Operation under this speci fication is not considered to be in a degraded mode and thus is not reportable under Technical specification 6.6.2.1.b.(2).
3.17-2 Amendments Nos.
92, 90 & 95
3.17.5 The fire hose stations listed in Table 3.17-1 shall be operable or the following action shall be taken:
- 1. If a fire hose station listed in Table 3.17-1.is inoperable, an additional equivalent capacity fire hose of length sufficient to reach the unprotected area shall be provided at an operable hose station within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.
- 2. If the inoperable fire hose station cannot be restored to operable status within 14 days, continued operation of the affected unit is permitted provided that within the next 30 days a report is submitted to the Commission outlining the cause of the inoperability, actions taken, and the plans for restoring the system to operable status.
Operation under this specifica tion is not considered to be a degraded mode and is not report able under Technical Specification 6.6.2.1.b(2).
3.17.6 All fire barrier penetrations (including cable penetration barriers, fire doors, fire dampers) protecting safety related areas.shall be operable.
If a fire barrier protecting a safety-related area is determined to be inoperable, the operability status of the fire detection instru mentation for the affected safety related area(s) shall be determined within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, and the following action shall be taken:
- 1. If the fire detection instrumentation for the affected area(s) is operable, a fire watch patrol shall be established to inspect the area at least once per hour.
- 2. If the fire detection instrumentation is inoperable, a contin uous fire watch shall be established within the next hour on at least one side of the affected penetration fire barrier. The non-functional fire barrier penetration(s) shall be restored to functional status within 7 days.
- 3. If the non-functional fire barrier penetration(s) cannot be re stored to functional status within., days, continued operation of the affected unit is permitted provided that within the next 30 days, a report is submitted to~the-Commission outlining the cause of the inoperability and the plans for restoring the sys tem to operable status.
Operation under this specification is not considered to be a degraded mode and is not reportable under Technical Specification 6.6.2.1.b(2).
Bases Operability of the fire detection instrumentation ensures that adequate warning capability is available for the prompt detection of fires. This capability is required in order to detect and locate fires in their early stages.
Prompt detection of fires will reduce the potential for damage to safety related equip ment and is an integral element in the overall facility fire protection program.
3.17-3 Amendments Nos. 98, 98 & 95
In the event that a portion of the fire detection instrumentation is inoperable, the establishment of frequent fire patrols in the affected areas is required to provide detection capability until the inoperable instrumentation is restored to operability.
The operability of the fire suppression systems ensures that adequate fire sup pression capability is.
available to confine and extinguish fires occurring in any portion of the facility where safety-related equipment is located. The fire suppression system consists of the water system spray and/or sprinklers, fire hose stations, and penetration fire barriers. The collective capability of the fire suppression systems is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety related equipment and is a major element in the facility fire protection program.
In the event that portions of the fire suppression systems are inoperable, alternate backup fire fighting equipment is required to be made available in the affected areas until the inoperable equipment is restored to service.
In the event the fire suppression water system becomes inoperable, immediate corrective measures must be. taken since this system provides.the major fire suppression capability of the plant.. The requirement for a twenty-four hour report to the Commission provides for prompt evaluation of the acceptability of the corrective measures to provide adequate fire suppression capability for the continued operation of the nuclear plant.
The functional integrity of the penetration fire barriers ensures that fires will be confined or adequately retarded from spreading to adjacent portions of the facility. This design feature minimizes the possibility of a single fire rapidly involving several areas of the facility prior to detection and extinguishment. The penetration fire barriers are a passive element in the facility fire protection program and are subject to periodic inspections.
During periods of time when a barrier is not functional, a fire watch patrol will be required to inspect the affected area frequently as a precaution in addition to the fire detection instrumentation in the area.
If fire detec tion instrumentation.in the area is not operable, a continuous fire watch is required to be maintained in the vicinity of the affected barrier until the barrier is restored to functional status.
