Title | Failure to Identify and Evaluate All Targets Within the Zone of Influence of Ignition Sources |
Description | The NRC identified a violation of 10 CFR 50.48(c) for the licensees failure to address in the Fire Probabilistic Risk Assessment (Fire PRA) the risk contribution associated with all potentially risk significant fire scenarios for a given fire compartment/fire area. The licensee did not identify and evaluate all targets that were within the zone of influence (ZOI) of ignition sources for selected fire scenarios that could potentially contribute to the risk for the fire scenarios. The licensee entered the issue in the corrective action program (CAP) as Condition Reports (CRs) 1195603 and 1197392. The affected area was already covered by an hourly roving fire watch as a compensatory measure. The licensees failure to address the risk contribution associated with all potentially risksignificant fire scenarios, as required by section 2.4.3.2 of NFPA 805, was a performance deficiency. For each example, the performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the reactor safety mitigating systems cornerstone attribute of protection against external factors (i.e., fire) and it adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee failed to analyze the full risk impact of the selected fire scenarios, and the missed targets in the ZOI for the selected fire scenarios had the potential to impact the ability to achieve safe and stable conditions. Using IMC 0609, Appendix F, Attachment 1, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process Worksheet, the finding was screened as Green in step 1.6.1 Screen by Licensee PRA-Based Safety Evaluation. There was no cross cutting aspect assigned to this finding because it was not indicative of current licensee performance since the original ignition source and target walkdowns were performed more than 3 years ago.
