Mr. Dale E. Young, Vice President Crystal River Nuclear Plant (NA1B)

ATTN: Supervisor, Licensing &

Regulatory Programs 15760 West Power Line Street Crystal River, FL 34428-6708

SUBJECT:

NOTIFICATION OF TRIENNIAL FIRE PROTECTION BASELINE INSPECTION, (NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-302/02-05)

Dear Mr. Young:

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

Region II staff will conduct a triennial fire protection baseline inspection at the Crystal River Nuclear Plant, Unit 3 in June and July 2002. The inspection team will be led by Mr. C. Payne, Fire Protection Team Leader of the Region II Office. The team will be composed of personnel from the NRC Region II Office and conducted in accordance with the NRCs baseline fire protection inspection procedure 71111.05.

The inspection objective will be to evaluate your fire protection program implementation with emphasis on post-fire safe shutdown capability and the fire protection features provided to ensure at least one post-fire safe shutdown success path is maintained free of fire damage.

The inspection team will focus their review of the separation of systems and equipment necessary to achieve and maintain safe shutdown and fire protection features of selected fire areas.

On April 23, 2002, during a telephone conversation with Mr. D. Herrin, Licensing & Regulatory Programs, our respective staffs confirmed arrangements for a three-day information gathering onsite visit and a two-week onsite inspection. The schedule for the inspection is as follows:



Information gathering onsite visit - June 5 - 7, 2002.



Week 1 of onsite inspection - June 24 - 28, 2002.



Week 2 of onsite inspection - July 8 - 12, 2002 The purposes of the information gathering visit are to obtain information and documentation needed to support the inspection; to become familiar with the Crystal River fire protection program, fire protection features, post-fire safe shutdown capabilities and plant layout; and, as necessary, obtain plant specific site access training and badging for unescorted site access.

The types of documents the team will be interested in reviewing, and possibly obtaining, are listed in the Enclosure. Please contact Mr. Payne prior to preparing copies of the materials listed in the Enclosure. The inspection team will try to minimize your administrative burden by specifically identifying those documents required for inspection preparation.

FPC 2

During the information gathering visit, the team will also discuss the following inspection support administrative details: office space; specific documents requested to be made available to the team in their office spaces; arrangements for reactor site access (including radiation protection training, security, safety and fitness for duty requirements); and the availability of knowledgeable plant engineering and licensing organization personnel to serve as points of contact during the inspection.

We request that during the inspection weeks you ensure that copies of analyses, evaluations or documentation regarding the implementation and maintenance of the Crystal River Nuclear Plant fire protection program, including post-fire safe shutdown capability, be readily accessible to the team for their review. Of specific interest are those documents which establish that your fire protection program satisfies NRC regulatory requirements and conforms to applicable NRC and industry fire protection guidance. Also, personnel should be available at the site during the inspection who are knowledgeable regarding those plant systems required to achieve and maintain safe shutdown conditions from inside and outside the control room (including the electrical aspects of the relevant post-fire safe shutdown analyses), reactor plant fire protection systems and features, and the Crystal River fire protection program and its implementation.

Your cooperation and support during this inspection will be appreciated. If you have questions concerning this inspection, or the inspection teams information or logistical needs, please contact Mr. Payne at (404) 562-4669, or me at (404) 562-4605.

Sincerely,

/D. Charles Payne for RA/
