Page 2 of 2 Constellation Energy Group Underlying Assumptions for Projected Cash Flows (1)

Depreciation is generally computed using composite straight-line rates applied to the average investment in classes of depreciable property. Vehicles are depreciated based on their estimated useful lives.

(2)

Estimates of Federal income taxes and other tax expense are based upon existing tax laws and any known changes thereto.

(3)

Accounting policies are consistent with those in effect June 30, 2002.

ATTACHMENT 3 NARRATIVE STATEMENT CURTAILMENT OF CAPITAL EXPENDITURES Constellation Energy Group Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station August 16, 2002

Page 1 of 1 Constellation Energy Group Curtailment of Capital Expenditures Estimated construction expenditures including nuclear fuel and Allowance for Funds Used During Construction for the twelve months ended July 31, 2003 are $795.5 million. To insure that retrospective premiums under the Price Anderson Act would be available during the aforementioned twelve month period without additional funds from external sources, construction curtailments would affect all construction expenditures rather than impacting a specific project.
