Subsequently, by letter dated March 6, 2009, TVA requested to withdraw the amendment request. Based on this request the Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff will terminate its review of the proposed change and close TAC No. ME0334.
The 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.
