, representing both the state and federal share of the difference, to the UW Medical Foundation. During fiscal year 2009, the UW Medical Foundation remitted

$65.9 million to UW-Madison as reimbursement for the $35.9 million that UW-Madison remitted to DHS as well as reimbursement for annual $15 million transfers made by UW-Madison to the State's MA Trust Fund during fiscal years 2009 and 2008. The $65.9 million that UW-Madison received from the UW Medical Foundation is included in the other non-operating revenues (expenses), net, account on the financial statements. The $15 million transfers to the MA Trust Fund are reported as a transfer to state agencies on the financial statements.

University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics Authority The University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics Authority (UWHCA) provides inpatient and outpatient hospital services to Medical Assistance (MA) recipients. Under federal MA rules, services provided by UWHCA are eligible for supplemental payments for the difference between the established MA reimbursement rate for the services provided and the actual cost of providing those services. Supplemental payments of $49 million were paid to UWHCA by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 for services provided during 1990 through 2006. UWHCA provided the funds to UW-Madison, which reported the $49 million in the other non-operating revenues (expenses) account, net, on the financial statements.

Pursuant to 2009 Act 28, UW-Madison transferred $49 million to the State's General Fund. This transfer is reported as a transfer to state agencies on the financial statements.
