[Docket Nos. 50-334 and 50-412]


Pennsylvania Power Company, Ohio Edison Company, The Cleveland 
Electric Illuminating Company, The Toledo Edison Company, Firstenergy 
Nuclear Operating Company, Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 
2; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendments to Facility 
Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (the licensee) to 
withdraw its January 18, 1999, application for proposed amendment to 
Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-66 and NPF-73, for the Beaver 
Valley Power Station, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (BVPS-1 and 2), located in 
Beaver County, Pennsylvania.
    The proposed amendments would have: (1) Deleted license condition 
2.C.(3) from the BVPS-1 operating license and deleted some references 
to two-loop operation from BVPS-1 Technical Specifications (TSs); (2) 
revised BVPS-1 and BVPS-2 TSs 2.2.1 and 3.3.2.1, associated Tables 2.2-
1 and 3.3-4, and associated Bases, to use consistent format and wording 
between units; (3) revised BVPS-1 and BVPS-2 TSs 2.2.1 and 3.3.2.1, 
associated Tables 2.2-1 and 3.3-4, and associated Bases, to include 
revised nominal trip setpoints and allowable values; (4) deleted or 
revised TSs to reflect the current configuration of Unit 1 plant 
hardware; and (5) made miscellaneous editorial changes to BVPS-1 and 
BVPS-2 TSs and associated Bases to define terms, revise formatting, 
modify titles, and add license numbers to pages.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on February 24, 
1999, (64 FR 9189). However, by letter dated July 29, 2000, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated January 18, 1999, and the licensee's 
letter dated July 29, 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

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 25 day of August 2000.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
