Thought this might be of interest. Possibly a heads up for anyone working with the VA. Issued Dec 15, 2021
"REQUIREMENTS: New Construction, NRM, or any repair or replacement project must not use cast iron fittings and components or malleable fittings anywhere in the high-pressure and medium pressure steam system (15psi or above). All new construction must use cast steel or forged steel fittings only."
