The Fire Protection Program implements the philosophy of defense-in-depth protec tion against the hazards of fire and its associated effects on equipment important to safety by: Preventing fires from starting Rapidly detecting, controlling and promptly extinguishing fires that do occur Providing protection for structures, systems, and components important to safety so that a fire not promptly extinguished by fire suppression activities will not prevent safe shutdown of the plant. The Fire Protection Program is required by Operating License Condition 2.C.4, which specifically states: "NSPM shall implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the Updated Safety Analysis Report for the facility and as approved in the SER dated August 29, 1979, and supplements dated February 12, 1981 and October 2, 1985, subject to the following provision: NSPM may make changes to the approved fire protection program without prior approval of the Commission only if those changes would not adversely affect the ability to achieve and maintain safe shutdown in the event of a fire." This Appendix describes those fire protection related organizational responsibilities, administrative and technical controls, fire suppression and detection systems, fire hazards analyses, and the post-fire safe shutdown methods, which comprise the Fire Protection Program. This Appendix is divided into the following sections: Section 1 - Introduction - Background and objectives. Section 2 - Licensing Summary - Summary of past submittals and evaluations related to fire protection and post-fire safe shutdown evaluations at MNGP.Section 3 - Comparison to Regulatory Guidance - Comparison of the MNGP Fire Protection Program against the guidance contained in Standard Review Plan 9.5-1 (1976). Section 4 -Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Analysis - Description of the post fire safe shutdown capability and evaluation of the adequacy of the separation of the redundant systems to ensure post fire safe shutdown. Section 5 - Updated Fire Hazards Analysis
- Evaluation of the adequacy of the plant fire protection features to control and contain the fire hazards within each plant area. 01197746
