NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50-266 and 50-301]


Wisconsin Electric Power Company; Notice of Withdrawal of 
Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of Wisconsin Electric Power Company (the licensee) to 
withdraw its February 28, 1998, application for amendments to Facility 
Operating License Nos. DPR-24 and DPR-27 for the Point Beach Nuclear 
Plants, Units 1 and 2, respectively, located in Two Rivers, Wisconsin.
    The proposed amendments would have modified the following six 
Technical Specification sections: (1) 15.3.6, ``Containment System,'' 
bases; (2) 15.3.12, ``Control Room Emergency Filtration,'' including 
bases; (3) 15.4.4, ``Containment Tests,'' bases; (4) 15.4.11 ``Control 
Room Emergency Filtration,'' including bases; (5) 15.6.8, ``Plant 
Operating Procedures;'' and (6) 15.6.12, ``Containment Leakage Rate 
Testing Program.''
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on July 15, 
1998 (63 FR 38207). However, by letter dated August 17, 2000, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed changes.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendments dated February 26, 1998, as supplemented 
July 12, 1999, and the licensee's letter dated August 17, 2000, which 
withdrew the application for license amendment. 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 
accessible electronically through the ADAMS Public Electronic Reading 
Room link at the NRC Web site (http://www.nrc.gov).

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
