NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-22]
Westinghouse Electric Corporation (CBS Corporation); Westinghouse
Test Reactor; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Consent to
Transfer Facility License and Conforming Amendment
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has
permitted the withdrawal of the August 18, 1997 application for consent
to transfer Facility License No. TR-2 for the Westinghouse Test
Reactor, located at the Westinghouse Waltz Mill site in Westmoreland
County, Pennsylvania, and application for a conforming license
amendment; submitted by Westinghouse Electric Corporation (CBS
Corporation).
The proposed action would have approved the transfer of License No.
TR-2 from the Westinghouse Electric Corporation to a new corporation
that would have taken the name Westinghouse Electric Corporation, but
would not have included in its lines of business certain media
operations. The proposed action would have also amended the license to
reflect the proposed transfer of the license.
The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of
Approval of Transfer of License and Issuance of a Conforming Amendment
to Facility License, Proposed No Significant Hazards Consideration
Determination, and Opportunity for Hearing published in the Federal
Register on September 26, 1997 (62 FR 50628). An Environmental
Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact was published in the
Federal Register on October 1, 1997 (62 FR 51493). However, by letter
dated December 18, 1997, the licensee withdrew the August 18, 1997
application.
The licensee withdrew the application because its plan to
reorganize and create a new corporation changed.
For further details with respect to this action, see the
application for amendment dated August 18, 1997, and the letter from
licensee dated December 18, 1997, which withdrew the application. The
above documents are available for public inspection at the Commission's
Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L Street, NW.,
Washington, DC.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 20th day of January 1998.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Director, Non-Power Reactors and Decommissioning Project Directorate,
