[Docket Nos. 50-387 and 50-388; NRC-2009-0152]


PPL Susquehanna, LLC; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for 
Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of PPL Susquehanna, LLC, (the licensee) to withdraw its 
March 28, 2008, application for proposed amendment to Facility 
Operating License Nos. NPF-14 and NPF-22 for the Susquehanna Steam 
Electric Station, Units 1 and 2, located in Luzerne County, 
Pennsylvania.
    The proposed change would have modified PPL Susquehanna, LLC, Units 
1 and 2 (PPL) Technical Specifications (TSs) TS 3.6.4.1 ``Secondary 
Containment,'' and TS 3.6.4.3 ``Standby Gas Treatment System,'' as 
follows:
    (1) To add a new Required Action option for TS 3.6.4.1 Condition A, 
to allow additional time to restore secondary containment to OPERABLE 
when the inoperability is not caused by a loss of secondary containment 
integrity,
    (2) To add a new Actions note TS 3.6.4.1, to allow opening of 
secondary containment heating ventilation and air conditioning duct 
access doors and opening of a secondary containment equipment ingress/
egress door (102 door) under administrative controls provided no 
movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the secondary containment, 
CORE ALTERATIONS, or operations with a potential for draining the 
reactor vessel (OPDRVs) are in progress,
    (3) To modify the existing note to Surveillance Requirement (SR) 
3.6.4.1.3 and add a second note to this same SR, to expand upon the 
existing SR exception note by adding other types of door access 
openings that occur for entry and exit of people or equipment, and
    (4) The administrative change to remove a one-time allowance in TS 
3.6.4.1 and TS 3.6.4.3 ``Standby Gas Treatment System [SGTS],'' that 
extended the allowable Completion Time for Secondary Containment 
inoperable and two SGTS subsystems inoperable in MODE 1, 2, or 3. This 
allowance was previously incorporated into both Unit 1 and Unit 2 TSs 
to facilitate Reactor Recirculating Fan Damper Motor work.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on May 6, 2008, 
(73 FR 25044). However, by letter dated March 27, 2009, the licensee 
withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated March 28, 2008, and the licensee's 
letter dated March 27, 2009, which withdrew the application for license 
amendment. Documents may be examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the 
NRC's Public Document Room (PDR), located at One White Flint North, 
Public File Area O1 F21, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville,
