SCE&G Contract Could Open Path to Privatized SRS Operations
SCE&G would take over D Area power plant, 16 substations, and 100 miles of transmission lines at the Savannah River Site under a 10 year lease for the plant and 40 years for the lines. Officials say the deal could save about 200 million in operating costs and 90 million in refurbishments, aiding privatization of the facility near Aiken County. SCE&G already operates the V. C. Summer plant and watches a proposed multi purpose reactor plan involving other utilities.
