See response As stated in NextEra's November 5, 2009 Request For Additional Information (RAI) Response (ML093130065), NextEra maintains a $93 million parent guaranty as decommissioning funding assurance, although the parent guaranty is no longer necessary to demonstrate reasonable assurance of decommissioning funding when relying upon the site-specific decommissioning cost estimate.7. Any material changes to trust agreements.
See response Effective April 16, 2009, the name was changed on the qualified and non-qualified trusts from FPL Energy Duane Arnold, LLC to NextEra Energy Duane Arnold, LLC to reflect a corporate name change.
