The Enclosure describesthe plan for completing this ITAAC. Southern Nuclear Operating Company will, at a later date, provide additional notifications for ITAAC that have not been completed 225-days prior to initial fuel load.

This notification is informed bythe guidance described in NEI 08-01, Industry Guideline forthe ITAAC Closure Process Under 10 CFR Part 52, which was endorsed by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.215. In accordance with NEI 08-01, this notification includes ITAAC for which required inspections, tests, oranalyses have not been performed or have been only partially completed. All ITAAC will be fully completedand all Section 52.99(c)(1) ITAAC Closure Notifications will be submitted to NRC to support the Commission finding that all acceptance criteria are met prior to plant operation, as required by 10 CFR 52.103(g).

This letter contains no new NRC regulatory commitments.

If there are any questions, please contact Tom Petrak at 706-848-1575.

Respectfully submitted.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0270 Enclosure Page 2 of 6 ITAAC Statement Design Commitment:

2. The seismic Category Iequipment identified inTable 2.3.5-1 can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

Insoections. Tests. Analyses:

i) Inspection will be performed to verify thcit the seismic Category Iequipment identified in Table 2.3.5-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.

ii) Type tests, analyses, ora combination of type tests andanalyses of seismic Category I equipment will be performed.

iii) Inspection will be performed for the existence of a report verifying thattheas-built equipment including anchorage isseismically bounded bythe tested oranalyzed conditions.

Acceptance Criteria:

i) The seismic Category Iequipment identified in Table 2.3.5-1 islocated on the Nuclear Island.

ii) Areport exists and concludes that the seismic Category Iequipment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

iii) Areport exists and concludes that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismically bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

ITAAC Completion Description This ITAAC requires thatinspections, tests, andanalyses be performed anddocumented to ensure the Mechanical Handling System(MHS) equipment identified as seismic Category Iin the Combined License (COL) Appendix C, Table 2.3.5-1 (the Table) is designed and constructed in accordance with applicable requirements.

iiThe seismic Cateoorv Ieouioment identified inTable 2.3.5-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.

Toassure thatseismic Category Iequipment canwithstand seismic design basisloads without loss of safety function, all the equipment in theTable isdesigned tobe located on theseismic Category INuclear Island. In accordance with Equipment Qualification (EG) Walkdown ITAAC Guideline (Reference 1), an inspection isconducted of the MHS to confirm thesatisfactory installation of the seismically qualified equipment. The inspection includes verification of equipment make/model/serial number andverification of equipment location (Building, Elevation, Room). The EG As-Built Reconciliation Reports (EQRR) (Reference 2) identified in Attachment Adocumentthe results ofthe inspection and concludethat the seismic Category I equipmentis locatedon the Nuclear Island.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0270 Enclosure Page 3 of 6 ID A report exists and concludes that the seismic Cateoorv I eouioment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

Seismic Category Iequipmentcomponents inthe Table requiretype tests and/or analyses be performed to verify thatthe equipment can withstand seismic design basis loadswithout lossof safety function.

The Containment Polar Crane and Cask Handling Crane were modeled and qualified using structural stress analyses ofdynamic and gravity loadsto demonstratestructural integrity to support the safety function, which is prevention of uncontrolled lowering ofa heavy load in accordance with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) NOG-1-1998 (Reference 3). The Hatch Hoists were modeled and qualified using structural stress analyses of all dynamic andgravity loads todemonstrate structural integrity, tosupport the safety function which isprevention of uncontrolled lowering of a heavy load in accordance with Reference 3 and the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISG) N690-1994 (Reference 4).

The specific qualification method (i.e., type testing, analysis, orcombination) used for each piece of equipment in the Table isidentified in Attachment A. Additional information about the methods usedtoqualify AP1000 safety-related equipment is provided in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Appendix 3D(Reference 5).

The EQ Reports (References 6 through 11) are identified in Attachment Afor the seismic Category Iequipment and conclude that the equipment identified in Table 2.3.5-1 can withstand seismicdesign basis loads without loss ofsafetyfunction.

iiil A report exists and concludes that the as-built eouioment including anchorage is seismicallv bounded bv the tested or analvzed conditions.

An inspection (Reference 1) isconducted to confirm the satisfactory installation of the seismically qualified equipment in theTable. The inspection verifies theequipment make/model/serial number, as-designed equipment mounting orientation, anchorage and clearances, and electrical and other interfaces. The documentation of installed configuration of seismically qualified equipment includes photographs and/or sketches/drawings of equipment/mounting/interfaces.

As part of the seismic qualification program, consideration isgiven to the definition of the clearances needed aroundthe equipment mounted in the plantto permit the equipment to move during a postulated seismic event without causing impact between adjacent pieces of safety-related equipment. This is done as part of seismic testing by measuring the maximum dynamic relative displacement of thetop and bottom of theequipment. EQ Reports (Reference 6 through 11) identify the equipment mounting employed for qualification and establish interface requirements for assuring that subsequent in-plant installation does not degrade the established qualification. Interface requirements aredefined based on the test configuration and other design requirements.

Attachment Aidentifies the EQRR (Reference 2)completed to verify thatthe as-built seismic Category Iequipment listed in the Table, including anchorage, is seismically bounded by the tested oranalyzed conditions and NRC Regulatory Guide 1.100, Rev. 2 (Reference 12).

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0270 Enclosure Page 4 of 6 Together, these reports (References 2 and 6 through 11) provide evidence that the ITAAC Acceptance Criteria requirements are met.

The seismic Category Iequipment identified in Table 2.3.5-1 is located on the Nuclear Island; Areport existsand concludes thatthe seismic Category Iequipment can withstand seismic design basis loads withoutloss of safety function; and Areport existsand concludes thatthe as-built equipment including anchorageis seismicallybounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

References 2 and 6 through 11 are available for NRC inspection as partofthe Unit 3 and Unit 4 ITAAC 2.3.05.02.i Completion Packages (References 13 and 14, respectively).

List of ITAAC Findings In accordancewith plant procedures for ITAAC completion. Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) performed a review of all ITAAC findings and associated corrective actions.

This review, which included now consolidated ITAAC Indexes 341 and 342, found no relevant ITAAC findings associated with this ITAAC.
