| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | Title 10 CFR 50.48 requires, in part, that licensees must have a fire protection plan that satisfies Criterion 3 of Appendix A of 10 CFR Part 50. Condition 2.C.(4) of the Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS) License Number DPR-46 states, in part, that the licensee shall implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) and as approved in the Safety Evaluation dated November 29, 1977, and subsequent supplements. Chapter 9 of the USAR, Fire Protection System, provides a summary description of the SSCs that are relied on to meet the requirements of General Design Criterion 3, Fire Protection, in 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix A. USAR Section 9.3.2.6 states that the Service Water Pump Room is protected by an automatic Halon 1301 fire suppression system. USAR Section 9.6 states that the limiting conditions for operation and surveillance requirements for the Fire Protection System are provided in the CNS Technical Requirements Manual (TRM). TRM T 3.11.5, Halon 1301 Fire Suppression System, requires that a continuous fire watch be established if the Halon 1301 system in the Service Water Pump Room is inoperable. CNS Administrative Procedure (AP) 0.39.1, Fire Watches and Fire Impairments, Revision 9, Paragraph 5.1.8, Responsibilities of Compensatory Continuous Fire Watches, stated, in part, that Fire Watch shall observe the..Affected Area and be alert for signs of fire, smoke, and changing conditions. Contrary to the requirement in CNS AP 0.39.1, Paragraph 5.1.8, on December 5, 2012, an individual assigned to fire watch duty to observe the Affected Area was deliberately not alert for signs of fire, smoke, and changing conditions. Specifically, an individual assigned to continuous fire watch duty in the Service Water Pump Room, while the Halon 1301 system was inoperable, was found by a non-licensed operator to be inattentive. This caused the licensee to be in violation of License Condition 2.C.(4) of License No. DPR
46. The licensee identified the violation, performed an internal investigation, and took appropriate corrective actions. This included entering this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-CNS-2012-10123 for resolution. These corrective actions were completed on December 24, 2012.
