NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
[Docket No. 50-306]
Northern States Power Company; Notice of Withdrawal of
Application for Amendment to Facility Operating License
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted
the request of Northern States Power Company (the licensee) to withdraw
its February 10, 1998, application for proposed amendment to Facility
Operating License No. DPR-60 for the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating
Plant, Unit 2, located in Goodhue County, Minnesota.
The proposed amendment requested a limited duration change to the
Prairie Island Technical Specifications that would allow a reduction in
the boron concentration required for Mode 6.
The Commission had previously published notices in the Minneapolis
Star Tribune on February 16, 1998, and in the Red Wing Republican Eagle
and Minneapolis Star Tribune on February 17, 1998, requesting comments
on the NRC staff's proposed determination that the proposed amendment
involved no significant hazards considerations. However, by letter
dated March 31, 1998, the licensee withdrew the proposed change.
