U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0807 Enclosure Page 2 of 3 ITAAC Statement Desion Commitment

8. Isolation zones and exterior areas within the protected area are provided with illumination to permit observation of abnormal presence or activity of persons or vehicles.

Inspections. Tests. Analvses Inspection of the illumination in the isolation zones and external areas of the protected area will be performed.

Acceptance Criteria The illumination in isolation zones and exterior areas within the protected area is 0.2 foot candles measured horizontally at ground level or, alternatively, sufficient to permit observation.

ITAAC Completion Description An inspection is performed to verify the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Unit 3 [Unit 4]

isolation zones and exterior areas within the protected area are provided with illumination to permit observation of abnormal presence or activity of persons or vehicles. The inspection confirms the illumination in isolation zones and external areas within the protected area is a minimum of 0.2 foot candles measured horizontally at ground level or, alternatively, sufficientto permit observation, and satisfy the applicable illumination requirements of the VEGP Unit 3 and Unit 4 Physical Security Plan associated with 10CFR 73.55(i)(6)(ii). The VEGP Unit 3 [Unit 4]

Plant Security System ITAACs only cover the Unit 3 [Unit 4] plant security system design commitment scope.

Procedure XXX, Unit 3 [Unit 4] Isolation Zone and Protected Area Lighting System Inspection, (Reference 1 [2]) measures the illumination in isolation zones and exterior areas within the protected area. The measurements are taken horizontally at ground level with a calibrated light meter during clear weather conditions at night with no full moon. Ground level is considered to be approximately 6 inches above the ground or surface being tested.

The VEGP Unit 3 [Unit 4] isolation zones and exterior areas of the protected area are divided into grid sections. Measurement of illumination levels in each section are taken at locations determined by Procedure XXX. Procedure criteria for selecting the measurement locations in each section include points on the extreme boundary ofthe section being measured, midpoints between the outdoorsecurity lighting luminaries, corners at the intersection of exterior building walls, isolation zone corners, exterior area access doors to vital areas, and other external areas within the protected area and isolation zone areas ofapparent low light within the section.

The results of the Unit 3 [Unit 4] isolation zone and protected area lighting system inspection are documented in Inspection Report YYY, Unit 3 [Unit 4] Isolation Zone and Protected Area Lighting System Inspection Report (Reference 3 [4]) and confirm that the illumination in isolation zones and exterior areas within the protected area is a minimum of 0.2 foot candles measured horizontally at ground level or, alternatively, sufficient to permit observation of abnormal presence oractivity of persons orvehicles, utilizing low-light technologies referenced in the VEGP Unit 3 and Unit 4 Physical Security Plan.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0807 Enclosure Page 3 of 3 References 1 and 3 [2 and 4] are available for NRG inspection as part of the ITAAC 2.6.09.08 Completion Package (Reference 5 [6]).
