EPRI TR 3002025288 presents an enhanced methodology for categorizing pressure boundary components in support of 10 CFR 50.69 applications.

The NRC sta is ready to issue the Safety Evaluation for EPRI Report 3002025288 for proprietary review.

Before we issue the safety evaluation for proprietary review, the NRC sta wanted to give EPRI a chance to review the limitations and conditions and request a public meeting to discuss.

All parties are working to a tight schedule, and the public meeting has already been scheduled for June 12, 2025, at 3:00 pm and noticed on June 4, 2025 in ADAMS Accession No. ML25155B872). The limitations and conditions are provided in Enclosure 1 to this email and will be made public in order to support a public meeting.

Please review the limitations and conditions and let the NRC sta know, no later than close of business on June 11, 2025, whether EPRI would like to hold the public meeting to discuss Sincerely, Lois M. James, Senior Project Manger Division of New and Renewed Licenses (DNRL)
