All fire rated assemblies (walls, floora/ ceilings, cable tray enclosures and other fire barriers) separating redundant analyzed Post Fire Safe Shutdown Equipment or,

  • safety from non-safety related areas or, J
  • containment from non-containment areas, and all sealing devices (fire doors, fire windows , fire dampers, cable, piping and ventilation duct penetration seals) in fire rated assembly penetrations shall be OPERABLE.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

REMEDIAL ACTION:

a. With one or more of the above required fire rated assemblies and/or sealing devices inoperable, within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> either establish a continuous fire watch on at least one side of the affected assembly, or verify the OPERABILITY of fire detectors on at least one side of the inoperable assembly and establish an hourly fire watch patrol.

TESTING REQUIREMENTSt

a. At least once per 18 months the above required fire rated assemblies and penetration sealing devices shall be verified j OPERABLE, by performing a visual inspection of

BASES:

The functional integrity of the fire rated assemblies, including associated penetration seals, ensures that fires will be confined or adequately retarded so that the following criteria is achieved:

  • Fire will not damage redundant analyzed Post Fire Safe Shutdown equipment,
  • Fire will not spread from the balance of plant to the Control Complex,
  • Fire will not spread from non-safety related areas to safety related areas.
  • Fire will not spread from non-containment areas to containment areas.

The fire related assemblies and associated penetration seals are a passive element in the facility fire protection program and are subject to periodic inspections.

Fire rated assemblies, including associated penetration seals (fire doors, fire windows, fire dampers, cable, piping and ventilation duct penetration seals) are considered operable when the visually observed condition is not degraded to a point that the assembly cannot perform the function that is intended. For fire rated assemblies that are questionable, an evaluation shall be performed to determine the cause of any identified abnormal change in appearance or abnormal degradation and the effect of this change or, the ability of the fire rated assembly to perform its function.

During periods of time when a fire rated assembly is not operable, eithers. (1) a continuous fire watch is required to be maintained in the vicinity of the affected barrier, or (2) the fire detectors on at least one side of the affected barrier must be verified OPERABLE and an hourly fire watch patrol established until the barrier is restored to operable status.

This Selected Licensee Commitment is part of the McGuire Fire Protection Program and therefore subject to the provisions of McGuire Facility Operating License Conditions C.(4) [ Unit 1] and C.(7) [ Unit 2).
