USAR section 3.6.2.7.2.1 also indicates more specifically that approximately 75 percent of the Fire Water system has been seismically supported to prevent falling pipe or flooding from affecting safety related equipment.

Protection for inadvertent actuation of sprinkler system is provided where the Section 4 of this document indicates that the component must be protected to ensure safe shutdown capability in the event of a fire and where review of the design documents indicates the component cannot survive the water spray.

The results of the NFPA 92M, Waterproofing Draining of Floors compliance review are documented in Toledo Edison letter to NRC dated July 31, 1989 (Serial No. 1685). The evaluation of drainage capabilities determined that there is adequate capability to remove the anticipated water from fire suppression activities to prevent immediate damage to equipment which could result in adverse consequences. Some rooms, such as Room 318 and 319, may require a door be opened to route water to an adjacent area.

5. B2. (Continued)

Resins are not stored in the Unit but in a separate structure. They are to be brought into the Unit when needed. Refer to item G2. Resins in bags are inside plastic drums. Condensate polishing and demineralizer resins are an exception in that they are stored in pails located in the Turbine Building.

The fuel handling areas will not normally contain the diesel truck fuel. Since the space is limited and the fumes objectionable to personnel, the preferred method is to unhook the trailer and park the tractor outside.

Oxygen and acetylene used for welding are to be stored in a sprinklered shop area when not in use. Refer to Item G1.

Ammonia and hydrazine are stored in a separate building. Approximately one 5-gallon glass bottle in a styrofoam case and one 15-gallon drum, respectively, would be anticipated at each of the 2 mixing tank locations. The contents of the cabinets is not considered to be a fuel source readily available for consumption by a postulated fire in the room. Note that the results of the fire hazards analysis for Room 405 (Fire Area V) indicates that, given a fire in the room, the ability to achieve safe shutdown is not precluded.

This is discussed in Section 4.V.

Such training can only be accomplished by conducting drills several times a year (at least quarterly) so that all members of the fire brigade have had the opportunity to train as a team, testing itself in the major areas of the plant. The drills should include the simulated use of equipment in each area and should be preplanned and post-critiqued to establish the training objective of the drills and determine how well these objectives have been met. These drills should periodically (at least annually) include local fire department participation where possible. Such drills also permit supervising personnel to evaluate the effectiveness of communications within the fire brigade and with the on scene fire team leader, the reactor operator in the Control Room, and the offsite command post.

The smoke generating characteristics of the carpet are tested in accordance with NFPA 258, Smoke Generation of Solid Materials. Test results must yield a corrected maximum specific optical density of 0-450. The fuel contribution of the carpet is accounted for by incorporating a conservative heat load factor into the Control Room combustible loading analysis. This carpeting is not expected to contribute significantly to the control room fire load. There is little risk involved with using this carpet. Even if a fire in the Control Room were to occur, the fire would be quickly extinguished, resulting in no adverse consequences, as discussed in Section 4.FF. The advantages of the carpet far outweigh the risk of fire. The carpeting enhances the Control Room environment, providing a more desirable place in which to work. The noise reduction characteristics and visual stimulation result in an enhanced ability to react, the subdued effect of the carpeting subtly reducing the monotony of the routine visual, audible, and physical actions of Control Room operation.

These dampers are normally closed and are opened automatically when the charcoal bed temperature reaches a preset level following a fan failure. The design of the EVS is such that it renders a loss of cooling air to the filters due to fan failure as incredible.

The assumptions and results of the analysis to find out the minimum air flow required to prevent desorption of radionuclides are summarized as follows:

a. Assumptions
1. All radioiodine and methyl iodide as a result of a LOCA are assumed to be absorbed in one EVS filter unit. Other sources of radioiodine and methyl iodide would be less severe.
2. The Containment Vessel leak rate is assumed to be 0.5 percent per day of the contained air weight.
3. The ambient air temperature is assumed to be 120° F.
4. Desorption of the radionuclides is assumed to begin at 302° F.
5. Heat transfer from the charcoal filters to the surroundings is neglected.
b. Results
1. The peak heating rate of the charcoal filters is calculated to be 613 Btu/hr.

FHAR Rev 29 9/2020

Davis-Besse Unit 1 Fire Hazard Analysis Report Appendix D (Sheet 37)

Compliance Matrix to Appendix A Appendix A Position Page Section Davis-Besse Unit 1

20. D4. (d) (Continued) 2. The minimum required air flow to maintain the charcoal filters below the desorption temperature is approximately 20 cfm. In addition to the conservative assumptions used in the computation, the air flow used for cooling is 150 cfm.

Temperature switches are provided in the air space between the random charcoal elements to indicate excessive bed heating. Temperature switches are set to alarm in the Control Room at 200° F to provide sufficient time for remedial action.

Thus, the low-flow air bleed system is designed to offset possible iodine desorption and absorbent auto ignition that may result from radioactivity induced heat in the absorbent and concomitant temperature rise. This is within acceptance criteria established by Regulatory Guide 1.52, Section 3, Paragraph K.

II. CHARCOAL FILTERS IN AUXILIARY BUILDING Cooling of the adsorber section of the charcoal filters in the Control Room emergency Ventilation System and the lab hood exhaust of the Radwaste Area HVAC System is achieved by:

a. Heat transfer via convection: since the surrounding air is at lower temperature than the adsorber section, occurrence of continuous heat transfer would occur.

FHAR Rev 29 9/2020

Davis-Besse Unit 1 Fire Hazard Analysis Report Appendix D (Sheet 38)

Compliance Matrix to Appendix A Appendix A Position Page Section Davis-Besse Unit 1

20. D4. (d) (Continued) b. Steady air heat transfer: steady air at room ambient temperature is sufficient to cool the peak heating rate of the charcoal filter.

To protect filter against ignition, the heaters are not installed adjacent to or integral with the charcoal medium. Calculations indicate that heat load due to radioisotopes is insufficient to ignite charcoal.

Temperature switches are provided in the air space between the random charcoal elements to indicate excessive bed heating. Temperature switches are set to alarm in the Control Room at 200° F to provide sufficient time for remedial action.

Per our design analysis, the charcoal filters in these systems are not expected to experience significant radioactivity induced heat resulting in iodine desorption and adsorbent auto ignition as the heating rate of the charcoal is so low that the cooling of adsorbent section via convection and steady air heat transfer is sufficient to offset radioactive induced heat. Thus, the intent of Regulatory Guide 1.52, Section 3, Paragraph K is fulfilled.

Cooling of the adsorber section of the charcoal filters in the Containment Purge System is achieved by:

a. Heat transfer via convection: since the surrounding air is at a lower temperature than the adsorber section, occurrence of continuous heat transfer would occur.

smoke, high temperature, radiation). The temperature switch (setpoint 135° F), smoke detector or radiation detection system will trip the fan and isolate the filters upon indication of an abnormal condition.

The charcoal filters in the Containment Purge Exhaust System are not expected to experience significant radioactivity induced heat resulting in desorption and adsorbent auto ignition. The system isolation features and cooling via convection heat transfer is sufficient to meet the intent of Regulatory Guide 1.52, Section 3, Paragraph K.

All with portable extinguishers in the Control parts of the door except the heat and oil treated neoprene gasket around the Room are acceptable. perimeter of the door are noncombustible. The gasket material on the perimeter of the door is required to provide a watertight seal. This door is made watertight to prevent steam and water flooding into the Control Room from the Auxiliary Building in the event of a pipe rupture. A 3-hour rated door was added in series with this watertight door to assure the required fire resistance rating of 3-hours.

As discussed in Section 4.FF, the design of the Control Room is such that a fire in an essential cabinet should only affect the cabinet, not the cabinet housing the redundant essential component. Physical separation of redundant channels, barriers installed between cabinets, barriers installed between redundant essential channels within cabinets, and sealing to prevent the passage of fire and smoke, not only between essential cabinets, but between the Main Control Room and the Cable Spreading Room, are design features included in the Control Room to minimize the risk of a fire adversely affecting the ability to achieve Safe Shutdown.

Portable extinguishers are provided inside the Control Room and hose stations adjacent to the Control Room are provided. Hose stations are located outside the Control Room to prevent pipe failure in the Control Room.

Also, addition of an electrically controlled shutoff or manual shutoff with FHAR Rev 29 9/2020

35. F2. (Continued) penetration seal and associated reducer is not required since the hose station is not inside the Control Room. Water nozzles are of the adjustable spray type. Any nozzle that applies water in the vicinity will cause equipment operation to be unreliable. If the reactor is in operation, hose station use is considered a step that follows after initiation of remote Safe Shutdown.

As discussed in Section 4.FF, the Control/Cabinet Room Fire Detection System consists of 17 ionization detectors. Nine of the ionization detectors are installed in the main control boards (vertical panels) that extend from floor to ceiling and contain cables of 2 safety related trains. The remaining 8 ionization detectors are mounted at ceiling height within the confines of the Control/Cabinet Room. A thermal fire detector is a combined rate of rise and fixed temperature detector and is located in the kitchen area. In addition to the above there are 2 photoelectric smoke detectors and 2 temperature detectors in the return air ducts from the Control Room. In addition, fire alarms from any part of the Unit are annunciated in the Control Room.

Smoke detectors are also provided in the main supply air duct of the Control Room normal air conditioning system. Smoke, if any, that enters the supply duct through the outside air intake will be detected by this smoke detector.

Upon detection of smoke, it will automatically alarm and isolate the Control Room by closing the outside air intake and exhaust dampers and shutting down the air conditioning system to protect the operators by preventing smoke from entering the Control Room through the outside air intake. The Control Room and Cable Spreading Room are in communication via a supply air duct and a return air duct. Fire door type dampers rated for 3-hour fire resistance have been installed in these ducts at the floor and wall penetration to isolate the Control Room. Also, provisions exist for manual isolation of the Control Room from the Cable Spreading Room by closing the redundant FHAR Rev 29 9/2020

Smoke removal is further discussed in the pre-fire plans. Self-contained breathing apparatus is available within the boundary of the Control Room for operators use. All cable duct penetrations are sealed with silicone foam to act as a barrier and air seal. Air handling duct penetrations passing through fire partitions are provided with automatic closing, Class A (3-hour) rated fire door type dampers.

The only electrical equipment located in the concealed ceiling space are 7 electric heaters mounted in the HVAC ducts, the lighting fixtures associated with the Control/Cabinet Room, and communications system loudspeakers.

All cables routed in the concealed ceiling space are installed in steel conduit.

Ionization-type smoke detectors, provided in the return air duct, will detect and alarm automatically if there is any smoke generated within the ceiling space, as the return air fan takes its suction from the ceiling space. Further, the BTP-recommended halon suppression system is not desirable for the following reasons:

a. Self-ignition is improbable due to the low voltage and current.
b. The cables are within conduit or other metallic enclosures and so ignition by exposure is improbable.

35. F2. (Continued) (c) A halon suppression system would be ineffective due to leakage through the ceiling and light fixtures. This leakage could be severely aggravated by dislodging the ceiling tiles and light fixtures due to the extremely high halon velocities on discharge.

Nozzles that are compatible with the hazards and equipment in the control room should be provided for manual hose station. The nozzles chosen should satisfy actual fire fighting needs, satisfy electrical safety and minimize physical damage to electrical equipment from hose stream impingement.

Fire detection in the control room cabinets, and consoles should be provided by smoke and heat detectors in each fire area. Alarm and annunciation should be provided in the control room. Fire alarms in other parts of the plant should also be alarms and annunciated in the control room.

Breathing apparatus for control room operators should be readily available. Control room floors, ceiling, support structures, and walls, including penetrations and doors, should be designed to a minimum fire rating of three hours. All penetration seals should be air tight.

The control room ventilation intake should be provided with smoke detection capability to automatically alarm locally and isolate the control room ventilation system to protect operators by preventing smoke from entering the control room. Manually operated venting of the control room should be available so that operators have the option of venting for visibility.

Manually operated ventilation systems are acceptable.

Cables should not be located in concealed floor and ceiling spaces. All spaces that enter the control room should terminate in the control room. That is, no cabinet should be simply routed through the control room from one area to another.

If such concealed spaces are used, however, they should have fixed automatic total flooding halon protection.

(d) Condensate Storage Tank in the Office Building The BWST is a safety related tank and can be utilized as the suction source for the High Pressure Injection (HPI) system, in conjunction with Letdown, as a backup to the normal boration path which utilized one of the boric acid addition tanks via the makeup system. The BWST can also be aligned as the suction source for the makeup pumps.

The BWST is provided with a thermal insulation system applied to its exterior sides (excluding roof). The insulation system consists of a spray applied foam insulation over a protective base coat and is topcoated. The insulation has a flame spread rating of 25 per ASTM E-84. The topcoat can achieve a Class A coating system rating per UL 790. The Condensate FHAR Rev 29 9/2020

46. F16. (Continued) Storage Tank serves as the primary suction source for the Auxiliary Feedwater System. This system is only required when the Main Feedwater System is not available for removal of heat from the steam generators. The Auxiliary Feedwater System also has available a secondary source of water from the Service Water System which would automatically be aligned upon loss of the condensate storage tank source.

The fire hazards evaluation discussed in Section 4 shows that loss of the supply from any one of the above tanks would not preclude achieving a Safe Shutdown. Hose stations are available for all of the above tanks. Portable extinguishers are available for all tanks, with the clarification that an extinguisher would have to be obtained from inside the building for the BWST. The Makeup Tank (c) is located in a pit for shielding from radioactivity with a 4 foot thick concrete hatch, and use of either the hose or extinguisher is highly unlikely. However, a fire in this pit is highly unlikely.

Although a hydrogen line serves this tank, there is no ignition source present.
