NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-220]


Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation; Notice of Withdrawal of 
Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) is 
permitting the withdrawal of Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation's (the 
licensee) application of September 20, 1996, regarding the proposed 
amendment to Facility Operating License No. DPR-63 for Nine Mile Point 
Nuclear Station, Unit No. 1, located in Oswego County, New York.
    The proposed amendment would have revised the facility technical 
specifications by changing certain surveillance requirements currently 
performed during refueling outages such that the surveillance 
requirements could be performed when the reactor is operating or during 
outage periods not associated with refueling. The Commission had 
previously issued a Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment 
published in the Federal Register on December 18, 1996 (61 FR 66709). 
However, by letter dated March 12, 1998, the licensee withdrew the 
proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated September 20, 1996, and the licensee's 
letter dated March 12, 1998, 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 Reference and Documents Department, Penfield Library, 
State University of New York, Oswego, New York 13126.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 31st day of March 1998.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Darl S. Hood,
Senior Project Manager, Project Directorate I-1, Division of Reactor 
Projects--I/II, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
