GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY (GENERAL ELECTRIC MORRIS OPERATION SPENT FUEL STORAGE FACILITY)
NOTICE OF WITH0RAWAL OF APPLICATION FOR AMENDMENT TO EXPAND SPENT FUEL STORAGE CAPACITY AT THE GENERAL ELECTRIC MORRIS OPERATION On August 27, 1982, counsel for General Electric Company filed a motion with the presiding Atomic Safety and Licensing Board ("ASLB" or "the Board") requesting the Board to enter an order 1) granting it leave to withdraw its application, dated April 30, 1977, to expand the spent fuel storage capacity of its GE Morris Operation and 2) dismissing the proceeding without prejudice. A Notice of Consideration of Proposed Modification to GE Morris Operation Fuel Storage Facility was published in the FEDERAL REGISTER on August 18,1977 (42 FR 41675). The prcceedings related to the application have been suspended since December 14, 1977, when, prior to any ruling on petitions for leave to intervene, the Board suspended the proceedings at the Applicant's request, in view of the announcement by the Department of Energy ("00E") of the proposed government policy concerning spent fuel.
m a-voo Thus, no safety or environmental hearings were held and no authorization 20' g@
was issued for expansion of the spent fuel storage capacity at GE Morris am0 8
pursuant to the Applicant's proposal.
In its motion of August 27, 1982 og r)v og requesting permission to withdraw its application, the Applicant cited the ox Q
DOE policy on spent fuel and 10 CFR Part 72, which would require a new rua application in the event that General Electric desired to expand the spent omcE p.... fuel storage capacity at the Morris Operation.
