Management Interview A management interview was conducted at the conclusion of the inspection on April 27, 1978, with R. M. Koehler and other licensee staff members (denoted in paragraph 1).
All subjects presented in these details were discussed. The licensee acknowledged these findings without comment.
5.
Fire Protection and Prevention The licensee's fire protection and prevention program was reviewed to verify that controls had been established to include: (1) work control procedures which control welding and burning, plant operations approval and control of all work done under the work control procedure, and a requirement for a fire watch for welding and burning operations with capability of communication with the control room; (2) requirements for quality assurance surveillance during, maintenance and modification of fire stop penetration seals; and (3) a 10 CFR 50.59 review of all replacement cable penetration seal material to assure that flammable material is not used.
The inspector reviewed emergency shutdown procedures, the latest fire insurance carrier inspection reports, and made an inspection tour of a major portion of the plant.
The program was evaluated for conformance to the Technical Specifications, 10 CFR 50.59; Criteria III and IV of Appendix A to 10 CFR 50; Section 3.2.3 of ANSI N45.2; and Section 6 of Appendix A to Regulatory Guide 1.33.
The plant was also inspected to the commitments set forth in the licensee's response to Inspection and Enforcement Bulletin Nos. 75-04 and 75-04A dated April 23, 1975, and the Duke Power Company response to Appendix A to Branch Technical Position APCSB 9,5-1, " Guidelines for Fire Protection for Nuclear Power Plants," and response to the NRC's " Nuclear Plant Fire Protection Functional Responsibilities, Administrative Controls and Quality Assurance."
Within the areas inspected, no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified; however, the material used in the cable penetration fire stop tests is questionable as to its flammability.
The licensee has made previous commitments to the NRC, by letter of February 17, 1978, to conduct cable penetration fire stop tests by April 30, 1978. At the time of the inspection this testing had not been completed.
This item is unresolved (No. 78-10-01) pending the cocpletion and results of the cable penetration fire stop tests.
