TR 16.7-9-22 Verify flowpath from the reactor vessel head through the 18 months valves powered from the SSS is unobstructed.

BASES The SSS is designed to mitigate the consequences of certain postulated fire, security, and station blackout incidents by providing capability to maintain MODE 3 conditions and by controlling and monitoring vital systems from locations external to the main control room. This capability is consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.48(c).

The TESTING REQUIREMENTS ensure that the SSS systems and components are capable of performing their intended functions. The required level in the SSS diesel generator fuel storage tank ensures sufficient fuel for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> uninterrupted operation. It is assumed that, within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, either offsite power can be restored or additional fuel can be added to the storage tank.

Although the standby makeup pump is not nuclear safety related and was not designed according to ASME Code requirements, it is tested quarterly to ensure its FUNCTIONALITY. The TESTING REQUIREMENT concerning the standby makeup pump water supply ensures that an adequate water volume is available to supply the pump continuously for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.

Total accumulative LEAKAGE is calculated in the NC System Leakage Calculation procedure as identified + unidentified + seal leakoff (References 2 and 3). The REMEDIAL ACTION limit of 20 gpm total accumulative LEAKAGE provides additional margin to allow for instrument inaccuracy, and for the predicted increase in seal leakoff rate due to heatup of the reactor coolant pump seal injection water supply temperature following the SSS event (due to spent fuel pool heatup).

Following the increase in seal injection temperature, the standby makeup pump flow of 26 gpm is sufficient to provide in excess of this total accumulative LEAKAGE, thereby assuring that reactor coolant system inventory is maintained at MODE 3 conditions. The supporting evaluation

SSS 16.7-9 BASES (continued) is provided in CNC-1223.04-00-0072 (Ref. 4).

A visual inspection of the diesel starting 24-volt batteries, cell plates, and battery racks provides an indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration that could potentially degrade battery performance. Since the battery cell jars are not transparent, a direct visual inspection of the cell plates cannot be performed. Instead, the cell plates are inspected for physical damage and abnormal deterioration by: 1) visually inspecting the jar sides of each cell for excessive bowing and/or deformation, and 2) visually inspecting the electrolyte of each cell for abnormal appearance.

Verifying individual cell voltage while on float charge for the SSS diesel starting 24-Volt batteries ensures that each cell is capable of supporting its intended function. Float charge is the condition in which the charger is supplying the continuous charge required to overcome the internal losses of a battery (or battery cell) and maintain the battery (or battery cell) in a fully charged state. The battery cell voltage limit of 1.36 volts is consistent with the nominal design voltage of the battery and is based on the manufacturer's recommended minimum float charge voltage for a fully charged cell with adequate capacity. The battery is designed and sized with a capacity margin sufficient to allow up to one cell per battery bank to be fully degraded with a voltage < 1.36 volts assuming that no cells are jumpered out. The battery sizing calculations account for one degraded cell per battery bank by assuming the degraded cells undergo a worst case polarity reversal during SSS diesel starting.

  • Verification of proper installation of pressurizer insulation ensures that pressurizer heat losses during an SSS event do not exceed the capacity of the pressurizer heaters powered from the SSS.

Testing of the pressurizer heater capacity ensures the full capacity of the heaters is available to maintain a steam bubble in the pressurizer during an SSS event. The acceptance criterion includes an allowance for the voltage drop in the power cables between the SSS and the pressurizer.

Testing of the flowpath from the reactor vessel head to the pressurizer relief tank ensures sufficient flow capacity for reactor coolant inventory control during an SSS event.

Fire Suppression Water System 16.9-1 TESTING REQUIREMENTS (continued)

TEST FREQUENCY TR 16.9-1-7 Cycle each valve in the flow path which is not testable 18 months during plant operation through at least one complete cycle of full travel.

TR 16.9-1-8 Perform a system flow test in accordance with Chapter 8, 3 years Section 16 of the National Fire Protection Association Fire Protection Handbook, 15th Edition.

BASES The FUNCTIONALITY of the Fire Suppression Systems ensures that adequate fire suppression capability is available to confine and extinguish fires occurring in any portion of the facility where safety related equipment is located. The Fire Suppression System consists of the water supply/distribution system, sprinkler systems, fire hose stations, fire hydrants, and C0 2 systems. The collective capability of the Fire Suppression Systems is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety related equipment and is a major element in the facility Fire Protection Program .

  • The intent of COMMITMENT b. is to ensure a FUNCTIONAL flow path from the water source (in this case Lake Wylie), through FUNCTIONAL pumps as required in COMMITMENT a., and through the main header distribution piping - up to and including the branch lines for each sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant required to be FUNCTIONAL per SLCs 16.9-2, 16.9-4, and 16.9-23. When a sectionalizing valve or an isolation valve becomes non-functional, then the fire suppression features (sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) affected must be evaluated and the applicable SLCs entered (16.9-2, 16.9-4, and 16.9-23).

Condition C of this SLC would only apply if a non-functional sectionalizing valve(s) or isolation valve(s) rendered the entire main distribution piping non-functional.

The intent of TR 16.9-1-4 and TR 16.9-1-7 is to ensure the sectionalizing valve (main header valve used to isolate sections of the header) or isolation valve (branch line valve used to isolate specific fire suppression features (sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant)) is operating properly and can be used to achieve isolation when called upon. If a sectionalizing or isolation valve cannot be cycled but is in the correct position ensuring a FUNCTIONAL flow path (fully open) as required by COMMITMENT b., then the associated feature (sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) can be considered FUNCTIONAL. If a sectionalizing or isolation valve cannot be cycled and is in the incorrect

  • Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.9-1-4 Revision 8

Fire Suppression Water System 16.9-1 BASES (continued) position, or its position cannot be determined, thereby not ensuring a FUNCTIONAL flow path (not fully open) as required by COMMITMENT b., then the affected fire suppression feature (sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) must be evaluated and the applicable SLCs entered (16.9-2, 16.9-4, and 16.9-23). If a sectionalizing valve in a loop header (i.e., flow path from two directions) cannot be cycled and it cannot be verified as fully open, then administrative controls may need to be implemented to ensure the available flow path is not isolated.

The ability to demonstrate that the valves in the RF/RY flow path can be cycled is critical to maintaining the system properly. The containment isolation valves (RF389B and RF447B) and the annulus sprinkler system isolation valve (RF457B) are required to be cycled or stroked in accordance with the Catawba lnservice Testing Program. Therefore, credit can be taken for cycling these valves under the IWV program, and they do not need to be cycled annually to meet the SLC criteria.

The proper positioning of RF/RY valves is critical to delivering fire suppression water at the fire source as quickly as possible. The option of increasing or decreasing the frequency of valve position verification allows the ability to optimize plant operational resources. Should an adverse trend develop with RF/RY valve positions, the frequency of verification shall be increased. Similarly, if the RF/RY valve position trends are positive, the frequency of verification could be decreased.

Through programmed trending of RF/RY as found valve positions, the RF/RY System will be maintained at predetermined reliability standards.

The Fire Protection Engineer is responsible for trending and determining verification frequencies based on the following:

Initially the frequency shall be monthly.

Annually review the results of the completed valve position verification procedures.

  • If the results demonstrate that the valves are found in the correct position at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the valve position verification may be decreased from monthly to quarterly or quarterly to semiannually or semiannually to annually as applicable. The frequency shall not be extended beyond annually (plus grace period).
  • If the results demonstrate that the valves are not found in the correct position at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the valve position verification shall be increased from annually to semiannually or semiannually to quarterly or quarterly to monthly as Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.9-1-5 Revision 8

Fire Suppression Water System 16.9-1 applicable. The valve position verification need not be conducted more often than monthly.

BASES (continued)

In the event that portions of the Fire Suppression Systems are non-functional, alternate backup fire fighting equipment is required to be made available in the affected areas until the non-functional equipment is restored to service. When the non-functional fire fighting equipment is intended for use as a backup means of fire suppression, a longer period of time is allowed to provide an alternate means of fire fighting than if the non-functional equipment is the primary means of fire suppression.

In the event the Fire Suppression Water System becomes non-functional, immediate corrective measures must be taken since this system provides the major fire suppression capability of the plant.

Since the requirement for fire suppression pump automatic starting functions is intended to provide a high level of system standby readiness, loss of a primary pressure switch renders its associated main fire pump non-functional. If the primary pressure switch for one of the two required pumps is non-functional, its associated pump is non-functional if not placed in continuous operation and Condition A applies. If both primary pressure switches for the required pumps are non-functional, it is acceptable to place at least one of the two required pumps in continuous

  • operation and restore FUNCTIONALITY within 7 days, which is essentially meeting the requirements of Condition A (one of the two required pumps non-functional).

Sprinkler and Spray Systems 16.9-2

  • BASES The FUNCTIONALITY of the Fire Suppression Systems ensures that adequate fire suppression capability is available to confine and extinguish fires occurring in any portion of the facility where safety related equipment is located. The Fire Suppression System consists of the water supply/distribution system, sprinkler and spray systems, fire hose stations, fire hydrants, and C0 2 systems. The collective capability of the Fire Suppression Systems is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety related equipment and is a major element in the facility Fire Protection Program.

The ability to demonstrate that the valves in the RF/RY flow path can be cycled is critical to maintaining the system properly. The containment isolation valves (RF389B and RF4478) and the annulus sprinkler system isolation valve (RF4578) are required to be cycled or stroked in accordance with the Catawba lnservice Testing Program. Therefore, credit can be taken for cycling these valves under the IWV program, and they do not need to be cycled annually to meet the SLC criteria.

The intent of TR 16.9-2-2 and TR 16.9-2-5 is to ensure the sectionalizing valve (main header valve used to isolate sections of the header) or isolation valve (branch line valve used to isolate specific fire suppression features (sprinkler or spray system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant)) is operating properly and can be used to achieve isolation when called upon. If a sectionalizing or isolation valve cannot be cycled but is in the correct position ensuring a FUNCTIONAL flow path (fully open) as required by COMMITMENT 16.9-1b., then the associated feature (sprinkler or spray system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) can be considered FUNCTIONAL. If a sectionalizing or isolation valve cannot be cycled and is in the incorrect position, or its position cannot be determined, thereby not ensuring a FUNCTIONAL flow path (not fully open) as required by COMMITMENT 16.9-1 b., then the affected fire suppression feature (sprinkler or spray system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) must be evaluated and the applicable SLCs entered (16.9-2, 16.9-4, and 16.9-23). If a sectionalizing valve in a loop header (i.e., flow path from two directions) cannot be cycled and it cannot be verified as fully open, then administrative controls may need to be implemented to ensure the available flow path is not isolated.

The proper positioning of RF/RY valves is critical to delivering fire suppression water at the fire source as quickly as possible. The option of increasing or decreasing the frequency of valve position verification allows the ability to optimize plant operational resources. Should an adverse trend develop with RF/RY valve positions, the frequency of verification shall be increased. Similarly, if the RF/RY valve position trends are positive, the frequency of verification could be decreased.

Through programmed trending of RF/RY as found valve positions, the RF/RY System will be maintained at predetermined reliability standards.

The Fire Protection Engineer is responsible for trending and determining verification frequencies based on the following:

  • Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.9-2-8 Revision 6

Sprinkler and Spray Systems 16.9-2 BASES (continued)

Initially the frequency shall be monthly.

Annually review the results of the completed valve position verification procedures.

  • If the results demonstrate that the valves are found in the correct position at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the valve position verification may be decreased from monthly to quarterly or quarterly to semiannually or semiannually to annually as applicable. The frequency shall not be extended beyond annually (plus grace period).
  • If the results demonstrate that the valves are not found in the correct position at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the valve position verification shall be increased from annually to semiannually or semiannually to quarterly or quarterly to monthly as applicable. The valve position verification need not be conducted more often than monthly.

In the event that portions of the Fire Suppression Systems are non-functional, alternate backup fire fighting equipmer:it is required to be made available in the affected areas until the non-functional equipment is restored to service. When the non-functional fire fighting equipment is intended for use as a backup means of fire suppression, a longer period

  • of time is allowed to provide an alternate means of fire fighting than if the non-functional equipment is the primary means of fire suppression.

When a required Sprinkler or spray System is non-functional, the REMEDIAL ACTION is to establish an appropriate fire watch, and verify or establish backup fire suppression in the affected area. The REMEDIAL ACTION allows for the use of either a nearby fire hose station or a fire extinguisher as an acceptable means of backup fire suppression. Typically, the preferred choice is to credit a nearby fire hose station as the backup means of suppression. In most cases, nearby fire hose stations exist in the areas affected by a non-functional Sprinkler or spray System. However, in some instances there are areas that do not contain any fire hose stations, such as the Annulus. In the case of the Annulus Sprinkler System, credit is taken for the portable fire extinguishers near the upper and lower Annulus access doors as the backup means of suppression.

Fire Hose Stations 16.9-4 BASES The FUNCTIONALITY of the Fire Suppression Systems ensures that adequate fire suppression capability is available to confine and extinguish fires occurring in any portion of the facility where safety related equipment is located. The Fire Suppression System consists of the water supply/distribution system, sprinkler systems, fire hose stations, fire hydrants, and C0 2 systems. The collective capability of the Fire Suppression Systems is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety related equipment and is a major element in the facility Fire Protection Program.

The alignment of the Fire Suppression System during lnservice Valve Testing (Containment Valve Injection Water System and stroke time testing) for RF389B results in the isolation of some of the required hose stations listed in Table 16.9-4-1. The flow path to the isolated hose stations can be restored using a few simple operator actions. The lnservice Valve Test alignments, the staging of personnel, and associated operator actions to reestablish a flow path are controlled by station procedures.

The location of the required equipment at the Fire Hose Station and the physical condition of the fire hose are critical to fire brigade operations.

The option of increasing or decreasing the frequency of the fire hose inspections allows the ability to optimize plant operational resources.

Should an adverse trend develop with Fire Hose Station equipment or fire hose condition, the frequency of the inspection shall be increased.

  • Similarly, if the Fire Hose Station equipment or fire hose condition trends are positive, the frequency of verification could be decreased. Through programmed trending of Fire Hose Station inspections, Fire Hose Stations will be maintained at predetermined reliability standards. The Fire Protection Engineer is responsible for trending and determining inspection frequencies based on the following:

Initially the frequency shall be monthly.

Annually review the results of the completed Fire Hose Station inspection procedure.

  • If the results demonstrate that the Fire Hose Stations are found acceptable at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the Fire Hose Station inspection may be decreased from monthly to quarterly or quarterly to semiannually or semiannually to annually as applicable. The frequency shall not be extended beyond annually (plus grace period).
  • If the results demonstrate that the Fire Hose Stations are not found acceptable at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the Fire Hose Station inspections shall be increased from annually to semiannually or semiannually to quarterly or quarterly to monthly as Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.9-4-11 Revision 4

Fire Hose Stations 16.9-4

  • BASES (continued) applicable. The verification need not be conducted more often than monthly.

The SSF, LPSW Intake, Reactor Buildings, Turbine Buildings and Service Building fire hose stations were added as result of transition to the NFPA 805 fire protection licensing basis. NFPA 805 Chapter 3, Section 3.6.1 states that all power block buildings shall have a standpipe and hose system installed.

In the event that portions of the Fire Suppression Systems are non-functional, alternate backup fire fighting equipment is required to be made available in the affected areas until the non-functional equipment is restored to service. When the non-functional fire fighting equipment is intended for use as a backup means of fire suppression, a longer period of time is allowed to provide an alternate means offire fighting than if the non-functional equipment is the primary means of fire suppression.

Fire Rated Assemblies 16.9-5 BASES The functional integrity of the Fire Rated Assemblies and associated sealing devices ensures that fires will be confined or adequately retarded so as not to spread between fire areas/compartments.

The fire barriers and associated penetration seals are passive elements in the facility fire protection program and are subject to periodic inspections.

Risk-informed insights from the Fire PRA process can apply to compensatory actions. The safety significance of the fire area can provide relief for required compensatory actions. In addition, the presence of functional fire detection can reduce the required compensatory actions. Functional fire detection in the area provides early warning of a fire for fire brigade response. Fire detection can provide a compensatory action equivalent to or better than fire watch.

Fire barrier penetration seals, including cable/pipe penetration seals, fire doors, and fire dampers, are considered FUNCTIONAL when the visually observed condition indicates no abnormal change in appearance or abnormal degradation. An evaluation is performed to determine the cause of any identified fire barrier penetration seal abnormal change in appearance or abnormal degradation and the effect of this change on the ability of the fire barrier penetration seal to perform its function. Based on this evaluation additional inspections may be performed.

During periods of time when a barrier is not FUNCTIONAL, either:

( 1)

(2)

Perform the recommended fire watch in accordance with the criteria in the remedial actions, or a licensee may choose to implement a different required action or a combination of actions (e.g., additional administrative controls, operator briefings, temporary procedures, interim shutdown strategies, operator manual actions, temporary fire barriers, temporary detection or suppression systems). Such a change must be made to the approved Fire Protection Plan (FPP). However, the licensee must complete a documented evaluation of the impact of the proposed required action to the FPP. The evaluation must demonstrate that the required actions would not adversely affect the ability to achieve and maintain safe shutdown in the event of a fire. Any change to the FPP must maintain compliance with the General Design Criteria and 10 CFR 50.48(a).

The evaluation of the required action should incorporate risk insights regarding the location, quantity, and type of combustible material in the fire area; the presence of ignition sources and their likelihood of occurrence; the automatic fire suppression and the fire detection capability in the fire area; the manual fire suppression capability in the fire area; and the human error probability where applicable.

The expectation is to promptly complete the corrective action at the first available opportunity and eliminate the reliance on the required action.

Conventional Detection A detector where the signal received does not identify the individual device operated.

Addressable Detection A detector with discrete identification that can have its status individually identified.

An acceptable method to satisfy the functional test requirement for smoke detectors is by pre-testing (actuates at the required setpoint within the required accuracy) the detection instruments, replacing all detection instruments on a signaling circuit, and then actuating one detection instrument on the signaling circuit to verify FUNCTIONALITY of alarm.

The following detectors are not included in the Table 16.9-6-1 EFA Zones as "REQUIRED INSTRUMENTS" because they are located in high radiation areas with minimal combustible loading, or because they are located in non-safety related areas. As a result, they are also exempt from the TESTING REQUIREMENTS given in this SLC:

2. Non-safety related area For the individual detector designation, see the EFA System Detector Series drawings (CNM-1376.00 series).

Excluding the detectors in the above listed rooms from the "REQUIRED INSTRUMENTS" is acceptable for the following reasons:

  • All of the above listed detectors, with the exception of detector A 12 in EFA Zone 65, are located in rooms that consist of very little to no combustible loading. These rooms contain primarily piping and mechanical equipment such as tanks, demineralizers, or heat exchangers. This type of equipment is not significantly prone to fire damage or fire propagation. In the case of detector A 12 in EFA Zone 65, the room is separated from adjacent areas with fire rated three-foot thick concrete walls and has additional detectors in the room that will remain in the scope of this SLC.
  • All of the above listed rooms are adjacent to areas that also contain smoke detectors that alarm to the control room. Thus, in the unlikely event that a significant fire should occur in one of these rooms, the smoke detectors in the adjacent areas would provide an alarm to the control room.
  • These rooms are either located in non-safety related areas, or are located in safety
  • related areas, but contain components that do not perform a safe shutdown function.
  • The areas adjacent to these rooms rely on the same assured train of post fire safe shutdown. Therefore, a fire in any of these rooms or in an adjacent area would have no adverse impact on post fire safe shutdown, even in the unlikely event of fire extension to the adjacent areas.

TR 16.9-23-3 Partially open each hydrant hose connection valve to 6 months verify flow with the fire hydrant fully open.

TR 16.9-23-4 Cycle each testable valve in the flow path through at 12 months least one complete cycle of full travel.

BASES The FUNCTIONALITY of the Fire Suppression Systems ensures that adequate fire suppression capability is available to confine and extinguish fires occurring in any portion of the facility where safety related equipment is located. The Fire Suppression System consists of the water supply/distribution system, sprinkler systems, fire hose stations, fire hydrants, and C0 2 systems. The collective capability of the Fire Suppression Systems is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety related equipment and is a major element in the facility Fire Protection Program.

The intent of TR 16.9-23-4 is to ensure the sectionalizing valve (main header valve used to isolate sections of the header) or isolation valve (branch line valve used to isolate specific fire suppression features (sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant)) is operating properly and can be used to achieve isolation when called upon. If a sectionalizing or isolation valve cannot be cycled but is in the correct position ensuring a FUNCTIONAL flow path (fully open) as required by COMMITMENT 16.9-1b., then the associated feature (sprinkler system, hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) can be considered FUNCTIONAL. If a sectionalizing or isolation valve cannot be cycled and is in the incorrect position, or its position cannot be determined, thereby not ensuring a FUNCTIONAL flow path (not fully open) as required by COMMITMENT 16.9-1 b., then the affected fire suppression feature (sprinkler system,

  • Catawba Units 1 and 2 16.9-23-4 Revision 5

BASES (continued) hose standpipe, or fire hydrant) must be evaluated and the applicable SLCs entered (16.9-2, 16.9-4, and 16.9-23). If a sectionalizing valve in a loop header (i.e., flow path from two directions) cannot be cycled and it cannot be verified as fully open, then administrative controls may need to be implemented to ensure the available flow path is not isolated.

The proper positioning of RF/RY valves is critical to delivering fire suppression water at the fire source as quickly as possible. The option of increasing or decreasing the frequency of valve position verification allows the ability to optimize plant operational resources. Should an adverse trend develop with RF/RY valve positions, the frequency of verification shall be increased. Similarly, if the RF/RY valve position trends are positive, the frequency of verification could be decreased.

Through programmed trending of RF/RY as found valve positions, the RF/RY System will be maintained at predetermined reliability standards.

The Fire Protection Engineer is responsible for trending and determining verification frequencies based on the following:

Initially the frequency shall be monthly.

Annually review the results of the completed valve position verification procedures.

  • If the results demonstrate that the valves are found in the correct
  • position at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the valve position verification may be decreased from monthly to quarterly or quarterly to semiannually or semiannually to annually as applicable. The frequency shall not be extended beyond annually (plus grace period).
  • If the results demonstrate that the valves are not found in the correct position at least 99% of the time, the frequency of conducting the valve position verification shall be increased from annually to semiannually or semiannually to quarterly or quarterly to monthly as applicable. The valve position verification need not be conducted more often than monthly.

In the event that portions of the Fire Suppression Systems are non-functional, alternate backup fire fighting equipment is required to be made available in the affected areas until the non-functional equipment is restored to service. When the non-functional fire fighting equipment is intended for use as a backup means of fire suppression, a longer period of time is allowed to provide an alternate means of fire fighting than if the non-functional equipment is the primary means of fire suppression.

Minimum Station Staffing Requirements 16.13-4 BASES The requirements of this SLC consolidate Catawba station staffing requirements into one document. This SLC includes the unit staff requirements of the Catawba Facility Operating Licenses, Technical Specification (TS) 5.2.2, 10 CFR 50.54(m), applicable Operations Management Procedures (OMPs), Administrative Directive (AD) AD-TQ-ALL-0086, "Fire Brigade Training," the Catawba Fire Protection Program, the Catawba Emergency Plan, and SLC 16.13-1, "Fire Brigade." The total requirement for each position was obtained by summing the various individual requirements for that position. The bases for the numbers in the first column of Table 16.13-4-1 are as follows:

1 OSM (active SRO) - Required by 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(ii) and implemented via OMP.

1 STA (active or inactive SRO) - Required by TS 5.2.2g, which indicates that the individual fulfilling the STA position is the Shift Work Manager, and implemented via OMP. Note that old TS (pre-Improved TS) Table 6.2-1, which implemented the requirements of NUREG-0737, "Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements," did not require an STA on shift when both units were in MODE 5, 6, or defueled. Table 16.13-4-1 is more restrictive in that it requires an STA on shift at all times.

2 SR Os (active SRO) - Required by 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i). Per TS 5.2.2b and 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(iii), at least 1 SRO must be in the control room.

3 ROs - Required by 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i).

3 NLOs - Required by TS 5.2.2a and Section B, Figure B-1 of the Emergency Plan and implemented via OMP.

2 NLOs - Required by the Fire Protection Program and implemented via AD and OMP.

Fire Brigade Leader - Required by the Catawba Facility Operating Licenses and Fire Protection Program and implemented via AD and OMP. The individual fulfilling this position shall be a SRO, RO, or other designated personnel (NLO) who is qualified to be a fire brigade leader. This individual functions as the fire brigade leader and is not available for other activities when directing the fire brigade. No regulations explicitly specify that the fire brigade leader be a SRO or RO. However, the fire brigade leader shall have sufficient training in or knowledge of plant safety related systems to understand the effects of a fire and fire suppression systems on safe shutdown capability.

1 Chemistry Technician (ERO) - Required by Section B, Figure B-1 of the Emergency Plan. Implemented via EP Group Manual Guideline 5.1.3. Any technician who is qualified may be credited towards fulfilling the ERO requirement.

Implemented via EP Group Manual Guideline 5.1.3. 1 is required by TS 5.2.2d and may be counted towards fulfilling the ERO requirement. Any technician who is qualified may be credited towards fulfilling the ERO requirement. In the event of a fire, the technician will respond to the fire for radiological monitoring purposes until directed otherwise.

1 Mechanical Maintenance Technician (ERO) - Required by Section B, Figure 8-1 of the Emergency Plan. Implemented via EP Group Manual Guideline 5.1.3. Any technician who is fire brigade qualified may be credited towards fulfilling the ERO requirement and the fire brigade requirement. In the event of a fire, the technician will respond to the fire until directed otherwise.

2 Instrumentation and Electrical Technicians (ERO) - Required by Section B, Figure B-1 of the Emergency Plan. Implemented via EP Group Manual Guideline 5.1.3.

Implemented via EP Group Manual Guideline 5.1.3. Any technician who is qualified may be credited towards fulfilling the ERO requirement. In the event of a fire, the technician will respond to the fire for security purposes until directed otherwise.

Minimum station staffing totals for the SRO and RO positions in Table 16.13-4-1 are a function of the number of units in MODES 1-4. The totals for the remaining positions in Table 16.13-4-1 are not a function of the operational MODES of the units.

10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i) requires 2 SROs when both units are in MODES 1-4, 2 SROs when one unit is in MODES 1-4, and 1 SRO when no units are in MODES 1-4.

10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(i) requires 3 ROs when both units are in MODES 1-4, 3 ROs when one unit is in MODES 1-4, and 2 ROs when no units are in MODES 1-4.

The primary purpose of the Fire Protection Program is to minimize both the probability and consequence of postulated fires. Despite designed active and passive fire protection systems installed throughout the plant, a properly trained and equipped fire brigade organization of at least 5 members is
