| Title | Failure to Control Transient Combustibles in Accordance with the Approved Fire Protection Program |
| Description | The inspectors identified an NCV of the license condition 2.K. when Entergy failed to properly control transient combustibles within the Unit 2 control room envelope in accordance with the approved fire protection program (FPP). The inspectors identified transient combustible material in excess of the specified limits that were unattended and without a transient combustible evaluation (TCE). The inspectors notified Entergy personnel of the deficiency, the transient combustibles were promptly removed, and the issue was entered into the corrective action program (CAP) as condition report (CR)-IP2-2015-1058. The inspectors determined that the failure to properly control transient combustible material in accordance with the approved FPP was a performance deficiency. This finding was determined to be more than minor because it is associated with the protection against external factors attribute of the Initiating Events cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during power operations. In accordance with IMC 0609.04, Phase 1 Initial Characterization of Findings, the inspectors determined that the finding affected the administrative controls for transient combustible materials. The inspectors conducted a Phase 1 SDP screening using IMC 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, and assigned the finding to the Fire Prevention and Administrative Controls category; in that, it affected Entergys combustible materials control. The finding was determined to be Green, or very low safety significance, after IMC 0609, Appendix F. question 1.3.1, Is the reactor able to reach and maintain safe shutdown (hot or cold) condition, was answered yes. The inspectors assumed that any fire in the area associated with the combustibles observed would be promptly extinguished using readily available extinguishing equipment and that no safety-related equipment would be disabled. The inspectors determined that this finding had a Human Performance, Procedure Adherence, cross-cutting aspect because Entergy failed to properly control transient combustible material in accordance with the approved FPP when the allowed limits were exceeded without an evaluation [H.8]. |
