NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

Peco Energy Company
[Docket Nos. 50-277 and 50-278]


Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendments to Facility 
Operating Licenses

    The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of PECO Energy Company (the licensee) to withdraw its 
application dated August 6, 1999, for proposed amendments to Facility 
Operating License Nos. DPR-44 and DPR-56 for the Peach Bottom Atomic 
Power Station, Units 2 and 3, located in York County, Pennsylvania.
    The proposed exigent amendments would have temporarily revised 
Technical Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.7.2.2, for the 
normal heat sink. The revision would have allowed a temporary increase 
to the limit for the average water temperature of the normal heat sink 
from less than or equal to 90  deg.F to less than or equal to 92 
deg.F.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendments published in the Federal Register on August 13, 
1999 (64 FR 44243). However, by letter dated September, 23, 1999, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed amendment application.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendments dated August 6, 1999, and the licensee's 
letter dated September 23, 1999, which withdrew the application for 
license amendments. The above documents are available for public 
inspection at the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman 
Building, 2120 L Street, NW., Washington, DC, and at the local public 
document room located at the Government Publications Section, State 
Library of Pennsylvania, (Regional Depository) Walnut Street and 
Commonwealth Avenue, Harrisburg, PA.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of September 1999.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
