Fire Protection Audits l

The most recent audit report of the Crystal River 3 fire protection j

program was reviewed. The audit report reviewed was:

Audit report 89-06 conducted by Site Support, June 12 through June 30, 1989.

The audit evaluated the emergency preparedness and fire protectior. programs for conformance to regulatory procedural I

requirements.

This audit also assessed the ' implementation of the I

activities of the Compliance and Licensing Organization as well as Quality Assurance Program presently in place for the Nuclear Operations Site Support Organization.

During the course of this audit, four nonconformances. thirteen audit findings, and six concerns were issued.

All the fire protection findings have been addressed or closed out. The licensee appears to be taking the appropriate corrective actions on these items.

e.

Fire Brigade (1) The fire brigade is composed of approximately 115 personnel from

~

the plant staff.

The on duty fire brigade team consists of a l

fire team leader and four brigade members. The-fire team leader is normally the nuclear assistant shift supervisor and the remaining fire brigade members are composed of operations and building service personnel.

The inspector reviewed the control center log for the period of November 26, 1989 through December 12, 1989, and verified that sufficient fire brigade-personnel were assigned to each on-duty shift to meet the provision of Technical Specification 6.2.2 'and' that they had received the proper training.

(2) Training Procedure TDP-307 outlines the fire brigade training program.

Each fire brigade member receives fire brigade training which is designed to provide basic knowledge and manual fire fighting skills.

The initial fire brigade training program is approximately 44 hours5.092593e-4 days <br />0.0122 hours <br />7.275132e-5 weeks <br />1.6742e-5 months <br />.

It includes 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of hands-on-training at the Florida State Fire College and a four hour plar.t familiarization session.

The inspector reviewed the training and drill records for 20 fire brigade shift members and 7 team leaders for 1988 and 1989.

The review indicated the 20 fire brigade shift nembers and 7 team leaders had completed all required initial training, requalification training, and brigade leadership training and participated in the required number of drills.

(3) Fire Brigade Fire Fighting Strategies The inspector reviewed fire fighting strategies (pre-fire-plans)

for the following plant areas:

AB-75-1 RB-95-1 AB-95-1 RB-119-1 AB-95-4 RB-160-1 AB-95-8 TB-95-1 AB-95-9 TB-95-3 AB-95-12 TB-95-5 AB-119-1 TB-119-4 AB-119-4 TB-145-1 AB-119-8 TB-145-2 AB-119-12 CC-95-1 AB-143-2 CC-108-1 AB-143-5 CC-124-6 AB-162-2 CC-134-1 AB-162-3 CC-145-1 Based on this review, the inspector determined that the above fire fighting strategies adequately addressed the fire hazards in the area, the type of fire extinguishments to.be utilized, the direction of attack, systems in the room / area to be managed in order to reduce fire damage, heat sensitive equipment in the room area, and specific fire brigade duties with regard to smoke control and salvage.

(4) Fire Brigade Drill During this inspection, the inspector witnessed an unannounced fire brigade drill.

The drill scenario was that there was a Classes A and C fire in the HVAC equipment room on the first floor

.

of the administration building.

Electrical breaker cabinet AHCP-24 was overloaded thus igniting cable insulation. The room was fully engulfed in heavy smoke.

No automatic sprinkler system is installed in the room.

An alarm was sounded at 10:10 a.m.

The building fire alarm was sounded inside the building.

The office personnel began to evacuate the building. The alarm could not be heard on the west side of the building. The fire team leader arrived on the third floor through the turbine building.

Five security guards arrived at the staging area (southwest of the administration building).

One security guard called the control room at 10:12 a.m. and reported smoke escaping from under the doors of the HVAC

-

equipment room.

The fire team leader reported to the control room that he had finished searching the administration building and had found no signs of fire.

He also reported that he had

,

cleared the alarm and was leaving the building'to check the HVAC equipment room.

The fire team leader arrived at the drill scene at 10:14 a.m.

He slowly cracked the door, only for a few seconds, to the HVAC equipment room.

The fire team leader radioed the control room and advised them of the situation. He requested that the power supply to the building be de-energized. He also requested that the fire brigade be called out.

The control room received the message and announced the drill as a fire emergency.

The announcement was made over the plant PA System at 10:15 a.m.

The fire team leader instructed security guards to seal off the area.

The fire team leader at 10:10 a.m. began to reel off a hose line from FH-2 but did not finish.

The fire team leader was informed that at 10:17 a.m. that this was a drill, and not a fire emergency.

He in turn informed the control room and a second announcement was' made over the plant PA system correcting the fire emergency to a fire drill.

The location of the staging area was also announced.

The fire cart driver, and assistant fire team leader and two fire brigade members with bunker gear arrived at the staging area at 10:20 a.m.

The fire team leader ordered a hose line be laid from a hose reel just inside the turbine building.

At 10:21 a.m., the fire brigade members cut a rope that was keeping the turbine building door tied shut. A third fire team leader arrived on the scene and imediately assumed the duties of a second assistant fire team leader.

Two additional fire brigade members arrived fully dressed out.
