U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-17-1950 Enclosure Page 2 of 3 ITAAC Statement Desion Commitment:

1. The external walls, doors, ceiling, and floors in the location within which the last access control function for access to the protected area is performed are bullet-resistant to at least Underwriters Laboratory BallisticStandard 752, level 4.

Insoections. Tests. Analvses:

Type test, analysis, or a combination oftype test and analysis will be performed for the external walls, doors, ceilings, and floors in the location within which the last access control function for access to the protected area is performed.

Acceotance Criteria:

The external walls, doors, ceilings, and floors inthe location within which the last access control function for access to the protected area is performed are bullet-resistant to at least Underwriters Laboratory Ballistic Standard 752, level 4.

ITAAC Determination Basis Acombination of type test and analysis was performed demonstrating thatthe external walls, doors, ceilings, and floors in the location within which the last access control function for access to the protected area is performed are bullet-resistant to at least Undenwriters Laboratory (UL)

Ballistic Standard 752, Level 4.

The location within which the last access control function for access to the protected area is performed is in the Personnel Access Point (Building 304). This building is common and applicable to both Vogtle Units 3 and 4.

Type testing was performed onthe materials used toconstruct the walls, doors, ceilings, and windows of the bullet resistant enclosure in the Personnel Access Point building to a level exceeding UL 752 Level 4 using guidance in Regulatory Guide 5.76 (Reference 1). The tests consisted of discharging a weapon using the appropriate caliber ammunition at a sample of the material in a controlled environment and inspecting the material to ensure protection is provided against complete penetration, passage of fragments of projectiles, orspelling (fragmentation) of the protective material to the degree that injury would be caused to a person standing directly behind the bullet-resisting barrier.

Analyses were performed which demonstrate that the as-built concrete floor slab of the bullet resistant enclosure In the Personnel Access Point building meets the bullet resistance criteria.

The analyses verified the as-built floor attributes (e.g. floor thickness, compressive strength, and reinforcement) met or exceeded each of the key design attributes needed to prevent penetration and spallation.

The results are documented in a summary report (Reference 2) which concludes that the external walls, doors, ceilings, and floors in the location within which the lastaccess control

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-17-1950 Enclosure Page 3 of 3 function for access to the protected area is performed are bullet-resistant to at least Underwriters Laboratory Ballistic Standard 752, Level 4.
