UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 December 15, 1989 Docket No. 50-220 Mr. Lawrence Burkhardt III Executive Vice President, Nuclear Operation Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation 301 Plainfield Road
- Syracuse, New York 13212
Dear Mr. Burkhardt:
SUBJECT:
CLOSE-OUT OF OPEN ITEMS RESULTING FROM THE GAGE-BABCOCK AUDIT OF THE FIRE PROTECTION PROGRAM (TAC NO. 72442)
Amendment No.
33 to Facility Operating License No.
DPR-63 for the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (NMP-l), was issued on July 26, 1979.
The amendment issued the Fire Protection Safety Evaluation Report (FPSER).
As part of the NMP-1 Restart Action Plan (RAP), Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation (the licensee) committed to evaluate and close out open items resulting from the Gage-Babcock audit of the Fire Protection Program.
By letter dated November 3, 1989, the licensee advised the staff that, as a
result of the audit, it was found that some installed modifications differed from the FPSER.
The licensee provided the staff with a case-by-case evaluation of the issues identified in Sections 3.1.8(1), 5.3.1.6, 4.3.1.6,
- 3. 1.9 and 5.4.3.6.
The licensee concluded that, although in three specific instances the installed modifications differ from the FPER, the differences do not result in a decrease in the effectiveness of the NMP-1 fire protection program.
The staff has reviewed the licensee's evaluation and agrees with the licensee's conclusion because in each case the identified difference satisfies the literal requirements of Appendix R to 10 CFR Part 50.
