Santee Cooper says the project would create 'thousands of temporary construction jobs and hundreds of permanent operational jobs' (no figures; ANS 2025-12-10, WNN 2025-10-27). The MOU requires Brookfield to draft an economic development plan covering use of South Carolina companies and labor, K-12 and higher-education partnerships, and workforce development (SC Daily Gazette; see unverified_notes). University of South Carolina and Westinghouse signed an AP1000 workforce development agreement 2026-09-29 for a planned USC Nuclear Innovation Center; USC plans to request $100M from the state legislature (WRDW 2026-09-30).

Site town/county (Jenkinsville, Fairfield County) is from the caller's candidate list and is the long-established V.C. Summer location; no page opened in this session stated it. Economic development plan terms come from a search-result snippet; the SC Daily Gazette and WLTX pages returned 403. The 2019 COL termination date comes from search-result snippets of an NRC letter and the 2019-03-13 Federal Register notice; the notice page itself was not opened. No completion date has been stated by Santee Cooper or Brookfield. The USC-Westinghouse agreement covers AP1000 fleet deployment in general and is not specific to V.C. Summer; per WRDW it commits Westinghouse to no investment.
