NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[Docket No. 50–285] 

Omaha Public Power District Notice of 

Withdrawal of Application for 

Amendment to Facility Operating 

License 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (the Commission) has 

granted the request of Omaha Public 

Power District (the licensee) to 

withdraw its May 14, 2004, application 

for proposed amendment to Facility 

Operating License No. DPR–40 for the 

Fort Calhoun Station, Unit No. 1 (FCS), 

located in Washington County, 

Nebraska. 

The proposed amendment would 

have revised the Technical 

Specifications Section 2.3(2)b, 

‘‘Modification of Minimum 

Requirements.’’ Specifically, the 

proposed change would have provided 

a risk-informed alternative to the 

existing restoration period for the HighPressure Safety Injection System. 

The Commission had previously 

issued a Notice of Consideration of 

Issuance of Amendment published in 

the Federal Register on July 6, 2004 (69 

FR 40677). However, by letter dated 

August 25, 2006, the licensee withdrew 

the proposed change. 

For further details with respect to this 

action, see the application for 

amendment dated May 14, 2004, and 

the licensee’s letter dated August 25, 

2006, 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, 

Public File Area O1 F21, 11555 

Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville, 

Maryland. Publicly available records 

will be accessible electronically from 

the Agencywide Documents Access and 

Management Systems (ADAMS) Public 

Electronic Reading Room on the internet 

at the NRC Web site, http:// 

www.nrc.gov/reading-rm.html. Persons 

who do not have access to ADAMS or 

who encounter problems in accessing 

the documents located in ADAMS 

should contact the NRC PDR Reference 

staff by telephone at 1–800–397–4209, 

or 301–415–4737 or by e-mail to 

pdr@nrc.gov.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

Notice of Opportunity To Comment on 

Model Application on Technical 

Specification Improvement To Modify 

Requirements Regarding LCO 3.10.1, 

Inservice Leak and Hydrostatic Testing 

Operation Using the Consolidated Line 

Item Improvement Process 

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission. 

ACTION: Request for comment. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

the staff of the Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) has prepared a 

model licensee application relating to 

the modification of shutdown testing 

requirements in technical specifications 

(TS) for Boiling Water Reactors (BWR). 

The purpose of this model is to permit 

the NRC to efficiently process 

amendments that propose to modify 

LCO 3.10.1 that would allow control rod 

scram time testing to be performed 

concurrently with inservice leak and 

hydrostatic testing. Licensees of nuclear 

power reactors to which the model 

applies could then request amendments, 

confirming the applicability to their 

reactors. The NRC staff is requesting 

comment on the model application prior 

to announcing its availability for license 

amendment applications. A model

safety evaluation and no significant 

hazards determination regarding the 

proposed changes to LCO 3.10.1 have 

been previously posted in the Federal 

Register for comment on August 21, 

2006 (71 FR 48561). 

DATES: The comment period expires 

October 25, 2006. Comments received 

after this date will be considered if it is 

practical to do so, but the Commission 

is able to ensure consideration only for 

comments received on or before this 

date. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be 

submitted either electronically or via 

U.S. mail. Submit written comments to

deliver comments to: 11545 Rockville 

Pike, Rockville, Maryland, between 7:45 

a.m. and 4:15 p.m. on Federal workdays. 

Copies of comments received may be 

examined at the NRC’s Public Document 

Room, 11555 Rockville Pike (Room O–

1F21), Rockville, Maryland. Comments 

may be submitted by electronic mail to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Regulatory Issue Summary 2000–06, 

‘‘Consolidated Line Item Improvement 

Process for Adopting Standard 

Technical Specification Changes for 

Power Reactors,’’ was issued on March 

20, 2000. The consolidated line item 

improvement process (CLIIP) is 

intended to improve the efficiency of 

NRC licensing processes by processing 

proposed changes to the standard 

technical specifications (STS) in a 

manner that supports subsequent 

license amendment applications. The 

CLIIP includes an opportunity for the 

public to comment on a proposed 

change to the STS after a preliminary 

assessment by the NRC staff and a 

finding that the change will likely be 

offered for adoption by licensees. A 

model safety evaluation and no 

significant hazards determination 

regarding the proposed changes to LCO 

3.10.1 have been previously posted in 

the Federal Register for comment on 

August 21, 2006 (71 FR 48561). This 

notice solicits comment on a proposed 

model licensee application that would 

modify LCO 3.10.1 to allow control rod 

scram time testing to be performed 

concurrently with inservice leak and 

hydrostatic testing. 

Applicability 

Licensees opting to apply for this TS 

change are responsible for reviewing the 

staff’s evaluation, referencing the 

applicable technical justifications, and 

providing any necessary plant-specific 

information. Each amendment 

application made in response to the 

notice of availability will be processed 

and noticed in accordance with 

applicable rules and NRC procedures. 

Public Notices 

This notice requests comments from 

interested members of the public within 

30 days of the date of publication in the 

Federal Register. After evaluating the 

comments received as a result of this 

notice, the staff will either reconsider 

the proposed change or announce the 

availability of the change in a 

subsequent notice (perhaps with some 

changes to the safety evaluation or the 

proposed no significant hazards 

consideration determination as a result 

of public comments). If the staff 

announces the availability of the 

change, licensees wishing to adopt the 

change must submit an application in 

accordance with applicable rules and 

other regulatory requirements. For each 

application the staff will publish a 

notice of consideration of issuance of 

amendment to facility operating 

licenses, a proposed no significant 

hazards consideration determination, 

and a notice of opportunity for a 

hearing. The staff will also publish a 

notice of issuance of an amendment to 

an operating license to announce the 

modification of TS 3.10.1, Inservice 

Leak and Hydrostatic Testing, for each 

plant that receives the requested change.
