Review Status: Complete The Auxiliary Systems Branch has completed its review of the Davis Bessa Nucleat Station Unit No.1, Fire Protection Program. The Fire Protection Prugram was reviewed in c:cordance with Appendix A to Branch Technical Position AS8 9.5-1.

Table 1 of the SER presents an acceptable schedule for implementation of improvements under way or planned for the plant fire protection program.

The licensee has coenitted to isolement emergency shutdown procedures and modifications to maittain hc. shutdown capability by February 28 1979, and to assure safe cold shutdown independent of the cable spread-ing room or the control room by October 31,1979. These dates are

{

consistent with the operating license provisions.

i Based on our review, we find that the licensee's firepprotection program with iwrovements alrea# made by the licensee, is adequate thetbeepeetent time and with the scheduled modifications will meet the guidelines of Appendix A to Branch Technical Position 9.5-1, and meets General Design Criterion 3 and is, therefore, acceptable.

B. Grimes Until the co::nitted fire protection system inaprovements are operational, we consider the existing fire detection and suppression systems; the existing barriers between fire areas; improved administrati~ e procc-v dures for control of combustibles and ignition sourec3; the trained onsite fire brigade; the capability to extinguish fires manually; and the fire protection technical spacificaticas provide adequate protec-tion against a fire that would threaten safe shutdown.
