Dear Mr. Denton:

On February 22, 1983 the NRC issued the Safety Evaluation Report (SER) for Catawba Nuclear Station. Section 9.5.1 discussed the Fire Protection Program.

Attached are comments and additional infor
nation related to this protion of the SER.

Catawba Nuclear Station Comments on SER Section 9.5.1 Fire Protection r 9,.5.1.5 Control of Combustibles Bulk gas (hydrogen) storage is located in the plant yard. Cylinders are ,

arranged with the long axis parallel to building walls. Piping inside the Auxiliary Building is Duke Class F which is designed to maintain pressure i boundaries during the Design Basis Seismic Event. In each Reactor Building there are two 150 lb. hydrogen cylinders and associated piping which provides a gas " blanket" for Reactor Coolant Pump drain tanks. Piping is Class F as j described above. Cylinders are seismically restrained. Drawings showing

hydrogen and oxygen pipe routing in the Auxiliary and Reactor Buildings are i sttached (Attachment 1).

9.5.1.6 Safe Shutdown for Fires (Appendix R)

A safe shutdown analysis will be provided by July 1983 and will include drawings j marked to show cable routing inside containment, Standby Shutdown System cable routing in the Auxiliary Building and a discussion of associated circuits.

9.5.1.7 Fire Detection Ultraviolet and photoelectric detectors are used in addition to fixed tempera-ture, rate-of-rise and ionization detectors. A corrected list of rooms where fire detection is not provided is attached (Attachment 2). A sketch detailing i normal and backup power supplies for the fire detection system (EFA) is also  ;

included (Attachment 3).

9.5.1.7 Fire Protection Water Supp);E The full water demand for the largest sprinkler system and hose demand (3645 j- GPM as presently designed) can be met with a single fire pump (i.e., with two pumps out of service). Copies of acceptance test performance curves for "A" and "B" fire pumps are included (Attachment 4) . Pump "C" data vill be provided when available.

9.5.1.7 Sprinkler and Standpipe Systems Reactor Coolant Pump and pipe corridor sprinkler systems are manually actuated.

Sprinklers will be provided in the annulus between redundant cable trains if separation is determined to be less than Appendix E requirements.

9.5.1.8 Reactor Building Electrical penetrations and mechanical pipe penetrations are sealed to provide three hour fire rated barriers. U.L. listed fire dampers are not provided in HVAC ducts which penetrate the Reactor Building wall.

The Containment Purge System (described in FSAR Section 9.4.5) has four pene-trations per unit, located in the vicinity of column HH-52 (Unit 2 at HH-62) on Elevation 594+0 (penetrations are located at elevations 600'+0" - 606'+0").

Two penetrations are 28 inches by 68 inches. Ducts are \ inch steel plate designed to allow thermal and seismic movement. These penetrations are flashed with 3/8 inch stainless steel angles similar to fire damper sleeve arrangement.

A "zero leakage" damper is provided in each duct constructed of inch carbon steel plate housings and inch carbon steel blades as compared with 18 gauge galvanized steel housing and 22 gauge blades of typical fire dampers. The other two penetrations of the containment purge system consist of 10 inch diameter, schedule 40 stainless steel pipe also designed for thermal and seismic movement.

A motor operated valve serves as a damper in each of these penetrations. All "zero leakage" dampers and motor operated valves are normally closed and fail closed.

The Annulus Ventilation System (described in FSAR Section 9.4.9) has four penetrations per unit in the Reactor Building walls in the general vicinity of the Containment Purge System penetrations. Penetrations are 30 inches by 28 inches constructed of k inch stainless steel plate designed to allow thermal and seismic movement. The Annulus Ventilation System is an engineered safety feature system. This system functions to effect a negative pressure with respect to the containment and the atmosphere within 60 seconds following a LOCA. If fire dampers were to be included in the design of this system, the potential for inadvertent closure of a damper would decrease the reliability of this systen. In addition, the duct is sealed to maintain integrity of the secondary containment so that dampers could not be reopened in the event of inadvertent closure.

The area around these eight penetrations is generally void of combustibics with fire detectors on each side of the wall. There are no power or control cables important to safe shutdown in the vicinity of these penetrations. Therefore, it is concluded that not providing fire dampers in the Containment Purge and Annulus Ventilation Systems is an acceptable deviation from the recommendations of the Standard Review Plan (NUREG-0800), Section 9.5.1 and is consistent with the NRC's previous approval of similarly designed systems at other facilities.

9.5.1.8 Control Room Control room doors are constructed in accordance with U.L. methods for fire resistance but are not " approved" because of pressure resistance and other l modifications.

9.5.1.8 Safety Related Batteries As stated in the Catawba Fire Hazard Analysis, page C-29,.the Standby Shutdown System is available following loss of all functions.in fire areas 9 and 10.

This will be confirmed by the electrical cable separation submittal. When i this is confirmed by the Staff, requirement for sprinklers in these fire areas

-will be relieved, i-d 6
