Pursuant to 10 CFR 52.99(c)(3), Southern Nuclear Operating Company hereby notifies the NRC that as of January 02, 2018, Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP) Unit 3 and Unit 4 Uncompleted Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC) Item 3.3.00.02h
[Index Numbejr 776] has not been completed greater than 225-days prior to initial fuel load. The Enclosure describes the plan for completing this ITAAC. Southern Nuclear Operating Company will, at a later dat4, provide additional notifications for ITAAC that have not been completed 225-days prior to initial fuel load.
This notification is informed by the guidance described in NEI 08-01, Industry Guideline for the ITAAC Closu       e Process Under 10 CFR Part 52, which was endorsed by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.215.      In accordance with NEI 08-01, this notification includes ITAAC for which required inspections, tests, or analyses have not been performed or have been only partially completed. All ITAAC will be fully completed and all Section 52.99(c)(1) ITAAC Closure Notifications will be submitted to NRC to support the Commission finding that all acceptance criteria are met prior to plant operatic n, as required by 10 CFR 52.103(g).
This letter contains no new NRC regulatory commitments.
If there are ariy questions, please contact Tom Petrak at 706-848-1575.
Respectfully submitted.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory      Commission ND-17-2043 Enclosure Page 2 of 3 ITAAC Statement Design Commitment 2.h) The free volume in the containment allows for floodup to support long-term core cooling for postulated losis-of-coolant accidents.
Insoections/T ests/Analvses An inspection will be performed of the as-built containment structures and equipment. The portions of the containment included in this inspection are the volumes that flood with a loss-of-coolatl)t accident in passive core cooling system valve/equipment room B (11207). The in-containmeiht refueling water storage tank volume is excluded from this inspection.
Acceotance Criteria A report exist 3and concludes that the floodup volume of this portion of the containment is less than 73,500 fi^ to an elevation of 108'.
ITAAC Comc letion Description An inspection is performed of the as-built containment structures and equipment. The volumes included in the inspection and calculation are the volumes that flood with a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) in passive corecooling system (PXS) valve/equipment room B(11207). The In-containmerrt Refueling Water Storagetank (IRWST) volume is excluded from this inspection.
The inspectio i report concludes thatthe floodup volume ofthis portion of the containment is less than 73,500 ft to an elevation of 108' which demonstrates the free volume in the containment ^Hows for floodup to support long-term core cooling for postulated loss-of-coolant accidents.
The inspectiop consists of measuring the areas in containment that flood with a LOCA in the PXS valve/eq jipment Room B(11207) using measurement equipment in accordance with site procedures. 1 hese measurements are used to confirm the calculation inputs (References 1 and 2), or used to calculate the free volume available is less than 73,500 ft to an elevation of 108'.
The results of the inspection and a summary of the calculations for Unit 3 and Unit 4 are documented in Principle Closure Document XXX (Unit 3) and Principle Closure Document YYY (Unit 4) (References 3 and 4). The reports conclude that the floodup volume of the specified portions of the containment to an elevation of 108' is calculated to beXX,XXX ft (for Unit 3),
and YY,YYY ft (for Unit 4), which meets the ITAAC acceptance criteria of less than 73,500 ft to an elevation of 108' for each unit. The results verify that the free volume in the containment allows for floodup to support long-term core cooling for postulated loss-of-coolant accidents.
The Unit 3 anifi   Unit 4 Principal Closure Documents XXX and YYY are available for NRC inspection as Dart of the Unit 3 and Unit 4 ITAAC 3.3.00.02h Completion Packages (References 5 and 6).
