Dear Mr. Mazzarella:

SUBJECT:

QA PROGRAM REQUIREENTS In your letters dated February 19 and 23,1981, ing material acceptability for large fasteners per Section III of the you ask several questions regard-and Pressure Yessel Code [with particular attention to NCA-3 You also asked whether 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix 8 and ANSI N45 2 c o er substitute for NCA-3800 for nuclear applications.

R.

We interpret your question to ask whether Jos. Dyson & Sons satisfy the requirements of NCA-3800.use or substitute their ANSI

, Inc. can Our answer is that both the ANSI N45.2/ Appendix B and NCA-3800 requirements call for document that materials confonn to the requirements of the code specification identified in the procurement document., standard, and ever, goes further in that it specifies how such evidence is to be ob-NCA-3800, how-tained while Appendix 8 permits the licensee and its contractors to e tablish thef: own method.

Mr. Art Mazzarella MAR 19;39; is yes. However, other methods for non-Code items would also be acceptable as noted in our prior response. For Code items, the Authorized Nuclear Inspector would require adherence to NCA-3800.

Contact us if further information is required.

Sincerely.
