WITHDRAWAL OF LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST OL-1225 REGARDING PROPOSED CHANGES TO TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR EXTENSION OF REQUIRED ACTION COMPLETION TIMES FOR DIESEL GENERATORS Reference 1: AmerenUE Letter ULNRC-04866, "License Amendment Request OL-1225 - Revision to Technical Specifications for Extension of Required Action Completion Time for Diesel Generators," dated June 27, 2003 Reference 2:
Reference 3:
AmerenUE Letter ULNRC-04917, "Revision of License Amendment Request OL-1225 Regarding Proposed Changes to Technical Specification for Extension of Required Action Completion Times for Diesel Generators," dated December 19, 2003 AmerenUE Letter ULNRC-04911, "Response to Request for Additional Information Regarding License Amendment Request OL-1225 (Revision to Technical Specifications for Extension of Required Action Completion Time for Diesel Generators)," dated January 30, 2004 Per the letter of Reference 1, and as supplemented and/or revised by the letters identified as References 2 and 3, Union Electric Company (AmerenUE) submitted to the NRC an application for amendment of the Callaway Facility Operating License (License No. NPF-30) to incorporate proposed changes to the Technical Specifications. The essential change that was proposed would have revised Technical Specification (TS) 3.8.1, "AC Sources - Operating," to allow a longer Required Action Completion Time (allowed outage time) for an inoperable diesel generator, based on a risk-informed evaluation of the longer Completion Time, when removing the diesel generator from service to perform voluntary, planned maintenance.

ULNRC-05 165 June 28, 2005 Page 2 The subject amendment request is still under review by the NRC staff.
However, a telephone conversation was conducted between AmerenUE and NRC personnel on May 26, 2005 to discuss the status and continued NRC review of AmerenUE's amendment application, and it was determined that the amendment request should be withdrawn. This letter is therefore submitted to request withdrawal of AmerenUE's amendment application, based on the May 26 discussion.
Please contact us for any questions you may have regarding the requested action.
Very truly yours, vdi Keith D. Young Manager - Regulatory Affairs TBE/jdg
