ENCLQSURE 1 Nebraska Public Power District Cooper Nuclear Station i
Docket No. 50-298 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Based on the results of an NRC inspection conducted during the period July 22-26, l
and Augr et 4-7, 1980, it appears that certain of your activities were not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements and your Operating License DPR-46 as indicated below:
A.
Technical Specification 3.19 requires that:
"3.19.A Fire Barrier and Fire Wall Penetration Fire Seals integrity shall be maintained.
3.19.3 If the requirement of 3.19.A cannot be met, a ontinuous fire watch shall be established on at least one side of the penetra-tion within one hour."
Contrary to the above, an approximately 1115 hours0.0129 days <br />0.31 hours <br />0.00184 weeks <br />4.242575e-4 months <br /> on July 25, 1980, the inspector found a breached fire wall penetration between the Cable Spread-ing room and the "B" DC Suitchgear and Battery Charger room.
No fire watch was posted.
Subseq.er. investigation indicates that the fire wall penetration was breached during the installation of Conduit Number DC-25 as a part of Major Design Change 76-2, which was completed on June 10, 1977, and apparently remained undiscovered in this condition until found by the inspector. The licensee immediately repaired the penetration.
This is an infraction.

Technical Specification 6.3.2 states in part:
" Written integrat,ed and system procedures and instructions including applicable check off lists shall be provided and adhered to for.
. E.
Implementing procedures for the fire protection program."
Plant Administration Procedure 1.4.16, Control of Fire Doors, states:
"1.4.16.2.3 Category 3 - Fire Doors In Safety-Related Areas That Require A Fire Watch.
This category includes all doors within safety-related areas that are not common to the security system.
These doors will normally be maintained in the closed position.
If the door is equipped with an automatic closure device (fusible link) it may be left open and unobstructed with-out requiring a fire watch, but should be returned to the closed position is soon as practical.
If the door must be 8 010 0100IF
2 obstructed so as to prevent it from closing securely a continuous fire watch must be established within one (1) hour on at least one side of the door.
Special circum-stances may allow the fire watch requirement to be waived by the Shift Supervisor."
Contrary to the above, on July 26, 1980, at approximately 1640 hours0.019 days <br />0.456 hours <br />0.00271 weeks <br />6.2402e-4 months <br /> the inspector found the door ~to the KPCI Pump Room propped open.
This door is a Category 3 fire door.
No fire watch was posted and the Shift Supervisor was not aware that the door was left open or that the requirement for a fire watch had been waived.
This is an infraction.
