i These inspections verified that the installed system' piping, i valves, and nozzles conformed to the design drawings. (2) Field Applied Coatings Inspection, Unit 2 Diesel Generator Building, FP-17 Drawing N Date of QC Inspection

,

CN-2506-04.85-00 1/3/85 CN-2506-04.85-02 2/7/85 These inspections were to verify proper installation of the protective coatings for the underground portion of the CO2 system piping to the diesel generator building. Based on the inspector's walkdown, the CO 2 systems appeared to be installed in accordance with the requirements of the manufacturer or construction drawing The installation of the AFWP and diesel generator CO2 systems is complete and QC inspections are complete, but the final turnover

,

and functional testing has not been accomplished. Test Procedure Nos. TP/2/A/1400/05B (dated 5/17/85) and TP/2/A/1400/05C (dated 4/19/85) for the CO2 Fire Protection System D/G Building and Auxiliary Feedwater Pumps Functional Tests, respectively, were reviewed and they appear adequate. However, until these tests are completed by the licensee this is identified as Inspector Followup Item (414/85-50-01), Review of Completed Fire Protection and Detection System Inspections and Functional Test The tests results will be reviewed during a future NRC inspectio In addition, a control valve position verification surveillance program has not been developed for the Unit 2 CO 2 systems. This is identified as Inspector Followup Item (414/85-50-02), Review of Unit 2 Valve Position Verification / Surveillance Program for CO 2 systems and will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC inspection, b. Automatic Sprinkler System A review and inspection was made of the automatic sprinkler systems provided for the following areas:

U ,

y L These systems appeared to meet the installation requirements of the

' "f construction drawings and the applicable code, National Fire Protection

. Association (NFPA) 13, Automatic Sprinkler Systems, except the control valve to' the water flow alarm device for the ' system in the auxiliary feedwater pump room is not designed to be sealed or locked in the open positio NFPA-13, Section 3-17.4 requires these valves to be so constructed and installed that they may be locked or sealed in the open position. The control valve to the water flow alarm device for the cable room corridor sprinkler system was the 'same type valve, and was found. to be in the closed position during this inspectio The inspector suggested that the licensee replace or modify these control valves and keep these valves locked or sealed in the open positio This is identified as Inspector Followup Item (414/85-50-03), Lock or Seal Control Valves to the Water Flow Alarms for the Automatic Sprinkler Systems in Open Position, and will be reviewed during a I

subsequent NRC inspectio A review was made of the following construction test and QC inspection documents:

Date of Date of Final QC System Hydrostatic Tests Configuration Inspection

Elevation Auxiliary Feed- 3-22-85 6-27-85 water Pump Room The above tests and inspection records were satisfactory. However, the functional tests on the electrical components of the sprinkler had not been completed. This is identified as another example of Inspector Followup Item (414/85-50-01). Except as noted above, the installation of the sprinkler systems appear to meet the NFPA design and instal-lation requirements and the NRC guidelines. A QC inspection program is provided to verify that the installed systems meet the construction drawings, Fire Detection System (EFA)

The October 11, 1985, QC inspector record drawings CN-1762-01.02

'

Revision 24 and CN-1762-01.03 Revision 28 were reviewed. This QC inspection required verification of (1) the location of the detector unit base to the design drawings; (2) detector . type, setting and position; and (3) presence of UL/FM label on detector unit and included detection Zones 68 (motor control center),19 (Auxiliary Feedwater Pump areas), 25 and 26 (charging pump rooms). The inspector conducted a

.

wal k . down inspection of zones 19, 25 and 26 and verified that the detector installations conformed to the construction drawing The QC inspection did not include calibration of the detector head sensitivity nor' a functional test. The licensee is evaluating this apparent discrepancy. Review of -this item will be performed during a future NRC inspectton and is another example of Inspector Followup Item

-

(414/85-50-01).

d. Fire Barrier Penetration Seals The inspector reviewed the following fire barrier penetration seals:

'

penetration. The licensee's QC inspection of the seal revealed that several large void areas were left in the penetration seal fire stop due to the formation of inadequate foam cell structure. The defective foam material was removed and the seal repaired in accordance with Specification CNS-1390.01-00-0098, Specification for Installation and Repairing of Cable Penetration Firestops. Review of the final QA/QC inspection documentation for this cable penetration firestop will be reviewed during a future NRC inspection. This is another example of Inspector Followup Item (414/85-50-01).

e. Fire Doors The installed fire doors were not reviewed during this inspection. The licensee stated that the installation of the doors was practically complete with final adjustments being made to the doors. The final QC inspection of the doors is scheduled to be completed prior to L

._

December 1, 1985. These doors will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC-inspectio This is another example of Inspector Followup . Item

/ 414/85-50-01). Fire Dampers-The design and construction documents were reviewed and an inspection was made of the following fire dampers 'to verify that these dampers were installed to meet the manufacturer's requirements:

The installation of the ' dampers inspected appear to meet the manu-facturer's and construction documents requirements. However, the required clearance between the damper sleeves / duct material and wall opening could not be verified. This item was reportedly inspected and verified during the licensee's QC inspection progra g. Fire Barrier Walls, Fireproofing of Seismic iteel Using Gypsum Wall Board .

The inspector reviewed the following fire barrier assemblies which utilize gypsum wall board for fireproofing of structural ste'el:

the auxiliary feedkater pump room were reviewe The raceway fire j-barriers were inspected by 'the licensee's QC organization on September 7,1985 for civil items /and September 20, 1985 for electrica) ~

item However, during a review of the QC inspection records the

'

inspector noted that the raceway fire barriers were apparently installed and QC " inspections performed _using uncontrolled design drawings. The inspector made a'walkdown inspection and it appears that the installation meets the final controlled construction drawings, however, this item has been identified by the licensee as Nonconforming Item Report No. 19972. The licensee has initiated the necessary action to prevent future occurrenc The inspector verified that the following cables were enclosed within-the one-hour barrier:

Cable No Cable No CA 875 2*CA'763 2*CA 743 2*CA 770 2*CA 760 2*NV 631 2*CA 761 2*WL 561 2*CA 762 2*WL 790 2*CA 762

are not fireproofed with a one-hour fire-resistive material. This is

  • .-identical to Unresolved Item (413/85-15-01) for Unit 1. For Unit 2 this .is identified as Inspector Followup Item (414/85-50-04), Failure to Provide Fire Proofing Material To Structural Steel Supporting the Fire Rated Cable Raceway Enclosures. A deviation request has been sent to NRC/NRR by the licensee to justify this discrepanc ' Standby Shutdown System

..The licensee has not completed the procedures for Unit 2 shutdown using

"the standby shutdown system, the associated circuit analysis, and the damage or repair procedures required to bring the plant to cold N shutdown in the event of fire in certain plant areas. These are scheduled to be completed by early December 1985, at which time a detailed NRC followup inspection will be made. This is identified as

This piping extends from two cylinders in the bulk gas storage building located outside the plant structures through underground piping in the yard and exposed piping in the auxiliary and reactor buildings to the drain tan ,

An excess flow l valve has been installed in the distribution piping at the cylinders to limit the maximum hydrogen concentration in the event of a line break to less than 2% in the effected area. The inspector. verified that the eicess flow valve (Dragon Model 15600-15SW) was installe (
