NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. STN 50-454 and STN 50-455]


Commonwealth Edison Company, Byron Station, Units 1 and 2; Notice 
of Withdrawal of Application for Amendments to Facility Operating 
Licenses

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd, the licensee) to 
withdraw its October 16, 1997, application for proposed amendments to 
Facility Operating Licenses Nos. NPF-37 and NPF-66 for the Byron 
Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, located in Ogle County, Illinois.
    The proposed amendments would have revised the license of Byron, 
Unit 1, to incorporate an exemption from 10 CFR 70.24(a) consistent 
with the Unit 2 license. The Unit 2 license would have been amended 
accordingly.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendments published in the Federal Register on April 22, 
1998 (63 FR 19966). However, by letter dated January 6, 2000, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed changes.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendments dated October 16, 1997, and the licensee's 
letter dated January 6, 2000, which withdrew the application for 
license amendments. 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 accessible 
electronically through the ADAMS Public Electronic Reading Room link at 
the NRC Web site (http://www.nrc.gov).

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 15th day of February 2000.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
George F. Dick, Jr.,
Sr. Project Manager, Section 2, Project Directorate III, Division of 
Licensing Project Management, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
