House vote to pass Base Load Review

The act that allowed utilities to charge customers for two now failed reactors in Jenkinsville, SC was passed in 2007. This legislation, the Base Load Review Act, passed both chambers  with overwhelming support in less than 3 months with no regard to how this bill would impact South Carolinians.

Now, 10 years later, energy consumers have seen their rates skyrocket and both SCE&G and Santee Cooper have pulled out of the project. Billions have been spent and there is nothing to show for it.

The House members listed below voted for the 2007 bill.
