DCPP, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, are located in San Luis Obispo County, California, approximately 7 miles northwest of Avila Beach and 12 miles west-southwest of San Luis Obispo. On April 10, 2011, PG&E requested the deferral of a final decision on the license renewal application until seismic studies and a report addressing the results of those studies were completed (ADAMS Accession No. ML111010592). The NRC staff issued a safety evaluation report on June 2, 2011 (ADAMS Accession No. ML11153A103), [[Page 17689]] that documented the technical safety review of DCPP, Unit Nos. 1 and 2. Appendix A of the safety evaluation report listed PG&E's commitments for renewal of the operating licenses. The NRC staff resumed the review of the license renewal application after PG&E submitted the annual update for the application on December 22, 2014 (ADAMS Package Accession No. ML14364A259). Subsequently, on June 21, 2016, PG&E requested that the NRC staff suspend the license renewal review (ADAMS Accession No. ML16175A561). At that time, PG&E also requested approval from the California Public Utilities Commission not to proceed with license renewal. The NRC staff suspended the license renewal review in July 2016. On January 11, 2018, the California Public Utilities Commission approved PG&E's proposal to close DCPP, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, when its current licenses expire. By letter dated March 7, 2018, PG&E requested withdrawal of its license renewal application, including all associated correspondence and commitments, for DCPP, Unit Nos. 1 and 2 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18066A937). Pursuant to the requirements in part 2 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the Commission grants PG&E's request to withdraw DCPP, Unit Nos. 1 and 2, license renewal application.
