SUBJECT:
LETTER NOMINATING NRC STAFF TO THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS SUBGROUP ON RELIABILITY AND INTEGRITY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
Dear Mr. Swayne,
I would like to nominate Ms. Margaret Audrain as the authorized U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) representative on the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME),
Subgroup on Reliability and Integrity Management (RIM) Program (Section XI, Division 2), the ASME/Japan society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME) Joint Working Group on RIM Processes and System Based Code, and the Working Group on Monitoring and Nondestructive Examination (MANDE). Ms. Audrain is a Materials Engineer in the NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Division of Advanced Reactors and Non-Power Production and Utilization Facilities. She is responsible for NRC review of RIM program related topics in support of advanced reactor applications. Ms. Audrain is replacing Mr. Timothy Lupold, who has retired from the NRC.
In accordance with the Office of Management and Budget Circular No. A-119, "Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities," dated January 27, 2016, the participation on a committee of an NRC-authorized representative does not connote agency agreement with, or endorsement of, decisions reached by the committee, or of standards approved and published as a result of the committees efforts. Agency representatives participating on consensus standards developing groups will, to the extent possible, ascertain the views of the agency on matters of interest and will express views that are consistent with established agency views.
However, the NRCs endorsement of these standards, if desired by the NRC, would be part of a separate activity such as incorporation by reference into rulemaking or endorsement in an NRC regulatory guide.
Correspondence should be addressed to:
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTN: Ms. Margaret Audrain Washington, D.C. 20555 Telephone: (301) 415-2133 E-mail: Meg.Audrain@nrc.gov
Thank you very much for providing the NRC with the opportunity to participate in the work of your committee.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Louise Lund, NRC Standards Executive Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research cc:
