RENAISSANCE DRIVERS RENAISSANCE DRIVERS
• Fossil Fuel (coal, gas, oil)– Rising cost, unreliable supply, ultimate depletion
• Environmental concerns– CO2 and NOx emissions, air particulates > global warming
• Cost competitive – Busbar Costs
• Nuclear = $38 MWhr• Coal = $45 MWhr
• Carbon tax• Balanced mix of resources

RENAISSANCE DRIVERS (cont’d)RENAISSANCE DRIVERS (cont’d)
• Financial incentives – State and local
• Grand Gulf, Calvert Cliffs, Vogtle, Bellefonte• Federal support
– Energy Policy Act of 2005• Cost overrun insurance• Tax credits for power generation
• Public Support *• 74% > role in energy future• 57% > new reactor at existing site• 54% > definitely build

LEADING CANDIDATESLEADING CANDIDATES
• China – 5x by 2020, ~8 GWe to 40 GWe (1)(2)
• India – 7x by 2020, ~3 GWe to 20 GWe (3) • Europe – grow 0.5% / yr through 2030 (4)
• US – petroleum imports 13.1 to 18.3 Mbbl/d*
(1) GWe = GigaWatts electric(2) www.world-nuclear.org(3) www.iht.com(4) www.eia.doe.gov* Mbb/d = Million Barrels / day

WHY ASME ACCREDITATION?WHY ASME ACCREDITATION?
• 10CFR50.55.A > ASME Section III• ASME Certificate Holder > Accredited
– Accreditation– Formal process > Survey
• Certificates define authorized scope of work– Fabrications, installation, systems, parts, components,
class, materials, etc
• Qualified through a triennial Survey process

CERTIFICATESCERTIFICATES
• Certificates of Authorization– N Responsible for component structural integrity
– N3 Containment/transport packaging – Spent Fuel– NA Shop assembly and field fabrication– NPT Parts / Appurtenances w & w/o design
responsibility– NV Pressure Relief Valves
• Certificate of Accreditation– QSC Material organizations– NS Component Supports – w/ or w/o design
responsibility

ASME SURVEY REQUIREMENTSASME SURVEY REQUIREMENTS
• QA Program– NCA-4000 (3800 for Material Organizations)– NQA-1– ASME Pre-Survey Checklist
• vs. 10CFR50 Appendix B program • Program preparation and implementation application
– Fully demonstrated during Survey– Hardware and software (documentation)
• Authorized Inspection Agency

AUTHORIZED INSPECTION AGENCYAUTHORIZED INSPECTION AGENCY
• Role and responsibility– Key element in a Conformity Assessment process– Extensive knowledge of the accreditation process
• Assistance in determining Certificates• Guidance and direction in preparing for ASME Survey
– QA program requirements– Program implementation– Scheduling– Pre-Survey audit
– Third party inspection and verification• Co-signs Manufacturer’s Code Data Report
