Louise,

The URL that will be used is as follows: http://go.asme.org/NRC-ASME This is slightly different than the one you have noted below. We are currently in the process of setting this URL up and this will redirect, when set up, to the license and site set up to make the files available for download during the Public Comment Period of the proposed rulemaking.

Please confirm that the list of Code Cases required are those that we received I your October 12, 2022 e-mail and shown in the attached.

Dear Kate,

We are in the process of finalizing the proposed code case rule and we expect to publish the proposed rule the week of 2/20/23. We will confirm the exact date with ASME as we get closer to the publication date.

Could you please confirm the URL site for public access to the ASME Code Cases is at http://go.asme.org/NRC-ASME-CC. We will need to include this information in the Federal Register Notice when we send the propose rule to the Office of the Federal Register for publication.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Bruce Lin at Bruce.Lin@nrc.gov or 301-415-2446 or Dennis Andrukat at Dennis.Andrukat@nrc.gov or 301-415-3561.

Best regards,

Louise,

Acknowledging receipt of this request. ASME is happy to support the upcoming rulemaking process and will provide public access to the attached Nuclear Components Code Cases in Sections III and XI of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel (BPV) Code and Code Cases in the Operation and Maintenance (OM) Code during the public comment period. We will work with the NRC staff noted below on the details and location of the posting.

Best regards,

Request for Public Access to ASME Code Cases During Public Comment Period

WARNING: This Message Came From Outside of ASME. Do not click on links or attachments unless you know the content to be safe.

Ms. Kate Hyam Director of Nuclear Codes and Standards

The purpose of this email is to request that the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) provide public access for a short time to the attached Nuclear Components Code Cases in Sections III and XI of the Boiler and Pressure Vessel (BPV) Code and Code Cases in the Operation and Maintenance (OM) Code during the public comment period.

In the near future, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) would propose to approve these Code Cases for use in a rulemaking amending § 50.55a of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Codes and standards. The NRCs approval of these Code Cases would be accomplished by a rulemaking incorporating by reference the NRCs Draft Regulatory Guide (DG)-1405, DG-1406, and DG-1407 (corresponding, respectively, to Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.84, Revision 40, RG 1.147, Revision 21, and RG 1.192, Revision 5), which would identify these Code Cases as newly approved for use. We are requesting that ASME provide members of the general public with read-only access to these Code Cases during the comment period for the proposed rule.

The planned target date for publication of the proposed code case rule is 3/15/23 for a 60 day public comment period (3/15/23-5/15/23). Please note the schedule is subject to change. No later than 30 calendar days before the planned publication date, NRC staff will contact you with an update on the schedule and to make final arrangements.

We look forward to your response to this request. If you have any questions or concerns,

please contact Bruce Lin at Bruce.Lin@nrc.gov or 301-415-2446 or Dennis Andrukat at Dennis.Andrukat@nrc.gov or 301-415-3561.

Best regards,

Louise Lund
