| Title | Failure to Properly Implement Fire Door Inspections |
| Description | An NRC-identified Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical Specifications (TS) 5.4.1.d, Procedures, was identified for the licensees failure to correctly verify fire door gaps at the strike plate area and between meeting edges of double swinging metal doors were within acceptable limits. The licensee initiated hourly roving fire watches for these fire doors and took corrective maintenance action to restore affected fire doors within limits. The licensee documented this condition in condition reports 10254221 and 10252774. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Hazards (i.e. fire) and adversely affected the cornerstone objective in that door gaps outside the required limits compromised the doors fire rating qualification. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (i.e. Green) because either the combustible loading on both sides of each door was representative of a fire duration of less than 1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> or each door maintained at least a 1-hour fire endurance rating. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Training in the Human Performance area because the licensee did not ensure there was adequate training to properly inspect station fire doors (H.9). |
