It was found that combustible materials, flammable and combustible liquid and gas usage is restricted or properly controlled in areas containing safety-related equipment and components. Items checked included positions of selected valves, fire barrier' condition, hose stations, Halon systems lineups, and fire locker There were no welding, cutting, or use of open flame ignition sources found in'the areas toured. General housekeeping conditions were found to

Fire Brigad : equipment, including emergency breathing apparatus, was found.to be Lproperly stored and maintained.~ Fire Door 1011-1 was found in an :

' inoperable condition. This condition had already been identified by the licensee and the operability of adjacent fire ~ zone detectors had,been Jdetermined and an hourly fire watch patrol established. A maintenance ,

order has been initiated and the door and frame assembly will be replace .

.The NRC inspector.also reviewed fire brigade training and drill records and reviewed the current roster.of qualified brigade members. The. records

.were in order and confirmed-that training and drills are being conducted

at the'specified interval During a tour of-the control room the NRC C inspector discussed the fire brigade. composition with the shift

supervisor. The only discrepancy was in the designation of fire brigade  ;

leader. ' Subsequent discussions with a licensee representative revealed

.that Procedure G-28, " Station Fire Protection Plan," still designates the shift supervisor as Fire Brigade Leader, but a1 revision to this procedure was in process to redesignate this-function to the licensed equipment ~

During this:same control room visit-the NRC inspector asked.the security guard stationed in the control room if he knew where the access keys were

' implement Procedure EP-24A, " Forced Evacuation of the Control Room Due-to -

Fire." He thought the keys were in break boxes in the corridor adjacent to:the switchgear. room access. These keys are in break boxes in the control-room. Subsequent discussion with the fire protection engineer and c, 'a' training representative revealed that this information is not mentioned
