Fire Protect fan Systems t

Operability of the fire detection fnstrwentatfon ensures that adequate earning capabflfty fs available for the prompt detection of fires.

This capability fs required fn order to detect and locate fires ln their early stages.

Prompt detection of fires wfli reduce the potential for damage to safety related equipment, and fs an integral element In the overall facility fire protectfon program.

In the event that a portion of the fire detection fnstrumentatlon fs Inoperable, the establishment of frequent fire insnections in the affected areas fs required to provide detection capability until the inoperable lnstrumentatfon is returned to service.

.The operahflfty of the fire suppression systems ensures that adequate fire suppression capability is available to conffne and extinguish fires occurring fn any portion of the facility where safety related equipment fs located.

The fire suppression system consists of the water system, sprfnklers, COi systemsi Ihlon svstem, and fire~

stations, arxl is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety related equipnent, and is a major element in the facility fire protection proqram.

In the event that portions of the fire suppression system are inoperable, alternate backup fire

~ fighting equfpnent fs required to be made available fn the affected areas until the affected equipment ran be restored to service.

h fire suppression

~ater systole shall consist of a water source,

pumps, and distribution piping wfth associated valves.

Such valves shall include sectional control valves, and the first valve ahead of the water flow alarm device on each sprinkler or hose standpfpe r'fser.

In the event that the fire suppression water.

system becomes inoperable.

hmedfaf.e corrective measures must be taken since this system provides the major'ire suppression capability of the plant.

The requirement for a 24-hour report of the Conmfssfon provides for prompt

This design feature mfnfmfzes the possfbf1 fty of a single fire rapidly involving several areas of the facility prior to detection and extln-gufshment.

The penetration fire barriers are a passfve element fn the facfllty r fre pro-
