The inspectors identified a finding of ver … The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an NCV of TS 5.4.1.d when the licensee failed to maintain procedures associated with Fire Protection Program Implementation, consistent with the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR), to ensure that fire strategy procedures accurately indicated safe shutdown (SSD) equipment. Specifically, on June 25, 2015, the licensee failed to maintain A.3-12-C, Condenser Room Fire Strategy, to ensure SSD equipment was appropriately identified. In this case, fire strategy A.3-12-C failed to identify any SSD equipment in the room, despite the fact that SSD cabling ran through the room and was included in the USAR Fire Hazards Analysis. Corrective actions included performance of an extent of condition review which identified 40 other fire strategies where safe shutdown cabling was not identified, and initiation of procedure changes to include the appropriate SSD equipment. This issue was entered into the licensees CAP (CAP 1484142).</br>The inspectors determined that the failure to maintain fire strategy procedures to ensure that SSD equipment was identified was a performance deficiency requiring evaluation. The inspectors determined the issue was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, Appendix B, because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Factorsincluding fire, and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). The inspectors assessed the significance of this finding using IMC 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings," and IMC 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection SDP, and determined that it had very low safety significance. The inspectors determined that the contributing cause that provided the most insight into the performance deficiency was associated with the cross-cutting area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Self-Assessment aspect because of the licensees failure to conduct self-critical and objective assessments of its programs and practices.assessments of its programs and practices.
