(2). Training and Drills j
The inspector reviewed the training records for four fire team leaders and six fire team members and verified that these members had received the initial fire brigade training,1981 practice
!
session and required number of quarterly drills for 1981.
The
.
brigade leaders had also attended one of the fire brigade leadership courses. However, a review of the respirator training
- .
records indicated that a significant number (approximately. 25*; of those reviewed) of the brigade members were not respirator quali-i fied. The licensee had identified this problem and had developed
- -
a training schedule to hav'e all of the operations group and-fire-brigade members respirator qualified by February 5,1982.
This.
item will be reevaluated during a future NRC inspection.
'
Each shift participated in at least one fire brigade drill per quarter-in 1981. On October 13 and 22, fire fighters from the Cornelieus Gilead and ~Huntersville Volunteer Fire Departments i
parti _cipated-in a training program covering radiation protection.
On December'17,-the annual-plant on-site fire drill was conducted with the Cornelieus and Gilead Fire _ Departments. The drills and training with the offsite fire fighting organizations appear, to conform to the provision of Station Directive 2.11.1.

The medical record data for th'e fir;e brige.de members was reviewed to verify that each member had received a physical examination or medical review within the _ past twelve months.
The examination dates for ten brigade members were reviewed and found satisfac-tory.
The medical records are -not stored in a designated QA approved satellite records storage facility. However, the records are in locked,__one hour fire resistant rated file cabinets in the
-
Noncombustible administrative - building which should meet the licensee's satellite records storage criteria. This item is to be reviewed further by the NRC Resident Inspector to assure that no other QA type records are improperly stored or stored in undesignated satellite record storage facilities.
The licensee stated that the medical records storage will be promptly desig-nated as a satellite records storage facility.
(3) Fire Brigade Equipment A sufficient quantity of turnout gear (coats, boots, helmets, gloves, etc.) is available to equip 19 fire fighters.
This equipment is stored in lockers adjacent to the control room and in the turbine building.
Six smoke ejectors, two portable foam generators, spare fire hose and handlights are also stored in the turbine building.
A total of 53 self contained breathing apparatus and 50 spare cylinders are available for use in the event of an emergency.
Five of these units are located in the control room ~and 15 are located in the turbine building..An air compressor powered from a nonessential supply is available to refill the cylinders. A four cylinder cascade system is also available. The emergency air supply and refill capability appears to meet the commitments to the commission.
All - of the fire brigade equipment appeared to be properly maintained.

Inspection and Tests of Fire Protection Systems The inspector reviewed the following surveillance inspection and test records for the dates indicated.
(1) PT/1/A/4400/01A, Fire Protection System Periodic Flow Tests.(18 months)
April 13 through September 1981 and October 14, 1981.
(2) PT/0/A/4400/01C, Fi re Protection System Monthly Test (Valve Alignment)
January 22 through December 22, 1981. Data was not available for t'ie May test; however, the procedure status report listed this test as being complete and the shift supervisors' log indicated that this test had been initiated.. The licensee is to attempt to locate the missing test data.
This item is not considered a violation since it appears that the tests were conducte __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

.
(3) PT/0/A/4400/01K, Fire Protection Annual Valve Test January 22-24, 1981. Next test due January 1982.
(4) PT/1/A/4400/01N, Halon System Test for Diesel Generator and Turbine Driven CA Pump Room (18 months)
January 4-20, 1981. Fire damper for ventilation duct into turbine driver pump room was tested on March 17, 1981 by Work Request No.
83145. The current test procedure has deleted the requirement to test this fire damper.
The licensee is to revise the existing procedure to include this damper. Refer to above paragrah 6.a(2).
(5) PT/0/A/4400/02, Visual Inspection of Fire Hose Stations (monthly)
January 12 through December 15, 1981. The July inspection record data was not in the file.
However, the procedure status report indicated that this test was accomplished and the safety group had a copy of the test data. The licensee is to attempt to locate the missing test data.
(6) PT/1/A/4450/108, Diesel Generator Halon Fire Protection System (monthly)
'
January 1 through December 10, 1981.
(7) PT/1/A/4450/13B, Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Turbine Halon Fire Protection System (monthly)
March 30 through December 17, 1981. The test data for April was missing; however, the procedure status report and the shift supervisor's log indicated that the test was conducted.
There-fore, this is not considered a violation.
The licensee is to attempt to locate the missing test data.
d.
Fire Protection Audits The audit r? port of November 16-18, 1981 of the plant's fire protectior, program conducted by the licensee's corporate fire protection staff was reviewed by the inspector. This report contained eight recommendations which are currently being evaluated by the plant staff. A response to this audit is due on January 16, 1982.
The audit findings and cor-rective action taken will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC inspec-tion.
e.
Plant Tour A tour of the Unit 1 and common areas of the plant was made by the inspector to review the general plant fire protection features and licensee's compliance with the fire protection administrative proce-dures. As a whole, the licensee was adhering to the procedures for the control of combustibles, flammable and combustible liquids and gases and open flame ignition source,_
s.
e
,
Fire pump C was found out of service due to grounds in the power supply circuits. Work Request No.10597 had been issued to repair and restore this pump to service.
Two fire pumps remain in service to meet the requirements of the Technical Specifications. One of the remaining fire pumps was set for constant run and the other set for automatic start if the pressure drops to a level below which the running pump can maintain. Duke's Fire Protection Review for McGuire, Section E.2(c)
(page 58) states that the fire protection system pressure. will be maintained by two jockey pumps and a pneumatic pressure tank.
The
_
licensee stated that the jockey pumps can not maintain adequate pres-sure on the system due to excessive flow demands from either construc-tion usage, service water usage or leaks in.the system. The licensee
,
is to review the existing system and present design and operational requirement and is to determine the necessary modifications required to restore the system back to meet the original design,-i.e., use of fire pump restricted to meet large flow or fire protection prequirements.
This item is identified as Unresolved Item (369/82-02-02 and 370/
82-02-02), use of fire pumps to maintain pressure on the fire pro-tection system, and will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC inspection.
The two deluge valves (Valve Nos. IRY 113 and IRY 114) which control the supply of water in the two 12-inch mains to the auxiliary building were found in the open position.
Duke's Fire Protection Review for McGuire, Section A.5 (page 7) states that these valves are to be normally maintained closed to preclude the possibility of flooding safe shutdown equipment due to failure of the fire suppression piping system in the auxiliary building. The licensee stated that these valves are frequently in the open position due to the manual actuation of.one of the manual trip switches which are located throughout the auxiliary building.
The licensee has attempted to prevent the unauthorized actuation of these switches by the use of cover plates and instructions to operating and construction personnel.
However, it appears-that these actions have not been fully successful. Two activated switches were found by the inspector in the Unit I cable room.
The licensee during the exit interview committed to reevaluate the design of this system to determine what changes should be made to assure that these deluge valves will be maintained in the correct position. This item is identified as Unresolved Item (369/82-02-03 and 370/82-02-03) Design review and modifications to fire protection deluge valves for auxiliary building fire protection system, and will be reviewed during a subse-quent NRC inspection. It also appears that the deluge valves actuation circuits and associated control.nd annunciation panels may not be listed in a plant maintenance or surveillance inspection and test procedure.
This item is identified as Inspector Followup Item (369/
82-02-01) in above paragraph 6.a(2).
Fire hydrant equipment house Nos. 2 and 3 were inspected and found to contain adequate equipment which was properly stored and maintained.
However, the last hydrostatic pressure test on some sections of
..
.
.
1 -inch fire hose was December 1978.
The licensee had scheduled to replace this hose with new hose.
The inspector advised the licensee that 10 CFR 50 Appendix R requires fire hose stored in outside storage cabinets to be hydrostatic pressure tested annually.
This item is identified as Inspector Followup Item (369/82-02-01) in above paragraph 6.a(2). However, this feature may not be applicable to McGuire.
The inspector visually inspected 22 fire protection control valves inside the plant and 12 sectional control valves outside the plant and found these valves to be properly aligned. The halon system; for diesel generator and auxiliary feedwater pump rooms were in service and the fire detection system for the safety related areas of the plant were also found to be in service. All of the fire doors were found in service.
Within the areas examined, no violations or deviations were identified.
