NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-271]


Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation; Notice of Withdrawal of 
Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
a request by Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corporation (VYNPC, the 
licensee) to withdraw its December 21, 1999, as supplemented on 
September 12 and 19, 2000, application for an amendment to Facility 
Operating License No. DPR-28, for the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power 
Station, located in Windham County, Vermont.
    The proposed amendment would have revised the Technical 
Specifications (TS) to change the control rod block requirements 
consistent with the BWR/4 Standard Technical Specifications.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment on January 26, 2000 (65 FR 4291). However, by 
letter dated December 26, 2000, the licensee withdrew the proposed 
change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated December 21, 1999, as supplemented on 
September 12 and 19, 2000, and the licensee's letter dated December 26, 
2000, which withdrew the application for license amendment. Documents 
may be examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the NRC's Public Document 
room, located at One White Flint North, 11555 Rockville Pike (first 
floor), Rockville, Maryland, 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 12th day of January 2001.
    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Robert M. Pulsifer,
Project Manager, Section 2, Project Directorate I, Division of 
Licensing Project Management, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
