NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc.; Georgia Power Company;
Oglethorpe Power Corporation; Municipal Electric Authority of Georgia;
City of Dalton, Georgia; Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 1 and
2; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to Facility
Operating License
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted
the request of Southern Nuclear Operating Corporation (the licensee) to
withdraw its application dated November 30, 2007, with supplemental
letters dated February 13, 2008, for proposed amendment to Facility
Operating Licenses No. NPF-68 and No. NPF-81 for the Vogtle Electric
Generating Plant, Units No. 1 and 2, located in Burke County, Georgia.
The proposed amendment would have changed TS 5.5.9 to modify the
inspection and plugging requirements for portions of Steam Generator
(SG) tubes within the hot leg side of the tubesheet region of the SGs.
The proposed changes to TS 5.6.10 would have added requirements to
report specific data related to indications, leakage detected, and
calculated accident leakage.
The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of
Issuance of Amendment, on the above proposed amendment application,
that was published in the Federal Register on December 18, 2007 (72 FR
71715). However, by letter dated April 18, 2008, the licensee withdrew
the proposed amendment.
For further details with respect to this action, see the
application for amendment dated November 30, 2007 (Agencywide Documents
Access Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML073380099), with
additional information provided by letter dated February 13, 2008, and
the licensee's letter dated April 18, 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
