SUBJECT:
MILLSTONE NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNIT NO. 3 - WITHDRAWAL OF AN AMENDMENT REQUEST (TAC NO. M94156)
?
Dear Mr. Bowling:
By letter dated November 21,1995, Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (NNECO) applied for an amendment to the Millstone Nuclear Power Station, Unit 3, Facility Operating License No.
- NPF-49. The proposed change would have modified the facility technical specifications (TSs) pertaining to TSs Section 1.33 and Bases Sections 3/4.3.3.9,3/4.3.3.10, and 3/4.11.2.1. The change would have clarified the definition of source check to include a source check from a light emitting diode, as well as from ionizing radiation. Subsequently, NNECO determined that it would not pursue this issue; and, during a meeting on July 7,1998, between members of the
< Millstone Unit 3 licensing staff and myself, they explained that NNECO planned to withdraw the amendment.
~
Unless NNECO notifies us that we are incorrect within 15 days of the date of this letter, we will consider the application as withdrawn and will file a Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License with the Office of the Federal Register for publication and close this action.
Sincerely,
[
