NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-423]


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

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
a request by Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (the licensee) to 
withdraw its November 21, 1995, application for an amendment to 
Facility Operating License No. NPF-49, issued to the licensee for 
operation of Millstone Nuclear Power Station, Unit No. 3, located in 
New London County, Connecticut. A Notice of Consideration of Issuance 
of this amendment was published in the Federal Register on March 27, 
1996 (61 FR 13520).
    The proposed change would have modified the facility Technical 
Specifications (TSs) pertaining to TS Section 1.33 and Bases Sections 
3/4.3.3.9, 3/4.3.3.10, and 3/4.11.2.1. The change would have clarified 
the definition of source check to include a source check from a light 
emitting diode, as well as from ionizing radiation.
    Subsequently, the licensee informed the staff that the amendment is 
no longer required. Thus, the amendment application is considered to be 
withdrawn by the licensee.
    For further details with respect to this action, see (1) the 
application for amendment dated November 21, 1995; and (2) the staff's 
letters dated July 14, 1998, and July 30, 1998.
    These 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 rooms located at 
the Learning Resources Center, Three Rivers Community-Technical 
College, 574 New London Turnpike, Norwich, Connecticut, and the 
Waterford Library, ATTN: Vince Juliano, 49 Rope Ferry Road, Waterford, 
Connecticut.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 30th day of July 1998.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
James W. Andersen,
Project Manager, Special Projects Office--Licensing, Office of Nuclear 
Reactor Regulation.
