U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-17-2039 Enclosure Page 2 of 5 ITAAC Statement Design Commitment:
: 2.      The equipment identified as having seismic design requirements in Table 2.3.11-1 can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of its structural integrity function.
Inspections. Tests. Analyses:
i)      Inspection will be performed to verify that the equipment identified as having seismic design requirements in Table 2.3.11-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.
ii)     Type tests, analyses, or a combination of type tests and analyses of seismically designed equipment will be performed.
ill)    Inspection will be performed forthe existence of a report verifying that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismically bounded bythe tested or analyzed conditions.
Acceptance Criteria:
i)      Theequipment identified as having seismic design requirements in Table 2.3.11 -1 is located on the Nuclear Island.
ii)     Areport exists and concludes thatthe seismically designed equipment can withstand appropriate seismic design basis loads without loss of itsstructural integrity function.
iii)    A report exists and concludes that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismicallybounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.
ITAAC Determination Basis This ITAAC requires that inspections, tests, and analyses be performed and documented to ensure the Gaseous Radwaste System (WGS) equipment identified as having seismic design requirements in theCombined License (COL) Appendix CTable 2.3.11-1 (Table) can withstand seismic design basis loads without the loss of itsstructural integrity function. The subject ITAAC required:
* An inspection be performed to verify that the WGS Activated Carbon Delay Beds are located on the Nuclear Island.
* Type tests, analyses, ora combination of type tests and analyses be performed onthe WGS Activated Carbon Delay Beds.
* An inspection be performed for the existence of a report thatconcludes thatthe as-built equipment, the WGS Activated Carbon Delay Beds, including anchorage isseismically bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.
To assure that the equipment identified in the Table can withstand the appropriate seismic design basis loads without loss of its structural integrity function, an inspection was conducted of the WGS to confirm the satisfactory installation of the equipment with seismic design requirements identified in Attachment A. The inspection included verification of equipment

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-17-2039 Enclosure Page 3 of 5 number and location. The inspections to verify installed component locations are documented in Quality Assurance (OA) inspection reports (References 1 and 2). The results of the inspections conclude that each component identified in Attachment A is located on the Nuclear Island.
Seismic loads for the equipment were established using one-half of the AP1000 Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) floor response spectra. Seismic analyses of the equipment identified in the Table were performed to demonstrate structural integrity in accordance with American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code Section VIII, Rules for Construction of Pressure Vessels (Reference 3). The analyses are documented in the WGS delay bed design report (Reference
: 4) and conclude that the equipment identified in the Table as having seismic design requirements can withstand appropriate seismic design basis loads without loss of its structural integrity function.
In accordance with the fabrication and construction installation work packages, inspections were performed on the WGS Activated Carbon Delay Beds and anchorage to confirm the satisfactory installation of the seismically designed equipment. The inspection included verification of equipment fabrication, equipment mounting, equipment anchorage, and critical attributes from the seismic analyses. In accordance with NEI 08-01, Section 9.5, inspection of WGS Activated Carbon Delay Bed equipment mounting and verification of critical attributes from the seismic analyses were performed at otherthan the final installed location, due to inaccessibility ofthe equipment after installation. Non-conformances and design changes issued during fabrication and installation against the equipment and anchorage were analyzed against the seismic analyses to ensure inspection results performed at other thanthe equipment's final location remained valid for supporting ITAAC acceptance criteria. Non-conformances and design changes issued upthrough installation of the equipment including attachment to the seismic Category 1 structure were analyzed against the seismic analysis to verify that the analyzed conditions were still bounding when considering the cumulative effects of any deviating conditions.
The results of the verifications were documented in the as-built seismic reconciliation report (Reference 5). The verifications demonstrated that the as-built equipment in COL Appendix C, Table 2.3.11-1, including anchorage, is seismically bounded bythe analyzed conditions.
Together, these reports (References 1, 2,4, and 5) provide evidence thatthe ITAAC Acceptance Criteria requirements are met:
* The equipment identified as having seismic design requirements in Table 2.3.11-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.
* A report exists and concludesthat the seismically designed equipment can withstand appropriate seismic design basis loads without loss of itsstructural integrity function.
* A report exists and concludes that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismically bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-17-2039 Enclosure Page 4 of 5 ITAAC Finding Review In accordance with plant procedures for ITAAC completion, Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) performed a review of ITAAC Findings and associated corrective actions. This review which included now-consolidated ITAAC Indexes 450, 451, and 452 found no relevant ITAAC Findings associated with this ITAAC. The ITAAC finding review is referenced in the Vogtle Unit 3 ITAAC Completion Package for ITAAC 2.3.11.02.1 (Reference 6) and is available for NRC review.
ITAAC Completion Statement Based on the above information, SNC hereby notifies the NRC that ITAAC 2.3.11.02.i [Index Number 450] was performed for VEGP Unit 3 and that the prescribed acceptance criteria are met.
Systems, structures, and components verified as part of this ITAAC are being maintained in their as-designed, ITAAC compliant condition in accordance with approved plant programs and procedures.
