NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-331]
FPL Energy Duane Arnold, LLC; Notice of Withdrawal of Application
for Amendment to Facility Operating License No. DPR-49
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, the Commission) has
granted the request of FPL Energy Duane Arnold, LLC (the licensee) to
withdraw its November 14, 2007, application for proposed amendment
(Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession
No. ML073320232) to Facility Operating License No. DPR-49 for the Duane
Arnold Energy Center, located in Linn County.
The proposed amendment would have revised Technical Specification
(TS) 5.5.12, ``Primary Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program,'' to
allow use of the requirements of American Society of Mechanical
Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (the Code), Section
XI, Subsection IWE for visual examination of the steel containment.
This license amendment request was consistent with NRC-approved
Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF) Traveler number TSTF-343,
Revision 1, ``Containment Structural Integrity.''
The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on January 28,
2008 (73 FR 5220). However, by letter dated April 23, 2008, ADAMS
Accession No. ML081270233, the licensee withdrew the proposed change.
For further details with respect to this action, see the
application for amendment dated November 14, 2007, and the licensee's
letter dated April 23, 2008, which withdrew the application for license
amendment. Documents may be examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the
NRC's Public Document Room (PDR), located at One White Flint North,
