ABSTRACT (Umit to 1400 spaces, i.e., approximately 15 single-spaced typewritten lines) (16)

On 6/1/92, the fi.re protection for multiple areas of the Plant was declared inoperable due to the uncertainties regarding the fire proofing material used to protect components and cabling within those areas. Compensatory actions required by the Technical Specifications (TS) were established. On 2/11/94, a routine review of completed Fire Watch (FW) patrol records identified three (3) discrepancies in which an hourly FW patrol on the Essential Service Water (ESW) pump room was not conducted for a period of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 29 minutes on 12/28/93, 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 38 minutes on 12/30/93 and 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 29 minutes on 12/31/93.

Additional reviews were conducted and identified one (1) additionalU-1 discrepancy in which an hourly FW patrol was not conducted on the CD Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) room for 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 22 minutes on 2/24/94.

A random monitori,ng program has been developed to review FW tours. These events, lessons learned from these events, and management expectations were conveyed to Plant Protection personnel. FW patrol training and implementing procedures are being revised to incorporate the lessons learned from these events.

(,,

On 2/11/94, a routine review of completed FW patrol tour records associated with TS related Fire Doors (FD) and other non.>>safety related FD for the months of November and December 1993, and January 1994, was conducted. This review revealed five discrepancies attributed to a single FW individual at the Unit 1 ESW pump room (door designation 1-GT-SCN212A-323).

From this review, the FW tour records generated by this individual for the time period November 17 through December 31, 1993 were examined to determine the extent of the problem. Twenty-two (22) total discrepancies were identified for this individual. Of the 22 discrepancies, three (3) were determined to have exceeded the requirements of TS 3.7.10. The other nineteen (19) were determined to have violated procedural requirements. No compensatory actions were taken as this review was of past events.

Based on these two reviews, a review was conducted of an additional 10% of the TS related FW patrols/tours and other non-safety related FW and FD tours for the period December 1993 through February 1994. This review identified six (6) additional procedural violations and one (1) discrepancy that had exceeded the requirements of TS 3.7.10. The discrepancy involved the U-1 CD EDG room.

CAUSE OF EVENT For the documentation reviewed, it appears the cause was the failure of the individual(s) to perform their assigned duties. A contributing cause to these events was that management follow-up/monitoring of activities did not identify the discrepancies.

AL SIS OF EVENT The TS 3.7.10 action statement for an inoperable fire rated assembly requires that "...within 1 hour: 1) verify that the fire detectors and/or fire suppression system on at least one side of the inoperable assembly are OPERABLE and establish an hourly fire watch patrol, or 2) establish a continuous fire watch patrol on one side of the penetration...".

Failure to maintain an hourly FW patrol was a violation of TS 3.7.10 and is reportable under 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B).

The U-1 ESW pump room (Fire Zone 29-G) and U-1 CD EDG room (Fire Zone 15) was being toured because it contains fire protective coating material which the Plant declared inoperable on 6/1/92. The hourly FW patrol was not conducted for a period of 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 29 minutes on 12/28/93, 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 38 minutes on 12/30/93 and 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 29 minutes on 12/31/93 in the ESW pump room.

NALYSIS OF EVENT cont'd EDG room. The analysis of this event concludes that in the unlikely event of a fire, personnel would have been promptly aware of its presence and would have extinguished the fire without significant spreading of the fire or equipment damage. This conclusion is based on the following:

The detection for FZ 29-G and FZ-15 was in an operable state, in the event of a fire, the detectors would have alarmed in the U-l Control Room, which is manned 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day. This alarm condition would have been investigated and the appropriate Fire Brigade resources would have been dispatched to mitigate the fire. 1 2 Manual fire protection equipment was readily available for Fire Brigade

Therefore, these events are not considered to have created a significant safety concern, nor did significant hazard to the health and safety of the general public.

it create a CORRECTIVE ACTION A random monitoring program was developed to review fire watch tours.

2 ~ These events, lessons learned and management expectations were conveyed to Plant Protection personnel during meetings held during the month of May 1994.

3 ~ Fire Watch patrol training and implementing procedures are being revised to incorporate the lessons learned from these events.
