To The Orburator, I don't think you were totally accurate with your response. The ASME boiler & Pressure vessel code does not actually REQUIRE an R stamp for repairs. The ASME BPV Code is for new construction, not in service or repair work (with a small few exceptions, i.e. Section XII). It is...

Send a letter , again, to ASME, specifically addressing the allegations. Address it to the Director of Conformity Assessment. Also copy the National Board. Address that one to the Executive Director. I will be shocked if they do not respond to you. It is their job to look into ALL allegations.

I am reviewing a P&ID for heat recovery boiler, and there is a term used I am not familiar with. Tundish. Can any help with this term?

After reading this chain of posts I can see why you were (are) frustrated. The short answer to your question is that NBEP is outside the scope of NJ boiler law. So you do (or did) not need to have the repair performed to the NBIC. I woill add another bit of info for you. NJ has their own R...
