Inaccordance with 10 CFR 52.99(c)(1), the purpose of this letter is to notify the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) ofthe completion of Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Unit 3 Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC) Item 2.2.03.08c.v.01 [Index Number 187] for verifying that the elevation ofthe bottom inside tank surface ofthe Core Makeup Tanks (CMTs) is higher than the direct vessel injection nozzle centerlines bygreaterthan or equalto 7.5ft.
The closure process for this ITAAC is based on 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.
This letter contains no new NRC regulatory commitments. Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) requests NRC staffconfirmation ofthis determination and publication ofthe required notice in the Federal Register per 10 CFR 52.99.
If there are any questions, please contact Tom Petrak at 706-848-1575.
Respectfully submitted.

The PXS provides RCS makeup, boration, and safety injection during design basis events.
Insoections/Tests/Analvses v)
Inspections ofthe elevation of the following tanks will be conducted:
1.CMTS Acceptance Criteria v)
The elevation ofthe bottom insidetank surface is higherthan the directvessel injection nozzle centerline by the following:
1.CMTs> 7.5 ft ITAAC Determination Basis Multiple ITAAC are performed to demonstratethat the Passive Core Cooling System (PXS) provides Reactor Coolant System (RCS) makeup, boration, and safetyinjection during design basis events. This ITAAC requires that inspections be conducted to verify that the elevation of the Core MakeupTanks (CMTs) bottom insidetank surface is higherthan the direct vessel injection nozzle centerline by s 7.5 ft.
The inspection ofthe bottom insidetank surface of both CMTs (SV3-PXS-MT-02A and -02B) and their associated direct vessel injection nozzle centerlines was performed using survey equipment in accordance with site survey and measurement procedures (Reference 1).
Additionally, calculations, based upon as-built manufacturer's data, combined with field measurements were used to determine the elevation of the bottom inside surfaces of each tank.
The derived elevation of the bottom inside tank surface of each CMT was compared to the measured elevation of their associated direct vessel injection nozzle centerline using a common reference point.
The inspection results are documented in Reference 2. The results determined that the elevation of the bottom inside tank surface of CMT SV3-PXS-MT-02A and SV3-PXS-MT-02B is 107.09 feet and 107.13 feet, respectively and the elevation of their associated direct vessel injection nozzle centerlines is 99.58 feet and 99.57 feet, respectively. These inspection results verify thatthe elevation ofthe bottom inside tank surface ofCMT SV3-PXS-MT-02A and -02B is 7.5 ft and 7.6 ft higherthan the elevation oftheir associated respective directvessel injection nozzle centerlines, which meets the ITAAC acceptance criteria.
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-1208 Enclosure Page 3 of 3 ITAAC Finding Review In accordance with plant procedures for ITAAC completion, Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) performed a reviewof all ITAAC findings pertaining to the subject ITAAC and associated corrective actions. This review found that there are no relevant ITAAC findings associated with this ITAAC. The ITAAC completion review is documented in the ITAAC Completion Package for ITAAC 2.2.03.08c.iv.01 (Reference 3) and available for NRC review.
