Adding Nuclear Power to the Grid ASQ Energy and Environmental Conference August 28, 2006

Overview  Why New Nuclear Plants Today  Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) Approach  SNC Approach to Quality  Use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS)  Challenges

Why New Nuclear Plants Today  Improved Public Acceptance of Nuclear Power  Revised Regulatory Licensing Framework  10 CFR 52, Early Site Permits; Standard Design Certifications; and Combined Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants  Improved Nuclear Power Plant Designs  Environmentally Sound  Progress in Establishing a Federal Repository for Used Nuclear Fuel  Energy Policy Act of 2005  Economically Competitive

SNC Approach  Add Two Nuclear Plants to an Existing Site  Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Burke County, Georgia  Use Westinghouse AP1000 Technology  Submitted Early Site Permit Application, August 2006  Plan to Submit Combined Construction and Operating License Application, March 2008  Begin Construction, 2010  Begin Operation of One New Unit, 2015  Begin Operation of Second New Unit, 2016

SNC Approach to Quality  Member of NuStart  Consortium of nuclear electrical generating companies and nuclear reactor manufactures  Demonstrate the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s process for obtaining a COL  Complete design engineering for selected technologies  Implemented Quality Assurance Program Based on 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Reprocessing Plants  Series of Internal, Peer, and Management Reviews

Use of GIS  Evacuation Time Estimate Study Report  Used GIS software to process geographic data and associated population counts  GIS data used to build evacuation network database  Environmental Report  GIS software used to determine demographic characteristics in the 50 mile region surrounding the proposed plant

Challenges:  Continued Safe Operation of Existing Nuclear Plants  Proving the Viability of the Licensing Process  Confirming Cost Estimates  Constructing on Time and Within Budget  Continuing Progress on the Federal Repository for Used Nuclear Fuel
