7590-01-P UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULAiORY COMMISSION BOSTON EDISON COMPANY DOCKET NO. 50-293 NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL OF APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF INDIRECT TRANSFER OF FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE

' The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted the request of Boston Edison Company (BECo) to withdraw its February 3,1999, application, as supplemented on May 27,1999, by BECo for approval of the indirect transfer of the Facility Operating License for the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (Pilgrim).

The application was seeking approval of the indirect transfer of the Facility Operating License for Pilgrim held by BECo. The indirect transfer would have resulted from the planned formation of a new holding company, NSTAR, of which Commonwealth Energy System and BEC Energy, the parent company of BECo, are to become wholly owned subsidiaries. The approvalis no longer needed since BECo sold its interest in Pilgrim to Entergy Nuclear Generation Company on July 13,1999, and no longer holds the license for Pilgrim.

The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of Approval of Application Regarding Proposed Corporate Merger and Opportunity for Hearing published in the FEDERAL REGISTER on June 17,1999 (64 FR 32556). However, by letter dated July 20, 1999, the applicant, through counsel, withdrew the application.

1 For further details with respect to this action, see the application dated February 3,1999, as supplemented May 27,1999, and the applicant's letter dated July 20,1999, which withdrew the application for approval of the indirect transfer. The above documents are available for public j i
