| Title | Failure to identify conditions adverse to fire protection |
| Description | The team identified a non-cited violation of License Condition 2.C.9 for the failure to identify conditions adverse to the fire protection program, as required by Procedure UNT-005-013, Fire Protection Program, Revision 10. Specifically, during required inspections of the material condition of the sprinkler system, the licensee failed to identify several instances of either bent or misaligned sprinkler head deflector plates, which were not protected as required by National Fire Protection Association 13-1976, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems. The failure to identify a condition adverse to fire protection was a performance deficiency. This deficiency was more than minor since, if left uncorrected, the finding would become a more significant safety concern in that the number of damaged sprinklers would continue to increase. The team evaluated the significance of this finding using Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process. The deficiency involved the Fixed Fire Protection Systems category. Using Appendix F, Attachment 2, Degradation Rating Guidance Specific to Various Fire Protection Program Elements, the team determined that the deficiency had low degradation since less than 10 percent of the heads in the affected fire area were nonfunctional, a functional head remained within 10 feet of the combustibles of concern, and the system remained nominally code compliant. This finding screened as having very low safety significance (Green) in Phase 1. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with resources because the procedure used to inspect the condition of these sprinklers did not contain specific criteria for identifying unacceptable sprinkler conditions H.2(c) |
