1. ARKAUSAS RMER & LIGHT COMPANY - TECICTICAL QUALIFICATIONS 1.1 GENERAL Arkansas Power & Light Company has over 45 years experience in the design, construction and operation of electric generating plants. Personnel of the Engineering Department of the Company have supervised and made final decisions on the design and construction of its generating plants. It has been the practice o'f the Company, however, to retain independent engineers to design and manage the construction of its generating plants under the supervision of the Company's engineers. The Production Department, which is a part of the Engineering Department of the Company, operates all of the generating plants with its personnel.

On November 1,1967, Arkansas Power & Light Cc=pany operated five steam electric generating plants containing a total of 11 units with a net capa-bility of 1,109,000 kilowatts, two hydroelectric stations with a capability of 69,000 kilowatts and diesel generating units with a total capability of 6,000 kilowatts, for a total net electric generating capability of 1,184,C00 kilowatts. At the present time the Company is constructing two additional generating units. Installaticn of Unit No. 2, a 550,000 kilowatt gas-fired generating unit, is scheduled for ccmpletion in December 1967 at the Robert E. Ritchie Steam Electric Generating Station. Unit No. 4 at the Lake Cath-erine Steen Electric Generating Station, a 530,000 kilowatt gas-fired unit, is scheduled to be completed in 1969 1.2 PARTICIPATION IN NUCLEAR PROJECT ACTIVITIES In 1957 Arkansas Power & Light Company, along with other utility companies, organised Southwest Atomic Energy Associates for the purpose of conducting research in nuclear fuels. Beginning in 1957 SAEA sponsored a research and development program conducted by Atanics International Division of North American Aviation, Inc. to develop infornation in a critical facility in the middle (epi-thermal) neutron energy region in uranium throium nuclear fuel.

This project was completed in 1963 In 1963 SAEA agreed to enter into a new research project for the purpose of investigation of an uranium-plutonium oxide fuel in a fast neutron energy environment . SAEA has joined with General Electric Company, the Atomic Energy Cc= mission and the Karlsruhe Research Center of the Federal Republic of West Germany to build and operate the Southwest Experimental Fast 0xide Reactor Facility near Fayetteville, Arkansas to carry out this research and development program. The facility is presently under construction and is expected to begin operations in May,1968.

In 1967 SAEA, along with other utility companies, agreed to participate in a cost study to be made by General Electric Company for preliminary design of the proto-type fast breeder plant of 300,000 kilowatts capacity.
