1 Re: Pacific Gas and Electric Company; Humboldt Bay Power Plant, Unit 3; Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2; NRC Docket Nos. 50-133, 50-275, and 50-323
Dear Mr. Bloom:
As I have previously advised by telephone, Modesto Irrigation District ("MID") is 1 no longer seeking an additional interconnection with Pacific Gas and Electric Company ("PG&E") !
I at Pittsburg, California and the matters first addressed in MID's April 29,1996 Comments in opposition to the restructuring of PG&E have now become moot.
Based upon MID's initial comments and subsequent correspondence, your office initiated an investigation as to whether PG&E, in refusing to interconnect with MID and provide i transmission service to MID's Pittsburg Substation under PG&E's Control Area Transmission l l Service Agreement with Destec,was in violation of PG&E's nuclear license conditions in its ;
licenses for the Humboldt Bay Power Plant, Unit 3 and Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, '
Units 1 and 2.

~
.; t We appreciate your effons and those of the NRC Staff that have devoted time and ,
attention to this matter. Unfortunately, superseding developments have led MID to abandon its plans,to provide electric service to Praxair, Inc. and other potential customers in Pittsburg, ,
l California at this time. MID is pursuing its remedy against both PG&E and Destec in an antitrust ;
l suit in the Federal District Court for the Northern District of California.
.i
- Under these circumstances, we see no useful purpose in continuing to pursue this ;
l matter before the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. MID, therefore, respectfully withdraws its l complaint and request for reliefin these proceedings and asks that the NRC close its files on the l l
investigation. i l Again, we appreciate your interest and attention to this matter. Please advise ,
whether you will need anything further from MID to terminate your inquiry or close your files.
Sincerely, !
