Letter, T. J. Jordan to NRC Document Control Desk, "Revised Request for Approval of an Alternative Approach for Containment Tendon Surveillances (RR-ENG-37)," dated August 20, 2002 (NOC-AE-02001364)

The South Texas Project has requested Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval of an alternative to the requirements of ASME Section Xl for examination of containment concrete and unbonded post-tensioning systems (referenced above). However, the South Texas Project is no longer pursuing approval of the proposed change. Therefore, the South Texas Project withdraws RR-ENG-37 from further consideration.

If there are any questions, please contact either Mr. P. L. Walker at (361) 972-8392 or me at (361) 972-7136.
