NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-346]


Firstenergy Nuclear Operating Company And Firstenergy Nuclear 
Generation Corp.; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for Amendment to 
Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC, the Commission) has 
granted the request of FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company and 
FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation Corp. (the licensee) to withdraw its 
January 11, 2005, application for proposed amendment to Facility 
Operating License No. NPF-3 for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, 
Unit 1, located in Ottawa County.
    The proposed amendment would have revised the updated safety 
analysis report (USAR) by modifying the design requirements for 
protection from tornado missiles. Specifically, the proposed amendment 
would have allowed certain structures, systems, and components that are 
currently provided with physical protection from tornado-induced 
missiles to be evaluated for acceptability based on the Electric Power 
Research Institute ``Tornado Missile Risk Evaluation Methodology'' 
(TORMIS).
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on February 15, 
2005 (70 FR 7766). However, by letter dated January 26, 2007, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated January 11, 2005, and the licensee's 
letter dated January 26, 2007, 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, Maryland. Publicly available records will be accessible 
electronically from the Agencywide Documents Access and Management 
Systems (ADAMS) Public Electronic Reading Room on the internet at the

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 30th day of January 2007.

    For The Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Project Manager, Plant Licensing Branch III-2, Division of Operating
