DUKE POWER COMPANY ,' -

My name is Donald B. Blackmon. I am a Desiga_. Engineer in the Design Engineering Department, Duke Power Company. My business address is 422 South Church Street, Charlotte, North Carolina. I have been employed by Duke Power Company, with the exception of several months ' active duty with the U. S.

Army, since August, 1970. During this period I have progressed in various responsibilities in the Design Engineering Department to my current job responsibility as a group leader in the Environmental Section.

I am a graduate of The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina with a degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. In addition to my undergraduate degree, I have taken courses in business, economics, accounting, and managerial skills at the University of North Carolina at Cnarlotte. I have also com-pleted short-course educational sessions in land use planning, engineering economics, foundations engineering, and value impact analysis. I have attended many workshops concerned with power plant siting, power plant development, and the environmental effects of power stations.

_2-I am a member of the Southeastern Electric Exchange Environmental Committee, the Atomic Industrial Forum Value Impact Committee, and I served in the 1973 N. C. Land Use Congress. I am a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers,. the American Nuclear Society, and the Water Pollution Control Federation. I am a Registered Professional Engineer in North Carolina and South Carolina.

My employment at Duke Power Company in the Design Engineer-ing Department has been directed toward responsibilities in structural design, earthwork and drainage design, and in various studies associated with new power plants. These studies include the engineering and environmental siting work for the Catawba, Cherokee, and Perkins Nuclear Stations. I was responsible for the coordination and preparation of the Construction Permits and Environmental Reports for the Catawba, Cherokee, and Perkins Nuclear Stations, and for the Operating License-Environmental Re po rts for the McGuire and Catawba Nuclear Stations. I have completed engineering and environmental studies concerning the cooling water alternatives for the Catawba Nuclear Station. I was responsible for, supervised, and produced much of the engineering work associated with the flood studies, low flow analysis, and flow frequency studies for the Cherokee and Perkins

Nuclear Stations. I am currently involved in the coordination and supervision of Duke's power plant siting program, our water resource analysis programs, and from an engineering viewpoint, system generation expansion studies.
