SUBJECT:

Docket No. 50-333 SPECIAL REPORT 93-002 NONFUNCTIONAL FIRE BARRIER DOOJ1

Dear Sir:

The New York Power Authority (NYPA) submits this report in accordance with Technical Specification 3.12.F.2 and 6.9.B.2 to document our inability to restore a nonfunctional fire barrier to functional status within a seven day period.

On December 28, 1992, a fire barrier installed in front of a fire door, 76FDR-A-272-5 was determined to be nonfunctional due to identification of an unsealed opening in the barrier.

Appropriate compensatory measures including posting of a fire watch and initiation of a maintenance work request were taken.

Work was completed and the fire barrier restored to functional status on January 13, 1993. An assessment of the safety significance, JAF-ANAL-FPS-0861, concludes with reasonable assurance that the uns>'aled opening did not adversely effect divisional separation criteria nor did the opening present an unacceptable safety risk prior to its discovery and implementation of compensatory measures.

If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Donald F. Simpson at (315) 349-6361.

Very truly yours,

/ ,$ /
