Docket No. 50-443-LT



CLI-99-16
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

The Montaup Electric Company ("Montaup") seeks to transfer its ownership interest in Seabrook Station, Unit 1, to the Little Bay Power Corporation ("Little Bay"). On Montaup's behalf, the North Atlantic Energy Service Corporation (Seabrook's operator), submitted the transfer application to the Commission for approval. Such approval is required pursuant to Section 184 of the Atomic Energy Act, 42 U.S.C. ยง 2234. Two co-owners -- New England Power Company ("NEP") and United Illuminating Company ("United")-- filed intervention petitions opposing the transfer application. In CLI-99-6, 49 NRC ___ (March 5, 1999), we granted NEP's petition and denied United's petition.

The applicants and NEP have settled their differences and, on April 15th, NEP filed a notice of withdrawal. Under Commission case law, the withdrawal of all intervenors brings a licensing proceeding to a close. Florida Power and Light Co. (Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 3 and 4), CLI-91-13, 34 NRC 185, 188 n.1 (1991); Public Serv. Co. of Colo. (Fort St. Vrain Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation), [no CLI number], 34 NRC 190 (1990). As the sole intervenor has withdrawn, this proceeding is terminated.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

For the Commission
