Thedocumentation ofinstalled configuration of seismically qualified equipment includes photographs and/or sketches/drawings of equipment/mounting/interfaces.
As part of the seismic qualification program, consideration isgiven to the definition of the clearances needed around the equipment mounted in the plant to permit the equipmentto move during a postulated seismic event without causing impact between adjacent pieces of safety-related equipment. This isdone as part of seismic testing by measuring the maximum dynamic relative displacement of thetop and bottom of the equipment. EQ Reports (Reference 7) identify the equipment mounting employed for qualification and establish interface requirements for assuring that subsequent in-plant installation does not degrade the established qualification.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0225 Enclosure Page 2 of 7 ITAAC Statement Desion Commitment:

5. The seismic Category I equipment identified in Table 2.7.1-1 can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

Inspections. Tests. Analyses:

i) Inspection will be performed to verify that the seismic Category I equipment identified in Table 2.7.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.

ii) Type tests, analyses, or a combination of type tests and analyses of seismic Category I equipment will be performed.

iii) Inspection will be performed for the existence of a report verifying that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismically bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

Acceptance Criteria:

i) The seismic Category Iequipment identified inTable 2.7.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island.

ii) A report exists and concludes that the seismic Category Iequipmentcan withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

iii) A reportexists and concludes that the as-built equipmentincluding anchorage is seismicaily bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

ITAAC Completion Description This ITAAC requires that inspections, tests, and analyses be performed and documented to ensure the Nuclear Island Nonradioactive Ventilation System (VBS) equipment identifiedas seismic Category Iin the Combined License (COL) Appendix C, Table 2.7.1-1 (the Table) is designed and constructed inaccordance with applicable requirements.

if The seismic Cateoorv I equipment identified in Table 2.7.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island To assure that seismic Category Iequipment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss ofsafety function, all the equipment in the Table is designed to be locatedon the seismic CategoryI Nuclear Island. In accordance with Equipment Qualification (EG) Walkdown ITAAC Guideline (Reference 1), an inspection is conducted of the VBS to confirm the satisfactory installation of the seismicallyqualified equipment. The inspection includes verification of equipment make/model/serial number and verification of equipment location (Building, Elevation, Room). The EQ As-Built Reconciliation Reports (EQRR) (Reference 2) identified in Attachment A document the results of the inspection and conclude that the seismic Category I equipment is located on the Nuclear Island.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0225 Enclosure Page 3 of 7 I!) A report exists and concludes that the seismic Cateoorv I eauioment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function.

Seismic Category Iequipment in the Table requires type tests and/or analyses to demonstrate structural integrity and operability. Structural integrity of the seismic Category Ivalves is demonstrated by analysis in accordance with American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code Section III (Reference3). Functionality ofthe subset ofactive safety-related valves under seismic loads is determined using the guidance of ASME QME-1-2007 (Reference 4).

Safety-related (Class 1E)electrical equipment in the Table is seismically qualified bytype testing combined with analysis in accordance with Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard 344-1987 (Reference 5). This equipment includes safety-related active valve accessories such as electric actuators, positionswitches, pilot solenoid valves and electricalconnector assemblies. The specificqualification method (i.e., type testing, analysis, or combination) used for each pieceofequipment in the Tableis identified in Attachment A.

Additional informationabout the methods used to qualifyAPI 000 safety-related equipment is provided in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Appendix 3D (Reference 6).

The EQ Reports (Reference 7) identified in Attachment Acontain applicable test reports and associated documentation and conclude that the seismic Category Iequipment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss ofsafety function.

iiil A reoort exists and concludes that the as-built eauioment including anchorage is seismicallv bounded bv the tested or analyzed conditions.

An inspection (Reference 1) isconducted to confirm thesatisfactory installation of the seismically qualified equipment in the Table. The inspection verifies the equipment make/model/serial number, as-designed equipment mounting orientation, anchorage and clearances, and electrical and otherinterfaces. Thedocumentation ofinstalled configuration of seismically qualified equipment includes photographs and/or sketches/drawings of equipment/mounting/interfaces.

As part of theseismic qualification program, consideration isgiven tothedefinition of the clearances needed around the equipmentmounted in the plantto permit the equipmentto move during a postulated seismic event without causing impact between adjacent pieces of safety-related equipment. This isdone as part of seismic testing by measuring the maximum dynamic relative displacement of thetop andbottom of theequipment. EQ Reports (Reference 7) identify the equipment mounting employed for qualification and establish interface requirements for assuring that subsequent in-plant installation does not degrade theestablished qualification.

Interface requirements are defined based onthe test configuration and otherdesign requirements.

Attachment Aidentifies the EQRR (Reference 2)completed to verify thatthe as-built seismic Category Iequipment listed in the Table, including anchorage, is seismically bounded by the tested oranalyzed conditions, IEEE Standard 344-1987 (Reference 5), and NRG Regulatory Guide 1.100 (Reference 8).

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-18-0225 Enclosure Page 4 of 7 Together, these reports (References 2 and 7) provide evidence that the ITAAC Acceptance Criteria requirements are met; The seismic Category I equipment identified in Table 2.7.1-1 is located on the Nuclear Island; A report exists and concludes that the seismic Category I equipment can withstand seismic design basis loads without loss of safety function; and A report exists and concludes that the as-built equipment including anchorage is seismically bounded by the tested or analyzed conditions.

References 2 and 7 are available for NRC inspection as part of the Unit3 and Unit4 ITAAC 2.7.01.05.1 Completion Packages (References 9 and 10, respectively).
