Dear Messrs. Morris and Hamilton:

By letter dated May 7, 2008, you applied for an exemption from the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 50, Section 50.46, Acceptance criteria for emergency core cooling systems for light-water nuclear power reactors, and Appendix K to 10 CFR Part 50 for the Catawba Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 (Catawba 1and 2), and for the McGuire Nuclear Station, Units 1 and 2 (McGuire 1 and 2). The exemption requested relates solely to the specific types of cladding material specified in these regulations. As written, the above regulations presume the use of Zircaloy or ZIRLO' fuel rod cladding. The exemption was necessary to allow the use of M5' clad fuel at Catawba 1 and 2 and McGuire 1 and 2.

Subsequently, by letter dated October 14, 2008, you withdrew the exemption request.

The purpose of this letter is to advise that the above-cited application is being treated as withdrawn.

Sincerely,

/RA/
