Amendments to Facility Operating Licenses
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has

granted the request of PECO Energy Company (the licensee) to withdraw
its May 5, 1997, application for proposed amendments to Facility
Operating License Nos. DPR-44 and DPR-56 for Peach Bottom Atomic Power
Station, Units 2 and 3, located in York County, Pennsylvania.
The proposed amendments would have involved an unreviewed safety

Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on June 25,
1997 (62 FR 34318). However, by letter dated December 11, 1998, the
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
For further details with respect to this action, see the
application for amendment dated May 5, 1997, as supplemented by letters
dated August 22 and September 26, 1997; and the licensee's letter dated
December 11, 1998, 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 at the local public document room
located at the Government Publications Section, State Library of
Pennsylvania, (REGIONAL DEPOSITORY) Education Building, Walnut Street
and Commonwealth Avenue, Box 1601, Harrisburg, PA, 17105.
