2.0 Fire Protection / Prevention Program (64704)
In response to NRC Generic Letter 86-10 regarding overall improvement of the Technical Specification Program, the licensee's Technical Specifica-tions, Limiting Condition for Operation (LCOs) and surveillance require-ments were removed from the Technical Specifications (IS). All of the former TS, LCOs and surveillance requirements formerly described in TS-3.18 and 4.18 were incorporated into administrative procedure No.
AP-1038 " Fire Protection Program." This procedure (AP-1038) was sent to the NRC and docketed on February 1,1988. The Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Section 9.9 was revised to include the Fire Protection Program on February 5, 1988.
FSAR Amendment 146, Section 2C incorporates the fire protection plan in the FSAR and removes the program from the Technical Specification making it a license requirement.
This became effective on November 30, 1988, at which time the TS, LCOs and surveillance requirements for fire services were removed from the TMI-1 Technical Specifications, t

2.9 TMI-2 Fire Protection / Prevention Program (64704)
The; inspector reviewed licensee amendment No. 32 and the recovery operations plan change No. 41 (dated May 15,1989) which reclassifies much of the i
TMI-2. fire protection system as not important to safety. The only items remaining in the TMI-2 fire protection program which require regular verification and inspection by the licensee are the fire detectors in the
" Reactor Building Panel 720 and its associated alarm circuits; the fire suppression system in that portion of the water supply system that main-tains an operable flow path from 2 pumps and 2 water sources to the four reactor building hose reel stations, and the yard loop fire hydrant.
.i The inspector verified the licensee's surveillance and test documents for the above equipment and confirmed that they complied with the Technical Specifications requirements.
Due to the high radiation levels existing in the zones of interest, visual
,
observation of the equipment was made using video cameras located in the area.
Within the scope of this review, no violations or deviations were identified.
3.0 Exit Interview The inspector met with licensee management representatives (see Section 1.0 for attendees) at the conclusion of the inspection on January 26, 1990. The inspector summarized the scope and findings of the inspection at that time.
The inspector also confirmed with the
, licensee that the report w'il not contain any proprietary information.
