NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 50-327 and 50-328]

 

Tennessee Valley Authority; Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 
2; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to Facility 
Operating License

    The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) 
has granted the request of the Tennessee Valley Authority (the 
licensee) to withdraw its November 18, 1992 application for proposed 
amendments to Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-77 and DPR-79 for the 
Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, located in Soddy Daisy, 
Tennessee.
    The proposed changes would have modified the facility technical 
specifications pertaining to alternate steam generator tube plugging 
criteria that was designed to take into account the reinforcing effect 
that the steam generator tubesheet has on the external surface of 
expanded steam generator tubes referred to as Westinghouse Explosive 
Tube Expansion (WEXTEX) region. The new criteria was designed to reduce 
the need for repairing or plugging steam generator tubes having 
indications that exceed the current technical specification depth-based 
plugging limit.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on February 3, 
1993 (58 FR 7006). However, by letter dated June 28, 1994, the licensee 
withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated November 18, 1992 (which was 
supplemented by letter dated January 8, 1993), and the licensee's 
letter dated June 28, 1994, which withdrew the application for license 
amendment. The above documents are available for public inspection at 
the Commission's Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, 
DC, and at the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Library, 1001 Broad Street, 
Chattanooga, Tennessee 37402.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland this 5th day of July 1994.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
David E. LaBarge,
Senior Project Manager, Project Directorate II-4, Division of Reactor 
Projects--I/II, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
