in 1995. I am informed that the intervenors in the Perkins proceedings (STN 50-488, 50-489 & 50-490) " moved to dismiss the Perkins proceedings based on recent decisions by Duke to postpone indefinitely the construction of Perkins Units 1, 2 and 3." This interpretation by the intervenors is incorrect .

Our interest in building Perkins has not changed. My testimony described the firm commitments already scheduled through 1989. Our current load forecast clearly identifies the need for additional generating capacity after 1989 and the NCUC Public Staff confirms this need. Duke continues to believe that nuclear power generatior. is superior to currently available alternatives and that the Perkins units remrin an important and viable option for the post-1989 period. Duke has already made a defini's financial commitment to Perkins considering sita acquisition, site hearings, licensing, and engineering efforts to date. Duke has already perfermed much work and expects to perform the necessary work to meet the planned commercial date for Perkins 1. Definite economic advantages accrue by building Perkins since Perkins is part of a six unit standardized approach.
