The $504 million to be distributed is a partial payment to holders of bonds bought between Feb. 23, 1977, and June 15, 1983. An additional $147 million will go to Chemical Bank, the trustee, for future distribution to holders of WPPSS project No. 4 and No. 5 bonds. WPPSS is a consortium of public utilities that set out in the 1970s to build five nuclear plants for Northwest customers. Only one plant was completed.
