A nozzle assembly includes a nozzle having a trailing edge of an outer band and an anti-rotation pin slot. Also included is a retaining ring extending circumferentially about the outer surface of the outer band, wherein the retaining ring includes an anti-rotation pin and an anti-rotation pin hole, wherein the anti-rotation pin is configured to fittingly reside in an axial orientation within the anti-rotation pin slot and the anti-rotation pin hole. Further included is a seal plate seated on the outer surface of the outer band and configured to retain the anti-rotation pin. Yet further included is a washer disposed within a bored portion of the seal plate, wherein the bored portion is aligned with an aperture within the retaining ring, wherein a mechanical fastener extends into the retaining ring through the bored portion to operably couple the seal plate to the retaining ring.

The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 3, wherein the at least one cooling hole extends angularly at a location radially inward of the seal plate. 5. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 1, further comprising an axial gap clearance between the nozzle and the retaining ring proximate an aft flange of the nozzle. 6. A nozzle mounting and sealing assembly for a gas turbine system comprising: a nozzle having a trailing edge of an outer band and an anti-rotation pin slot;a retaining ring extending circumferentially about an outer surface of the outer band, wherein the retaining ring includes an anti-rotation pin and an anti-rotation pin hole, wherein the anti-rotation pin is configured to fittingly reside in an axial orientation within the anti-rotation pin slot and the anti-rotation pin hole;a seal plate seated on the outer surface of the outer band and configured to retain the anti-rotation pin within the anti-rotation pin slot and the anti-rotation pin hole;a washer disposed within a bored portion of the seal plate, wherein the bored portion is aligned with an aperture within the retaining ring, wherein a mechanical fastener extends into the retaining ring through the bored portion to operably couple the seal plate to the retaining ring; andat least one cooling groove disposed within the retaining ring proximate an interface between the retaining ring and the seal plate, wherein an axially rearward end of the anti-rotation pin includes at least one notched portion corresponding to the at least one cooling groove. 7. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 6, wherein the at least one cooling groove comprises a plurality of cooling grooves radially spaced from each other. 8. A nozzle mounting and sealing assembly for a gas turbine system comprising: a nozzle having an outer band integrally formed with a radially outer portion of at least one vane, wherein the outer band includes a leading edge and a trailing edge;a retaining ring engaged with and extending circumferentially about an outer surface of the outer band, wherein the retaining ring includes an anti-rotation pin and an anti-rotation pin hole, wherein the anti-rotation pin is configured to fittingly reside within an anti-rotation pin slot and the anti-rotation pin hole;a seal plate having a forward side, an aft side, a radially inner edge and a radially outer edge, wherein the radially inner edge is disposed along the outer surface of the outer band, thereby retaining the anti-rotation pin within the anti-rotation pin slot, wherein the seal plate comprises at least one notch disposed proximate a first edge of the seal plate and proximate an edge of an adjacent seal plate; anda stepped aperture disposed within the seal plate proximate the radially outer edge, wherein the stepped aperture includes a first bore proximate the aft side and a second bore proximate the forward side, wherein the first bore comprises a larger diameter than the second bore, wherein a cup washer is disposed within the stepped aperture for receiving a mechanical fastener, wherein the mechanical fastener extends into the retaining ring for fastening the seal plate to the retaining ring. 9. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 8, further comprising at least one cooling groove disposed within the retaining ring proximate an interface between the retaining ring and the seal plate. 10. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 9, wherein the at least one cooling groove extends circumferentially around the outer band of the nozzle. 11. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 10, wherein an axially rearward end of the anti-rotation pin includes at least one notched portion corresponding to the at least one cooling groove. 12. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 8, further comprising at least one cooling hole disposed within the outer band proximate the trailing edge of the nozzle. 13. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 12, wherein the at least one cooling hole extends angularly at a location radially inward of the seal plate seated within the notch of the outer band. 14. The nozzle mounting and sealing assembly of claim 8, further comprising an axial gap clearance between the nozzle and the retaining ring proximate an aft flange of the nozzle.
