SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRC has granted the request of PG&E to 
withdraw its application dated May 12, 2016 (ADAMS Accession No. 
ML16146A100), for the proposed amendments to Facility Operating License 
Nos. DPR-80 and DPR-82 for DCPP, Units 1 and 2, located in San Luis 
Obispo County, California.
    The proposed amendments would have modified DCPP, Units 1 and 2, TS 
5.5.16, ``Containment Leakage Rate Testing Program,'' to replace the 
reference to Regulatory Guide 1.163, ``Performance-Based Containment 
Leak-Test Program,'' September 1995 (ADAMS Accession No. ML003740058), 
and 10 CFR part 50, Appendix J, Option B, ``Performance-Based 
Requirements,'' with a reference to NEI 94-01, Revision 2-A, ``Industry 
Guideline for Implementing Performance-Based Option of 10 CFR part 50, 
Appendix J,'' October 2008 (ADAMS Accession No. ML100620847). In 
addition, the proposed amendments would have modified TS 5.5.16 to 
remove an exception under paragraph 5.16.a.3 for a one-time 15-year 
Type A test interval.
    The Commission has previously issued a proposed finding that the 
amendment involves no significant hazards determination published in 
the Federal Register on August 2, 2016 (81 FR 50733). However, by 
letter dated March 30, 2017 (ADAMS Accession No. ML17089A688), PG&E 
requested to withdraw the proposed amendment.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of April 2017.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Senior Project Manager, Plant Licensing Branch IV, Division of 
Operating Reactor Licensing, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
