Title | Inaccessible fire hose station in the cable spreading room |
Description | An NRC-identified NCV of Hatch Unit 1 operating license condition 2.C.(3) and Hatch Unit 2 operating license condition 2.C.(3)(a), Fire Protection, was identified for failure to maintain fire hose station HS-C20 operable while equipment in the area was required to be operable. Hose station HS-C20 was determined to be inaccessible to the fire brigade. Immediate corrective actions taken by the licensee included performing a fire protection alternate compensatory measures evaluation, (as required by Fire Hazards Analysis section 9.2,specification 1.6.1 action a), which resulted in staging an additional 100 feet of hose at hose station, HS-C21, located just outside of the cable spread room. This violation was entered into the licensees corrective action program as CR 2011100783. Failure to ensure the accessibility and thus operability of HS-C20 or take required compensatory action in accordance with Fire Hazards Analysis Section 9.2 Appendix B Specification 1.6.1 is a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor because it adversely affected the protection against external events (fire) attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability and reliability of systems (safety related cable spreading room cabling) that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. This violation was assessed using the Phase 1 screening worksheets of Attachment 4 and Appendix F of IMC 0609. The inspectors performed an initial qualitative screening and determined the inoperability of HS-C20 was a low degradation violation against the fire protection program. The cable spreading room fire area contains full preaction sprinkler coverage and a manual carbon dioxide flooding system. Additionally, a manual hose station and fire extinguishers are located outside the primary access doors to the cable spreading room. Based on the low degradation of the fire protection program, this violation was screened as Green. The inspectors determined this performance deficiency had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution under the Corrective Action Program component because the licensee did not appropriately identify the long standing issue of the inaccessibility of HS-C20 during monthly surveillance testing. |
