Santee Cooper Class Action Lawsuit Settlement Funds to be Distributed

Coastal Elec­tric mem­bers who received pow­er from the coop­er­a­tive between Jan­u­ary 1, 2007, and Jan­u­ary 31, 2020, may receive a bill cred­it or check in late Feb­ru­ary or March.

These cred­its are the result of the set­tle­ment of a class-action law­suit involv­ing the failed nuclear con­struc­tion project at V.C. Sum­mer Nuclear Gen­er­at­ing Sta­tion in Fair­field Coun­ty.  Mem­bers received in 2020 the dis­tri­b­u­tion of the ini­tial 70% of the set­tle­ment.  This pay­ment is the dis­tri­b­u­tion of the remain­ing 30% of the set­tle­ment.  The funds are being paid by San­tee Coop­er, as co-own­er of the project with SCE&G (now Domin­ion Ener­gy).  Coastal Elec­tric was not an own­er in the project and was not a par­ty to this case.

All of these cred­its and pay­ments are based off of your elec­tric­i­ty pur­chased dur­ing the time peri­od pre­vi­ous­ly stat­ed.  Coastal Elec­tric did not cal­cu­late the pay­ments.  These are the result from a court-approved process after a set­tle­ment agree­ment was reached between the par­ties in the class-action law­suit.

If your cred­it is cal­cu­lat­ed to be more than $50 you can expect to receive a check in the mail.  If your cred­it is cal­cu­lat­ed to be less than $50 you will receive a bill cred­it.

If you have any ques­tions regard­ing the admin­is­tra­tion of the Set­tle­ment, you may con­tact the Set­tle­ment Admin­is­tra­tor.  Please include your name and your return address on all cor­re­spon­dence.
