SUBJECT: SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT - NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-327/02-03,
50-328/02-03
Dear Mr. Scalice:
On March 29, 2002, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a triennial fire
protection inspection at the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant. The enclosed report documents the
results of this inspection which were discussed on March 28-29, with Mr. Dennis Cole and other
members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and
compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed
personnel.
Based on the results of this inspection, the inspectors identified afinding and- two issues of
very low safety significance (Green). These-two issues were determined to involve violations
of NRC requirements. [However, because of their very low safety significance and because
they have been entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these issues as
Non-cited violations, in accordance with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC's Enforcement Policy. The
first violation involved a failure to ensure that one of the redundant trains for isolation of normal
letdown is maintained free of fire damage. The second violation involved the failure to properly
establish the plant fire procedure such that actions necessary to mitigate the consequences of a
severe fire could be tken. ( The finding Inolved the failure to provide adequate re's
coordenetict- rcv atfault on on unit resulting in the inadvertent trip of the othecr
e"ff~ect fllprforea
If you deny these fiNon-cited violations, you should provide a response with the basis for your
denial, within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, to the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the
Regional Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the
Sequoyah Nuclear Plant.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its
enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document
Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's Document
system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC web site at httpv://www.nrc.gov/readina-

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Units land 2
IR 05000327-02-03 and IR 05000328-02-03 on 03/25-2912002,Tennesee Valley Authority,
Sequoyah Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2, triennial baseline inspection of the fire protection
program.
The inspection was conducted by a Brunswick resident inspector, and three regional reactor
inspectors. The inspection identified two nNon-cited violations which were determined to be of
very low safety significance (Green). The significance of most findings is indicated by their
color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using IMC 0609 "Significance Determination Process."
Findings for which the SDP does not apply are indicated by "No Color" or by the severity level
of the applicable violation. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial
nuclear power reactors is described at its Reactor Oversight Process website at
htto://nrrl0.nrc.gov/NRRIOVERSIGHT/index.html.
lnspector Identified Findings
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
- Green. A nNon-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix R III.G.2, was identified for
failure to ensure that one of the redundant trains of a system necessary to achieve and
maintain hot shutdown conditions Inthe event of a fire was free of fire damage.
ESpepifically; "electrical cables for redundant- charging flow isolation valves 1-FCV-62-90
and 91 were located in Fire Area FAA-029, the Auxiliary Building Corridor, without
adequate spatial separation or fire barriers.
The finding had a credible impact on safety in that fire damage to the unprotected
cables could prevent closure of the valves from the main control room (MCR) and
challenge the operators' ability to establish adequate injection flow to the reactor coolant
pump (RCP) seals. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance
because the ignition frequency was relatively low, fire detection and suppression
systems were not degraded, and there were no components in this area whose failure
would result in an accident initiator (i.e., loss of offsite power, loss of main feedwater,
etc.) so the finding only affected the mitigating systems cornerstone. (Section 1R05.02)
- Green. A nion-cited violation of Technical Specification-(TS) 6.8.1.a. was identified for
inadequate procedure guidance related to the transition from abnormal operating
procedure (AOP)-N.01, Plant Fires, to AOP-C.04, Shutdown From Auxiliary Control
Room, in the event of a severe fire in the control building. AOP-N.01 did not clearly
delineate what conditions would require entry into AOP-C.04 and evacuation of the
MCR). Also, AOP-N.01 did not direct operators to enter AOP-C.04 in the event of a
severe fire in the control building.
This finding had a credible impact on safety, in that, the inadequate guidance in
procedure AOP-N.01 could delay entry into AOP-C.04 and could challenge the operators'
ability to perform certain critical safe shutdown functions (e.g., isolate normal charging,
establish adequate seal injection flow to the RCPs) within the times specified in the
licensee's safe shutdown calculation for Appendix R. This finding was determined to be
of very low safety significance because it did not affect fire detection, fire suppression, or
fire barriers. (Section 1R05.05)
(Green). A findimg was ientified, in that,
This finding had a efedible impee
aen safety, in that,
(Section 1RO5.OX)
Licensee identified Findings
- Two violations of very low safety significance which were identified by the licensee were
reviewed by the inspection team. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee
appear reasonable. These violations are listed jSection 40A74.$
Report Details
2. REACTOR SAFETY
Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems
1R05 FIRE PROTECTION
.01 Systems Reguired To Achieve and Maintain Post-Fire Safe Shutdown (SSD)
a. Inspection Scope
The team evaluated the licensee's fire protection program against applicable
requirements, including the Sequoyah Nuclear (SQN) Units 1 and 2 fire protection
License Conditions 2.C(16) and 2.C(13) respectively, Fire Protection; Title 10 of the Code
of Federal Regulations Part 50 (10 CFR 50), Appendix R lll.G, III.J, 111.0, and 111.1;
Appendix A of Branch Technical Position (BTP) Auxiliary and Power Conversion Systems
Branch (APCSB) 9.5-1; 10 CFR 50.48; related NRC Safety Evaluation Reports (SERs);
NUREGS and the Technical Specifications (TS).
The team used the licensee's Individual Plant Examination for External Events (IPEEE)
and in-plaaitwlkdowns to select four risk significant fire areas iFLIG5for inspection. The
four fire areas (erere:
Fire Area FAA-029, Auxiliary Building, Elevation 690: Auxiliary Building Corridor
This fire area (FA) includes rooms 690.0-Al, A9, Al0,A13, A14, A17, Al8, A22, A23,
A23a, A24, A27, A30 and A31. This area contains both trains of safe shutdown
equipment or cables and is classified as a 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix R, III.G.2 area. A
significant fire in this area would require shutdown of either unit from the main control
room (MCR).
Fire Area FAA-067, Auxiliary Building, Elevation 734: 6.9 kilovolt (kV) Shutdown Board
Rooms
This FA includes rooms 734.0-A2 and A9. This fire area includes both units train 'A'
auxiliary electric power switchgear. This area is classified as a 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix
R, Ill.G.2. A significant fire in this fire area would require shutdown of either unit from the
MCR and involve the respective3 units centrifugal eharging pumps (GGP) 1(2) B B, the
turbine drive auxiliary feedwater (TDAFW) pm ad train ' residual heat rem !
(RI R ~pumps 2)- B.
Fire Area FAC-009, Control Building, Elevation 685: Unit 1 Auxiliary Instrument Room
This FA includes controls to important safe shutdown (SSD) equipment from the control
room. This area is classified as a 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix R, Ill.G.3 area. A significant
fire in this area would involve evacuation of the MCR and alternative shutdown from the
remote shutdown panel using the Auxiliary Control Room (ACR) located in the Auxiliary
Building.
Fire Area FAC-20, Control Building, Elevation 732: Relay Room
This FA includes high voltage electrical relay equipment for offsite power and is located
adjacent to the MCR complex. A significant fire in this area may result in a fire induced
loss of offsite power (LOOP). This area is classified as a 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix R,
Il.G.3 area. A fire in this area would require evacuation of the MCR and alternate
shutdown from the remote shutdown panel using the ACR located in the Auxiliary
Building.
- The team reviewed the IPEEE, -Appendix A to GCalculation SQN-26-D054/EPM-ABB-
IMPFHA - Fire Hazards Analysis (FHA), the Sequoyah Fire Protection Report (FPR),
associated procedures, and system drawings to identify those systems credited for
SSD of the facility in the event of a fire in the selected fire areas. The inspection
included review of the post-fire SSD capability and the fire protection features to ensure
that at least one post-fire SSD success path was maintained free of fire damage in the
event of a fire.
For a selected sample of SSD systems, components, and plant monitoring instruments,
the team reviewed the SQN Fire Protection Report, the FHA, applicable fire protection
related SERs and NUREGS, and system flow diagrams to evaluate the completeness
and adequacy of the FPR and the systems relied upon to mitigate fires in the selected
fire areas.
The team inspected the capability to shutdown for the scenario where Afire intFA FAC-
20. Relay Room, gui3'initiated a LOOP The asdne by raviewinteam
is . h control circuits and-assbcated " ir6Uit- an61ysjs-for the diesel generators to
determine whether any devices in the control circuit were located in FAG- 2. The
lieensee's circuit analysis was also reviewed to determine whether the diesel generator
control circuit was analyzed in relatin toFA FAC-20. In a similar manner, the control
circuits for the 6.9 kV shutdown board incoming circuit breakers (i.e. offsite power and
diesel generator breaker) were reviewed -to determine whether a fire in.;AF FAC-20 could
interfere with opening of the offsite breaker or closing the diesel generator breaker.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were Identified.
.02 Fire Protection of Safe Shutdown CaDability
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the licensee's the FPR for EsFAA-029 and FAA-067 to determine
whether redundant trains of components or circuits required for safe shutdown were
located in the same fire ereseA. From those components, the team selected the
centrifugal charging pumps 1A and 1B power cables, and the charging flow isolation
valves 1-FCV-62-90 and 91 power and control cables to verify that adequate spatial
separation or proper fire barrier protection features were installed in accordance with the
design requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix R. For the selected cables the team
examined cable routing,` raceway drawings, the actual configuration of the circuits, fire
barriers, dfire detection, and fire suppression eauipment as applicable for
coformance to. mic.
ta li&Pbl'Nc iei Fire
frotectionAs ation(tandards. In addition the team walked down these fire
ereesFs to verify that the licensee documentation reflected the as-built configuration.
Team members also walked down the selected fireareesFA and compared the
associated fire fighting pfe plan prfeendur a1 and drawings with as-built plant
conditions. This was done to verify that they were consistent with the fire protection
features and potential fire conditions described in the FPR. Additionally, the team
reviewed engineering evaluations associated with the reactor auxiliary building floor and
equipment drain sump capacity to verify that the fire brigade and eperftetIhme actions
required for post-fire alternative SSD would not be inhibited by fire suppression activities
or leakage from fire suppression systems. [The team reviewed fire brigade response,-
training, and drill program procedures. Fire brigade drill critiques for operating shifts from
1999 until 2001 as well as fire brigade training/drill records for the same period were
reviewed to verify that fire brigade drills had been conducted in high fire risk plant areas
and that-he fire brigade personnel qualifications, brigade drill response, and brigade
performance met the requirements of the licensee's approved fire protection program.
The team reviewed selected portions of the SQN FHA and plant fire
prevention/combustible hazards administrative control procedures to verify that the
conditions established in various fire protection licensing basis documents were satisfied.
The team performed walkdowns of the four selected plant fire-afeesFAs to observe
whether- the licensee's activities to limit fire hazards were implemented consistent with
procedures. The team reviewed the Januar- 1999 ,tQhrouh Dzemrber 2001 fire brigade
response fire emergency/incident reportsrOMI999, gli'2001, as well as the plant
Problem Evaluation Reports (PERs) resulting from fire, smoke, sparks, arcing, and
equipment overheating incidents for the years 1999 2001. This review was conducted to
assess the effectiveness of the fire prevention program and to identify any maintenance
or material condition problems related to fire incidents. Additionally, design control
procedures were reviewed to verify that plant changes were adequately reviewed for the
potential impact on the fire protection program, SSD equipment, and procedures as
required by SQN license conditions 2.C(16) and 2.C.(13).
The team walked down the primary fire brigade staging and dress-out areas to assess
the condition of fire fighting and smoke control equipment. Fire brigade personal
protective equipment located in the fire brigade housed dress-out area and lockers in the
serviee baiddidlt;frJbrfgade staging area were reviewed to evaluate equipment
accessibility and functionality. The team observed whether emergency exit lighting was
provided for personnel evacuation pathways to the outside exits as identified in the
National Firc Protection Asseciation (NFPA) 101, Life Safety Code. This review also
included examination of whether backup emergency lighting was provided for access
pathways to and within the fire brigade staging and dress-out areas in support of fire
brigade operations should power fail during a fire emergency. The adequacy of the fire
brigade self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBAs) was reviewed as well as the
availability of supplemental breathing air tanks.
The team reviewed the RGP oilrCi collection system enclosure drawings to verify
compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix R Section 111.0. This review included evaluation of
operator response procedures to determine if sufficient procedural guidance was
provided to the plant operators-so they would be able to identify an oil leak from the
lubrication system of one of the RCP motors and take appropriate action.
b. Findings
A nNon-cited violation (Green) of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2, was
identified for failure to ensure that one of the redundant trains of a system necessary to
achieve and maintain hot shutdown conditions in the event of a fire was free of fire
damage. Electrical cables fqr;redundant charging flow isolation valves 1-FCV-62-90 and
91 were located in Fire AreeFA FAA-029, the Auxiliary Building Corridor, without spatial
separation or fire barriers.
For a fire in FAA-029, the FHA indicated that reactor coolant system (RCS) inventory
control was achieved through isolation of normal charging and letdown while maintaining
RCP seal flow cooling. Through review of associated system prints and safe shutdown
procedures AOP-N.01 and AOP-N.08, the team noted that the steps to achieve charging
flow isolation while continuing RCP seal flow cooling from the main control room was to
close either valve 1-FCV-62-90 or 91. These valves were in series and powered from
redundant power sources. The FHA indicated that power and control cables for both
these valves were routed closer than the 20 feet specified in Appendix R, IlI.G.2.b in a
relatively small sub-area of Fif-AreieFA FAA-029. Conduit Drawings 1,2-45N824-7 and
1,2-45N824-16 depicted the routing for these cables. From a walkdown of the cable
routing the team verified that there was a location where the unprotected cables for
valves 90 and 91 were separated by approximately 16 feet such that they could be
damaged by a severe fire. The team noted that, in lieu of protecting the 90 and 91
cables in accordance with Appendix R, so they could be operated from the main control
room, the-licensee incorporated steps in the shutdown procedure AOP-N.08 to
manipulate manual valve 537 or 539. - --
The fact that cables for both the charging flow isolation valves could be damaged by a
credible fire in FAA-029 had greater than minor significance because it could affect the
RCP seal injection flow and RCP seal integrity. The finding was found to have credible
impact on safety in that fire damage to the unprotected cables could prevent closure of
the valves from the MCR and challenge the operators' ability to establish adequate flow
to the RCP seals. The ignition frequency for the sub-area in question was taken from
thetheSQN IPEEE as 1.85E-3 per year. The team observed that fire detection and
suppression was installed throughout Fire AreaE, FAA-029. Manual suppression
capability and the automatic suppression system were deemed to be in the normal
operating state by the team. The fire mitigation frequency was conservatively calculated
to be once per 1 05 years. The missing barrier condition existed for greater than 30 days.
Based on these factors, the finding was processed using the Phase 2 transient sheet and
subsequently characterized by the Significance Determination Process as having very
low risk significance (Green). This was because the ignition frequency was relatively low,
fire detection and suppression systems were not degraded, and there were no
components in this area whose failure would result in an accident initiator (i.e., loss of
offsite power, loss of main feedwater, etc.) so the finding only affects the mitigating
systems cornerstone.
The findinQ. i.e. cables-for~ brothct
~ with aii a firebp'nibr
provide 20 foot separa ibetiveen'redudaht charging flow isolation valves-beif
unprotected by a barrier and routed with less than 20 feet separation, is a violation of 10
CFR 50, Appendix R, l1l. G. 2. b, which requires that unprotected cables of redundant
trains be separated by a horizontal distance of greater than 20 feet. The violation is
being treated as a nNon-cited violation and is identified as NCV 50-327/02-003-01. The
licensee documented the violation in PER 02-03645.
.03 Post-Fire SSD Circuit Analysis
a. Inspection Scope
On a sample basis-,4the team verified that*selected cables of equipment required to
achieveand maintain hot shutdown conditions in the event of fire in selected fire
e'easFAs had been properly identified and either adequately protected from the
potentially adverse effects of fire damage or analyzed to show that fire-induced faults
(e.g., hot shorts, open circuits, and shorts to ground) would not prevent safe shutdown.
The team selected power, control and instrumentation circuits indicated to be credited for
safe shutdown in the licensee's FHA and walked down the routing of the circuits. The
circuits selected were:
Fire Area FAA-067: 1--L068-335, Pressurizer level indication
Fire Area FAC-009: FI-3-163C, Auxiliary feedwater flow to steam generator 1.
Fire Area FAC-20: Diesel generator start button
Additionally, on a Sample basis the team reviewed thesected licensee's electrical
coordination studies to verify that fire induced faults on energized non-shutdown circuits
would not prevent the success of the SSD functions. Specifically.the team reviewed
overcurrent protection devices related to the control circuit for centnfugi a gnpump
iCCP) 1A from power sopurce at 125 volt (V) vital battery board 1 to the circuit breaker
close and trip circuits. MTti manufacturer's time-current characteristics were checked
and installed devices were examined and compared to design information. With
regard t eed tehe coordination of overcurrent devices on the alternatirq_
current (AC) svstem, the team determin eU: From the licensee's FHA-whhthejam
reydithbse buses were credited for a fire in fire ereainFA FM-029. Phase faults and
ground faults on the 6.9 kV system were considered, and a review of the 6.9kV system
coordination was performed for a phase fault on a cable emanating from 480 V shutdown
board 1A1-A, reactor MOV board IAI-A and ERCW MCC 1A-A. To the extent possible
installed devices were examined and compared to design documents.
b. Findings
[this section may be deleted based on additional licensee review of eondition]
The team identified a peffefmanee issue of very low signifleanee involvingmi
coordination of overcurrent protection relays.
The team reviewed the coordination between evereurrent relay G51 CN installed at the
neutral of common station service transformer C 6.9 kV (CGST-C) y winding and
overcurrent relay 5IN relay which was installed at circuit breaker 1418 to provide
protcetion against excess eurrent as a result of excess current on Start Bus 10. The
team noted through review of electrical one line drawings of the distribution system that
the RGPo for both units were powered from Start Bus 1B and Start Bus 2B. The team
determined that if a level single line to ground fault of 6OO A was generated on
fower
Start Bus 1B or cables connecting the start bus to the associated unit boards, the 51N
relay may not respond due to the COO A ground fault being below the 51N's pick up set
point. in contrast, the G51 GN relay was set at 72 A, which was low enough to trip
breakers and de energize theLSST-R G whieh supplied both Start Bus 10 and Start Bus
2B. The team determined that due to the inadequate coordination between the G51 GGN a.
single line to ground fault on start bus 10 could result in a Unit I trip duoto loss of criticl
loads such as fRPs. More significantly, the tripping of the CSST rather than the start
bus could result in the tripping of not just Unit 1 but Unit 2 as well.
This issue has a credible impact on safety due to the increased likelihood of the loss of
critical loads such as the RC-Ps on both units. This issue affects the initiating events
cornerstone due to the potential to increase the likelihood that the Start Bus 2B would trip
as a result of a ground fault on the other unit. As the finding does not contribute to
likelihood of a less of coolant accident (LOCA) initiator, affect mitigation equipment, nor
inzrcaWc+thc>^,=.<*!<h~ of afiroor oo, t .finding screened as Green.
.i--r
.04 Alternative Shutdown (ASD) Cavabilitv
a. -inspection Scope-
The team reviewed the licensee's procedures for fire response and ASD capability for the
fire -eeasFAs selected to verify conformance with applicable requirements as discussed
in Section 1R05.01 above. This review included the licensee's ASD methodology to
determine the adequacy of the identified components and systems to achieve and
maintain safe shutdown. The review also included verifying that the methodology
addressed achieving and maintaining hot and cold shutdown from outside the MCR, with
or without off-site power available. The team also reviewed the licensee's procedures to
verify their consistency with the calculations and assumptions supporting the operator
actions identified in the ASD methodology.
Additionally, for eesesThetarem 'selected severaaciruit where th control or
instrumentation devices were fffiined tobe located at the auxiliary control panel or
other local panelst,;jZhe team reviewed-the relevant drawings to determine whether
isolation devices were ao sig ned into the circuitry as appropriate. The
following circuits ed:
-* Control circuit for the centrifugal charging pump
- AFW flow to the steam generator FI-3-163C
- Volume control tank outlet isolation valve LCV-62-132 (MOV)
- Source range flux monitor XI-92-5
Verify fied that hot and cold shutdown eandid be maintained frorrn.
- outside the MCR without offsite power was addressed through the review of Emergency
diesel generator(EDG) and breaker circuits.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.05 Operational Implementation of Alternative Shutdown Capabilitv
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed the operational implementation of post-fire safe shutdown capability
for a fire in the selected fire ereesF,60 to verify that: (1) the training program for licensed
and non-licensed personnel included alternative or dedicated SSD capability; (2)
personnel required to achieve and maintain the plant in hot standby from outside the
- MCR could be provided from normal onsite staff, exclusive of the fire brigade; (3)
adequate procedures existed for use during ASD; and (4)the licensee periodically
performed operability testing of the SSD instrumentation and transfer and control
functions. The team reviewed the contents of selected safe shutdown lockers to verify
-that-materials-needed-to-supportimplementation-of-operator actions specified in the ASD
procedures for hot standby were available and being-properly maintained. Fire brigade
staffing was reviewed to verify that it met the requirements of the licensee's fire
protection program. Training requirements were reviewed for the fire brigade members
and related support personnel such as incident commander (IC), reactor operator (RO),
senior reactor operator (SRO), and auxiliary operators to verify compliance with the
licensee's fire protection proaram. Lesson plans and job performance measures (JPMs)
were reviewed to verify t etdetermJnewheth4r ASD activities were included in the
training program.
Post-fire safe shutdown procedures for the selected areas were reviewed to determine if
adequate staffing and appropriate guidance was provided for the operators to identify
protected equipment and instrumentation and those recovery actions specified in post-
fire shutdown procedures. considered manpower needs for performing restorations and
area accessibility. Specific procedures reviewed included Abnormal Operating
Procedure (AOP)-N.01, Plant Fires, Revision (Rev)14; AOP-N.08, Appendix R Fire Safe
Shutdown, Rev 0; AOP-C.04, Shutdown From Auxiliary Control Room, Rev 4. Selected
procedure sections were walked down to verify that the procedures could be performed
within the times specified in the supporting calculations, given the minimum required
staffing level of operators, concurrent with a loss of offsite power. Additionally, the team
walked down the designated pathways and reviewed the licensee's smoke control
procedures, ventilation systems, and the availability of SCBAs to verify that
environmental conditions, such as smoke and heat, would not prevent operators from
performing the procedures.
b. Findings
One finding of very low safety significance (Green) was identified as a Aion-cited
violation (NCV) of Technical Specification (TS) 6.8.1.a. for inadequate procedure
guidance related to the transition from AOP-N.01, Plant Fires, to AOP-C.04, Shutdown
From Auxiliary Control Room, in the event of a severe fire in the Control Building.
On March 27, 2002, the team identified that the guidance contained in AOP-N.01 was not
adequate to transition operators to AOP-C.04, in that, AOP-N.01 did not clearly delineate
what conditions would require entry into AOP-C.04 and evacuation of the MCR. Also,
AOP-N.01 did aledt6 direct operators to enter AOP-C.04 in the event of a severe fire
in the ControlBuildina. Jhe lack of clear guidance in AOP-N.01 was noted during a
walkthrough bth6teatmofjt5e procedures AOP-N.01 and AOP-C.04 with operations
personnel. The team observed that the 6fk'ade-ate"guidance in AOP-N.01
appeared to contribute to the operators' confusion regarding the erntry conditions for
AOP-C.04 and the transition from AOP-N.01 to AOP-C.04. This tRn determ'ned that:
the 'confusion could cause the oDerator to delay entry into AOP-C.64idth'e,
peqrformanceof timel&itiLaOLASDactiorns.
This finding had a credible impact on safety, in that the inadequate guidance in
procedure AOP-N.01 could delay entry into AOP-C.04 and could challenge the operators'
ability-to perform certain critical safe shutdown functions (e.g., isolate normal charging,
establish adequate seal injection flow to the RCPs) within the times specified in licensee
-calculation SQN-SQS4-0127, Equipment Required for Safe Shutdown Per 10 CFR50
Appendix R, Rev 21. This finding affected the mitigating systems cornerstone and was
determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) using Attachment F to the
Significance Determination Process (SDP), because it did not affect fire detection, fire
suppression, or fire barriers.
Sequoyah Technical Specification 6.8.1.a. and Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev 2, Appendix
A, Item 6.v, requires, in part, that written procedures be established, implemented, and
maintained for plant operations during emergencies such as plant fires. Embodied in this
requirement is that the procedures have to be adequate. Contrary to the above, the
licensee failed to establish adequate procedural guidance in AOP-N.01, Plant Fires, to
provide sufficient guidance to operators with regard to what conditions would require
entry into AOP -C.04 for safe shutdown from outside of the MCR.
Because of the very low safety significance of this issue and because the licensee has
entered this issue in their corrective action program as PER 02-003550, this violation is
being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section VL.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy.
This violation is identified as NCV 50-327, 328/02-03-02, Inadequate Procedure
Guidance for Implementing Abnormal Operating Procedures for Plant Fires.
The team noted other observations during the procedure reviews and walkthroughs
which could challenge operator performance of safe shutdown activities. The following
are examples of the types of observations identified:
thoroughness in that, a "tabletop review" was performed instead of a field validation.
- Time requirements specified in calculation SQN-SQS4-0127 for performing certain
critical safe shutdown functions were not incorporated into AOP-C.04.
- AOP-C.04, Checklist 5 required an excessive amount of time (more than 1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />) to
complete. The checklist appeared to contain various unnecessary items and was not
developed to minimize time. The team noted that an additional field validation of AOP-

- The team walked down the selected fi areasFAi to evaluate the adequacy of the fire
resistance of fire-earet barrier enclosure walls, ceilings, floors, structural steel
support protection, fire barrier penetration seals, fire doors, fire dampers, and electrical
raceway fire barrier systems (ERFBS) to ensure that at least one train of SSD
equipment was free of fire damage. IThe team observed the
wynai
material condition and configuration of the installed fire barrier features, as well as,
reviewed construction details and supporting fire endurance tests for the installed fire
barrier features. The team compared the observed fire barrier penetration seal
configurations to the design drawings and tested configurations. The team also
compared the penetration seal ratings with the ratings of the barriers in which they
were installed.
The team reviewed ASD procedures, selected fire fighting pre-plan procedures, and
heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to verify that access to remote
shutdown equipment and operator manual actions would not be inhibited by smoke
migration from one area to adjacent plant areas used to accomplish SSD.
In addition, the team reviewed the licensing documentation, Generic Letter (GL) 86-10
engineering evaluations of fire barrier features, and engineering evaluations for NFPA
code deviations to verify that the fire barrier installations met design requirements and
license commitments.

.10 Fire Protection Systems. Features, and Eguipment
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed flow diagrams, cable routing information, periodic test procedures,
engineering evaluations for NFPA code deviations, and operational valve lineup
procedures associated with the eIctrinc drivenhigh pressure seviJcterfire pumps
and fire protection water supply system. The review was to determine whether the
common fire protection water delivery and supply components could be damaged or
inhibited by fire-induced failures of electrical power suDplies or control circuits.
Additionally, team members walked down portions of the fire protection water supply
system in the selected areas to assess the material condition, operational effectiveness,
and whether the installed configurations were within the parameters of the engineering
evaluations.
The team verified that adequate fire protection features were installed in accordance with
the separation and design requirements fn"Appendix R to 10 CFR Part 50, Section
III.G.2. The team walked down accessible portions of the fire detection and alarm
systems in the selected plant areas to evaluate the engineering design and operation of
the installed configurations. The team also reviewed engineering drawings for fire
detector, spacing and locations Inthe selected plant areas to verify effectiveness of the
systems and compliance with the licensee's FPR and associated NFPA Gbode of
Rrecord. Team memberst walked down the selected areas with sprinklers to assure
proper placement and spacing of the sprinkler heads and the lack of sprinkler head
obstructions. The team-also reviewed design calculations to verify that the required fire
hose water flow and sprinkler system density for each protected area were available.
The team reviewed a sample of manual fire hose lengths to verify that they could reach
the SSD equipment. Additionally, the team verified whether the-design and placement of
the manual fire fighting fire hose equipment and fire extinguishers were properly reflected
in the fire brigade pre-fire plans.
The team reviewed the adequacy of the desicin and installation of the carbon dioxide
(CO2 ) fire suppression system for fife ereathefA FAC-009, the Unit 1 Auxiliary
instfurnent Room.- This review included C02 fire suppression system controls to assure
accessibility and functionality of the system and associated ventilation system fire
dampers. IThe team also reviewed licensee design calculations, vendor certifications,
and pre-operational test data to verify that the required quantity of CO2 for the areas was
available. Additionally, the team reviewed several drawings, schematics, flow diagrams,
and evaluations associated with the area floor drain system to verify that systems and
operator actions required for alternative SSD would not be inhibited through potential
leakage from C02 fire suppression activities.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.11 Compensatorv Measures
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed several licensee identified deficiencies, which dealt with maintaining
one redundant train of SSCs free from fire damage in accordance with 10 CFR 50
Appendix R III.G.2. The review was performed to verify that the risk associated with the
adverse conditions were properly assessed and adequate compensatory measures

The team presented the inspection results to Dennis Cole, and other members of
licensee mana ement and staff at the conclusion of the inspection on March 28-29, 2002
and on Aprl licensee acknowledged the findings presented. No
T24,2OO2.the
proprietary information is included in this report.
40A7 Licensee Identified Violations
The following findings of very low significance were identified by the licensee and are
violations of NRC requirements which met the criteria of Section Vl of the NRC
Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600 for being dispositioned as NCVs.
NCV Tracking Number Requirement Licensee Failed to Meet
50-327, 328/02-03-03 10 CFR 50 Appendix III.J states that emergency lighting
units with at least an 8-hour battery power supply shall be
provided in all areas needed for operation of safe
shutdown equipment and in access and egress routes
thereto. The licensee identified during a self-assessment
that the need for emergency lighting for the 1(2) FGV-63-
G00!-gFCqY`63 001 had not been provided. Manual
operation of these valves is required in the event of a
severe fire in accordance with licensee shutdown
procedures.-The-failure to provide adequate illumination of
manual actions required for safe shutdown is identified as
a Aon-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix R III.J. The
issue is in the licensee's corrective action program as PER
02-000550-000 (Green).
50-327, 328/02-03-04 10 CFR 50 Appendix R Il.G. 2. states that except as
provided for in paragraph G.3 of this section, where cables
or equipment, including associated non-safety circuits that
could prevent operation or cause maloperation due to hot
shorts, open circuits, or shorts to ground, of redundant
trains of systems necessary to achieve and maintain hot
.shutdown conditions are located within the same h&e
ereaFA outside of primary containment, one of the
following means of ensuring that one of the redundant
trains is free of fire damage shall be provided: (a.)
Separation of cables and equipment and associated
non-safety circuits of redundant trains by a fire barrier
having a 3-hour rating. Structural steel forming a part of or
supporting such fire barriers shall be protected to provide
fire resistance equivalent to that required of the barrier;
(b.) Separation of cables and equipment and associated
non-safety circuits of redundant trains by a horizontal
distance of more than 20 feet with no intervening
combustible or fire hazards. In addition, fire detectors and
an automatic fire suppression system shall be installed in
the fire-ee FA; or (c.) Enclosure of cable and equipment
and associated non-safety circuits of one redundant train
in a fire barrier having a 1-hour rating, In addition, fire
-~ - - detectors and an automatic fire suppression system shall
be installed in the fife a-reeFA. The licensee identified
during a self-assessment that as a result of inadequate
protection to the control/and or control cables a spurious
closure signal to the VCT level control valves was credible.
As the power cables for the RWST suctions valves are in
~
- ~ the same fife aeerea and not protected there was an
interaction which existed such that suction to both the VCT
and RWST could be lost. The licensee's failure to provide
adequate protection to prevent the operation or the
maloperation of cables or equipment necessary to achieve
and maintain hot shutdown is identified as a nNon-cited
violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix R III.G.2. JThe issue is in
the licensee's corrective action program as PER 02-
000576-000 (Green).
