SUBJECT:
DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - WITHDRAWAL OF AN AMENDMENT REQUEST REGARDING CONTAINMENT REQUIREMENTS DURING MOVEMENT OF RECENTLY IRRADIATED FUEL ASSEMBLIES (TAC NOS. MC2472 AND MC2473)
Dear Mr. Nazar:
By letter dated February 14, 2004, you applied for an amendment to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-58 and DPR-74 for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. The proposed changes would have revised the facility technical specifications (TSs) governing containment penetrations and the Containment Purge and Exhaust Isolation System, which are applicable during core alterations and movement of irradiated fuel, such that those TSs would only be applicable during the movement of recently irradiated fuel. Subsequently, by letter dated November 4, 2004, you withdrew the amendment request.
The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has filed the enclosed Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License with the Office of the Federal Register for publication.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Carl F. Lyon, Project Manager, Section 1 Project Directorate III Division of Licensing Project Management Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket Nos. 50-315 and 50-316
