U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-21-0620 Enclosure Page 2 of 4 IT AAC Statement Design Commitment 7.c) Separation is maintained between Class 1E divisions in accordance with the fire areas as identified in Table 3.3-3.

Inspections, Tests, Analyses ii) Inspections of the as-built fire barriers between the fire areas identified in Table 3.3-3 will be conducted.

Acceptance Criteria ii.b) Results of the inspection will confirm that fire barriers exist between fire areas identified in Table 3.3-3 inside the radiologically controlled area of the auxiliary building.

ITAAC Determination Basis Multiple ITAAC are performed to demonstrate that separation is maintained between Class 1E divisions in accordance with the fire areas as identified in Table 3.3-3. The subject ITAAC requires inspections to be conducted of the as-built fire barriers between the fire areas identified in Table 3.3-3. The Class 1E divisions in Nuclear Island Fire Areas are described in Combined Operating License (COL) Appendix C Table 3.3-3 (Attachment A). The fire barriers between fire areas identified in Table 3.3-3 inside the radiologically controlled area of the auxiliary building are designed in accordance with APP-GW-E1-001 (Reference 1). Installation specifications provided to the constructor identify the fire barriers, consistent with the ITAAC commitment.

Fire barriers between the fire areas identified in the table were installed in accordance with design drawings, installation specifications issued for construction , and work package requirements. Completed fire barriers were inspected to ensure the fire barrier criteria in the installation specifications are satisfied . Inspections were performed in accordance with the Construction Quality Verification Program 26139-000-4MP-T81 C-N7101 (Reference 2). The completed inspection records document that satisfactory fire barriers exist between fire areas identified in the table inside the radiologically controlled area of the auxiliary building .

The Fire Barrier Inspection Report (Reference 3) identifies the inspection reports associated with the fire barrier inspections and confirmed that fire barriers exist between fire areas identified in Table 3.3-3 inside the radiologically controlled area of the auxiliary building.

The Fire Barrier Inspection Report is available for N RC inspection as part of the Unit 3 ITAAC Completion Package (Reference 4).

ITAAC Finding Review In accordance with plant procedures for ITAAC completion , Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) performed a review of all findings pertaining to the subject ITAAC and associated corrective actions. This review found there are no relevant ITAAC findings associated with this ITAAC. The ITAAC completion review is documented in the ITAAC Completion Package for ITAAC 3.3.00.0?c.ii.b (Reference 4) and is available for NRC review.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-21-0620 Enclosure Page 3 of 4 ITAAC Completion Statement Based on the above information, SNC hereby notifies the NRC that ITAAC 3.3.00.0?c.ii.b was performed for VEGP Unit 3 and that the prescribed acceptance criteria were met.
