Bn FURNITURE D OUTLET Power agency sells bonds RALEIGH - The North Carolina Local Government Commission sold ? $450 million issue of electric revenue bonds Friday on behalf of North Carolina Eastern Municipal Power Agency (NCEMPA). The Board of Commissioners of the Power Agency met at U a.m. in the Wilson City Council chambers to confirm the sale. The Agency's lead underwriter, Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Co., reported that the tax exempt issue had t^een fully sub scribed. The true interest cost of <thfe entire loan was 13.30 percent. The issue was rated "A" by Moody's, and Standard & Poor's, the independent rating agencies. The bonds are in denominations of $5,000. It is the second issue for the Power Agency, which represents 32 municipal electric systems in eastern North Carolina. Initially, NCEMPA issued $400 million in bonds on April 1, 1982. Proceeds from this bond sale will be used to purchase additional owner ship interests in seven generating units presently operating or under construction on the Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L) system . Over the next year, NCEMPA plans to issue an estimated $400 million in additional bonds and notes to com plete closing of its purchase with CP&L. To complete acquisition and con struction of all units included in the joint project with CP&L, the Agency will issue an estimated total of $2.7 billion in bonds through 1993. An engineering report prepared for the Agency estimated that over the next 20 years, the Agency's power 4 costs will be 5.5 to 6 percent lower than the cost of the same amount of oower bought at wholesale from the private utilities. It projects cumulative monetary savings of $1.1 billion through the same period and $6 billion over the life of the bonds. Principal and interest on the bonds will be paid from the revenues of the electric utilities operated by the municipalities participating in the Agency project.
