Dear Mr. Walt:
On November 9, 2007, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a triennialfire protection inspection at your H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant Unit 2. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed at an exit meeting on that date, with you and members of your staff. The inspection examined activities conducted under your licenses as they relate to safety andcompliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. The enclosed report documents two noncompliances that were identified during the inspectionfor which the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion. The NRC is not taking any enforcement action for the noncompliances because it meets the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy, "Interim Enforcement Policy Regarding Enforcement Discretion for Certain Fire Protection Issues (10 CFR 50.48)." In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, itsenclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of NRC's document system (ADAMS).

REPORT DETAILS
1.REACTOR SAFETYCornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity1R05Fire ProtectionThis report presents the results of a triennial fire protection inspection for a plant intransition to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 805, "Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants, 2001 Edition." This inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.05TTP, "Fire Protection-NFPA 805 Transition Period (Triennial)."
The objective of the inspection was to review the H. B. Robinson Unit 2 (HBR2) fire protection program (FPP) for selected risk-significant fire areas. The team selected three fire areas for detailed review to examine the licensee's implementation of the FPP.
The three fire areas chosen for review were selected based on risk insights from the licensee's Individual Plant Examination for External Events (IPEEE), information contained in FPP documents, results of prior NRC triennial fire protection inspections, and in-plant tours by the inspectors. Section 71111.05-05 of the IP specifies a minimum sample size of three fire areas. Detailed inspection of these three fire areas fulfills the procedure completion criteria. The three areas chosen were:*Fire Area (FA) A5, Fire Zone (FZ) 22- Control Room, Auxiliary Building (AB),Elevation (EL) 254 foot (ft.)*FA A5, FZ 23 - Hagan Room, AB EL 254 ft.
- FA G1, FZ 25A - Turbine Building EL Ground Floor For each of the selected fire areas, the inspection team evaluated the licensee's FPPagainst the applicable NRC requirements. The specific documents reviewed by the team are listed in the Attachment.
.01 Post-Fire Safe Shutdown From Main Control Room (Normal Shutdown)
a. Inspection Scope
MethodologyThe team reviewed the Appendix R Safe Shutdown Component/Cable SeparationAnalysis (SSA), FPP-RNP-300, dedicated shutdown procedures (DSPs), piping and instrumentation drawings (P&IDs), electrical drawings, the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), and other supporting documents to verify that hot and cold shutdown could be achieved and maintained from the main control room (MCR) for postulated fires in FA G1, FZ 25A. This review also included verification that shutdown from the MCR could be performed both with and without the availability of offsite power.
Plant walkdowns were performed to verify that the plant configuration was consistent with that described in the fire hazards analysis (FHA) and SSA. These inspection activities focused on ensuring the adequacy of systems selected for reactivity control, 5reactor coolant makeup, reactor heat removal, process monitoring instrumentation andsupport systems functions. The team reviewed the systems and components credited for use during this shutdown method to verify that they would remain free from fire damage. Operational ImplementationThe team reviewed the adequacy of procedures utilized for post-fire safe shutdown(SSD) and performed a walk through of procedure steps to ensure the implementation and human factors adequacy of the procedures. The team also reviewed selected operator actions to verify that the operators could reasonably be expected to perform the specific actions within the time required to maintain plant parameters within specified limits. The team reviewed time critical actions including those for selected components toprevent fire-induced spurious operation for decay heat removal required components.
The team reviewed and walked down applicable sections of fire response procedure DSP-015, "Hot Shutdown from the Control Room with a Fire in the Turbine Building," for FA G1, FZ 25A.The team reviewed local operator manual actions to ensure that the actions could beimplemented in accordance with plant procedures in the times necessary to support the SSD method for the applicable FA and to verify that those actions met the criteria in
2 of NRC IP 71111.05TTP. The team reviewed Non-Conformance Report (NCR) corrective action document NCR 205333, Manual Operator Actions in Response to a Fire, RIS 2006-010, to verify that the licensee had identified operator manual actions for post-fire SSD in 10 CFR 50, Appendix R section III.G.2 designated areas andhad plans in place to keep NCR 205333 open to assess and track resolution of the manual action issue as part of the plant-wide risk evaluation for transition to NFPA 805.
b. Findings
Inadequate Separation and Protection of CST Level Instrument Cables and EquipmentRequired for SSD in Fire Area G1, FZ 25AIntroduction: The team identified a noncompliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, SectionIII.G.2, for the licensee's failure to ensure that one train of redundant CondensateStorage Tank (CST) level indication was free of fire damage in FA G1, FZ 25A.
Additionally, the team identified the lack of full area coverage of automatic fire detection and suppression systems for Fire Area G1. The violation meets the criteria of NRC Enforcement Policy, "Interim Enforcement Policy Regarding Enforcement Discretion for Certain Fire Protection Issues (10 CFR 50.48)" for enforcement discretion.Description: For a fire in FA G1, FZ 25A, procedure DSP-015, "Hot Shutdown From theControl Room with a Fire in the Turbine Building," would be utilized to safely shutdown the plant from the MCR. Step 35 directs the operator to check CST level less than 10%.
The licensee's SSA credits instrument LT-1454A, CST level indication, as being available to the operators in the MCR for a fire in FA G1, FZ 25A. This provides an indication to the operators of when to align Service Water (SW) backup to Auxiliary 6Feedwater (AFW) water supply. This alternate alignment needs to be performedbecause the inventory in the CST could be depleted in approximately 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. The team identified that instrument LT-1454A was not protected for a fire in FA G1, FZ 25A and would not be available as specified in operator response procedure DSP-015.Once this issue was identified, it was entered into the licensee's corrective actionprogram (CAP) as NCR 00252232. Compensatory measures were put in place prior to the inspectors leaving the site. DSP-015 was later revised to align SW backup to AFW water supply 105 minutes into the event if CST level indication is not available.Additionally, the team identified the lack of full area coverage of automatic fire detectionand suppression systems for FA G1, Turbine Building, Fire Zones 25 A, B, C, E, F, and G. In Supplemental Safety Evaluation Report (SSER) dated September, 17, 1986, the NRC granted the licensee an exemption from the technical requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix R Section III.G.3, for six FZs located in this FA where fire detection and fixedsuppression systems had not been installed throughout the area under consideration.
Each of the fire zones under consideration at that time (1986) contained redundant trains of normal safe shutdown systems; however, alternative safe shutdown capability electrically independent from the zones would be available to be used to achieve and maintain safe shutdown.In a letter dated May 31, 2001, Carolina Power and Light (CP&L) notified the NRC thatthe completion of an analysis in 1998, had resulted in re-designation of Fire Area G1 from a 10 CFR 50, Appendix R Section III.G.3 area to Section III.G.2 area. Consequently, NRC-granted exemptions to 10 CFR 50, Appendix R Section III.G.3,were no longer necessary for the re-designated areas which now met the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix R Section III.G.2. The inspectors' review of the licencee'ssafety evaluation screening associated with the plant area re-designation (ESR 00-00042, Revision 0) found that the licensee reviewers inappropriately determined that no new exemptions were required to satisfy Appendix R requirements. In a letter dated September 5, 2001, the NRC acknowledged the intent of the May 31, 2001 CP&L letter to share review findings. According to CP&L, HBR2 were now in compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2 and no additional licensing action was anticipatedfrom NRC. During walk downs of Fire Area G1, the team identified that Fire Zones 25B, C, E, F,and G of the Turbine Building lacked full area fire detection and automatic fire suppression. A portion of Fire Zone 25A had fire detection located on a suspended ceiling but, no automatic fire suppression was installed within this area. This portion of Fire Zone 25A is the Radiologically Controlled Area Entry during plant outages but is utilized as a security operations and locker area during normal plant operation. A large portion of FA G1 lacked full area automatic fire detection and automatic fire suppression capability as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2, nor had the licenseerequested exemptions from any technical requirements of the fire protection rule. This issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as NCR 252199.Analysis: The finding is a performance deficiency because the licensee failed to ensurethat one train of systems was free of fire damage in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2. The finding is more than minor because it is associated 7with the external factors attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone, i.e., fire, and itaffects the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding was given a high degradation rating because the SSD analysis was incomplete.
The SDP Phase 1 analysis concluded that a Phase 2 analysis was required. The team performed walkdown inspections of the affected instrument in Fire Area G1 and looked for possible ignition sources (both fixed and transient) that could damage the target cables in accordance with the zone of influence charts given in Tables 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Appendix F. The team excluded those ignition sources that fell outside the zone of influence for the target cables. The lack of full area coverage of automatic fire detection and suppression systems for FA G1 was taken into account in the analysis. Since instrument LT-1454A fails low on a loss of power, a hot short would be needed in order to cause it to fail high. Based on the low fire ignition frequency of the sources within the zone of influence and the probability of spurious actuation, the team concluded that this issue would not be associated with a finding of high safety significance (Red).
Enforcement:
10 CFR 50.48(b)(2) requires, in part, that all nuclear power plants licensedto operate prior to January 1, 1979, must satisfy the applicable requirements of Appendix R to this part, including specifically the requirements of Sections III.G., III.J,and III.O. Specifically, 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2 states in part that one ofthe following means of ensuring that one of the redundant trains is free of fire damage:
separation by having a 3-hour fire barrier, or 20 feet of horizontal separation with no intervening combustibles with fire detectors and an automatic fire suppression system, or an enclosure having a 1-hour rating with fire detectors and an automatic fire suppression system. Contrary to the above, on October 26, 2007, the inspectors identified that level instrument LT-1454A was not ensured to be free of fire damage in FA G1, FZ 25A in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2. As aconsequence, a fire-induced failure of LT-1454A could result in the CST reaching a level below the adequate point of Net-Positive Suction Head (NPSH) of the AFW pump.
Additionally, CST inventory could be depleted in approximately 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. This issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as NCRs 252232 and 252199.No enforcement action is required for the above noncompliance because pursuant tothe Commission's Enforcement Policy and NRC Manual Chapter 0305, under certain conditions fire protection findings at nuclear power plants that transition their licensing bases to 10 CFR 50.48(c) are eligible for enforcement and reactor oversight process (ROP) discretion. The Enforcement Policy and ROP also state that the finding must not be evaluated as Red. Because the licensee committed, prior to December 31, 2005, to adopt NFPA 805 andchange their fire protection licensing bases to comply with 10 CFR 50.48(c), the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion for this issue in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, "Interim Enforcement Policy Regarding Enforcement Discretion for Certain Fire Protection Issues (10 CFR 50.48)." Specifically, this issue would have been expected to be identified and addressed during the licensee's transition to NFPA 805, it was entered into the licensee's corrective action program, was not likely to have been previously identified by routine licensee efforts, was not willful, and was not associated with a finding of high safety significance.
8.02Protection of Safe Shutdown Capabilities
a. Inspection Scope
For the selected FA/FZs, the team evaluated the potential for fires, the combustible fireload characteristics, and the potential exposure fire severity. The team reviewed the HBR2 Fire Protection Manual, OMM-002, the UFSAR, Appendix 9.5.1A, the FHA and selected plant administrative procedures which established and implemented controls and practices to prevent fires and to control the storage of permanent and transient combustible materials and ignition sources. This review was performed to ensure that the objectives established by the NRC-approved FPP were satisfied. The team also reviewed selected licensee fire incident reports, combustible tracking logs, maintenance procedures, housekeeping inspection reports, and general employee training covering control of ignition sources and transient combustibles. These reviews were accomplished to ensure that the licensee had properly evaluated in-situ combustible fire loads, controlled hot-work activities, and limited transient fire hazards in a manner consistent with the plant administrative and FPP procedures. Additionally, the team toured the selected plant FA/FZs to observe whether programmatic procedures for limiting fire hazards, waste collection, housekeeping practices, and cleanliness conditions were being implemented consistent with the updated UFSAR, administrative procedures, and other FPP procedures. The specific documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified..03 Passive Fire Protection
a. Inspection Scope
For the selected FA/FZs, the team evaluated the adequacy of fire barrier walls, ceilings,floors, exterior roofing material, mechanical and electrical penetration seals, fire doors, fire dampers, and an electrical raceway fire barrier system (ERFBS). The team compared the installed configurations to the approved construction details, and supporting fire endurance test data, which established the ratings of fire barriers. The team also reviewed licensee evaluations of the non-standard fire barrier penetration seals for each of the selected FA/FZs. In addition, the team reviewed licensing bases documentation, such as NRC Safety Evaluation Reports (SERs) and deviations from NRC regulations, to verify that passive fire protection features met license commitments.The team walked down accessible portions of the selected FA/FZs to observe materialcondition and the design adequacy of fire area boundaries to assess if they were appropriate for the fire hazards in the area. The team reviewed the installation, repair, and qualification records for a sample of penetration seals to ensure the seal material was of the appropriate fire rating. Additionally, the team reviewed that the as-built configurations met the engineering design, standard industry practices, and were either properly evaluated or qualified by appropriate fire endurance tests. Engineering change documentation, and relevant installation and test qualification records related to 3M 9Interam ERFBS installed for protection of SSD circuits in the Component Cooling Water(CCW) pump room (FZ 5) were reviewed. This was accomplished to verify that the selected ERFBS met its design and licensing basis. In addition, a sample of completed surveillance and maintenance procedures for selected fire doors, fire dampers, and penetration seals were reviewed to ensure that these passive fire barrier features were properly inspected and maintained. The fire protection features included in the review are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified..04Active Fire Protection
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the fire protection water supply system, operational valve lineups,cable routing information, and system availability associated with the electric motor-driven fire pump and the diesel engine-driven fire pump. Using operating and valve alignment procedures, team members toured selected fire pumps and portions of the fire main piping system to evaluate material condition, consistency of as-built configurations with engineering drawings, and to verify correct system valve lineups.
The common fire protection water delivery and supply components were reviewed to assess if they could be damaged or inhibited by fire-induced failures of electrical power supplies or control circuits. In addition, the team reviewed periodic surveillance and operability flow test data for the fire pumps and fire main loop to assess whether the test program was sufficient to validate proper operation of the fire protection water supply system in accordance with its design requirements. The team reviewed the fire detection system protecting the FA/FZs selected for reviewto assess the adequacy of the design and installation. This was accomplished by reviewing cable routing information, design drawings, ceiling beam location drawings, ceiling beam schedule drawings and NFPA 72E (code of record 1974 edition) for detector location requirements. The team also reviewed license documentation, such as NRC SERs and deviations from NRC regulations, to verify that active fire protection features met license commitments. The inspectors walked down the fire detection and alarm systems in the selected FA/FZs to evaluate the appropriateness of detection methods for the category of fire hazards in the areas relative to the NFPA 72E location requirements. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the surveillance test procedures for the detection and alarm systems to determine compliance with UFSAR Section 9.5.1 and procedure FP-012, Fire Protection Systems and Minimum Equipment and Compensatory Actions, Rev. 11.Fire hose and standpipe systems were evaluated from source to discharge deviceincluding NFPA 14 code compliance calculations performed by the licensee to demonstrate adequate flow, pressure, and water distribution. During plant tours, the team observed placement of the fire hoses and extinguishers to verify they were not blocked and were consistent with the fire fighting pre-plan strategies and FPP documents.
10The team reviewed the fire brigade staging and dress-out areas to assess theoperational readiness of fire fighting and smoke control equipment. The fire brigade personal protective equipment, self-contained breathing apparatuses (SCBAs) and SCBA cylinder refill capability were reviewed for adequacy and functionality. The team also reviewed operator and fire brigade staffing, fire brigade response reports, offsite fire department communications and staging procedures, fire fighting pre-plan strategies, fire brigade qualification training, and the fire brigade drill program procedures. Ten fire brigade response-to-drill scenarios and associated brigade drill evaluations/critiques that transpired over the last 12 months were reviewed.The team reviewed the fire fighting pre-plan strategies for the selected FA/FZs and fireresponse procedures to verify that pertinent information was provided to fire brigade members to identify potential effects to plant and personnel safety, and to facilitate suppression of an exposure fire that could impact SSD capability. The team walked down the selected FA/FZs to compare the associated fire fighting pre-plan strategy drawings with as-built plant conditions and fire response procedures. This was done to verify that fire fighting pre-plan strategies and drawings were consistent with the fire protection features and potential fire conditions described in the FHA. The team also evaluated whether the fire response procedures and fire fighting pre-plan strategies for the selected FA/FZs could be implemented as intended. The documents included in the reviews are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified..05Protection From Damage From Fire Suppression Activities
a. Inspection Scope
The team performed document reviews for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning(HVAC) system drawings, configuration drawings for electrical raceways and safe shutdown components, building drain system drawings, and conducted in-plant walkdowns to verify that redundant trains of systems required for hot shutdown, where located in the same FA/FZ, were not subject to damage from fire suppression activities, or from the rupture or inadvertent operation of fire suppression systems. The team considered the effects of water, drainage, heat, hot gasses, and smoke that could potentially damage all redundant SSD trains, inhibit access to alternate shutdown equipment or performance of dedicated safe shutdown operator actions. The documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
11.06Post-Fire Safe Shutdown From Outside the Main Control Room (Dedicated Shutdown)
a. Inspection Scope
MethodologyThe team reviewed the licensee's FPP as described in UFSAR Section 9.5.1, the SSA,DSPs, P&IDs, electrical drawings, and other supporting documents for postulated fires in FA A5, FZs 22 and 23. The reviews focused on ensuring that the required functions for post-fire SSD and the corresponding equipment necessary to perform those functions were included in the procedures. The review included assessing whether hot and cold shutdown from outside the MCR could be implemented, and that transfer of control from the MCR to the dedicated shutdown control stations could be accomplished. This review also included verification that shutdown from outside the MCR could be performed both with and without the availability of offsite power. Plant walkdowns were performed to verify that the plant configuration was consistentwith that described in the SSA. These inspection activities focused on ensuring the adequacy of systems selected for reactivity control, reactor coolant makeup, reactor heat removal, process monitoring instrumentation and support systems functions. The team reviewed the systems and components credited for use during this shutdown method to verify that they would remain free from fire damage. Operational ImplementationThe team reviewed the training lesson plans for licensed and non-licensed operators toverify that the training reinforced the shutdown methodology in the SSA and DSPs for the selected FAs. The team also reviewed shift turnover logs and shift manning to verify that personnel required for SSD using the alternative shutdown systems and procedures were available on-site, exclusive of those assigned as fire brigade members. The team reviewed the adequacy of procedures utilized for post-fire SSD and performeda walk-through of procedure steps to ensure the implementation and human factors adequacy of the procedures. The team also reviewed selected operator actions to verify that the operators could reasonably be expected to perform the specific actions within the time required to maintain plant parameters within specified limits. Time critical actions reviewed included: electrical power distribution alignment,establishing control at the dedicated shutdown control stations, establishing reactor coolant makeup, and establishing decay heat removal. The team reviewed and walked down applicable sections of the following fire response procedures:*DSP-001, Alternate Shutdown Diagnostic*DSP-002, Hot Shutdown Using the Dedicated/Alternate Shutdown SystemThe team also reviewed the periodic test procedures and test records of the alternativeshutdown transfer capability, and instrumentation and control functions, to ensure the tests were adequate to verify the functionality of the alternative shutdown capability.
12Electrical schematics were reviewed to verify that circuits for SSD equipment, whichcould be damaged due to fire, were isolated by disconnect switches and by swapping power supplies for selected Motor Control Centers (MCCs). In addition, the team reviewed wiring diagrams for instrumentation located on the dedicated shutdown control stations to verify that necessary process monitoring was available as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.L.
b. Findings
Operator Actions During Performance of DSP-002 did not Provide Sufficient Direction toEnsure that the DS Bus Remains Energized.Introduction: The team identified a noncompliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, SectionIII.L.3 for the licensee's failure to ensure that the Dedicated Shutdown (DS) Bus remains energized for a postulated fire in FA A5, FZ 22. The violation meets the criteria of NRC Enforcement Policy, "Interim Enforcement Policy Regarding Enforcement Discretion for Certain Fire Protection Issues (10 CFR 50.48)" for enforcement discretion.Description: For a fire in FA A5, FZ 22, procedure DSP-002, "Hot Shutdown Using theDedicated/Alternate Shutdown System," would be utilized to safely shutdown the plant from the dedicated shutdown control stations. Step 4 of DSP-002 dispatches an operator to energize the DS Bus by performing Attachment 9. Step 2 of the attachment directs the operator to determine if the DS Bus is energized by offsite power. If the DS Bus is de-energized, then the operator is directed to energize the DS Bus by the Dedicated Shutdown Diesel Generator (DSDG). If the DS Bus is energized by offsite power, then the operator is directed to de-energize 4kV buses 1, 2 and 4 and 480V Bus 3 and then close the alternate feed to MCC-5. At this point in the procedure, performance of Attachment 9 would be complete and the operator would be free to leave the area and assist other operators. The team determined that if a loss of offsite power occurred subsequent to the performance of Attachment 9, there was no continuing procedural guidance directing the operators to later energize the DS Bus with the DSDG. This issue was further complicated because there would be no indication of the subsequent loss of offsite power to the operators absent someone checking the status of offsite power on the Ds bus.Analysis: This issue is a performance deficiency because the licensee did not providesufficient direction to the operators to ensure that the DS Bus remains energized for a fire in FA A5, FZ 22. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and it affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors assessed the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection SDP. The finding was assigned a high degradation rating because the dedicated shutdown procedure did not provide sufficient guidance to the operators. The SDP Phase 1 analysis concluded that a Phase 2 analysis was required. Based on the fire ignition frequency of the MCR cabinets, the probability of spurious actuations, and the probability of suppression (the MCR is staffed continuously), the team concluded that this item would not be associated with a finding of high safety significance (Red).
13Enforcement: 10 CFR 50.48(b)(2) requires, in part, that all nuclear power plants licensedto operate prior to January 1, 1979, must satisfy the applicable requirements of Appendix R to this part, including specifically the requirements of Sections III.G, III.J,and III.O. Compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.L is considerednecessary in order to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.Section III.L.3 states in part that the alternative shutdown capability shall be independentof the specific fire areas and shall accommodate post-fire conditions where offsite power is available and when offsite power is not available for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, and that procedures shall be in effect to implement this capability. Contrary to the above, on November 9, 2007, the inspectors identified that DSP-002 did not provide sufficient direction to theoperators to ensure that the DS bus remains energized to accommodate post-fire conditions where offsite power is available and when offsite power is not initially available but later lost for a fire in FA A5, FZ 22. This issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as NCR 252018 and corrected prior to the inspectors leaving the site.
DSP-002 was revised to stage an operator in the 4160V room to monitor the DS Bus voltage until the fire is out and the fire damage has been assessed.No enforcement action is required for the above noncompliance because pursuant tothe Commission's Enforcement Policy and NRC Manual Chapter 0305, under certain conditions fire protection findings at nuclear power plants that transition their licensing bases to 10 CFR 50.48(c) are eligible for enforcement and reactor oversight process (ROP) discretion. The Enforcement Policy and ROP also state that the finding must not be evaluated as Red. Because the licensee committed, prior to December 31, 2005, to adopt NFPA 805 andchange their fire protection licensing bases to comply with 10 CFR 50.48(c), the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion for this issue in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, "Interim Enforcement Policy Regarding Enforcement Discretion for Certain Fire Protection Issues (10 CFR 50.48)." Specifically, this issue would have been expected to be identified and addressed during the licensee's transition to NFPA 805, it was entered into the licensee's corrective action program and corrected, was not likely to have been previously identified by routine licensee efforts, was not willful, and was not associated with a finding of high safety significance.
.07 Circuit Analyses
a. Inspection Scope
This segment is suspended for plants in transition because a more detailed review ofcable routing and circuit analysis will be conducted as part of the fire protection program transition to NFPA 805. However, a review of the licensee's preliminary cable routing information was used by the team to assess the adequacy of the licensee's fire response procedures in the selected fire areas. The routing information was based upon a list of safe shutdown components submitted by the inspectors.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
14.08Communications
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the plant communications systems that would be relied upon tosupport safe shutdown, fire event notification, and fire brigade fire fighting activities.
The team observed a radio check with the dedicated shutdown radios and fire brigade radios to ensure operability without use of the repeater. The team also reviewed selected fire brigade drill evaluation/critique reports to assess proper operation and effectiveness of the fire brigade command post portable radio communications during fire drills and to identify any history of operational or performance problems with radio communications during fire drills. In addition, the team verified the radio battery usage ratings for the fire brigade radios stored and maintained on charging stations.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified..09Emergency Lighting
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the adequacy of the emergency lighting units (ELUs) used tosupport plant personnel during post-fire safe shutdown for the selected FAs. The team performed plant walkdowns and observed the placement and coverage area of fixed 8-hour battery pack emergency lights throughout the selected FAs to evaluate their adequacy for illuminating access and egress pathways and any equipment requiring local operation and/or instrumentation monitoring for post-fire SSD. The team observed a test verification of the emergency lighting adequacy in the battery room and Auxiliary Building lower hallway. The team reviewed completed test records of ELU battery 8-hour capacity tests to ensure that they were sized, tested, and maintained consistent with vendor guidance, license requirements, and licensee commitments. The specific documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.The team observed whether emergency exit lighting was provided for personnelevacuation pathways to the outside exits as identified in the NFPA 101, Life Safety Code, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Part 1910, Occupational Safety and Health Standards. This review also included examination ofwhether backup ELUs were provided for the primary and secondary fire emergency equipment storage locker locations and dress-out areas in support of fire brigade operations should power fail during a fire emergency.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
15.10Cold Shutdown Repairs
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the licensee's SSA to determine if any repairs were necessary toachieve cold shutdown. Dedicated Shutdown Procedures DSP-008 through DSP-013, describe methods for repairing equipment, following a fire, needed to bring the Unit from hot standby to cold shutdown. The team inspected the fire damage repair kits and inventoried their contents in accordance with station procedure OST-922, Dedicated Shutdown Equipment Identification Audit, and verified that repair kits necessary to restore the Residual Heat Removal pumps along with their associated indications, aswell as the remote operation of the Pressurizer Power Operated Relief Valves, and bulk cable reels were tagged and stored on-site for the sole purpose of damage control measures. The team also reviewed calibration test records for the temporary instrumentation used in conjunction with the damage control procedures.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.11 Compensatory Measures
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the administrative controls for out-of-service, degraded, and/orinoperable fire protection features (e.g., detection and suppression systems and equipment, passive fire barriers, or pumps, valves or electrical devices providing SSD functions or capabilities). The team reviewed selected items on the fire protection impairment log and compared them with the FAs/FZs selected for inspection. The compensatory measures that had been established in these areas/zones were compared to those specified for the applicable fire protection feature to verify that the risk associated with removing the fire protection feature from service was properly assessed and adequate compensatory measures were implemented in accordance with the approved FPP. Additionally, the team reviewed the licensee's short term compensatory measures (compensatory fire watches) to verify that they were adequate to compensate for a degraded function or feature until appropriate corrective action could be taken, and that the licensee was effective in returning the equipment to service in a reasonable period of time.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
OTHER ACTIVITIES
4OA2Identification and Resolution of Problems
a. Inspection Scope
NCRs related to the HBR2 FPP, and the capability to successfully achieve and maintainthe plant in a SSD condition following a plant fire, as well as selected fire brigade response, emergency / incidents, and fire safety inspection reports were reviewed. This review was conducted to assess the frequency of fire incidents and effectiveness of the fire prevention program and any maintenance-related or material condition problems related to fire incidents.The team also reviewed other CAP documents, including completed corrective actionsdocumented in selected NCRs, and operating experience program (OEP) documents to verify that industry-identified fire protection problems potentially or actually affecting HBR2 were appropriately entered into, and resolved by, the CAP process. Items included in the OEP effectiveness review were NRC Regulatory Issue Summaries (RISs), Information Notices (INs), Generic Letters (GL), industry or vendor-generated reports of defects and noncompliance under 10 CFR Part 21, and vendor information letters. In addition, the inspectors reviewed a sample of the FPP audits which the licensee performed in the previous one-year period to assess the types of findings that were generated and that the findings were appropriately entered into the licensee's CAP.
The inspectors evaluated the effectiveness of the corrective actions for a sample of identified issues. The documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified. 4OA5Other ActivitiesNRC GL 2006-03, Potentially Nonconforming Heymc and MT Fire Barrier ConfigurationsThis inspection and generic issue review concerns GL 2006-03 (ADAMS Accession No.ML053620142) issued on April 10, 2006, which identified the potential inadequacy (thermal failure) of Hemyc and MT ERFBS for protection of electrical and instrumentation cables and equipment that provide safe shutdown capability during a fire. On June 8, 2006 Progress Energy Carolinas submitted to the NRC a response letter to GL 2006-03 for HBR2 (ADAMS Accession No. ML061640136). The submitted documentation indicated that HBR2 had utilized Hemyc ERFBS wrap to protect power cables to the "A" and "C" CCW pumps in FA C, FZ 5 but was replacing this wrap with a new ERFBS to provide a one-hour fire rating. The team's review of the newly installed 3M Interam ERFBS for protection of SSD circuits in the CCW pump room is discussed in section 1R.05 of this report. In addition, the team conducted on-site and in-office review of the significance of potential credible fires that could have affected the previously installed Heymc ERFBS. The inspectors reviewed CAP documents and 17engineering change documents associated with the Heymc ERFBS replacement. Theinspectors also reviewed the licensee's safety significance analysis for the replaced Hemyc with consideration for the fire loading characteristics and automatic fire detection and suppression system design. The team determined that this generic issue had very low safety significance and had not presented an immediate safety concern because the affected FZ had installed automatic fire detection and suppression systems that would likely detect and control an exposure fire prior to it breaching the previous Heymc fire wrap enclosures. Any further evaluation of this issue will be conducted pursuant to review of the licensee's GL 2006-03 response and subsequent license amendment approval.
4OA6 Meetings, Including ExitOn November 9, 2007, the lead inspector presented the inspection results to Mr. T. Waltand other members of his staff.
The licensee acknowledged the findings. Proprietary information is not included in this report. ATTACHMENT:
