Gentlemen:
MILLSTONE NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNIT NO. 1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION SUPPORTING EXEMPTION REQUEST FROM APPENDIX R Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (NNECO) provided to the NRC Staff in Reference (1) an assessment of the fire protection features at Millstone Unit No. 1 pursuant to the requirements of 10CFR50.48 and Appendix R to 10CFR Part 50.
In addition, our evaluation of the de-viations from Appendix R for each fire zone and proposed design modi-fications or proposed exemptions from the requirements of Appendix R were also provided. NNECO had previously requested an exemption from the schedular requirements of 10CFR50.48(c)(5), specifically for additional time to complete the actions described above, in Reference (2).
The Staff granted the schedular exemption request documented in Ref-erence (3) upon the condition that the submittal be complete as defined in Reference (3). Reference (3) also provided NNECO 'a grace period of 60 days in which to provide any supplemental information to that of Reference (1) in order to comply with the requirements of the exemption.

_ _ - _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ i The purpose of this document is to provide supplemental information to complement that contained in Reference (1) such that the conditions accompanying the Ref.erence (3) exemption are fulfilled. The insight gained by interacting with the Staff on the Haddam Neck Plant has been utilized during the preparation of this submittal.
i Specifically, the following information is provided within this document.
A o
Section I/ Appendix A - Revised and expanded discussions of l
f each exemption request.
o Section II - Administrative controls, o
Section III - Discussion of intervening combustibles, o
Section IV - A revised compliance summary including a discussion of the schedule for proposed modifications.
o Appendix A - Revised safe shutdown Fire Zone Analyses.
o Appendix B - Intervening combustibles.
o Appendix C - Compliance status.
Condition (1)a of Reference (3) is fulfilled in that concise statements of NNECO's exemption requests are provided in Appendix A.
Regarding the revised discussion on the exemption requests, the information provided is intended to fulfill conditions (1) b, and (1) e of Reference (3).
Condition (2) does not apply as alternative or dedicated shutdown systems are not being proposed.
1.
Fire Zone AnalysisSection VII of Reference (1) provided an evaluation of each fire zone at Millstone Unit No. I for compliance with the provisions of Appendix R.
Where compliance with Appendix R did not exist, modifications were proposed to bring the fire zone into compliance or an exemption from specific requirements of III.G.2 of Appendix R was and is being requested pursuant to 10CFR 50.48 (c)(6) and 10CFR 50.12(a).
Since the Reference (1) submittal, each exemption request has been re-evaluated. Several revised modifications have been engineered which have resulted in compliance for several fire zones. Each exemption request is described in Appendix A with additional discussions to support NNECO's remaining exemption requests.
It should be noted that in addition to the original seven fire zones for which NNECO had requested an exemption from the specific requirements of Appendix R, re-evaluations have resulted in the need for exemptions in ten specific fire zones. This change is the result of the identification of additional safe shutdown equipment in Fire Zones R-2D, T-5C, and T-19D for which existing fire protection features have been judged to fulfill the intent of Section III.G.2 of Appendix R but for which an exemption is required.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The fire zone analysis for each exemption is presented in a format identical to that of Reference (1). This will facilitate comparison of the discussions for each fire zone between Reference (1) and this document. Appendix A provides specific fire zone analyses for the following areas:
o Reactor Building Area R-2A R-2B R-2C R-2D o
Turbine Service Equipment Area Area T-5C o
Cable Vault Area T-16 o
Switchgear Area Area T-19A T-19D T-19B T-19E T-19C o
Control Room Area T-21 The ten exemption requests are described in Appendix A and supersede the exemption requests of Reference (1). The ten areas for which NNECO requests exemptions from specific requirements of Section III.G.2 of Appendix R are:
o Reactor Building Area R-2A R-2D o Cable Vault Area T-16 o Switchgear Areas T-19A T-19D T-19B T-19E T-19C o Control Room Area T-21 o Turbine Service Equipment Area Area T-5C II.
Administrative Controls Currently, administrative controls are used to ensure proper performance of safety systems and compliance with NRC regulations. Examples include:
maintaining proper boron concentrations and levels in various o
tanks for safety-related applications, mitigating actions in the event of undervoltage conditions, o
personnel radiation exposure limitations, and o
implementing the security plan and the safeguards contingency o
plan NNECO proposes to add a customized administrative technical specification to control the quantity and use of flammable liquids in specific fire areas at Millstone Unit No. 1.
This proposal was discussed at great lengths during a May 13, 1982 meeting with the Staff at which time the advan-tages and disadvantages were reviewed.
t NNECO proposes to restrict flammable liquids from the control room, cable vault. Specifically, Technical Specifications would require written permission from the shift supervisor or supervising control operator prior to introducing flammable liquids in excess of one-half pint into the two areas described above. The Technical Specifications would also require that these liquids to be contained in suitable containers which would be non-spillable and have flame arrestors in the nozzles. Container volume would be limited to one quart, independent of the safety features of the containers.
The key provision of these administrative controls would be the requirement to post a dedicated fire watch with appropriate fire fighting equipment to monitor the activity which utilizes the flammable liquids.
Signs would be posted at all entrance ways to the fire areas for which these requirements apply providing additional assurance that the flammable liquid restriction will be adhered to.
Elevating flammable liquid controls to the level of Technical Specifications will provide for higher visibility to both NNECO personnel as well as NRC personnel. As such, they would be more readily enforceable. Controls such as proposed herein effectively reduce the potential for fire in the two fire areas described above and add another layer of fire protection defense-in-depth to these zones. Limiting the quantity of flammable liquids available to a fire as well as providing a dedicated fire watch would limit any potential damage which may occur should a fire initiate during the use of such liquids.
As stated during the meeting, the Staff's major concern in granting any credit for such a proposal is the difficulty associated with quantifying the reduction in risk associated with the use of such controls. We recognize that the rate of success in the implementation of such controls is highly variable throughout the industry. We note that several reviews have recently been conducted at Millstone Unit No. I which focused on personnel performance. The Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) as well as Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INFO) audits have been completed. The results of these audits support NNECO's pro-posal that credit for administrative controls at Millstone Unit No. I should be granted. Specifically, the following comments were taken from the SALP report for NNECO issued in Reference (4).
6.b. FIRE PROTECTION and HOUSEKEEPING "The Resident Inspectors observed housekeeping and fire protection controls during routine inspections. No items of noncompliance were identified. The response of licensee personnel, including the shift fire brigade, to several small fires was satisfactory.
Performance of the Fire Detection / Suppression Surveillance Test Program has improved.
l l The NRC has concluded in Reference (4) that NNECO's Fire Protection and Housekeeping performance level is Category 1 which states:
" Category 1: Reduced NRC attention may be appropriate.
Licensee management attention and involvement are aggressive
.and oriented toward nuclear safety; licensee resources are ample and effectively used such that a high level of per-formance with respect to operational safety or construction is being achieved."
l The transmittal letter of Reference (4) states:
"Overall, we find that management attention at your facilities is aggressively oriented toward nuclear safety. Effective use of ample resources has resulted in a high level of performance in operational safety and construction activities."
In addition, a recent inspection by the office of Inspection and Enforcement was conducted at the Millstone Nuclear Power Station. The results of this inspection have been forwarded to NNECO in Reference (5) and state, in part, the following:
" Plant Housekeeping Controls Storage of material and components was observed with respect to prevention of fire and safety hazards. Plant housekeeping was evaluated with respect to controlling the spread of surface and airborne contamination. There were no unacceptable conditions identified.
Fire Protection / Prevention The inspector examined the condition of selected pieces of fire fighting equipment. Combustible materials were being controlled and were not found near vital areas. Selected cable penetrations were examined and fire barriers were found intact.
Cable trays were clear of debris. There were no unacceptable conditions identified."
In further support of our proposal, we advance our view that the credit being requested in this regard is not conceptually different from that granted by the Staff for other safety-related applications identified above.
It would be incongruous for the Staff to accept this approach for certain applications and reject it for others.
NNECO's proposed administrative controls for flammable liquids will add another level of fire protection to the control room and cable vault.
This added control on flammable liquid introduction into these areas together with the existing and proposed fire protection features described in Appendix A for these areas, will provide equivalent protection to that achieved by fulfilling the requirements of Section III.G.2 of Appendix R to 10CFR50. NNECO proposes these additional restrictive administrative controls to support the exemption requests for fire areas T-16, and T-21.
A formal license amendment application will be docketed upon resolution of the exemption requests for these fire areas.
__ _ _ _ _ _ _ __________ _____ __ _ Figures 1 and 2 are illustrative of the Technical Specification Admini-l strative Controls which have been described herein.
l III. Intervening CombustiblesSection III.G.2 of Appendix R to 10CFR50 specifies the means for en-suring that redundant. trains of safe shutdown equipment, located in the
(
same fire area, remain free of fire damage.
Item b identifies detection, automatic suppression and separation of safe shutdown equipment by 20 feet with no intervening combustibles or fire hazards as one means of compliance with Section III.G.2.
Recognizing that all materials are combustible at sufficiently elevated l
temperatures, the provision "no intervening combustible or fire hazards" l
of Section III.G.2.b of Appendix R is subject to interpretation. To ensure Staff cognizance of the approach utilized in our fire hazard evaluations, NNECO presents a discussion in Appendix B regarding the interpretation of intervening combustibles in the context of compliance with Section III.G.2.b of Appendix R.
The basis for the definition presented in Appendix B is a consideration of the credible fire which would be expected to occur in any given fire area at Millstone Unit No. 1.
Several of the conclusions presented both in Reference (1) and in Appendix A have been based on an evaluation of intervening combustibles present in each fire zone. NNECO has requested exemptions in several fire zones from the requirement of Section III.G.2.b of Appendix R for "no intervening combustibles".
In these instances, the evaluation of the specific fire zone concluded that the intervening combustibles present do not compromise the integrity of the redundant safe shutdown equipment in the zone.
IV.
Compliance Summary To complement the information presented in the Fire Zone Analyses pre-sented in Section I above, a revised synopsis of the current compliance status on a fire zone specific basis is provided as Appendix C. It is NNECO's intention to provide the Staff with a revised schedule for the completion of the modifications identified in the attached summary after a review of all fire protection modifications at the Haddam Neck Plant and Millstone Unit Nos. I and 2 can be accomplished. This review will establish an optimum fire protection modification implementation schedule for all three of the Northeast Utilities operating nuclear power plants which is compatible with each of the plant's scheduled outages.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ This approach will entble Northeast Utilities to bett:r utilize its engineering and construction manpower such that the proposed fire i
protection modifications can be implemented on a timely and cost effective schedule. The schedules for the fire protection modifications t
will be provided to the Staff following the completion of supplemental submittals for both the Haddam Neck Plant and Millstone Unit No. 2.
As a result of completing this integrated evaluation, we anticipate that additional schedular exemption requests will be necessary.
With the docketing of this submittal, NNECO concludes that the require-ments 'of 10CFR50.48(c)(5) for submitting plans to comply with 10CFR50.48(c)(2) and 50.48(c)(3) have been fulfilled. Given the extensive interrelationship between modifications resulting in com-pliance and those associated with exemption requests, it is not prac-tical to provide detailed implementation schedules at this time. For those modifications associated with fire zones involving exemption requests, we interpret 10CFR to mean that the schedule is tolled pursuant to 50.48(c)(6). For those modifications identified which would result in compliance with 10CFR50.48 and Appendix R, a schedular exemption from the requirements of 10CFR50.48(c)(5) is requested pursuant to 10CFR50.48(c)(6) and 10CFR50.12(a). We are confident that reasonable schedules can be developed promptly after the Staff responds to the proposals contained herein. Such schedules would reflect the results of an integrated evaluation of previously committed plant modifications and other resource consider-ations in concert with recently articulated Commission policy in this regard.
Subsequent to submitting the enclosed report, NNECO will continue verification of the information provided to the Staff.
In the event that any clarification of this information is found to be necessary, NNECO will provide such clarification as expeditiously as possible.
We remain prepared to interact with the Staff as necessary to bring this issue to resolution.

(See Attachment
- 2, Sketch 1.)
Discussion The main control room at Millstone I was evaluated under three postulated conditions.
In order to evaluate these conditions, it was necessary to identify all safe shutdown required components and panels. Enclosed as Attachment 3 is a description of required components / panels and associated plan views and sketches which will identify all critical /
sensitive areas within the control room.
The main control room postulated fire conditions are as follows:
o Level I:
Involves a position that a major damaging fire could not result in significant damange because of unique features of control room and proposed customized administrative controls.
o Level II:
A flammable liquid spill is allowed to burn and proposed fire protection modifications prevent serious / destructive damage to control room equipment.
o Level III:
Unmitigated fire causes individual panel damage and operator action is discussed which compensate for damage.
Fire Arza No. T-21 Pag 2 3 With respect to Level I, NNECO concludes that damaging or destructive fires are those fires that go undetected for considerable periods of time, or those fires that develop rapidly because.of large quantities of combustibles such as flammable liquids.
The control room differs from all other areas of a power plant with respect to potential destructive fires. The control room has unique features which eliminate damaging / destructive fires. These unique features include the following:
1.
Control room is continuously manned by licensed operators.
2.
Control room is a restricted area and transient combustibles are controlled.
Technical Specifications require that three (3) licensed operators-be on shift in Modes 1 through 3, and two licensed operators in modes 4 & 5.
The type of fire that can be expected in the control room would be a slow smoldering fire because of the type and quantity of combustible materials present, and heat sources available. This type of incipient fire would be detected promptly by licensed personnel on duty and/or the installed ionization smoke detection system. Portable extinguishers could readily handle any control room incipient fire that could occur.
It should be noted also that many licensed operators are trained members of the plant fire brigade.
Because the control room is a locked / restricted area, the potential of introducing large quantities of transient combustibles is remote, and therefore, it is not creditable to postulate a rapidly developing, damaging, major fire.
The control room also has many other favorable features which contribute in preventing, detecting, and/or suppressing a fire.
In 1978 the NRC conducted site fire protection inspections to determine compliance with Branch Technical Position 9.5-1 Appendix A.
All fire protection recommendations generated for the control rooms by the NRC and their fire protection consultants have been implemented.
Another factor that must be considered in the defense of the control room is that no high or medium voltage power supplies exist in the control room.
The following active and passive fire protection features for the control room must be considered when as.essing the vulnerability of the control room.
1.
Uniqueness of Control Room - Continuously manned by licensed reactor operators.
2.
Hardened / secure area of the plant - Totally enclosed by reinforced concrete and restricted entry. A smoke barrier (metal and wire glass) was installed to separate HP-1 from MP-2 control room.
This was installed per NRC BTP 9.5.1 review.
Fire Ares No. T-21 Page 4 3.
No significant permanent combustibles.
4.
No high/ medium voltage power sources.
5.
Adequate fire protection for type and quantity of combustibles -
Portable extinguishers located throughout the room and hose stations available in areas outside control room.
Early warning detec' ion - Provided by Control Room licensed operators 6.
t and ionization detection.
7.
Proposed customized administrative controls to restrict flammable liquids in the control room (see attached insert on administrative controls).
The combined features listed above represent a defense-in-depth approach to fire protection by providing sufficient echelons / levels of active, passive, and administrative control features to assure the functionability of the Control Room.
With respect to Level II, a quantitative analysis was conducted to model the effects of an unmitigated transient combustible fire involving one gallon of heptane in the control room of Millstone I.
It is recognized that such a fire is an extremely unlikely event. Further, no attempt was made to postulate the scenario under which this situation may occur. Rather, the focus of this report is to demonstrate the expected survivability of critical control panel devices from the effects of an unmitigated fire and the inherent protection afforded by the existing configuration.
In modeling the postulated fire, conservative assumptions are made concerning the fires heat release rate and the heat transfer of energy to a CMC-type switch and the supporting panel. These assumptions are all oriented towards supporting a bounding calculation of the maximum surface temperatures for both the console and the model switch while limiting the flow of heat in a manner which exaggerates te overall severity of the fire scenario. A brief summary of assumptions used in this analysis includes the following considerations.
Laboratory values for the heat release rate of heptane are used. This o
assumption results in a more efficient and severe fire than has been measured in actual large-scale fires comparable to the type used in the analysis.
o Instantaneous achievement and continued maintenance of maximum fire heat release rates are postulated. This approach ensures the use of the most severe or bounding conditions in modeling the effects of the control room fire.
High values for radiation absorptivity are utilized coincidentially o
with low values for the emissivity for the subsequent reradiation.
This assumption results in the accumulation and retention of the incident radiant heat flux by the panel and switch.
Fire Arca No. T-21 Page 5 Unreasonably high air temperatures adjacent to the panel are maintained o
subsequent to fire self-extinguishment with cooling provided by natural convection.
Conduction of hea't is assumed to occur in only a single dimension up and o
away from.the panel's edge. Cooling resulting from lateral heat conduction in the panel is not considered.
The approach taken in modeling the postulated fire involves a rigorous analysis of the physics of the problem. Time dependent, finite difference solutions for the control panel surface temperature were obtained for a second-order partial differential equation with variable boundary conditions.
l The quantitative analysis conducted concluded that the postulated fire would not disable instrumentation and controls located on the main control board, thus ensuring safe shutdown capability and providing additional bases for the requested exemption.
In the Conclusion Section of the Final Report, it is noted that the analysis assumed that the ventilation slots on the lower front panels are closed off.
These louvered openings represent a difference between the actual control board configuration and the assumed analytical configuration. Since the analysis did not account for the louvered openings, it is NNECO's intention to provide a barrier that would afford equivalent or greater protection than the control panel itself.
This quantitative / analytical analysis represented a typical fire scenario for the main control board area and was not intended to account for the free-standing auxiliary cabinets which are also part of the main control room.
The unique design of the main control board does not permit switches, gages, and instrumentation to be directly exposed to heat generated at floor level (flammable liquids) and therefore the quantitative analysis proved that main control board instrumentation could serve the postulated fire. The auxiliary panels do not have this unique design feature and therefore little to no l
protection for instrumentation is provided. For this reason NNECO has proposed to provide ramps in front of these panels to assure that any flammable liquid spill would be directed away from the panel faces (see Attachment #2, Sketch 1).
NNECO concludes that the enclosed quantitative fire analysis for the main board and the proposed ramping for the balance of control room panels, that sufficient justification has been presented to demonstrate the survivability of control room required functions.
NNECO further concludes that from a fire consideration, sufficient assurance has been provided in the form of active / passive fire protection features to justify an equivalent level of protection for the control room.
Even though NNECO has provided reasonable justification and proposed modifications to assure control room survivability, the control room analysis has been carried one step further, Level (III).
This condition assumes that all of the control room active and passive fire protection features fail to function.
Fire Area Ns. T-21 Page 6 Proposed customized administrative control particularly fail.
o Proposed ramp to divert / drain a flammable liquid spill fails to o
function.
No~ operator (s) action to restrict / control the fire.
o Full credit is not taken for the quantitative fire analysis /
o model (EPM Study).
Flammable liquid spills occur and is ignited.
o Resulting fire is positioned in front of each critical panel in o
the control room. is a panel-by panel analysis of the significance of damage suffered as well as a statement regarding alternative action (s) which can be taken by the control room operator (s) to compensate for resultant damage.
The results of this Level III analysis reveals that MP-1 can successfully utilize operator action to compensate for damage to control room control panels.

Docket No. 50-245 Millstone Nuclear Power Station, Unit No. 1 Analysis of Control Room Fire Damage July, 1982
l The following page detallr those control room devices required for safe shutdown that are assuned to be damaged by fire in a manner which could interfere with an orderly controlled safe shutdown. Each panel or control i
l board section reviewed is marked to indicate the locations of these devices.
Numbers in paren'th' sis indicate bill of noterial designation. These numbers 1
e c1so are used on the evaluation sheets. The following guidelines were used in performing this analysis.-
1.
The fire is assured to be an exposure fire occurring outside of the confines of the various boards and panels.
i 2.
Customized administrative controls' proposed in NNECO's March,1982 submittal and further delineated in this supplement, are depended l
upon to Ilmit the magnitude of the fire as well as to prevent exposure fires internal to boards and panels. No credit is taken, however, for the posted fire watch which can realistically be expected to sxtinguish the fire prior to total consumption of the available flammable liquid. The administrative controls allowed volune of flammable liquid is assumed to be one quart. However, for the circuit analysis the fire was assuned to progress to the point of complete destruction of components as defined by items 4 and 5.
3 The control room quantitative analysis results are credited for demonstrating that a fire external to a board or panel does no damage to wiring / devices mounted within that same board or panel.
4.
Components / equipment mounted on the surface of panels of board or which penetrate to any extent the protective skin of a panel or board are assured to be failed upon exposure to the postulated external fire in a '%crst case" nenner. As an example, a required-to-be-open contact is assumed closed and vice versa, an instrument falls to present a useful indication, etc.
5.
Fires are assumed not to be started via In-situ conditions such as faults or overloads, as:
(a)
Circuits are control or instrumentation type, not of sufficient energy level to start a fire due to a fault especially without a single failure of protective devices.
Single failures are not required to be taken for Appendix R assuned events; and, (b)
Long term overloads which could challenge the installed wiring capability are excluded due to the nature of powered devices. Relays, switches, Indicating IIghts, meters, etc., do not change their characteristics such as to support long term overloads without going to a faulted condition which will be removed via circuit protective devices.
---e
MILLSTONE I NOTES:
1.
The 480VAC'swlichgear circuit breakers can be tripped and closed manually from the. front of the switchgear compartments by operation of mechanical devices.
2.
The 4160VAC circuit breakers may be manaully tripped and closed from the front of the breaker compartment by operation of mechanically operated devices.
l As these breakers are equipped with stored energy type operators, with no control power available and the breaker in the tripped position, the breaker is capable of one manual closing operation af ter which it may be tripped manually but requires manaul recharge of the closing springs prior to a subsequent closing operation.
3 The analysis has assumed that the fire could cause a short circuit around the light bulbs of indicating lights due to the manner in which they are mounted on control boards. However, because these devices have resistors mounted behind them which are connected in series with the bulbs, it is our position that a fire external to the control board is not going to cause a short across the entire bulb / resistor assemblies. Therefore, fire related Indicating light failures will not cause short circuits which could affect circuit breaker operation.
4.
If a fire related failure caused the diesel generator to operate without service water, and the service water pumps could not be restarted from the main control board, the diesel engine coolant temperature would be monitored.
If service water pumps could not be manually started before the diesel reached its alarm set point of 190', the diesel would be shut down until a service water pump is available or until a fire pump can be lined up to provide cooling.
Since the diesel would have almost no load on it, sufficient time is available to secure service water.
Additionally, the Gas Turbine Generator would be available and require no service water cooling.
5.
The control room analysis assumes the occurrence of a coincident LNP.
However, in certain cases, an LNP would not be caused by the fire under consideration.
Such cases are conservative and any evaluation should consider that most plant loads would continue to function and would be available during the plant shutdown.

Failure of Core Spray Switches (components A) would prevent the operation of Core Spray Cooling System i.
Failure of Core Spray Switches (components B) would prevent the operation of Core Spray Coolin,g System II.
1 ALTERNATE:
The six electro-pneumatic relief valves have capacities on the order of 800,000 Lbs/Hr. for each valve. All are DC-powered, but require air for opening and remaining open. The accumulators (one per valve)are sized for three openings of the associated valve. However, even in the event of the highly unlikely dual loss of the isolation condenser and the air supply to the accumulators, the combination of valve opening due to steam pressure end the Feedwater Coolant injection System (FWCI, located on Panel 906) powered via the on-site gas turbine generator will be satisfactory to depressurizer the Reactor Coolant System.
The main steam isolation valves are utilized for containment Integrity which is not required in a non accident scenario. Continuous blowdown to the main condenser enhances cooldown while main turbine stop valves (located on Panel 923) are closed preventing any carry-over into the Turbine Building.
The LPCl/ Containment Cooling System pumps water f rom the suppression pool into the reactor vessel through one of the recirculation loops into the core region. The pumps are started automatically f rom an accident signal cnd isolation valves are opened when the reactor pressure decreases to epproximately 260 psig. The required system components on Panel 903 are contained in two redundant and independent trains.
NOTE:
Panel 903 is two separate panels such as 904 and 905 are physically separate, therefore, a loss of LPCI System I would not effect the LPCI System ll operation. Each system is designed to supply sufficient cooling water by itself.
The Core Spray System consists of two independent trains (Layout is similar to the LPCI trains), each drawing water from the torus and delivering it to the vessel through dedicated spray nozzles. Each I
train which is 100% of that required by the loss of coolant accident cnalysis.

l SYMPTOV:
l Failure of Shutdown Cooling System Control Switches could prevent remote operation of the system suction and discharge valves.Although both MCC's (MCCF-3 and MCCE-3) can be supplied by emergency sources, this could result in loss of system since the valves are inside contal:tnent and are, therefore, inaccessible.
Failure l
of pump control switches upuid render the system inoperative.
l Lost of the Reactor Water Cleanup (RWCU) System suction and suction bypass valve control switches would inhibit water discharging from the reactor through RWCU to the main condenser or Radioactive Waste System.
I ALTERNATE ACTION:
l If the Shutcooling System becomes inoperative, Low Pressure Coolant injection System (LPCI), located on Panel 903, can be utilized to provide core cooling.
The LPCI Cooling System is a low-pressure system which supplies makeup and cooling water af ter reactor pressure is reduced.
In the absence of the Reactor Water Cleanup System which is an alternate method, the first method is the use of relief valves (Panel 903) to relieve pressure and decrease inventory.

Failure of the Reactor Protection System SCRAM pushbuttons would prevent scraming the control rods from the Main Control Board.
A loss of FWCl reset switches would inhibit the system operation.
Fc'iveo of the Control Rod Drive Hydraulic System control switches will prohibit the il,?ity to supply water for control rod drive operation and add makeup water to the reactor.
ALTERNATIVE Manually operating the SCRAM relays (from Panel 915) 590-108A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
,cnd H, and 590-109 A, B, C, and D will SCRAM the control rods to protect the rsactor and associated equipnent in the event certain conditions are exceeded.
FWCl System utilizes normal plant equipment to supply makeup to the core from the main condenser. This system may be substituted via Panel 903 with core spray providing ADS has lowered reactor pressure to a permissive level for core spray operation.
Loss the the Control Rod Drive System will not inhibit the SCRAM function as discussed above. Each control rod hydraulic accumulator is charged with compressed nitrogen which provides the energy for drive-in insertion during a SCRAM condition.
The LPCl/ containment cooling with associated automatic depressurization provides an citernate supply for reactor cooling water.

SYMPTOM:
Follure of the Feedwater System Control Switches would render the normal Racctor Feedwater and FWCl Systems inoperative.
i Th2 loss of either RBCCW or CW Systems (Cooling Water Systems) results in loss of Shutdown Cooling System capabilities and possibly subsequent reheating of tha reactor coolant.
ALTERNATIVE:
The Feedwater and FWCl Systems use nornal plant equipment, (i.e., Reactor Feed Pumps, Condensate Booster Pumps, and Condensate Pumps) pumping from the main condenser hotwell through the Condensate /Feedwater System to the reactor vessel.
LPCI or core spray, located on Panel 903 can adequately mitigate the consequences from the loss of the feedwater trains.

t Discussion I
(
It should b'e noted that the color-coded drawing of the cable vault may lead the. reviewer to believe redundant cables (green and red) may run in the same trays. As noted on the drawing, these cables run in different trays with a minimum vertical seperation of approximately one foot.
f Figure T-16.1 provides further clarification.
The sketch also shows the placement of the 1" thick marinite boards in the room which provide a one-hour fire barrier.
l l
l The extent of the exemption is that the cable trays that contain all S-1 and S-2 cables are not totally enclosed with a one-hour fire barrier.
The tops are protected with marinite. The sides of the trays are not protected.
With the proposed installation of an automatic fire suppression system and the implementation of administrative controls, post-fire shutdown capability is assured.
Following the Browns Ferry fire of 1975, Millstone Unit #1 conducted an evaluation of the cable vault area and incorporated the following active and passive fire protection features:
(a) A new early warning ionization smoke detection system.
(b) An independent smoke removal system.
(c) A second entrance through which a fire hose station can be used.
(d) Additional fire rated dampers were installed to provide better isolation.
(e) A fire equipment cabinet with cable vault fire fighting tools and equipment has been provided.
Note that the fire protection for this area concentrated on upgrading manual fire fighting capability.
The reason for this emphasis was that the Millstone 1 cable vault design features lends itself to manual fire fighting. The cable vault is relatively free of obstructions and fire fighting mobility is not restricted (see attached photo). The cable tray system is totally enclosed in steel trays. A fire in any tray would be slow in developing (lack of oxygen) and the enclosed tray design would assist in containing the fire. An early warning ioniza-tion detection system would alarm in the early stages of a fire and the plant fire brigade would respond.
A smoke removal system was installed exclusively to support manual fire suppression for this fire zone.
The proposed modification to implement customized controls to restrict /
control the introduction of flammable liquids will add another level of
y Fira Area No. T-16 Page 4 protection to supplement other defense-in-depth fire protection features in this area.
To add another echelon / dimension of fire protection for the cable vault, NNECO proposes to install an automatic suppression system.
'NNECO concludes that the summation of existing fire protection features and proposed fire protection modifications including the concept of customized administrative controls, add sufficient defense-in-depth to warrant an exemption from the requirement of Section III.G.2.c of Appendix R.

Fira Arso No. R-2A Page 3 Compliance With Appendix R Does not comply with Section III.G.2.b of Appendix R.
l Exemption requested (see discussion) from the requirement for no intervening combustibles.
Proposed Modifications 1)
Enclose DC control power feed from HCC-DC-11A1 to MCC-2-3 with a 1-hour fire barrier.
2)
Install fire stops in intervening cable trays.
Discussion It should be noted that one cable run in this zone was not identified in l
Ref. (1) as being required for a safe-shutdown option. This cable supplies DC control power for a valve associated with the FWCI safe-shutdown option. Figure R-2A.1 provides further clarification of this control power feed throughout the 14'6" elevation of the reactor building.
The extent of the exemption is the presence of intervening combustibles between cables associated with safe shutdown options. Specifically between power and control cables for the emergency condensate transfer
{
pump and valve and cables associated with the Isolation Condenser and
[
ADS systems (see Figure R-2A).
i With the proposed alternatives of (1) the installation of fire stops in intervening cables trays and (2) the enclosure of the DC control power feed from MCC-DC-11A-1 to MCC-2-3 with a 1-hour barrier, post-fire shutdown capability is assured.
(See generic position as stated in Appendix B of this submittal.)
Fire Zone R-2A is located in the northwest corner of the 14'6" elevation of the reactor building. An early warning ionization detection system and an automatic suppression system is already installed in this area.
As mentioned, the extent of the exemption is the presence of intervening combustibles (open cable trays) between redundant shutdown cables. The redundant cables are separated by a minimum horizontal distance of approximately 25 feet and located about 16 feet off of the floor (see Figure R-2A2). With the installation of fire stops, a fire will not be able to propagate along the trays destroying the redundant cables. MCC-2-3 is protected by an Environmental Enclosure, also the MCC is located cpproximately 25' (horizontal) from redundant shutdown cables. With the installation of the proposed alternatives, the intent of Section III.G.2.b of Appendix R is more than met and the exemption is warranted.

Proposed Modifications 1.
Enclose DC power feed from DC-1A to MCC-DC-11A-1 with a 1-hr. fire barrier to a point twenty feet past the cable tray containing the cable for the ADS valves.
2.
Install fire stops in intervening cable trays.
Discussion It should be noted that one cable run in this zone was not identified in Ref. (1) as being required for a safe-shutdown option. The cable supplies
Fira Area No. R-2D Pag? 3 DC control power for a valve associated with the FWCI safe-shutdown cption. Figure R-2D.1 provides further clarification of this control power feed throughout the 14'6" elevation of the reactor building.
With the proposed alternative of installing a 1-hr. fire barrier around the DC feed from DC-1A to MCC-DC-11A-1 and the installation of cable tray fire stops, post-fire shutdown capability is assured.
Fire Zone R-2D.1 is located in the southwest corner of the 14'6" elevation of the reactor building. An early warning ionization detection system is already installed in this area.
NNECO's position is that an automatic suppression system is not necessary for this area due to its low combustible loading relative to the high degree of fire protection afforded by the proposed one-hour fire rated cable enclosure and the installation of fire stops in cable trays.
(see generic position as stated in Appendix B of this submittal and Figure R-2D.2)
NNECO has concluded that the protection afforded by the combination of the one hour fire rated enclosure cable tray fire stops, the inherent spatial separation, the existing ionization detection system and the subsequent fire brigade response using in-situ manual fire suppression equipment more than compensate for the requirements for total compliance with the regulation.

On the east the. zone is bounded by a 1-foot-thick reinforced-con-o l
crete-block wall.
On the north the partial wall is 3-ft reinforced concrete, with a o
doorway aild a concrete-block plugged access hatch fitted with a 48 inch exhaust fan.
The south wall, separating this zone from the diesel generator l
o room, is a 1-ft-thick reinforced-concrete-block wall with a 3-hour rated fire door. The remainder of the wall is 8-inch reinforced concrete block. The personnel door leading into the machine shop is a 1-1/2 hour rated steel door, and the overhead door is of heavy l
steel construction.
o The wall between this area and the decontamination room is 8 inch concrete block, with double doors.
On the west, the wall is 8-inch reinforced concrete block, with o
steel doors.
The ceiling is a 6-inch reinforced concrete slab on steel Z-decking o
supported by I-beams. At the northwest corner a section (approximately 40 x 50 feet) of the ceiling is lowered by 3 ft 6 in., providing a gap of approximately 3 feet between it and the remaining floor.
o The floor is the ground-floor concrete slab.

Proposed Modification 1
1.
Enclose AC power feed from 480V #2A to MCC-22A-1 with a one-hour fire barrier throughout the zone (cable supplies power for diesel
(
fuel oil transfer pump A).
2.
Install fire stops in intervening cable trays.
Discussion It should be noted that two cable runs through this zone were not identified in Ref. (1) as being required for safe shutdown. The cables supply power to diesel fuel oil transfer pumps (pumps A and B), either of which can pump fuel to the diesel fuel tank.
It should be noted that these pumps need not operate until eight hours after the diesel generator is started.
It should be noted that all the other safe shutdown equipment and cables located in this zone have redundant components in other areas.
With the proposal of installing a one-hour fire barrier around the feed for pump A, and the installation of cable tray fire stops, post fire shutdown capability is assured.
Fire zone T-5C is located in the south end of the 14'-6" elevation of the turbine building. An early warning ionization detection system is already installed in the area.
NNECO's position is that an automatic suppression system is not necessary for this area due to its low combustible loading relative to the high degree of fire protection afforded by the proposed one-hour fire rated cable enclosure and the installation of fire stops in cable trays.
Fira Area No. T-5C Pega 4 NNECO has concluded that the protection afforded by the combination of the one-hour fire rated enclosure, cable tray fire stops, the inherent spatial separation, the existing ionizat. ion detection system and the subsequent fire brigade response using in-situ manual fire suppression equipment more than compensate for the requirements for total compliance with the regulation.

Exemption requested (see proposed modifications and discussion).
Proposed. Modifications 1.
Enclose train S-2 cable tray with I hour rated fire barrier from fire zone T-19B to a point twenty feet past the 4kV #5 switchgear (S-1).
2.
Install additional fire stops in intervening cable trays.
3.
A water curtain spray system will be installed to provide separation between redundant 4kV and 480V switchgear.
(T-19A from T-19B) 4.
A curb / dike will be installed to assure that a flammable liquid spill would not effect redundant 4kV and 480V switchgear.
Discussion The extent of the exemption is 3-fold.
(1) The acceptance of a curb / dike and water curtain spray system as an alternative to a three-hour fire barrier.
(2) The presence of intervening combustibles between cables associated with safe-shutdown options.
(3) The absense of an automatic suppression system in areas where redundant safe-shutdown equipment will be separated by 20 feet or a 1-hr. fire barrier. The precise nature of the exemption varies as a function of location within this fire zone.
Details are provided in the following paragraphs.
With the installations of the proposed modifications, as well as credit for the extensive manual suppression equipment in the zone, it is NNECO's position that post-fire shutdown capability is assured.
Fire zone T-19A is of an L-shaped configuration located in the northeast corner of the 34'6" elevation of the turbine building. Refer to Figure 1 for discussion of this zone. The assumption that a fire would engulf l
the whole zone is not credible due to the large area of the zone. The zone extends nearly 160 feet, both in the westerly and southerly directions from the northeast corner. The Design Features section of this Safe Shutdown Fire Zone Analysis provides some insight into the existing characteristics of this zone. Particular attention should be paid to items 4, 6, 9, and 10.
Concerning Item 4, the reason a block wall is not extended all the way across the walkway is to allow transfer of the large transformers through the zone for maintenance during refueling outages. Equipment and cables that are located in the zone which provide safe shutdown capability are 4160 and 480 VAC S1 switchgear and the control cables for the 4160 and 480 VAC S2 switchgear.
The S1 switchgear is located at the extreme south end of the zone. The S2 control cables run the entire east-side length of the room in one cable tray.
In the
l Firo Area Ns. T-19A Page 4 northeast corner the tray penetrates the floor into Fire Zone T-17 (Mezzanine) before entering the cable vault. The cable tray is run at'a l
height of 11 feet above the floor. The central area within the zone is where the S2 cable tray passes above the walkway between the S1 4.16KV cnd 480V switchgear.
\\
As previously discussed; it is not credible to assume that a single fire would destroy the whole of fire zone T-19A. For this reason, NNECO treated the review of this zone as though it was divided into three s.311er areas hereafter described as the south end, west edd and northeast co t at7.
Applying the 20 foot seperation criterion to determine the commen buendaries of these areas, a fire was postulated in the areas, cne at a time, to determine wich shutdown cipsbility would be lost and to identify alternative capability. With the incorporation of the above identified modifications, destruction of each ' area would be acco.nodated es follows:
g i
Table 1 i
Area Destroyed Shutdown Train Remaining Intact South End S2 (cables'through'soath end are protected by one hour fire enclosute) N West End S1 and S2 op,tions both available Northeast Corner S1 option remains intact It should be noted that the cables for redunthnt' shutdown cooling pumps are also located in this area. The pumps provide cold shutdown capability f
with the use of the isolation condenser.
Repa*r' procedures are not required for these cables because the Emergency Service Water system provides alternate cold shutdown capability and are located in other areas.
The following discussion details NNECO's proposed modifications. 'Modifi-cation #1 provides for the eTclosure of the S2 cable tray with a 1-hr.
fire barrier from the border of Fire Zone T-19B to a point 20 feet past the north corner of the SI switchgear. This provides fire protection for a fire in the South End area.
Proposed modification #2 provides for-I the installation of additional fire stops in intervening cable trays in,
e manner so as to prevent propagation of a fire from the South End to the Northeast Corner. This modification directly addresses the intervening combustibles portion of the exemption and it is NNECO's conclusion that the concern for fire spread along raceway paths is fully addressed by this treatment.
Proposed modification #3 will incorporate a water curtain between the S-1 and S-2 redundant switchgear units.
The water curtain would be a wet pipe system and would provide directional spray over the wing walls and curbed area as shown on supplemental sketch. This would selectively >
apply water to provide a barrier only and not spray water over vital equipment. The proposed water curtain and curbing would be'provided to eeparate fire zone T-19B from both T-19A and T-19C.
The proposed wet N;
Fira Arac Ns. T-19A Pcga 5 pipe water curtain sprinkler system would add another dimension to the j
d:fense-in-depth concept, not only from the suppression consideration,
)
but also from its detection capability. Should the early warning ioniza-tion detection system fail, the fusible link element of the water curtain w:uld activate under a fire condition, water would flow, and the water flow alarm would annunciate in the control room. Modification #4 will
?
cesure that a postulated large flammable liquid spill would be restricted / contained to the fire area in which the spill occured.
The installation of an automatic suppression system throughout the cable tray system in the switchgear room is not feasible for the following reasons.
1.
A water spray suppression system is not compatible with the type of equipment located in the area.
Water dropping from overhead on indoor switchgear could cause faults and tripping of power to vital shutdown loads; thus compromising plant safety.
In the context of 10CFR50.48, installation of a sprinkler system in this fire zone would be detrimental to overall plant safety.
2.
An automatic suppression system using CO2 gas would be ineffective due to the fact that the volume of the switchgear room is too I
large.
,\\
The nature of the switchgear room lends itself to manual suppression.
3.
(a) The room is very accessible to fire brigades and (b) water would not be sprayed indiscriminately throughout the room.
I NNECO concludes that with the installation of the proposed alternative, i
l the intent of Section III.G.2 of Appendix R is achieved.

(2) The absence of an automatic suppression system in an area where redundant safe-shutdown equipment and cables have a 1-hour fire barrier. It is NNECO's position that incorporation of the proposed modifications together with fire brigade use of the locally housed manual fire suppression equipment will result in a degree of protection equivalent to that efforded by strict compliance with Appendix R options. Fire zone T-19B is a 25 foot square area located on the east side of the 34'6" elevation of the turbine building. As shown on Figure T-19A.1, post-fire shutdown capability is achieved by S-1 systems. Fire zone T-19B contains the diesel generator (DG/S-2) 4kV and 480V emergency switchgear. This equipment is located in close proximity to
Fira Arcs No. T-19B Pega 3 the AC feed from 480V #2 to MCC 2-5 (S-1) (see referenced drawing #34013). Because MCC 2-5 provides power to the Gas Turbine Generator (S-1) DC switchgear, and a fire in T-19B could destroy the ability to charge both station batteries which provide long-term DC control power supply, the MCC2-5 AC feed must be protected. The proposed witer curtain and curbing would be provided to separate fire zone T-19B from both T-19A and T-19C. The proposed wet pipe water curtain sprinkler system would add another dimension to the defense-in-depth concept, not only from the suppression consideration, but also from its detection capability. Should the early warning ionization detection system fail, the fusible link element of the water curtain .would activate under a fire condition, water would flow, and the water flow alarm would annunicate in the control room. Proposed modifications #1, #2 and #3 will assure that at least one safety division will remain functional following a fire. NNECO concludes that with the installation of the proposed alternatives, the intent of Section III.G.2 of Appendix R is met. Reference Drawing 34013 i

cck-43 Millstone Unit I Generic Discussion for Switchgear Room Fire Zones T-19C, T-19D, & l T-19E l Because of the' unusually complex physical layout of these three fire zones, the description of NNECO's proposed alternatives is provided i below to facilitate staff review. Refer to Figures T-19.1, T-19.2 and T-19.3 as a clarification to reference drawings 34013 and 34014. These zones were handled with the same philosphy as Fire Zone T-19A. The extent of NNECO's exemption request for these three areas is three-fold and consists of the following: (1) Appendix R Section III.G.2.a requires a 3-hour rated barrier between fire zones. NNECO proposes to substitute, as an alternative to this requirement, the installation of a curb / dike and water curtain spray system to protect fire zone T-19C from fire zone T-19B and vice-versa. (2) Appendix R Section III.G.2.b requires a minimum of 20 feet separa-tion with no intervening combustibles in addition to installed fire detection and automatic suppression systems. NNECO has concluded that the presence of intervening cable systems utilizing the types of insulation and jacketing material in service at Millstone Unit No. 1 constitutes an " intervening combustible" hazard. NNECO further concludes that the judicious placement of fire stops or breaks in the raceway system effectively nullifies this hazard and proposes this modification as an equivalent means of compliance with Section III.G.2.b. (3) Appendix R Section III.G.2.c requires an installed automatic suppres-sion system in addition to a one-hour fire barrier between redundant components. NNECO has concluded that the protection afforded by a one-hour fire barrier, the early warning ionization detection system, inherent but limited (not 20 feet) spatial separation and the use of manual fire fighting equipment by a trained fire brigade is the equivalent of the protection provided by strict compliance with Section III.G.2.c requirements. l l Proposed Modifications for Fire Zones T-19C, T-19D, and T-19E 1. Enclose the cables listed below in a 1-hr fire barrier as shown in Figure T-19.3. a) DC-1 feed to dist. pnl. DC-11A-2 (ADS Valves) b) DC-1 feed to MCC-DC-11A-2 (Iso. Cond. 1-IC-3 Valve) c) DC Control Power feeds to 4kV Emer. Bus #6 and 480V load center #2A (S2 safe-shutdown options) d) 480 VAC load center #2A feed to MCC-2A-4 (S2 DC Power) e) 480 VAC feed from MCC-2A-4 to Battery Charger #1 (S2 DC Power for S2 safe-shutdown options)
Note: Emergency Service Water Pumps A&C and Service Water Pump D power cables from 4kV switchgear #6 (S2) shall be protected in 1-hr barrier in parts of Fire Zones T-19C and T-19E. 2. Install fire stops in intervening cable trays. I 3. Install a' water curtain spray system to seperate Fire Zone T-19C from T-19B. 4. Install a curb / dike to separate Fire Zone T-19C from T-19B. With the installations of the proposed modifications and utilization of the extensive manual suppression equipment in the zone, it is NNECO's position that post-fire shutdown capability is assured. Fire Zones T-19C, T-19D and T-19E encompass most of the south end of the 34'6" elevation of the turbine building. Figure T-19.1 shows the fire zone layout of the south end of the 34'6" elevation. The zones cover an area of 75 feet by 150 feet. It should be noted that Fire Zones T-22, 23 and 24 are separated from the zones of discussion by 1-foot thick reinforced concrete walls and 3-hr rated doors. The Design Features Section of the three zone analysis provides some insight into existing characteristics of these zones. Particular attention should be paid to items T-19C.1, 2, 4, 5, T-19D.1, 2, 4 and T-19E.1, 2. Those particular design features provide some existing fire protection which can be credited for partial Appendix R compliance. Another design feature, which is not apparent on the reference drawings, is an existing 8" reinforced concrete wall that extends to a point 3' past the west end of 4kV SWGR #7 (See figure T-19.D). The reason block walls were not extended all the way across walkways between fire zones is to allow transfer of large transformers for maintenance purposes. Equipment and cables, which provide hot and cold shutdown capability, that are located in these fire zones are as follows: S1 Equipment 1) Battery Charger #1A 2) DC Switchboard #1A f 3) 4.16 kV SWGR. #1 4) 4.16 kV SWGR #3 5) 4.16 kV SWGR #7 6) MCC 2-5 S1 Cables 1) 4160 Volt Bus Duct 2) 480V#2 to MCC2-5 3) MCC2-5 to Bat. Chgr #1A 4) S1 DC Control Power Feeds 5) S1 Battery Tie to DC Swbd. #1A
S2 Equipment 1) Battery Charger #1 2) DC Switchboard #1 3)
- MCC2A-5 located in area, but not required if fire is located in SWGR. Room.
S2 Cables e 1) 4160 Volt Power from 4kV SWGR #6 to Intake Structure (cold shutdown) 2) 480V#2A to MCC2A-4 3) 480V#2A to MCC2A-5 *not vital if fire in SWGR. Room 4) MCC2A-4 to Bat. Chgr #1 5) S2 DC Control Power Feeds 6) S2 DC Power Feed to MCC-DC-11A-2 (1-IC-3 Valve) 7) S2 DC Power Feed to Dist. Pal. DC-11A-2 (ADS Valves) 8) S2 Battery Tie to DC Swbd. #1 9) MCC2A-5 to Standby Battery Charger #11A *not required if fire in SWGR. Room At this stage of the discussion, the reader should refer to the reference drawings for the actual routings of cables. Particular attention should be paid to S2 de control power cables that run in close proximity to S1 switchgear and cables. NNECO has identified these Appendix R interferences and has proposed modifications to meet the intent of Appendix R. The assumption that one fire would engulf the whole area covered by the three zones is incredible due to the large area of the zones. For this reason NNECO treated the review of these zones as though the whole area was divided into four smaller areas (See Figure T.19.2). Applying the 20 foot separation criterion as well as placement of one-hour fire barriers to determine the common boundaries or tnese areas, a fire was postulated in the areas, one at a time; to determine which shutdown capability would be lost and to identify alternative capability. With the incorporation of the above identified modifications, destruction of each area would be accomodated as follows: Table 2 Area Fire Zones Shutdown Capability l 1 T-19C, T-19D & portion of T-19E S2 Shutdown Capability (LPC1/ ADS or Iso. Cond/ ADS) 2 portions of T-19E (north side of S1 Shutdown Capability (FWC1) DC equipment room) 3 portion of T-19E (south side of S2 Shutdown Capability (LPCI/ ADS or DC equipment room) Iso. Cond/ ADS) 4 West end of T-19E S1 and S2 options l
The following discussion details NNECO's proposed modifications. Proposed Modification #1 provides for enclosure of several S2 cables in a 1-hour rated fire barrier. Figure T-19.3 diagrams the proposed reroute and fire protection of these cables throughout the area. It should be noted that S2 cable protection stops at the point near the 3-hour wall that separates the cable fr.om 4kV Switchgear #7. This proposed modification provides fire protection in areas 1 and 3 of the 3 fire zones. Proposed Modification #2.provides for the installation of fire stops in intervening cable trays in "a manner so as to prevent propagation of a fire from Fire Zone T-19B to area 1 and from area 1 or 3 to area 2. This modification l directly addresses the intervening combustibles portion of the exemption. l Proposed modification #3 will be incorporated to provide a water curtain between the S-1 and S-2 redundant switchgear. The water curtain would be a wet pipe system and would provide directional spray over the wing walls and curbed area as shown on supplemental sketch. This would selectively apply water to provide a barrier only and not spray water over vital equipment. The proposed water curtain and curbing would be provided to separate fire zone T-19B from both T-19A and T-19C. The proposed wet pipe water curtain sprinkler system would add another dimension to the defense-in-depth concept, not only from the suppression consideration, but also from its detection capability. Should the early warning ionization detection system fail, the fusible link element of the water curtain would activate under a fire condition, water would flow, and the water flow alarm would annunciate in the control room. Modification #4 will assure that a postulated large flammable liquid l spill would be restricted / contained to only one safety division area. The installation of an automatic suppression system throughout the cable tray system in the switchgear room is not feasible for the following reasons. 1. A water spray suppression system is not compatible with the type of equipment located in the area. Water dropping from overhead on indoor switchgear could cause faults and tripping of power to vital shutdown loads, thus compromising plant safety. In the context of 10CFR50.48, installation of a sprinkler system in this fire zone would be detrimental to overall plant safety. 2. An automatic suppression system using CO2 gas would be ineffective due to the fact that the volume of the switchgear room is too large. 3. The nature of the switchgear room lends itself to manual suppres-sion. (a) The room is very accessible to fire brigades and (b) water would not be sprayed indiscriminate 1y throughout the room. NNECO concludes that with the installation of the proposed alternatives, the intent of Section III.G.2 of Appendix R is achieved. Reference Drawings 34013, 34014

l GENERAL POSITION ON INTERVENING COMBUSTIBLES Appendix R, Section III.G.2.b provides an NRC acceptable option which will assure that one redundant safety train is free of fire damage. It states: " Separation of cables and equipment and associated non-safety circuits of redun' ant trains by a horizontal distance of more than 20 feet with d no intervening combustibles or fire hazards. In addition, fire detectors and an automatic fire suppression system shall be installed f in the fire area." l The intent of this option is obvious--provide assurance that a fire cannot spread to redundant safety divisions by propagating through the mechanism of intervening combustibles. s The term " intervening combustibles" has not, to our knowledge, been i specifically defined in any NRC publications, either in the form of regulation or guidance documents. In absence of clear definitions or guidelines on the subject of intervening combustibles, it was necessary for NNECO to develop and apply its own methods and criteria for utilizina Option III.G.2.b of Appendix R. ( In developing these criteria, the most conservative approach was first l evaluated. For this case it was postulated that safety systems com-ponents/ cables could be located literally hundreds of feet apart with t l a 1/4" diameter telephone cable connecting or extending to a point within the 20 feet allowed separation. A strict interpretation of Option III.G.2.b would conclude that this telephone cable was an in-tervening combustible and therefore the regulation would not recognize this situation as an acceptable configuration. Since this type of conservatism is built into Appendix R, then this Option III.G.2.b is effectively useless within the availability and use of a rational exemption evaluation process. From a realistic and practical viewpoint, it can be concluded that a fire involving one safety division will not propagate hundreds of feet via the referenced intervening combustible to damage its redundant counterpart. As discussed above, a strict interpretation of intervening combustibles could render this option useless and therefore reasonable judgment should be applied during the exemption review process. The intent of Appendix R Option III.G.2.b is to assure that fire will not damage a safe shutdown system and then propagate through intervening com-bustibles and damage a redundant division located 20 feet or more apart. With this clarification the following are the guidelines / parameters used by NNECO during its Appendix R review involving NRC Option III.G.2.b. s a
l 1 GENERAL POSITION ON INTERVENING COMBUSTIBLES - Page 2 1. Intervening combustibles are assumed to be installed (in-situ) combustibles. Considerations of transient combustibles renders Section III.G.2.b' option useless as intervening transient com-bustibleh can be postulated for any nituation; thus, we have concluded that in-situ combustibles represent a reasonable interpretation. ( ce2. Electrical cables classified as " flame retardant" and having been demonstrated to successfully pass the flame test specified in IEEE Standard 383 can be considered to be " intervening combustibles," but are recognized as fire retardant and l represent a significantly reduced threat to safe shutdown l integrity.
- 3.
Non-fire retardant cables such as PE/PVC insulated and jacketed cables which are protected with a flame retardant mastic (such as (Flammastic) applied per approved procedures are considered the equal of IEEE Standard 383 qualified fire retardant cables, and as such can be " intervening combustibles," but are con-sidered fire retardant as discussed above for IEEE 383 cables. 4. Cabling installed in conduit is not considered " intervening combustibles" regardless of the fire retardant characteristics of the cable insulation and jacketing system. f
- Additional information to support guidelines #2 and #3 is attached.
THE MERITS OF 383 CABLE AS A FLAME RETARDANT IEEE Standard 383 (1974) prescribes the method for testing grouped cables via the vertical tray flame test to determine relative ability to resist fire. Specifically, the flame test is intended to demonstrate that a test specimen does not propagate fire under conditions'of'; installation, even if its outer covering and insula-tion have been destroyed in the area of flame impingement. Please note this test represents worst case condition by testing cables in a vertical position. Cables which propagate the flame and burn the total height of the tray above the flame source fail the test (total height is six feet above the flame source). Cables which self-extinguish when the flame source is shut off are allowed to burn out in order to determine the extent of damage. If the damage extends beyond six feet, the cables fail the test. l Therefore, IEEE 383 qualified cables installed in a vertical tray, can withstand severe localized fire damage without danger of excessive fire propagation along their lengths, once the source of fire is removed / extinguished. Independent tests have demonstrated that when IEEE 383 qualified cables are installed in horizontal trays, fire propagation is even less credible. More significantly, tests have also demonstrated that the fire retardant characteristics of IEEE 383 cables permit them to maintain electrical circuit integrity for up to ten minutes into the most severe fire condition. Pasem on IEEE 383 testings, it is concluded that cabling qualified by the 383 test can be considered fire retardant and that it does restrict or retard fire propagation. Typically, there is little threat to the integrity of safe shutdown capability by the presence of such qualified cables. in an " intervening" configuration.

i l FLAMEMASTIC - AS AN EFFECI A n. mu. MARDAiG Fltmesastic is compose'd of a polyvinyl acetate binder, flame retardant cdditives and inorganic fillers and fibers. The polyvinyl acetate binder forms a tough, weather-resistant, permanent coating which encapsulates the cable. The. fire retardant additives include antimony oxide, chlorinated hydrocarb,ons and a phosphate plasticizer. These materials function synergistically to inhibit the flammability of the binder and all flammable substrates to which the coating is applied. Wh:n exposed to a fire, the coating functions to provide fire retardant properties through a combination of the following series of actions: 1. An ablative process, consisting of dehydration and other endothermic chemical reactions coupled with the formation of a carbonaceous char, which reduces the heat transmission to the protected object. 2. Radiation of a significant amount of heat away from the protected object emanating from the carbonaceous char and the inorganic components of the coating which form a surface of high heat emmissivity. 3. A heat insulation effect provided by the coating of high temperatures to reduce the heat transferred to the protected object. Although the coating has been designed to offer limited insulation at room temperature in order to minimize ampacity derating effects on cables, it functions as an effective heat insulator. 4. The fire retardant additives form products in the fire which inhibit the combustion process and minimize the flammability of materials in the vicinity of the fire. 5. The coating itself and the inorganic fibrous residue that remains after the organic binder has been pyrolized form a barrier that effectively prevents the access of oxygen to the flammable materials that are being protected. Basically, Flamemastic protection involves the encapsulation of cabling with a coating that will not propagate flame, that is, it will not burn l I in the ordinary sense of the term. Flamemastic prevents the process that allows 'non-burning' cables to support each others combustion when grouped in trays or bundles. In many independent tests, both in this country and abroad, it has been shown that a fire source that will cause unprotected grouped cables to ignite, burn completely and propagate fire, will cause little or no damage to Flamemastic protected grouped cables. In a situation where a large heat source impinges directly on Flamemastic coated cables, the cables will ultimately be destroyed at the point of ficae impingement but the coating will completely prevent propagation of fleae away from the point. Sore fire tests have shown that a 1/16 inch coating of Flamemastic on rendomly grouped cables in a cable tray will not cause the cables to heat excessively when operated in accordance with the current limitations specified by the National Electric Code for such conditions.
I s... Other fire tests have shown that a self spreading fire will not occur in esbles installed in either horizontal or vertical cable trays which are coated with Flamemastic and exposed to a fire of moderate intensity. Flcmemastic complies with Factory Mutual requirements and it is approved for the protection of grouped combustible insulated cables against a self-spreading fire originating within the cables or from exposure to an external ignition source of moderate intensity. The United States Testing Company performed standard flame spread, smoke l drasity and fuel contributed tests on a 1/4 inch Johns Manville Flex-board coated with a 1/16 inch (dry) film thickness of Flamemastic fire barrier coating in accordance with ASTM Designation E-84, " Standard Mathod of Test for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials". The results showed that Flamemastic has a flame spread rating of 10, a fuel contribution of 0 and a smoke density classification of 30. (See copy of Test Report No. LA12396). Attached are copies of two certified test reports for tests conducted at the Kerite Company fire test facility in 1977. The objective of the tests was to demonstrate that the cables and raceways, as tested, would not propagate a fire, even if the outer covering and insulation of the cables had been destroyed in the area of flame impingement, when exposed to an IEEE Standard 383 (1974) flame source. The cables used were 7/C and 4/C #10, 1,000 V, polyethylene insulated conductors and PVC jacketed cables which are representative, in every respect, of the type of cable originally installed at the Haddam Neck Plant. The tray arragement used for the tests was also typical of those errangements found at the Plant. Two layers of ten feet lengths of test cable were mounted in the tray with no cable spacings in between. Each layer consisted of fifteen cables, half from each conductor make-up placed in alternating sequence, for a total of thirty cables. The tray arrangement was tested with (test Reference No. 3) and without (test Reference No. 8) the application of Flamemastic. Six cables were chosen at rendom for each test, three from each layer, for energizing with a 240V power source which was also used to monitor the electrical integrity of the cables during the tests. The only difference between the standard test procedure (IEEE 383) and the Kerite tests, was the cable spacing in the tray which is more representative of conditions at the Plant. However, approximations to installed conditions are permitted by the standard. It is NNECO's conclusion that the Flamemastic material provides exceptional protection for cables subjected to a direct flame. Also that the Flamemastic caterial effectively prevents fire from spreading in the horizontal direction. Finally that the protective system offers an excellent warning system both visually (white smoke) and by odor.

The test specimen was installed in a 12-inch wide, 3-inch deep,11-foot high f tray. A 240 volt power source was used to monitor the electrical integrity during the test. D. TEST PROCEDURE Two layers of 10 foot lengths of test cable were mounted in the tray with no cable spacings. Each layer consisted of fifteen cables, half from each , makeup, placed in an alternating sequence, for a total of thirty cables. Six cables were chosen at random, three from each layer, and energized with the 240 volt power source. - - - - - i
,3, Test No. 77 VG 58-C Ref. No. 8 The flame source was adjusted so that the temperature was approximately 0 p500 F and approximately 15 inches in length. Under dynamic conditions, the <ollowing manometer readings were recorded for both air and fuel in centi-meters of water: Air Fuel
- 4. 5
- 2. 9 These pressures were measured for both air and fuel at the inlet of the (mixer.
The flame source was placed on the front side of the tray at a 3-inch dis-
- tance from the cables and allowed to burn for twenty minutes. At the end of itwenty minutes, the flame source was shut off and the cables allowed to burn juntil they self-extinguished or were totally consumed. All pertinent data was
' recorded. The temperatures indicated in the next section were measured by 7 a thermocouple located 2 /8" from the burner face. l lE. TEST DATA *
- 1. Time for specimen to ignite:
Within the first three minutes.
- 2. Time specimen continued to burn after removal of flame
) source: Was not recorded. 3. Maximum length of sample damage: Cable samples totally consumed.
- 4. Time for electrical breakdown:
4 minutes, 45 seconds (Line two to ground) 5 minutes, I second (Line one) i
- 5. Heat input 63,000 BTU /hr.
CBacause of the severity of the smoke and fire, the test was halted at 15 minutes. 'T
