withdraw its August 4, 1999,

application for proposed amendment to

Facility Operating License No. NPF–38

for the Waterford Steam Electric Station,

The proposed change would have

primarily modified Technical

Specification (TS) 3.5.2 to extend the

allowed outage time to seven days for

one high pressure safety injection train

inoperable and TS 3.5.3 to change the

end-state to HOT SHUTDOWN with at

least one OPERABLE shutdown cooling

train in operation.

The Commission had previously

issued a Notice of Consideration of

Issuance of Amendment published in

the Federal Register on January 26,

2000 (65 FR 4277). However, by letter

dated April 20, 2000, the licensee
