SCOPE
1.1 This guide is intended to assist the maintenance engineer in the preparation of a specification or work instruction for re-coating items that are presently coated with what is known within the nuclear power industry as an "unqualified coating."
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This guide is intended to assist the maintenance engineer in the preparation of a specification or work instruction for re-coating items that are presently coated with what is known within the nuclear power industry as an “unqualified coating.”
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D33 on Protective Coating and Lining Work for Power Generation Facilities, this guide was withdrawn in September 2008 in accordance with section 10.5.3.1 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.
