Special R? port No.89-005, Unit 1 Fire Barrier Penetration open For More Than Seven Days he containment equipment hatch was open for more than seven days during I
the Unit 1 ninth refueling outage. We hatch was opened to support outage 12
. activities. We seven-day time limit for the equipment hatch was exceeded on October 30, 1989. Since the containment wall is considered to be a fire barrier, opening this hatch constitutes breaching a fire barrier.
Technical Specification 3.7.12 requires that, within one hour, either establish a continuous fire watch or verify the operability of fire detectors and establish an hourly fire watch patrol.. Technical
' specification action statement requirements were met in that personnel were present continuously when the hatch was'open. Technical Specification 3.7.12.also requires that breached fire barriers be restored to functional status within-seven days or a Special Report must be submitted within the following 30 days.- Due to the scope of the work in progress, it was not practical to close this-hatch within seven. days. Therefore, this Special
- Report is being submitted. The containment equipment hatch was closed on November 3, 1989.
