1 Stephen A. Byrne President, Generation & Transmission and COO South Carolina Electric & Gas Company Executive Vice President, SCANA

2 VC Summer 2 & 3 Construction Powering the Future of South Carolina

3 And Then There Were Two 18 COL applications filed with NRC 5 suspended 1 converted to ESP, then suspended Some have foreign ownership issue Most still pursuing license 3

4 4 Fukushima Impacts Most countries perform Stress Tests, not USA US NRC 90 day review Operating plants are safe Recommend continue licensing AP1000 & ESBWR Equipment, staffing, procedures will change Orders from NRC issued March yr anniversary little fanfare in US We see no supply chain issues

5 Our Situation Glad to be regulated Glad permission granted prior to drop gas price Down economy good time to build Workforce available Inflation indices low Cost recovery legislation helpful Media only looking for problems Interveners are familiar & undeterred by facts Few that started will be here when plants online Even our friends question spent fuel plan

6 Underestimated Always in negotiations COL was limiting permit, but not by much Most suppliers unprepared - Appendix B Tour requests Need for instructors & operators early Simulator earlier than anticipated People want to be involved College & university support incredible

7 Fortunate Building in Pro-Nuclear State Oconee Lee Catawba V.C. Summer & Parr HB Robinson Westinghouse Fuels SRS Barnwell Navy Nuclear training 7

8 8 NRC License in Hand VC Summer is first Subsequent or S-COL under regulation; 10CFR Part 52

9 Perplexed by 4-1 Votes NRC guideline; COL 120 days from FSER Fukushima applicable either way License condition Orders to licensee Jaczko Svinicki Apostolakis Magwood Ostendorff 9
