South Carolina Electric & Gas Co. and
. . . state-owned utility Santee Cooper,
. . . have sought to insulate themselves from the hemorrhaging costs of,
. . . their ill-fated joint venture at the V.C. Summer Nuclear Station,
. . . which they abandoned on July 31,
. . . after Westinghouse, the chief contractor, declared bankruptcy.

The utilities had already spent more than
. . . $9 billion by then, collecting nearly
. . . $2 billion in interest, from ratepayers.
