By letter dated June 14,

Cook Nuclear Plants, Unit Nos.
1 and 2, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3).
if Based on the information submitted, the staff concludes that IMPCo's proposed alternative to use the ASME/ANSI OM Code-1995, Subsection ISTD, in lieu of ASME B&PV Code,Section XI, requirements provides an acceptable level of quality and safety.
However, in considering that the NRC has not yet generically approved the use of the ASHEtIANSI OM Code-1995, the staff concludes that an interim approval of the proposed alternative can be authorized, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3)(i),
pending NRC review and approval of ASME/ANSI OM Code-1995 on a generic basis.
At such time the interim nature of the staff's approval will cease.
The staff's evaluation and conclusions are contained in the enclosed safety evaluation.
