NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket Nos. 50-254 and 50-265]


Exelon Generation Company, Inc. and MidAmerican Energy Company, 
Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2; Notice of Withdrawal 
of Environmental Assessment

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission) has granted 
the request of MidAmerican Energy Company (the licensee) to withdraw 
its November 21, 2003, application for exemption for the Quad Cities 
Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, located in Rock Island County, 
Illinois.
    The proposed exemption would have allowed the licensee to delay 
meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 50.75(h)(2) past the effective date 
of December 24, 2003.
    The Commission had previously issued an Environmental Assessment 
and Finding of No Significant Impact published in the Federal Register 
on December 19, 2003 (68 FR 70843), and December 22, 2003 (68 FR 
71173), for the proposed exemption as required by 10 CFR 51.21. 
However, by letter dated December 18, 2003, the licensee withdrew the 
proposed change. Therefore, the Commission is withdrawing its 
previously issued Environmental Assessment and Finding of No 
Significant Impact.
    For further details with respect to this action, see the request 
for exemption dated November 21, 2003, and the licensee's letter dated 
December 18, 2003, which withdrew the request for exemption. Documents 
may be examined, and/or copied for a fee, at the Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission's (NRC) Public Document Room (PDR), located at One White 
Flint North, 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 NRC Web site, http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams/html. Persons who do not have access to

    Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 20th day of July 2004.

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
