The surveillance test record data and testing frequency associated with the above fire protection system surveillance test / inspections were found to be satisfactory with regard to meeting the requirements of the plants Fire Protection Technical Specifications, Fire Protection Audit The most recent audit of the Catawba Nuclear Station Fire Protection Program was reviewe This was Audit Number WP-88-23 (CN) which was conducted during the period of February 22, 1988, through March 4, 198 This audit identified several fire protection program discrepancies and unresolved items, and recommended several program improvement The licensee has either implemented the corrective actions associated with these audit findings or a scheduled date for completion of the corrective actions has been established. The licensee appears to be taking the appropriate corrective actions on these audit finding Fire Brigade (1) The total station fire brigade is composed of approximately 93 personnel from the operation staff. The onduty shift fire captain is normall an Assistant Shift Supervisor and the remaining fire bri de members are composed of personnel from the operation staf .

The inspector reviewed the on duty shifts for the months of March, A)ril, and May of 1988, to verify that sufficient qualifiec fire brigade personnel were on duty to meet the provisions of the plants fire protection program. Review of these records indicated that sufficient cualified personnel were onduty to meet the provisions of the p' ants fire protection progra (2) The inspector reviewed the training and drill records for all fire brigade members of the A, B, C D, and E shifts for 1987 and 1988. The records reviewed indicated that each of the leaders and brigade members had received an annual medical review, attended the required training and participated in the required number of drills. The inspector also verified that a fire brigade drill had been conducted quarterly for each shift for 1987 and 1988. The fire brigade training records were found satisfactor (3) Fire Brigade Fire Fighting Strategies The inspector reviewed the following plant fire fighting strategies: '
