U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555-0001 Southern Nuclear Operating Company Vogtle Electric Generating Plant Unit 3 and Unit 4 Notice of Uncompleted ITAAC 225-davs Prior to Initial Fuel Load Item 2.6.01.02.i [Index Number 5791 Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to 10 CFR 52.99(c)(3), Southern Nuclear Operating Company hereby notifiesthe NRC that as of March 1, 2018, Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Unit 3 and Unit4 Uncompleted Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC) Item 2.6.01.02.1

[Index Number579] has not been completed greater than 225-days prior to initial fuel load. The Enclosure describes the plan for completing this ITAAC. Southern Nuclear Operating Company will, at a later date, provide additional notificationsfor ITAAC that have not been completed 225-days prior to initial fuel load.

This notification is informed by the guidance described in NEI 08-01, Industry Guideline for the 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, or analyses have not been performedor have been only partially completed.

All ITAAC will be fully completed and all Section 52.99(c)(1) ITAAC Closure Notifications will be submitted to NRCto support the Commission finding that all acceptance criteria are met priorto 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 Michael J. Yox-Regulatory Affairs Director Vogtle 3 &4

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0304 Enclosure Page 2 of 5 ITAAC Statement Design Commitment

2. The seismic Category I equipment identified in Table 2.6.1-1 can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

Inspections. Tests. Analyses i) Inspection will be performedto verify that the seismic Category Iequipment identified inTable 2.6.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.

ii) Typetests, analyses, or a combination oftypetests and analyses ofseismicCategory I equipment will be performed.

ill) Inspection will be performed for the existence ofa report verifying that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismically bounded bythe tested or analyzed conditions.

Acceptance Criteria i) Theseismic Category Iequipment identified in Table 2.6.1-1 islocated onthe Nuclear Island.

ii) Areport exists and concludes that theseismic Category Iequipment canwithstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

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

ITAAC Completion Description This ITAAC requires thatinspections, tests, andanalyses be performed anddocumented to ensurethe Main ac Power System (ECS) equipment identified as seismic Category IorClass 1E in the Combined License (COL) Appendix C,Table 2.6.1-1 (theTable) are designedand constructed in accordance with applicable requirements.

ii The seismic Category I eouioment identified in Table 2.6.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.

Toassure thatseismic Category Iequipment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function, all theequipment in theTable isdesigned tobe located onthe seismic Category INuclear Island. In accordance with Equipment Qualification (EG) Walkdown ITAAC Guideline (Reference 1), an inspection isconducted of the ECS to confirm thesatisfactory installation ofthe 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 CategoryI equipment is located on the NuclearIsland.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0304 Enclosure Page 3 of 5 ii) A report exists and concludes that the seismic Cateoorv I eauioment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

Seismic Category I equipment in the Table requires type tests and/or analyses to demonstrate structural integrity and operability. Safety-related (Class 1E) electrical equipment in the Table is seismically qualified by type testing combined with analysis in accordance with Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard 344-1987 (Reference 3). The specific qualification method (i.e., type testing, analysis, or combination) used for each piece of equipment in the Table is identified in Attachment A. Additional information about the methods used to qualify API000 safety-related equipment is provided inthe Updated FinalSafety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Appendix 3D (Reference 4). The EQ Reports (Reference 5) identified in Attachment Acontain applicable test reports and associated documentation and conclude that the seismic Category Iequipmentcan withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

iii) A report exists and concludes that the as-built eauioment including anchorage is seismicallv bounded bv the tested or analyzed conditions.

An inspection (Reference 1) is conducted to confirm the satisfactoryinstallation ofthe seismically qualified equipmentinthe Table. The inspection verifies the equipment 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/orsketches/drawings of equipment/mounting/interfaces.

Aspartof the seismic qualification program, consideration isgiven tothe definition ofthe clearances needed around the equipment mounted inthe plant to permitthe equipment to move during a postulated seismic event without causing impact between adjacent pieces of safety-related equipment. This isdone as partofseismic testing bymeasuring the maximum dynamic relative displacement of the topand bottom ofthe equipment. EQ Reports (Reference 5) identify theequipment mounting employed for qualification and establish interface requirements for assuring thatsubsequent in-plant installation does not degrade the established qualification.

Interface requirements are defined based onthe test configuration and otherdesign requirements.

Attachment Aidentifies the EQRR (Reference 2) completedto verify that the as-built seismic Category Iequipment listed in theTable, including anchorage, areseismically bounded by the tested oranalyzed conditions, IEEE Standard 344-1987 (Reference 3)and NRG Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.100 (Reference 6).

Together, these reports (References 2 and5) provide evidence thatthe ITAAC Acceptance Criteria requirements are met:

TheseismicCategory Iequipment identified in Table 2.6.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island; Areport exists and concludes thatthe seismic Category 1equipment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss ofsafety function; and

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0304 Enclosure Page 4 of 5 A report exists and concludes that the as-bullt equipment Including anchorage Is selsmlcally bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

References 2 and 5 are available for NRG Inspection as part of the Unit 3 and Unit 4 ITAAC 2.6.01.02.1 Completion Packages (References 7 and 8, respectively).

List of ITAAC Findings In accordance with plant procedures for ITAAC completion, Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) performed a review of all ITAAC findings pertainingto the subject ITAAC and associated corrective actions. This finding review, which Included now-consolidated ITAAC Indexes 580 and 581, found there are no relevant ITAAC findings associated with this ITAAC.
