i te estimated cost of operating the nuclear facility for a five-year period is $44,000,000. mis cost does not include annual carrying charges, l

but cbes include fuel, operating, and maintenance costs.

i We applicant has not fornulated plans for pernunently shutting cbe the utilization facility and maintaining it in a safe mndition if and ' hen it may occur, Ecwever, assuming shutdown measures ocmparable to those author-

! ized by the Atomic Energy Ocamissicn for the retirenent of the Hallan Nuclear Powr Facility, it is estimated that the cost of such shutdown for the tenti-

! cello utilization facility would not be in excess of $6,000,000, based on tr>-

I l

day's costs.

W e $6,000,000 cost of shutting down the facility represents a small per-t

~

centage of the estimated $150,000,000 per year of construction expenditures

! being made by NSP. % e $750,000 annual carrying charges associated with the

$6,000,000 investment can be coapared with N5P's 1968 annual revenue of $291,000,000.

j In the past NSP has successfully financed its requirenents for construction and its revenues have been adequate to cxwer cperating expenses nd there is reason-able assurance that NSP can obtain the funds necessary for shutting down the utilization facility and maintaining it in a safe mndition.
