The inspectors identified a non-cited violation (
NCV) of
Technical Specification (TS) 5.4.1, which requires that written procedures be implemented covering the Fire Protection Program. The Fire Drill Performance procedure was inadequately implemented because numerous fire brigade deficiencies were not discussed at the post-drill critique or documented in the fire drill record. The licensee has entered this problem into their
CAP for action. This finding is more than minor because it affects the impairment or degradation of a fire protection feature, specifically, on the ability of the fire brigade to effectively carry out the defense-in-depth attribute of manual fire fighting and is associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and its respective attribute of human performance. This finding is of very low safety significance because the observed crew was only one of five crews of the site fire brigade team, the other crews had no known problems, and the overall condition of the fire detection and suppression systems had been satisfactory. The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution because Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station personnel did not properly identify and assess deficiencies with the fire brigades performance.
