20555 ULNRC-2993 Gentlemen:
DOCKET NUMBER 50-483 CALLAWAY PLANT ASE CODE CASE N-416-1 The American Society of Mechanical Engineers has submitted Code Case N-416-1 to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for review and approval.
Code Case N-416-1 is entitled " Alternative Pressure Test Requirement for Welded Repairs or Installation of Replacement Items by Welding."
Approval is hereby requested for use of the provisions of Code Case N-416-1 for ASME Class.3 systems.
Approval for use on ASME Class 1 and Class 2 systems is excluded from this request, and is addressed on a separate letter (ULNRC 2992).
Approval is requested by October, 1994, to permit utilization during Callaway's next refueling outage (Spring 1995).
The need for timely approval is a result of'the upcoming implemontation of numerous ASME Section XI repair and replacem activities at the e
Callaway Plant and the extensive
<mt and scheduling impacts associated with hydrostatic osting.
Cost savings resulting from elimination of all Class 1, 2,
and 3 repair / replacement hydrostatic tests a2o estimated at approximately $225,000.00.
Union Electric considers the alternative testing requirements proposed in the Code Case to constitute a reasonable, safe alternative to the existing hydrostatic testing requirements, and requests timely approval.
Ver truly yours,
