Item 8.01 Other Events.

Approval of Completion of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2

     On August 1, 2007 the TVA Board approved the completion of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2 (“Watts Bar Unit 2”) upon which construction was halted in 1985. Prior to the decision, a detailed scoping, estimating, and planning study was conducted to assess the project’s cost, schedule, and risks. Separately, TVA has prepared a report evaluating potential environmental impacts as required by the National Environmental Policy Act. TVA has a construction permit from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”) for Watts Bar Unit 2 that expires in 2010 and will need to seek an extension of its construction permit in order to complete construction activities. TVA intends to seek an operating license under NRC regulations, including an opportunity for a public hearing. Completing Watts Bar Unit 2 is expected to take sixty months and cost approximately $2.49 billion, excluding allowance for funds used during construction and initial nuclear fuel core costs. When completed, the nuclear unit is expected to provide 1,180 megawatts of electricity. Some activities at the site are expected to begin October 1, 2007. On August 3, 2007, TVA notified the NRC of its plan to resume unlimited construction activities on December 3, 2007.

Commencement of Commercial Operations of Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 1

     On August 1, 2007, Unit 1 at TVA’s Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant began commercial operation.
