Subject: Re: IN 2007-26 Alex, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will take your comment under consideration.

After my staff has had a chance to look at your comment, we may propose to add/keep this as

part of the issues management protocol list (We are planning an issues management public

meeting for near the end of January 2008).

Alex, There following statement appears on page 2, 4th paragraph: "ASTM E 84 is the standard test method required by NRC regulations and should be in

the licensing basis, unless..." The problem with this statement is

twofold.

1. ASTM E 84 is not required by NRC regulations. I have not been able

to find the citation.

2. Furthermore, this standard was originally intended for testing

ceiling and wall products - not flooring materials.

What is most troubling is that we submitted a paper 6/28/2004 on the

combustibility of epoxy coatings. It appears from the language in this

IN that our input was ignored. I can live with that but our paper was

developed with input from industry fire protection practitioners who I

have found to be correct when it comes to standards and other technical

point. I have attached a copy of that paper.

I bring this to your attention because the IN is factually incorrect.

Thank you for considering this.

Alex
