July 7, 1993 Docket Nos.52-001 and 52-004 Mr. Patrick W. Marriott, Manager i
Licensing & Consulting Services GE Nuclear Energy 175 Curtner Avenue San Jose, California 95125
Dear Mr. Marriott:
SUBJECT:
NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION (NRC) METRICATION POLICY The Commission recently voted to exempt Asea Brown Boveri-Combustion Engineering's (ABB-CE) System 80+ design certification from the NRC's policy on metrication.
They also requested that the NRC staff identify other vendors that may wish to be granted similar exemptions.
The exemption relieves ABB-CE of any responsibility for performing conversions to metric units or providing dual units in any documents that are part of the design certification rule.
It also relieves them of responsibility for verifying the accuracy of any conversions done by the NRC staff in the final safety evaluation report.
If GE Nuclear Energy would also like to be relieved of the responsibility for performing unit conversions or for providing dual units in any documents that are part of the design certification rule, you should make such a request in a letter addressed to me.
If your documents will be in metric, then the documents must conform with the International System of Units (SI).
Sincerely, (Original signed by J. N. Wilson for) i Chester Poslusny, Project Manager Standardization Project Directorate Associate Directorate for Advanced Reactors and License Renewal Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation cc:
