NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. STN 50-456, STN 50-457, STN 50-454, and STN 50-455; NRC-
2010-0329]


Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2 and Byron Station, Unit Nos. 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 Exelon Generation Company, LLC (the licensee) to 
withdraw its March 26, 2009, application for proposed amendments to 
Facility Operating License Nos. NPF-72 and NPF-77 for Braidwood 
Station, Units 1 and 2, respectively, located in Will County, Illinois, 
and to Facility Operating License Nos. NPF-37 and NPF-66 for Byron 
Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, located in Ogle County, 
Illinois.
    The proposed amendment would have revised the fire protection 
program to eliminate the requirement for the backup manual carbon 
dioxide fire suppression system in the upper cable spreading rooms.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on May 19, 2009 
(74 FR 23445). However, by letter dated September 20, 2010, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated March 26, 2009, as supplemented by 
letters dated September 10, 2009, March 15, and May 27, 2010, and the 
licensee's letter dated September 20, 2010, which withdrew the 
application for license amendment. Documents may be examined, and/or
