A SCANA lawyer has done what few are likely to do – accept blame.
He admitted he blacked out critical parts of the $1 million Bechtel audit of SCANA’s nuclear project.
Attorney  George Wenick told the Public Service Commission that company executives did not intentionally withhold vital information from regulators, their investors and their ratepayers. 
Wenick denied SCANA executives ordered him to delete information that could have raised doubts about the $9 billion project. 
Wenick was responsible for hiring Bechtel, one of the world’s largest construction and engineering firms, to review the failing project in 2015
