Financial Condition of British Energy Could Reflect on Bruce Power
LCG, Sep. 6, 2002--With the privatized British Energy seeking U.K. intervention to prevent insolvency, conditions at one of its subsidiary's nuclear plants in Canada are seen as having the potential to be adversely affected.The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission would like assurance that during the next six months, Bruce Power will have the financial resources to operate its eight nuclear reactors in Ontario without trouble. The commission's request is a part of its normal role, in which nuclear operators are required to provide updates at three month intervals."As one of the conditions of its operating license, Bruce Power is required to have financial guarantees that if ever they should have to cease operations there would be financing available to them to cover their operations for six months to ensure a safe shutdown," spokesman Michel Cleroux of the CNSC disclosed to Reuters.If British Energy, as an 82-percent owner of Bruce Power, cannot provide adequate reassurance to the licensing body, Bruce Power would need to seek its own financing arrangements. Bruce Power is also owned by Cameco Corp., a miner of uranium.
