NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[NRC-2011-0093; Docket No. 50-400]


Carolina Power And Light Company; Notice of Withdrawal of 
Application for Amendment to Renewed Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, the Commission) has 
granted the request of the Carolina Power and Light Company (the 
licensee) to withdraw its application dated March 28, 2010, as 
supplemented by letter dated December 9, 2010, for a proposed amendment 
to Renewed Facility Operating License No. NPF-63 for the Shearon Harris 
Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1, located in Wake County, North Carolina.
    The proposed amendment would have modified revise Technical 
Specification Section 6.9.1.6 to add the NRC-approved topical report, 
EMF-2103(P)(A), Revision 0, ``Realistic Large-Break LOCA [Loss-of-
Coolant Accident] Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors,'' to the 
Core Operating Limits Report methodologies list. This change would have 
allowed the use of the thermal-hydraulic computer analysis code S-
RELAP5 for the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Chapter 15 realistic 
large-break LOCA in the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1 
safety analyses. Topical Report, EMF-2103(P)(A), Revision 0, was 
approved by the NRC on April 9, 2003, for the application of the S-
RELAP5 thermal-hydraulic analysis computer code to FSAR Chapter 15 
realistic large-break LOCA.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on June 8, 
2010, (75 FR 32511). However, by letter dated March 28, 2011, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated March 23, 2010
