NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[NRC–2010–0319; Docket No. 50–400] 

Carolina Power & 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 & Light Company (the licensee) 

to withdraw its application dated 

September 29, 2008, as supplemented 

by letters dated January 16, 2009, 

August 12, 2009, January 18, 2010, and 

August 16, 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 Technical Specification 

(TS) Sections 5.6.1.3.a and 5.6.1.3.b to 

incorporate the results of a new 

criticality analysis. Specifically the TSs 

would be revised to add new 

requirements for the Boiling-Water 

Reactor (BWR) spent fuel storage racks 

containing Boraflex in Spent Fuel Pools 

A and B. The requirements for the BWR 

spent fuel racks currently contained in 

TS 5.6.1.3 would be revised to specify 

applicability to the spent fuel storage 

racks containing Boral in Spent Fuel 

Pool B. 

The Commission had previously 

issued a Notice of Consideration of 

Issuance of Amendment published in 

the Federal Register on February 24, 

2009 (74 FR 8283). However, by letter 

dated September 28, 2010, the licensee 

withdrew the proposed change. 

For further details with respect to this 

action, see the application for 

amendment dated September 29, 2008 

(Agencywide Documents Access and 

Management System (ADAMS) 

Accession No. ML082800410), as 

supplemented by letters dated January 

16, 2009, (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML090230373), August 12, 2009 

(ADAMS Accession No. ML092310549), 

January 18, 2010 (ADAMS Accession 

No. ML100250850), and August 16, 

2010 (ADAMS Accession No. 

ML102370768), and the licensee’s letter 

dated September 28, 2010, which 

withdrew the application for license 

amendment.
