E9-28655. Florida Power & Light; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted the request of Florida Power & Light (the licensee) to withdraw its September 1, 2009, application for proposed amendment to Facility Operating License No. DPR-31 for the Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Unit No. 3, located in Florida City, Florida.

The proposed amendment would have revised Licenses DPR-31 and DPR-41 of the dates specified in License Amendments 234 and 229 for the implementation of the Boraflex Remedy in the Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 spent fuel pools.

The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on September 15, 2009 (74 FR 47278). However, by letter dated November 9, 2009, the licensee withdrew the proposed change for Unit 3. The requested amendment for Unit 4 was issued on November 13, 2009. The licensee will submit a separate application to update the licensing basis for the Unit 3 spent fuel pool.

For further details with respect to this action, see the application for amendment dated September 1, 2009, and the licensee's letter dated November 9, 2009, which withdrew the application for license amendment for Unit 3.
