Construction at River Bend Station accounted for $1,140,432,671 of the total amount. Total E ' ~ ~ ' i investment in new utility plant assets dunne 1984 was in excess of $294 million. l The cost of borrowed money remained a signi6 cant I component of operatine expenses durme 1984. Interest expense during this renod amounted to arrroximately 35 percent of total operating costs. Cajun was able, during Gerald W. pellar D.

Louisiana National Bank, headquartered in Baton 1981 Revenue Dollars Rouge, was seleuted as Trustee for certain of these pollution securities as a means of strengthening Cajun's yerel' commitment to Louisiana and its economy. A vitally important Revenue Deferral Program was Ta enacted in May that allowed Cajun to reduce electric rates to its customers in 1984 and 1985, in an amount of pepreciation more than $56 million.

The K ~ Power Supply Department met this demanding challenge i with the technological assistance of the Supervisory ~~% Control and Data Acquisition System (SCADA). This ,i computer communication system, with machine (\\ interfacing equipment and Remote Terminal Units (RTUs), is linked to 150 delivery points throughout the Cajun system and to both of Cajun's generating facilities. ~ j This system collects energy requirement data from the member cooperatives which is then instantaneousiv 3 5;5 transmitted to Cajun's generating plants. Generatma levels are then adjusted to accommodate system demand and off-system requirements. 1 1 The SCADA system allowed Cajun disratchers to maintain an outstandine record of system reliability and j integrity during 1984. j Through careful monitoring of the Southwest Power Jeff A.

Production - m f y A spirit of shared purpose, dedication and enthusiasm was evident throughout the Production Division during ~ 1984.

The fuel cost at reduced at both generating plants in 1984 from the Bie Cajun 11 dropped from 28. 36 mills per htWii in previous year. In over 820,000 hours worked at both 1983 to 25.86 mills per htWii in 1984, which represents facilities, only 24 accidents were recorded, representing a 9.6 percent decrease.

During 1984, Policies and Procedures put into operation a Project Trackitle System that monitored the costs of 157 capital projects, 76 operating projects and ISS preliminarv investigations. An on-line computeri:ed spare parts accounting, reporting and expediting system (SPARES), became fully operational early in the year. Niinute-by minute, ] SPARES tracks the availability and quantity of each item in stock at the power plants. This Cajun-designed Russell D.
