M12279 · Nova Scotia Power Inc. - CI C0051136 – TUC2 HP/IP Turbine Refurbishment – $5,965,028 (ATO)
AI summary
  • Board Staff IR-1 (due July 2, 2025) targets a combined ~$1.63M labour and contracts variance between the original application and the ATO, requesting task-level breakdowns of regular, contract, and overtime hours for both the original and expanded scopes (Exhibit 321679, pp. 1–2).
  • IR-1(b) probes the $366,864 overtime labour overrun, specifically whether Nova Scotia Power Incorporated resources mobilized from other provincial regions could have been replaced by local or outsourced labour at lower cost.
  • IR-1(c) requires NSPI to list all outages (times and durations) necessitated by the project and to supply vendor cost-support documentation for additional materials and contract charges attributed to Siemens.
  • IR-2 asks whether lessons learned from Siemens and NSPI's acknowledged conservative estimation will be incorporated into future cost estimates for similar turbine refurbishment projects, or, if not, why not.
