Dear Mr. Halpin:

By letter dated March 8, 2017 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML17068A095), Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E, the licensee) requested the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) approval of an exemption from the recordkeeping requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B. Criterion XVII; 10 CFR 50.59(d)(3); and 10 CFR 50.71(c). You proposed to eliminate these records for the nuclear power unit and associated systems, structures, and components (SSCs) that no longer exist, including SSCs that were associated with decommissioning and storage of spent fuel under the Part 50 license for Humboldt Bay Power

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRC's ADAMS.
