Fire Protecti@ Plan Review

/

cackground Consuuers Power cuiapany suouitteo an updateo Fire Prutection Plan via Revision 35 to the FSAR in July 1981. Division of Licensing has established a target date of 140vecher 6,1961 for preparation of a draf t SEK on this seguent of the F5AR. Tne staf f and applicant uutually agreed that a aceting to resolve open itcas would be beneficial at this tue. Such a meeting was held at the IIC bethesda offices on uctober 7,1961.

A list of meeting attendees is attacned as Enclosure 1.

The meeting agenda is attached as Enclosure 2.

Discussion After introduction of personnel ano a orief overview of the meeting purposit, 11r. Benaroya stated tnat the revised Stancard Review Plan has been published and snculo be obtained and used by CPCo in evaluating the aJequacy of the Midland Fire Protection Progra:a (FPP). CPCc was also advised that a full written coaparison between the requirements of Appendix R and how the itidlana FPP complies with tnose requirements should be developed prior to the Comission decision date. The Staff also suggested that it would be beneficial for future reviews of the Hidland plant if the Midland FSAR was revised to confor:a to the new SRP 9.5.1.

CPCo said it could not co.aplete a major refornatting of the Fire Evaluation Report prior to issuance of the operating license.

CPCo passed out and ciscussed a partial comparisort to Appendix R and stated that the coupleted cooperison would be available of October 23,1981 (Enclosure 3).

Mr. Benaroya advised deletion of certain words in tueu " Description of Corpliance" colunn for item G.2.

Problem areas typically encountered in cocplying with sections III.G and III.L of Appendix R were specifically discussed. CPCo stated that the Midland FPP takes credit for adainistrative controls in the Containment. The staff's position was that this woulc. probably suffice curing operation but that additional require.nents are necessarj curing ueintenance and refueling periods during which containr.,ent accessability exists.

In response to a Staff question, CPCo stated that not all circuits on the auxiliary shutdown panel (A5P) are electrically isolated froa tne uain coritrol roca (hCR). All channel A circuits on the A5P considered necessary for achieving and r.:aintaining hot standby have l avi a nd i v...

A discussion of the r.(thodology for tue sate shutdown analysis was presented by CPCo. A circuit uy circuit evaluation was perforned and a detailed circuit schedule developed.

The makeup punp sys'em was selected as ari exavple arid a walk-througn of the procecure used was given. Color-coded couponent loca tions drawings and conduit / cable tray schematics were used in deteraining possible areas of noncoupliance. The Hidland design provides for a manually initiated transfer of control circuits for 4 safe-shutduwn systens on Train A to an auxiliary shutdown panel in the event of a control roca fire. Those systems are auxiliary feedwater, cuergency diesel m nerators, component cooling water and service water. uther systens wc ad be remotely operated frou outside of the control room at their individual notor control centers.

The analysis revealed that approxiaately 50 control and inoication circuits for each unit had inadequate electrical isolation and LPCo stated that the probacle solution would be to provide isolation with transfer switches.

The tupact of these cualfications as well as tne overall uilestone scnedule was briefly discussed. The handouts used for the safe snutuown enalysis are attached as Lnclosure 4.

The staff questioned how "as-built" conditions, such us actual conduit roating would be f actcred into this analjsis. LPLo stateo tnat updates of tiie diagracis and sjstes walkuonns would be a continuing process until installation was co...plete.

or the aat walkdown of the The statf was questioneu regarding the tininu fire protection systen. The staf f reiterated its previous position that the walkdown would not be scheduled prior to installation of at least 90% of all required cabling since the pri..;e purpose of the walkduan is tu verify final or near-final as built configurations.

The Laseload Forecast Panel for nioland was told in nu9ust 19o1 that installation of wire and cable was Las complete.

It is presently anticipated that the tire protection walkdcwn could be scheduled as early as uid-1982.

Ine next pn e of toe eeeting dealt specifically with control roca fires. lnere has been some misunderstav Jinj regarding assuaptions and requiren.ents concerning fires in tne control rumi.

In a peeting on April 16, 1961, the staff agreed to provide clarification of its position whether loss of nore tnan one cabinet by a centrol roon fire need be considered.

See Enclosure 6.

The specific case in question was a panel containing a series of logic instruoents for both trains of safe shutdown comporients.

CPLo questioned unether this panel (ICitb7 or 2Ll66) constituted 'several cabinets" since each instrunent section is separated frot1 adjacent instrument sections by sheet n.etal partitions or whether the panel was considered to be one caninet frm1 the standpoint of a control roou fire.

The staff's position was that tne sheet u.etal partitions do not constitute tire barriers and therefore the panel is considereo to be all one cabinet. The concern in this instance, however, is not propajation of fire troa one section to another within the cabinct but rather propagation of an exposure (external) fire to more than one instruuent section within the cab. net. One possibl remedy for this problea wnica was discussed would be to erect a l-hour fire barrier around the caninet and install ari auto..atic halon suppression syste.a. LPio will evaluate corrective action. A second area, tne safety related equipe.ent roaa for eacn reactor, was also discussed troni the stdiidpoint of protection tral control room fires.

Tne previously identified problem (discussed during the April 15, 1981 ceeting) of having only lo feet separation between the Auxiliary Shutdown Panel (2C114) and the Auxiliary Feedwater Control kack was discussed.

The staff indicated that an acceptable solution would be to erect an 8 f t. high 1-nour tire barrier and din eutouatic lialon suppression syste:3.

The af ternoon session of the aceting was devoted to discussion of and response to (in soue cases) the 15 open items supplied to CPCo with the ueeting a gen th.. A stGMry of the ydestions dnd proposed resolutions is attdCned as Lnclosure 6.

Two questions of interpretation evolved from the af ternoon session. Tne first was wnether the requireuent that " detection systems should oe provided for all areas tnat contain or present a fire exposure to safety-related equipmeat" (section C.6.a.(1) of BTP ChEB 9.5-1) applies to areas Containing Jdfety-related cable but no safety-related components (i.e.

does "equipnent" includc cable?). The other question is whether suone oetectors in uYAL system ducts were considered to provide adequate detection for the fire area itself. The staff responded that the duct detectors would not necessarily provide valid detection for the area due to allution and cooling.

CPCo described tue construction of missile and pressure relief doors identified in the fire area analysis of FSAR Section 9A.2.

because of tneir superior construction and securing occhanism, 'it was CPCo's judgement that these doors are equivalent to a 3-nour fire-rated door.

lue Staff stated taey were in agreement witn this position.

A short aiscussion on fire damper installation was held. The concern was that fire da;r.per installations do not meet taanufacturers' tested installa-tion details because of construction wall variances.

It was recomienced that the gap between the damper and the penetration oc sealed with steel angle iron so as to reseable the manufacturers' detail as closely as possible. This modification, waich would ensure that fire woulo not propogate through the penetration, would be satisf actory to the staff.

It became obvious curing tne af ternoon session that in or&* for a draf t Stri to be issued as presently scheduled, a mit would be needed to the aidland Plant Site by the CM.b reviewer and his fire protection consultant.

The final SER issuance dote was recently uoved up to day 1982 Dy aka. The final fire protection plant walkdown will not likely be able to be perforued until several months af ter tnat. Therefore, the Division of Licensing consioers intarim site visits necessary to support the early SLR date. The meeting was concluded with a statement of intention by the staff to schedule a site visit by CnLb in late October 1981.

In response to items froa the April 15, 1981, meeting between CPCo and tne Staff, the Staff said a failure taode analysis for fire protection woulo not be needed. The Stoff also pointed out that an exception to 10 CFR 60 Appendix R criteria would be required if automatic suppression is not installed in the main control roca.

_ Post-ffeetino Actions l

The following the meeting, Cf1EB nanagement was requested to provide clari-fication on the question discussed above, relating to whether or not detection systens nust be provided in fire areas containing only safety-related cable.

The staff's position is that cable is included under the definition of " safety related equip.1ent" and therefore detectio') nust be orovided in those areas.

ENCLOSURE 6 FIRE PROTECTION REVIEW OPEN ITEMS - MIDLAND 1/2 Question #1:

The staff will require early warning detection in all areas which contain safety-related equipment, conduit and/or cable trays.

Fire areas involved: 1, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 23, 24, 25, 33, 42, 43, 50, 52, 73C, 73D, 83, 89, 90, 91, 92.

Discussion:

The staff pointed out that fire detection is required in all areas containing at least one channel of safety-related systems and canponents. CPCo asked if cabling was defined as a component, and the Staff agreed to provide a res-ponse.

The Staff said that duct-mounted fire detectors are not acceptable and that area detectros should be used. CPCo said a review of the installation of fire detectors would be done.

Response

Areas 1, 7, 24, 25, 89, 90, 91, 92 - CPCo feels there is no problem -

reviewer need to visit plant site to agree.

Areas o, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 50, 52, 83 - CPCo must evaluate the need for detectors if the definition of safety-related equipment includer cables ( see summary).

Areas 23, 35

-2, 43 - CPCo agreed to evaluate the need for additional detector s in these areas.

Areas 73C, 730 - the staff agreed these areas presently meet requirements.

Question #2:

The staff Will require 1 1/2 inch fire hose stations for either primary or secondary protection for all areas containing safety-related equipment and/or cable trays - conduit.

Fire areas involved: 7, 9, 10, 718, 80, C7, 88, 95, 95A, 958, 95C.

r Discussion:

CPCo stated that there is an FSAR commitment to provide an effective hose stream to all plant areas and that field verification of this ability is under way. The Staff questioned whetner sufficient fire main and hydrant isclation was provided near the diesel gene. :or building and service water pump structure. CPCo said they would check this and add isolation valves, if necessary.

, Areas 7, 9,10, 80, 87 - CPCo feels there is no problem - reviewer needs to visit the plant site to agree.

Area 88 - CPCo will evaluate the addition of an isolation valve.

Areas 95, 95A, 95B, 95C - CPCo agreed to re-evaluate the need for additional hose stations.

Area 71B - the staff agreed this area presently meets requirements.

Question #3:

Has a postulated exposure fire been considered in all areas of the plant as outlined in Revision 35 and 37 of the Fire Hazards Analycis (FRA)?

Fire areas involved: 8,14, 15, 42, 43, 62, 64, 66, 73, k 73C, 74, 75, 89, 94.

Response

CPCo stated that a postulated exposure fire has, in fact, been considered for these areas in FSAR Section 9A.2.

Question #4:

Have automatic sprinklers been provided in all areas where 20 feet has not been obtained between redundant safety-related and for safe shutdown cable trays and/or equipmentf Fire areas involved: 11, 23, S1, 92, 93, 95

Response

CPCo stated that automatic sprinklers have been provided in all areas where safe shutdown cables do not meet separation criteria, unless an exposure fire is considered unlikely in the area. These cases are listed in FSAR Section 9A.2.

The Staff agreed that they would have to perform a visit to :he plant site to verify the adequacy of the design.

Question #5:

Fire barriers used for protection of safety-related equipment and/or cable trays should have a fire rating exceeding the in-situ combustibles and/or exposure fire.

Fire areas involved: 13, 24, 25, 39, 63 fasponse:

Areas 13, 39, 63 - After discussion, the staff agreed that t a present design meets the requirments.

Areas 24, 25 - The FSAR presently describes certain fire barriers as having a 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> rating when they in fact can be rated for 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br />.

CPCo agreed to amend the FSAR

4

.,,. i Question #6:

One hour ' fire rating on cable tray and/or conduits requires all structural supporting members to have the same fire rating.

Response

This requirement is understood and has been conplied with.

Question #7:

Need additional information on the fire retardant material used to achieve a one hour fire rating.

Response

This infonnation will be supplied after CPCo has selected which material will be used ts acnieve a 1-hour fire rating. The material selected will be subject to NRC approval. CPCo stated that a discussion of cable and tray wrapping is given in FSAR Subsection 8.3.3.

Question #8:

We will requiro rolling type fire doors +o separate the turbine building from other safety-related buildings.

Fire areas involved:

36, 39, 65

Response

CPCo stated that the doors in arecs 36 and 39 are dead doors and therefore rolling doors would not be appropriate. The reviewer stated that his j

agreement on all three areas was contingent upon a site-visit.

Question #9:

l Is hydrogen piping run through any safety-related areas?

Response

CPCo needs to complete a detailed plant walkdown prior to responding to i

t.his question. CPCo stated that it will verify whether large, high-pressure hydrogen piping for the turbine generator is run through areas containing safety-related comporents.

The Staff stated that its position on this piping is that it shoid be sleeved or relocated out of the safety-related area.

l l

,,.. Question #10:

Is a alternate shutdown provided for the control room such that safe hot shutdown c;n be achieved without its use and electrical circuits?

Responje:

This item was addressed in the discussion regarding safe shutdown and control room fires.

Question #11:

How does loss of transformer effect emergency diesels (area 98)?

.esponse:

CPCo stated that the diesels are not affected.

Question #12:

Is loss of ventilation systems alarmed in the control room?

Response

CPCo stated that alcrms have been included in the control room for high hydrogen concen; ration and loss of ventilation in the battery rooms as discussed in FSAR section 9A.l.7.

Question #13:

Was loss of offsite power considered in all cases for each area in the FHA?

Response

CPCo stated that loss of off-site powLr was considered in all cases.

Question #14 Isolation valves are needed for all laterals to each fire hydrant (ref.

page 9A.3-50).

Response

CPCo stated that post-indicating valves (PIV's) have been provided to meet the intent of the requirements. Addition of one more valve will be evaluated between the two laterals to the Diesel Generator building.

o... '

Question #14:

Does RCP meet ; Appendix -R -(ref: page 9A.3-58)?

Response

' A contract has -een issued to NUS Corporation to design a system that-will meet the requirement.
