This estimate increased by $69.5 million (2014$, 100% share) from previous DCE, which SCE submitted to the CPUC on December 21, 2012. The DCE increased for two primary reasons. First, the updated DCE includes unavoidable undistributed (time-dependent) expenses that were underestimated or omitted in the prior estimate. | ||
Second, the updated DCE includes the cost for full removal of the San Onofre Unit 1 offshore intake and discharge conduits because, although SCE abandoned the conduits in place in accordance with the 2005 amendment to its easement with the California State Lands Commission, SCE retains the liability for any required future removal of the conduits. | |||

This estimate increased by $69.5 million (2014$, 100% share) from previous DCE, which SCE submitted to the CPUC on December 21, 2012. The DCE increased for two primary reasons. First, the updated DCE includes unavoidable undistributed (time-dependent) expenses that were underestimated or omitted in the prior estimate. | ||
Second, the updated DCE includes the cost for full removal of the San Onofre Unit 1 offshore intake and discharge conduits because, although SCE abandoned the conduits in place in accordance with the 2005 amendment to its easement with the California State Lands Commission, SCE retains the liability for any required future removal of the conduits. | |||

This minimum amount is no longer relevant, however, because much of the radiological decommissioning of San Onofre Unit 1 has already been completed.
4 (2) The site-specific decommissioning cost estimate (DCE) for San Onofre Unit 1 that was submitted to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on March 1, 2016, includes the radiological costs associated with terminating the site license, non-radiological costs, and fuel storage costs. This estimate increased by $69.5 million (2014$, 100% share) from previous DCE, which SCE submitted to the CPUC on December 21, 2012. The DCE increased for two primary reasons. First, the updated DCE includes unavoidable undistributed (time-dependent) expenses that were underestimated or omitted in the prior estimate.
Second, the updated DCE includes the cost for full removal of the San Onofre Unit 1 offshore intake and discharge conduits because, although SCE abandoned the conduits in place in accordance with the 2005 amendment to its easement with the California State Lands Commission, SCE retains the liability for any required future removal of the conduits.
(3) The site-specific decommissioning cost estimate for San Onofre Units 2 -and 3 that was submitted to the NRC on September 23, 2014 and to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on December 10, 2014, includes the radiological costs associated with terminating the site license, non-radiological costs, and fuel storage costs. (4) During the period between June 7, 2013 and December 31, 2015, SCE incurred costs of $374.9 million for San Onofre Unit 2 and $368.5 million for San Onofre Unit 3 ( 100% share, Nominal$).
Some of the San Onofre decommissioning co-participants have not yet withd,rawn funds for all or part of these costs from their Decommissioning Trusts. Therefore, the Net Balances are the differences between the December 31, 2015 Decommissioning Trust Balances and the 2013-2015 incurred costs. (5) SCE is submitting information with respect to its current co-owners, SDG&E and Riverside, and its former co-owner, Anaheim, on their behalf, and they are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of their respective information.

__ .. ..J FIRST AMENDMENT TO DECOMMISSIONING TRUST FUND AGREEMENT THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO DECOMMISSIONING TRUST FUND AGREEMENT
("First Amendment"), dated for purposes of identification only this \7""'<1ay of November, 2015, is made and entered into by and between the CITY OF ANAHEIM ("Anaheim"), a charter city and municipal corporation of the State of California, also referred to herein as "Grantor," and U.S. Bank National Association
("USBNA"), also referred to herein as "Trustee." RECITALS WHEREAS, Anaheim, as grantor, and The Bank of California, as trustee, previously entered into the Decommissioning Trust Fund Agreement dated November 6, 1990 ("Agreement"), incorporated herein by this reference, in order to comply with regulations in Title 10, Chapter I of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50 that require a licensee to provide assurance that funds will be available when needed for required decommissioning activities; and WHEREAS, the term "Trustee," as defined in Section l .B of the Agreement, means "the Trustee who enters into this Agreement and any successor Trustee";
and WHEREAS, in 1996, The Bank of California and Union Bank, N.A. consolidated and continued operations following that consolidation, through several different financing arrangements, as "Union Bank"; and WHEREAS, on February 1, 2012, USBNA succeeded Union Bank, N.A. as trustee on certain accounts pursuant to a Purchase and Assumption Agreement between USBNA and Union Bank dated January 27, 2012, and pursuant to Section 4879.14 of the California Financial Code. 1 As such, USBNA (as Union Bank's successor) is a party to the Agreement, as such Agreement may be amended from time to time; and WHEREAS, the Agreement reflects Federal regulations in effect at the time it was signed in 1990, including regulations that required the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
("NRC") to approve a decommissioning plan prior to the initial trust fund withdrawal request under the Agreement.
As part of a 1996 rulemaking proceeding, the NRC amended its regulations to eliminate this plan approval requirement for certain trust fund withdrawals for decommissioning activities; and WHEREAS, the NRC modified its regulations again as part of a 2002 rulemaking to require that licensees provide a 30-working-day written notice to the NRC of trust fund withdrawals, except for withdrawals made under 10 C.F.R. § 50.82(a)(8) (including expenses for legitimate decommissioning activities) and withdrawals made for payments of ordinary administrative costs and other incidental expenses of the trust fund (including legal, accounting, actuarial, and trustee expenses) in connection with the operation of the trust fund; and WHEREAS, the NRC issued Exemptions for San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station ("SONGS"), Units 2 and 3, on September 5, 2014 (NRC Document ID No. NRC 2014 0170, 79 Fed. Reg. 55,019 (Sept. 15, 2014)), allowing withdrawals from the SONGS decommissioning trust funds for irradiated fuel management and site restoration activities, without prior notification to the NRC; and WHEREAS, these regulatory changes made by the NRC, together with the Exemptions issued by the NRC specifically for SONGS Units 2 and 3, create a situation in which, after decommissioning has begun, trust fund withdrawals for expenses for legitimate 2
decommissioning activities, irradiated fuel management, and site restoration activities will not require further prior notice to the NRC; and . WHEREAS, with this First Amendment the Grantor and the Trustee wish to conform the Agreement to these NRC changes and resulting changed requirements for decommissioning trust agreements.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Grantor and the Trustee agree as follows: 1. That "SCHEDULE C -SPECIMEN CERTIFICATE OF EVENTS," referenced in Section 5 .A. and attached to the Agreement, is hereby amended in its entirety and replaced with "SCHEDULE C -FIRST AMENDED SPECIMEN CERTIFICATE OF EVENTS," as shown on Attachment 1 hereto. 2.

- 7) The amounts of decommissioning funds available as of December 31, 2015 for the costs to manage San Onofre Units 2 and 3 irradiated fuel, are shown in the table below:<4> SONGS 1 License Termination Costs Site Restoration Costs Spent Fuel Management Costs TOTAL SONGS 2 License Termination Costs Site Restoration Costs Spent Fuel Management Costs TOTAL SONGS 3 License Termination Costs Site Restoration Costs Spent Fuel Management Costs TOTAL Notes: Estimated "To Go" Decommissioning Cost $ 118.8 million $ 92.4 million $ 30.9 million $ 242.1 million Estimated "To Go" Decommissioning Cost $ 891.8 million $ 351.4 million $ 498. 7 million $1,741.9 million Estimated "To Go" Decommissioning Cost $ 936.5 million $ 529.0 million $ 536.9 million $ 2,002.4 million Cost Ratios 49.1% 38.2% 12.7% 100.0% Cost Ratios 51.2% 20.2% 28.6% 100.0% Cost Ratios 46.8% 26.4% 26.8% 100.0% 12/31/2015 Net Trust Balance $ 198.2 million $ 154.1 million $ 51.5 million $ 403.8 million 12/31/2015 Net Trust Balance $ 844.6 million $ 332.8 million 472.3 million $ 1,649.7 million 12/31/2015 Net Trust Balance $ 876.4 million $ 495.1 million 502.5 million $ 1,874.0 million (1) The minimum amount required for the radiological decommissioning costs of San Onofre Unit 1 is provided per the 10 CFR 50. 75 formula. This minimum amount is no longer relevant, however, because much of the radiological decommissioning of San Onofre Unit 1 has already been completed.
4 (2) The site-specific decommissioning cost estimate (DCE) for San Onofre Unit 1 that was submitted to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on March 1, 2016, includes the radiological costs associated with terminating the site license, non-radiological costs, and fuel storage costs. This estimate increased by $69.5 million (2014$, 100% share) from previous DCE, which SCE submitted to the CPUC on December 21, 2012. The DCE increased for two primary reasons. First, the updated DCE includes unavoidable undistributed (time-dependent) expenses that were underestimated or omitted in the prior estimate.
Second, the updated DCE includes the cost for full removal of the San Onofre Unit 1 offshore intake and discharge conduits because, although SCE abandoned the conduits in place in accordance with the 2005 amendment to its easement with the California State Lands Commission, SCE retains the liability for any required future removal of the conduits.
(3) The site-specific decommissioning cost estimate for San Onofre Units 2 -and 3 that was submitted to the NRC on September 23, 2014 and to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) on December 10, 2014, includes the radiological costs associated with terminating the site license, non-radiological costs, and fuel storage costs. (4) During the period between June 7, 2013 and December 31, 2015, SCE incurred costs of $374.9 million for San Onofre Unit 2 and $368.5 million for San Onofre Unit 3 ( 100% share, Nominal$).
Some of the San Onofre decommissioning co-participants have not yet withd,rawn funds for all or part of these costs from their Decommissioning Trusts. Therefore, the Net Balances are the differences between the December 31, 2015 Decommissioning Trust Balances and the 2013-2015 incurred costs. (5) SCE is submitting information with respect to its current co-owners, SDG&E and Riverside, and its former co-owner, Anaheim, on their behalf, and they are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of their respective information.

__ .. ..J FIRST AMENDMENT TO DECOMMISSIONING TRUST FUND AGREEMENT THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO DECOMMISSIONING TRUST FUND AGREEMENT
("First Amendment"), dated for purposes of identification only this \7""'<1ay of November, 2015, is made and entered into by and between the CITY OF ANAHEIM ("Anaheim"), a charter city and municipal corporation of the State of California, also referred to herein as "Grantor," and U.S. Bank National Association
("USBNA"), also referred to herein as "Trustee." RECITALS WHEREAS, Anaheim, as grantor, and The Bank of California, as trustee, previously entered into the Decommissioning Trust Fund Agreement dated November 6, 1990 ("Agreement"), incorporated herein by this reference, in order to comply with regulations in Title 10, Chapter I of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50 that require a licensee to provide assurance that funds will be available when needed for required decommissioning activities; and WHEREAS, the term "Trustee," as defined in Section l .B of the Agreement, means "the Trustee who enters into this Agreement and any successor Trustee";
and WHEREAS, in 1996, The Bank of California and Union Bank, N.A. consolidated and continued operations following that consolidation, through several different financing arrangements, as "Union Bank"; and WHEREAS, on February 1, 2012, USBNA succeeded Union Bank, N.A. as trustee on certain accounts pursuant to a Purchase and Assumption Agreement between USBNA and Union Bank dated January 27, 2012, and pursuant to Section 4879.14 of the California Financial Code. 1 As such, USBNA (as Union Bank's successor) is a party to the Agreement, as such Agreement may be amended from time to time; and WHEREAS, the Agreement reflects Federal regulations in effect at the time it was signed in 1990, including regulations that required the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
("NRC") to approve a decommissioning plan prior to the initial trust fund withdrawal request under the Agreement.
As part of a 1996 rulemaking proceeding, the NRC amended its regulations to eliminate this plan approval requirement for certain trust fund withdrawals for decommissioning activities; and WHEREAS, the NRC modified its regulations again as part of a 2002 rulemaking to require that licensees provide a 30-working-day written notice to the NRC of trust fund withdrawals, except for withdrawals made under 10 C.F.R. § 50.82(a)(8) (including expenses for legitimate decommissioning activities) and withdrawals made for payments of ordinary administrative costs and other incidental expenses of the trust fund (including legal, accounting, actuarial, and trustee expenses) in connection with the operation of the trust fund; and WHEREAS, the NRC issued Exemptions for San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station ("SONGS"), Units 2 and 3, on September 5, 2014 (NRC Document ID No. NRC 2014 0170, 79 Fed. Reg. 55,019 (Sept. 15, 2014)), allowing withdrawals from the SONGS decommissioning trust funds for irradiated fuel management and site restoration activities, without prior notification to the NRC; and WHEREAS, these regulatory changes made by the NRC, together with the Exemptions issued by the NRC specifically for SONGS Units 2 and 3, create a situation in which, after decommissioning has begun, trust fund withdrawals for expenses for legitimate 2
decommissioning activities, irradiated fuel management, and site restoration activities will not require further prior notice to the NRC; and . WHEREAS, with this First Amendment the Grantor and the Trustee wish to conform the Agreement to these NRC changes and resulting changed requirements for decommissioning trust agreements.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Grantor and the Trustee agree as follows: 1. That "SCHEDULE C -SPECIMEN CERTIFICATE OF EVENTS," referenced in Section 5 .A. and attached to the Agreement, is hereby amended in its entirety and replaced with "SCHEDULE C -FIRST AMENDED SPECIMEN CERTIFICATE OF EVENTS," as shown on Attachment 1 hereto. 2.

The disbursement or payment from the Fund may be made following the 30-working-day notice period if the Trustee does not receive written notice of objection from the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, or Director, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards, as applicable, within the notice period. "C. In the event of the Grantor's default or inability to direct decommissioning activities, the Trustee shall make payments from the Fund as the NRC shall direct, in writing, to provide for the payment of the costs of required activities covered by this Agreement.
The Trustee shall reimburse the Grantor or other persons as specified by the NRC, from the Fund for expenditures for required activities in such amounts as the NRC shall direct in writing. In addition, the Trustee shall refund to the Grantor such amounts as the NRC specifies in writing. Upon refund, such funds shall no longer constitute part of the Fund as defined herein." 3. That "SCHEDULE C-1 -FORM OF DISBURSEMENT CERTIFICATE" 1s hereby added to the Agreement, as shown on Attachment 2 hereto. 4. Except as expressly amended hereby, all the remaining prov1s1ons of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
