E7-20417. Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Inc.; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted the request of Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Inc. (the licensee) to withdraw its application dated January 31, 2005, for proposed amendments to Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-53 and DPR-69 for the Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, located in Calvert County, Maryland.

The proposed amendment would have revised the Renewed Facility Operating Licenses and Technical Specifications to increase the licensed core power by 1.37 percent to 2737 MegaWatt-thermal through implementation of certain feedwater flow measurement instrumentation.

The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on March 16, 2005 (70 FR 12906). However, by letter dated September 27, 2007, the licensee withdrew the proposed change.

For further details with respect to this action, see the application for amendment dated January 31, 2005, and the licensee's letter dated September 27, 2007, which withdrew the application for license amendment.
