a Mr. James P.

O'Reilly LER No.82-009 Page Three October 2 6, 1982 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EVENT Per Technical Specification 4.7.10.2.(c), the verification of all locked closed fire doors is required to be conducted at least once every seven (7) days.

Surveillance Test Procedure (STP) 128.017,

" Weekly Inspection of Locked Closed Fire Doors," covers this requirement and was due to be performed on September 26, 1982.

Instead, STP-128.007, "CO2 System Lineup Verification," was performed.

The error was discovered on September 29, 1982, thus violating the 1.25 surveillance tolerance limit per Technical Specification 4.0.2.(b).

STP-128.017 was then performed.

PROBABLE CONSEQUENCES OF THE EVENT There were no adverse consequences as a result of this event.

When the correct STP (128.017) was performed on September 29, 1982, the fire rated doors were all found to be in the locked closed position as required.

Also, the Station was in the Action Statement of Technical Specification 3.7.10, as amended, for inoperable fire barriers during the time of this event.

Technical Specification 3.7.10 (amended) allowed the roving one hour fire watch patrol; therefore, it can be reasonably assured that had a fire occurred in the areas in question, it would have been detected in its early stages and promptly brought under control.

CAUSE(S) OF THE OCCURRENCE The cause is attributed to a personnel / numerical oversight.

Personnel assigned to the surveillance item performed the wrong Surtreillance Test Procedure.

IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION

STP-128.017 was performed on September 29, 1982.

All of the affected fire rated doors were found to be in the locked closed position as required.

The doors which have alarm supervision were checked and verified that no alarns had been triggered during the surveillance requirement time lapse.

ACTION TAKEN TO PREVENT RECURRENCE Operations personnel involved in surveillance testing have been instructed to verify scheduled surveillance tests they are performing both by identification number and name.
