) 50-453 (Greenwood Energy Center, )
Units 2 and 3) )
REQUEST FOR WITHDRAWAL OF APPLICATION On March 24, 1980, the Board of Directors of The Detroit Edison Company (" Detroit Edison") announced their decision to cancel plans to construct two nuclear power reactors at the Greenwood Energy Center. Given the sub-stantial uncertainties now associated with building and licensing a new nuclear power plant, the Greenwood units can no longer be expected to be completed as scheduled or within current estimates of cost. Therefore, Detroit Edison has decided that to continue with the design and l
engineering of the units would not be a prudent allocation ;
1 of its resources. 1 Detroit Edison filed its application for licenses to j i
construct, possess, use and operate the Greenwood nuclear i
units on June 4, 1973. A notice of hearing on the application l was published on October 30, 1973. 38 Fed. Reg. 29,908.
