>

(373/81-20-14); (373/81-18-01); (373/81-18-02); (373/81-18-03);

(373/81-18-04); (373/81-18-05); (373/81-43-05); (373/81-28-17);

and (373/82-10-09)

No items of noncompliance were identified in this area.

5.

Fire Protection Review i

The inspector examined the licensee's commitments to the Fire Protection Safety Evaluation Report (FPSER) during March 17-19, 1982 and March 24-26, 1982. The inspector identified the following three areas of concern:

1.

Sections 9.5.6.2 and 9.5.6.3 requires the licensee to provide three hour fire rated dampers.

Fire dampers in the auxiliary equipment room and the Division II switchgear room do not all contain the required three hour fire rating. The licensee stated they have issued deficiency reports and will respond to this item at a later time.

(373/82-13-01A)

2.

Section 9.5.6.6 of the FPSER requires a 50' separation for redundant cabic divisions at the 731' elevation outside the Unit 1 drywell. The inspector noticed that the redundant I

divisions were wrapped with a fire proofing material but were not separated by the required 50 feet.
