Harold R. Denton, Director Office of fiuclear Reactor Regulation

SUBJECT:

RULE Oil FIRE PROTECTI0ii PROGRAM FOR i;UCLEAR POWER PLAriTS OPEPATIliG PRIOR TO JA!!UARY 1,1979 (SECY-80-483A)

Enclosed are revisions to Sections III.G.2., III.G.3. and III.L.7 of the proposed fire protection rule. These revisions supercede all others concerning these Sections previously proposed by the staff.

The staff recomends these revisions, whether these three Sections are made applicable only to pre-79 operating plants where the issues involycd are still open, or whether these Sections are backfit to all pre-79 operating plants.

The purpose of the revision to III.G.2 is threefold--minor technical improvenents; naking the requirements of the Section applicable to non-safety associated circuits; and providing for accepting devittions froa the requirements of this Section by exemption, rather than by use of an* equivalent" clause within the Section itself.

I believe the former method for accepting deviations is more appropriate here, since. it would better assure consistency of. treatment in this key area of the fire protection program.

The purpose of the revision to III.G.3 is to add a requirement for providing fire detection and. fire protection systems, which was inadverterfly omitted.
