## Abstract

On rehearing, the Commission is amending its rules governing the formation, organization and operation of nuclear plant decommissioning trust funds (Fund) and Fund investments: To remove the requirement that a Fund investment manager must have a net worth of at least $100 million (although it is retaining the $100 million net worth requirement for the Trustee); and to allow public utilities with nuclear units to maintain nuclear decommissioning trust funds that include both Commission-jurisdictional and non-Commission- jurisdictional trust fund collections. The Commission is also making certain corrections and providing certain clarifications, and confirming its conclusion that a public utility may not itself make individual investment decisions.
