SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The NRC has granted the request of Exelon to withdraw its application dated November 2, 2020 (ADAMS Accession No. ML20307A434) for proposed amendments to Amended Facility Operating License No. DPR-2 and Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-19 and DPR-25 for Dresden, Units 1, 2, and 3, respectively, and the general license for the ISFSI, which are located in Grundy County, Illinois. Exelon is the licensee that owns and operates Dresden and its ISFSI. The proposed amendments would have revised the Dresden emergency plan following the permanent cessation of 2

However, by letter dated September 15, 2021 (ADAMS Accession No. ML21258A281), Exelon requested to withdraw the proposed amendments.
