NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-382; NRC-2011-0030]


Entergy Operations, Inc.; Notice of Withdrawal of Application for 
Amendment to Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (the Commission or NRC) has 
granted the request of Entergy Operations Inc. (the licensee) to 
withdraw its application dated February 22, 2010, for a proposed 
amendment to Facility Operating License No. NPF-38 for the Waterford 
Steam Electric Station, Unit 3, located in St. Charles Parish, 
Louisiana.
    In view of the originally planned steam generator (SG) replacement 
during the spring 2011 refueling outage (RFO), the proposed changes 
would have modified the facility technical specifications (TSs) 
pertaining to TS 6.5.9, ``Steam Generator (SG) Program,'' and TS 
6.9.1.5, ``Steam Generator Tube Inspection Report,'' to eliminate the 
currently allowed SG tube alternate repair criteria and to modify the 
SG tube inservice inspection frequency. However, the licensee has 
decided to postpone the SG replacement to the fall 2012 RFO and by 
letter dated January 19, 2011, withdrew the proposed change.
    The Commission had previously issued a Notice of Consideration of 
Issuance of Amendment published in the Federal Register on April 20, 
2010 (75 FR 20633).
    For further details with respect to this action, see the 
application for amendment dated February 22, 2010, and the licensee's 
letter dated January 19, 2011, which withdrew the application for 
license amendment (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System 
(ADAMS) Accession Nos. ML100550137 and ML110210111, respectively). 
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 
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

    For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
