NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-482]


Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation; Notice of Withdrawal of 
Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) 
has granted the request of Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation 
(the licensee) to withdraw its December 13, 1995, application for 
proposed amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-42 for the 
Wolf Creek Generating Station, located in Coffey County Kansas.
    The proposed amendment would have revised Surveillance Requirement 
4.1.3.1.3 to delete the requirement for performing the control rod drop 
surveillance test with Tave greater than or equal to 551 deg.F. 
This would have allowed performing the test with Tave below 
551 deg.F. This change would have also added justification to the Bases 
for the performance of the rod drop test with Tave below 
551 deg.F.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on January 22, 
1996 (61 FR 1640). However, by letter dated December 12, 1996, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated December 13, 1995, and the licensee's 
letter dated December 12, 1996, 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, 
N.W., Washington, D.C., and the local public documents rooms located at 
Emporia State University, William Allen White Library, 1200 Commercial 
Street, Emporia, Kansas 66801 and Washburn University School of Law 
Library, Topeka, Kansas 66621.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 6th day of January 1997.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
James C. Stone,
Senior Project Manager, Project Directorate IV-2, Division of Reactor 
Projects III/IV, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
