Draft RAI for MUR Flex Hose RR Attachments: Draft RAI CN-15-001.docx

Larry, The NRC staffs draft RAI for the subject relief request is attached to this e-mail. The draft RAI is not an official NRC staff request and is being provided to you to facilitate a subsequent conference call to determine: 1) If the questions clearly convey the NRC staff information needs; 2) Whether the regulatory basis for the questions is understood; 3) Whether the information is already available in existing, docketed, correspondence; and 4) To determine an appropriate response time-frame. After youve had a chance to review the draft information request, please contact me to schedule the conference call.

Also, I know its short notice, but do you think there would be any chance of having the draft RAI call between now and next Tuesday? The reviewer is going be out of the office for a while after next Tuesday.
