NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-302; NRC-2011-0248]


Florida Power Corporation; Notice of Withdrawal of Application 
for Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) has 
granted the request of Florida Power Corporation (the licensee) to 
withdraw its March 24, 2011, application for proposed amendment to 
Facility Operating License No. DPR-72 for the Crystal River Unit 3 
Nuclear Generating Plant located in Citrus County, Florida.
    The proposed amendment would have modified the facility technical 
specifications to adopt Technical Specification Task Force (TSTF), 
Improved Standard Technical Specifications Change Traveler, TSTF-248, 
Revision 0, ``Revise Shutdown Margin Definition for Stuck Rod 
Exception.'' The proposed amendment would have revised the definition 
of shutdown margin to include a provision allowing an exception to the 
highest reactivity worth stuck control rod penalty if there are two 
independent means of confirming that all control rods are fully 
inserted in the reactor core.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on June 28, 
2011 (76 FR 37848). However, by letter dated September 7, 2011, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated March 24, 2011, and the licensee's 
letter dated September 7, 2011, 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
