NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-354]


Public Service Electric & Gas 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 Public Service Electric and Gas Company (the licensee) 
to withdraw its application dated August 26, 1997, as supplemented 
April 24, 1998, and September 24, 1998, for proposed amendment to 
Facility Operating License No. NPF-57 for the Hope Creek Generating 
Station, located in Salem County, New Jersey.
    The proposed amendment would have revised Technical Specification 
(TS) 4.6.5.3.1.b, for the Filtration, Recirculation and Ventilation 
System (FRVS) Ventilation Subsystem, and TS 4.6.5.3.2.b for the FRVS 
Recirculation Subsystem. The revisions would have allowed the FRVS 
heaters to be ``operating (automatic heater modulation to maintain 
relative humidity)'' instead of ``on'' when performing the 10-hour 
monthly surveillance test.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on October 8, 
1997 (62 FR 52587). However, by letter dated December 21, 1998, the 
licensee withdrew the proposed change.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated August 26, 1997, as supplemented April 
24, 1998, and September 24, 1998, and the licensee's letter dated 
December 21, 1998, which withdrew the application for license 
amendment. The above documents are available for public inspection at 
the Commission's Public Document Room, the Gelman Building, 2120 L 
Street, NW., Washington, DC, and at the local public document room 
located at the Pennsville Public Library, 190 S. Broadway, Pennsville, 
NJ, 08070.

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 24th day of December 1998.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Richard B. Ennis,
Project Manager, Project Directorate I-2, Division of Reactor 
Projects--I/II, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
