NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-336]


Northeast Nuclear Energy Company; Notice of Withdrawal of 
Application for Amendment of Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (NNECO) to withdraw its 
May 8, 1997, application for proposed amendment to Facility Operating 
License No. DPR-65 for the Millstone Nuclear Power Station, Unit No. 2, 
located in New London County, Connecticut.
    The proposed amendment would have revised the accuracy requirements 
of the meteorological instrumentation and supporting Bases. 
Subsequently, by letter dated November 25, 1997, NNECO withdrew the 
amendment request based on its determination that the subject 
instrumentation accuracies can be significantly improved by 
implementing modifications. It is further indicated that the 
modifications will result in improving the overall system accuracy such 
that the existing Technical Specifications for the Millstone Nuclear 
Power Station, Unit No. 2, will be complied with.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on June 4, 1997 
(62 FR 30634). However, by letter dated November 25, 1997, the licensee 
withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated May 8, 1997, and the licensee's letter 
dated November 25, 1997, which withdrew the application for license 
amendment. The above documents are available for public inspection at 
the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L 
Street, NW., Washington, DC, and at the local public document room 
located at the Learning Resources Center, Three Rivers Community-
Technical College, 574 New London Turnpike, Norwich, CT 06360, and the 
Waterford Library, ATTN: Vince Juliano, 49 Rope Ferry Road, Waterford, 
CT 06385.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 16th day of December 1997.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
