SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The NRC has granted the request of Holtec Decommissioning International, LLC and Holtec Palisades, LLC (hereafter collectively referred to as the licensee), to withdraw its September 14, 2022, application (ADAMS Accession No. ML22257A097) for proposed amendment to the Renewed Facility Operating License (RFOL) No. DPR-20 for the Palisades Nuclear Plant (Palisades), located in Covert Township, Van Buren County, Michigan.
The proposed license amendment would have revised the Palisades RFOL to remove the Cyber Security Plan (CSP) requirements contained in License Condition 2.E. This change was requested to support the decommissioning of Palisades. The license amendment proposed to revise the Palisades RFOL to remove the CSP requirements contained in License Condition 2.E. once Palisades spent fuel underwent a sufficient cooling period that would mitigate the risk of heat-up to clad ignition temperature within 10 hours.
The Commission had previously issued a proposed finding that the amendment involves no significant hazards consideration, which was published in the Federal Register on November 29, 2022 (87 FR 73339), and there were no public comments on that finding or hearing requests with respect to the action. However, by letter dated December 12, 2023 (ADAMS Accession No. ML23346A083), the licensee withdrew the proposed amendment.
Dated: January 11, 2024.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Acting Chief, Reactor Decommissioning Branch, Division of Decommissioning, Uranium Recovery and Waste Programs, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards.
