NDE Qualification requirements compliance

(OP)
Can anyone explain why the NRC and ASME does not require vendors of nuclear fuel materials in the US to comply with the requirements of ASNT-TC-1a, as specified in either the old N45.2 series requirements or the NQA-1, 1994? Those are the requirements under which basically every reactor in the country was licensed to operate. And the old version of N45.2 and NQA-1 require compliance with the 1980 version of TC-1a with it's 3 year certification period for the Level III. I know that under Section XI a request was made to upgrade to the 1988 version and it's 5 year period but as I understand it the NRC has never been requested and has not approved a switch to the 5 year for the manufactures.
