SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Licensee Notification of Completion of ITAAC South Carolina Electric & Gas (SCE&G), on behalf of itself and the South Carolina Public Service Authority, (both hereafter called the licensee) has submitted ITAAC closure notifications
(ICNs)under title 10 of the *Code of Federal Regulations* (10 CFR) 52.99(c)(1), informing the NRC that the licensee has successfully performed the required inspections, tests, and analyses, and that the acceptance criteria are met for: *VCSNS Unit 2 ITAAC* 2.1.01.06.ii (7), 2.1.03.09a.i (81), 2.5.01.03c (513), and C.3.8.01.02.03
(845)*VCSNS Unit 3 ITAAC* 2.1.01.06.ii (7), 2.1.03.09a.i (81), 2.5.01.03c (513), 3.3.00.09 (814), and C.3.8.01.02.03
(845)The ITAAC for VCSNS Unit 2 are in Appendix C of the VCSNS Unit 2 combined license (ADAMS Accession No. ML14100A092). The ITAAC for VCSNS Unit 3 are in Appendix C of VCSNS Unit 3 combined license (ADAMS Accession No. ML14100A101). II. NRC Staff Determination of Completion of ITAAC The NRC staff has determined that the specified inspections, tests, and analyses have been successfully completed, and that the specified acceptance criteria are met. The documentation of the NRC staff's determination is in the ITAAC Closure Verification Evaluation Form
(VEF)for each ITAAC. The VEF is a form that represents the NRC staff's structured process for reviewing ICNs. Each ICN presents a narrative description of how the ITAAC was completed. The NRC's ICN review process involves a determination on whether, among other things:
(1)Each ICN provides sufficient information, including a summary of the methodology used to perform the ITAAC, to demonstrate that the inspections, tests, and analyses have been successfully completed;
(2)each ICN provides sufficient information to demonstrate that the acceptance criteria of the ITAAC are met; and
(3)any NRC inspections for the ITAAC have been completed and any ITAAC findings associated with that ITAAC have been closed. The NRC staff's determination of the successful completion of these ITAAC is based on information available at this time and is subject to the licensee's ability to maintain the condition that the acceptance criteria are met. If the staff receives new information that suggests the staff's determination on any of these ITAAC is incorrect, then the staff will determine whether to reopen that ITAAC (including withdrawing the staff's determination on that ITAAC). The NRC staff's determination will be used to support a subsequent finding, pursuant to 10 CFR 52.103(g), at the end of construction that all acceptance criteria in the combined license are met. The ITAAC closure process is not finalized for these ITAAC until the NRC makes an affirmative finding under 10 CFR 52.103(g). Any future updates to the status of these ITAAC will be reflected on the NRC's Web site at *http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/new-reactors/oversight/itaac.html* . This notice fulfills the staff's obligations under 10 CFR 52.99(e)(1) to publish a notice in the **Federal Register** of the NRC staff's determination of the successful completion of inspections, tests, and analyses.
