MEMORANDUM FOR:
C. J. Anderson, RI V. Benaroya, URR T. E. Conlo7, RII C. I Grimes, NRR W. S. Little, RIII Y. A. Moore, NRR S. D. Richardson, IE W. M. Shields, ELD FROM:

SUBJECT:
PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE STANDARD TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS ON FIRE PROTECTION i.
As agreed to during our meeting on November 16, 1984, some of the Bethesda based members of the W. G. attempted to revise tne W Standard Te inical Specifications (the CRGR package version) to incorporate all of the coments from the W. G. into a single document. The results of this effort are pro-v'ded in the markup of the STS (Enclosure 1). We have also prepared a draft memorandum to the Steering Comittee (Enclosure 2) transmitting a final re-comended revisions package.
(
Please review and ccm ent on the proposed STS revision and on the conclusions and recoment.iations contained in the draf t memorandum. I would like to obtain a W. G. consensus on this, difficult as this might be. Therefore, to the l
extent possible, please frame your coments in terms of specific word changes and identify those deemed essential for your concurrence on the final package.
Your coments are requested prior to January 4,1985.
I have designated Chris Grimes as the Acting Chairman of the W. G while I am on annual leave during the Holidays. Please send your coments to both Chris and myself. A full W. G. meeting to consider the. final package is tentatively scheduled for Jan. 10-11, 1985, so keep the dates open.
Best wishes for the Moliday Season, and may you find an identical draft copy of the perfect STS on Fire Protection in your stocking on Christmas morning.
Faust Rosa, Chairman Fire Protection Policy Working Group

This limitation will.#nsure that leakage fr'em Byproduct, Source,
. and Special Huclear Material sources will not exceed allowable intake yalues.
Sealed sources are classified into three groups according to their use, with Surveillance Requirements :ommensurate with the probability of damage to a

source in that group.
Those scurces which are frequently handled are required

/
colitinuously enclosed within a shielded mechanism (i.e., sealed sources within,
radiati.on monitoring or boron measurin'g devices) are considere,d to be stored and need not be tested unless they are removed from the shielded mechanism.

FIRE PROTECTION POLICY WORKING GROUP REVIEW OF STANDARD TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION 5 FOR FIRE PROTECTION k

The Working Group reviewed Standard Technical Specifications (STS) taking into g
account coments from Regions I, II and III (Reference 1, ? and 3). The CRGR package version of the Westinghouse STS was used as t'he basis document.
The Working Group atternpted to simplify and clarify the STS and added speci-fications for alternative and dedicated shutdown systems, portable fire extinguishers and ernergency lehting. The rationale for these additions is I
that these features are explicitly included in Appendix R.
The STS as marked I.,

G
- O R. Vollmer,
t The Wor' king Group is not entirely satisfied with its revisions to the STS.
Although we believe the surveillance and LCOs concerning fire protection enhance safety, we are concerned that the way they are presented elevates fire protection almost to the stature of ECCS. However, given the safety signifi-cance of fire protection and the present format of the STS, the Working Group could not come up with an acceptable alternative.
\\
We believe that the technical specification format included in the proposed rulemaking offers a more appropriate way of regulating fire protection sur-veillance and compensatory measures for inoperative equipment. The rule-making (47FR13369, 3/30/82) calls for only the most important features to be included in the body of the technical specifications. The LCOs, compensatory measures, surveillance requirements, and administrative requirements of lesser importance but still important to safety removed from the technical specifica-tions are to be placed in a companion document (supplemental specifications).
The supplemental specification may be revised by the licensee upon approval of its safety comittee. The supplemental specifications and the documentation of surveillance and tests conducted in accordance with the suppleme.ntal speci-
~
fications are subject to NRC inspection.
We recomend that the "r.ew" Tcchnical Specifications include an ahinistrative requirement for the licensee to maintain a procedure for surveillance and compensatpry measures for inoperative equipment. This procedure wCJld not be

a part of the Technical Specifications but would be included in and therefore could be revised by the licensee en approval of the licensee's safety comittee without NRC approval. However, the procedure and the records of surveillances and compensatory r.easures could be inspected by the region.
The Working Group recomends as an interim measure that the Standard Technical Specifications be modified in accordance with the enclosure to this memorandum.
We further recomend that when (or if) the new Technical Specification format of the proposed rulemaking is adopted, the detailed fire protection LCOs and surveillance requirements be dropped in favor of an administrative requirement for the maintenance of a procedure for surveillance and compensatory action.

DEC 101984 MEMORANDUM FOR:
Victor Stello, Jr., DEDROGR Harold R. Denton, Director, NRR Richard C. DeYoung Director, IE FROM:
William J. Dircks Executive Director for Operations
SUBJECT:
FIRE PROTECTION POLICY STEERING ComITTEE RECOM ENDATIONS In a memorandum dated October 26, 1984, the Fire Protection Policy Steering Comittee provided me with their recomended actions on the fire protection policy and program. Coments on these recomendations have been received from the appropriate program and regional offices. The individual coments are enclosed.
These coments, although generally supportive of the Steering Comittae's work, raise a nunber of serious questions which need to be answered before a na proceed to the Comission on this matter. They are.:,
1.
Are all the recomendations technically justified from the safety standpoint?
2.
Are the resource estimates correct?
3.
How will the inspection program be impacted to the extent that resources will be diverted from other activities?
4.
Considering the current status of fire protection capability at, operating i
plants, does the current risk dictate the reprograming of inspection resources for fire protection inspection?
5.
Is the magnitude of the safety problem comensurate with the proposed actions; e.g., no further schedular exemptions?
6.
Should the revised interpretations and Questions and answers be issued and what impact will they have on the overall program?
7.
Do the recomendations go beyond what the Comission intended in promulgating Appendix R?
In light of the above, I have decided to proceed in the following way:
1.
The Director, NRR, should release the report of the Steering Comittee to j
the PDR and invite coment by interested parties. Coments should be analyzed by NRR with assistance from IE and ELD as needed. This analysis should be provided as part of a Comission paper.
. ~

\\
2 2.
The Director, NRR, should provide a quantitative estimate of the public risk associated with fire from operating plants based on their current status; 1.e., incomplete core 11ance with Appendix R.
This estimate should be based on your review of pertinent existing PRAs that have been reviewed by NRC. The ROGR staff should be kept infonned of 2
progress in this area. This estimate and associated basis should be provided in the Comission paper.
3.
The Director. IE, should provide an evaluation of the reprograming of inspection activities that will be necessary in order to implement the 1
Steering Comittee's recomendations regarding inspection. Inspection activities to be reprogramed shall be identified and a basis provided.
i 1his report shall be provided to NRR for the Comission paper and shall be consistent with the results of Task 2.
4.
The Director, NRR, with assistance from the Directors of IE and ELD should prepare a Comission paper that addresses the activities to date and provides specific recomendations for Comission approval. TMt paper should address the specific questions identified above. Target date for providing the paper to the CRGR for review is February 1,1985.
5.
CRGR should review the proposed Comission paper, address each.of the above questions, and make specific recomendations to me not,later than
.'30 days after receipt from NRR.
1 I expect appropriate management representatives from NRR, IE and the Steering Comittee to attend the CRGR meetings on this issue to respond to CRGR questions.

P}OPOSED FIJE PR7ECTICN 2EOl SPECS M/ cnly cx2 ment is that scne of the 7tch Spe:s (including the propoed 3/4.7.13 t.14) are rather more philosophical than necessary. See pages B 3/4 3-5,6, B 3/4 7-6,7, for exr:ple. (As an aside, dare did this incr=diMa nir: baring systm ocme finn?) % preference is that Tech Spem state specifically what is required without explaining dry. The dry could go in a backgrtund section screders if "necessary. I see no reasem to add 3/4.7.13 & 14 at all, since it mazely statas the "dafense in depth" principle.
I have no ccr:r:ents en other proposed changes.
Bill -
The Tech Spec numbering sequence was developed as follows: Section 3.X.Y is the set of LCOs for system X and subsystem Y. Section 4.X.Y is the j
surveillance requirements for the same system and subsystem. They are combined into section 3/4 so that the LCOs and surveillance requirenents would appear together for each subsystem.
Section B 3/4.X.Y is the "bases" and provides the background for the LCOs and surveillance for that subsyster; they are not specs and are intended to be philosophical. The specific section you referred to is in the bases.
