SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION The proposed amendment would revise the Renewed Facility Operating License to deviate from a Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS) Fire Protection Program Requirement. The proposed amendment credits the use of portable lighting in certain applications as the primary emergency lighting means for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access egress routes to the equipment in support of post-fire safe shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power. The proposed amendment would replace the requirement of meeting the 8-hour fixed emergency lighting requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Section 111.J referenced in Appendix 9.5E, "10 CFR Part 50 Appendix R Comparison," of the WCGS Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR).
- 2.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION The proposed changes would revise Paragraph 2.C.(5)(a) of the renewed facility operating license and the fire protection program as described in the USAR.
License Condition 2.C.(5)(a) currently states:
(a}
The Operating Corporation shall maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the SNUPPS Final Safety Analysis Report for the facility through Revision 17, the Wolf Creek site addendum through Revision 15, as approved in the SER through Supplement 5, Amendment No. 189, Amendment No. 191, Amendment No. 193, Amendment No. 205, and Amendment No. 214, subject to provisions band c below.
License Condition 2.C.(5}(a) is revised to state:
(a)
The Operating Corporation shall maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the SNUPPS Final Safety Analysis Report for the facility through Revision 17, the Wolf Creek site addendum through Revision 15, as approved in the SER through Supplement 5, Amendment No. 189, Amendment No. 191, Amendment No. 193, Amendment No. 205, Amendment No.
214, and Amendment No. XXX, subject to provisions band c below.
The proposed change reflects the approved fire protection program based on the issuance of the license amendment approving the proposed change. The amendment number will be reflected in the license condition upon the issuance of the amendment.
The proposed changes would revise USAR Table 9.5E-1 (Sheet 19} and Sections 9.5.3.1.2, 9.5.3.2.3, and 9.5.3.3. The specific changes to the USAR are shown in Attachment Ill.
The WCGS Fire Protection Program is described in USAR Section 9.5.1 and Appendices 9.5A through 9.5E. Historically, Appendix 9.58 provided the Fire Hazards Analysis. The Fire Hazard Analysis is now located in document E-1 F9905. Appendix 9.58 of the USAR incorporates by reference the following documents:
E-1 F9905, "Fire Hazard Analysis" E-1 F9900, "Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Manual Actions"
Attachment I to ET 22-001 O Page 3 of 9 E-1F9910, "Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Fire Area Analysis" E-1 F9915, "Design Basis Document for OFN RP-017, Control Room Evacuation" XX-E-013, "Post-Fire Safe Shutdown (PFSSD) Analysis" M-663-00017 A, "Fire Protection Evaluations for Unique or Unbounded Fire Barrier Configurations" USAR Appendix 9.5E provides a design comparison to 1 O CFR 50 Appendix R and how WCGS compares with the specific requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix R. Specifically, Section 111.J of 10 CFR 50 Appendix R states the following: "Emergency lighting units with at least an 8-hour battery power supply shall be provided in all areas needed for operation of safe shutdown equipment and in access and egress routes thereto." WCGS's response to the requirement was:
"The Power block Complies. As stated in Section 9.5.3.2.3, emergency lighting units with eight-hour batteries are located in all plant areas required for operation of safe shutdown equipment and also those areas necessary for access and egress. The ESW pumphouse also complies."
Historically, Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC) has credited fixed emergency lighting with 8-hour battery capacity as the means for illuminating safe shutdown equipment and access and egress paths to the safe shutdown equipment. This was driven by the USAR Appendix 9.5E comparison response to 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Section 111.J discussed above.
WCNOC continues to maintain a deterministic fire protection license basis, with no plan to transition the fire protection program to a National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 805, "Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants," (Reference 1) risk informed license basis.
However, WCNOC desires to utilize the flexibility from NFPA 805 to provide adequate lighting for illuminating safe shutdown equipment, as NFPA 805 does not define the type of emergency lighting required. Specifically, WCNOC seeks to utilize portable lighting, with limited exception, as the primary emergency lighting means for the illumination of implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access and egress routes to the equipment in support of post-fire safe shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power. The NFPA 805 deterministic evaluation approach utilized for the portable emergency lighting strategy is comparable to that conducted within the evaluation contained in Enclosure I. The relevant sections from NFPA 805 from which this request stems are provided below:
NFPA 805 Section 1.5.3(2), Provide adequate protection, including emergency lighting, for essential personnel to perform necessary safety functions as a result of a fire event.
NFPA 805 Section B.5.2(3), The lighting should be evaluated to ensure sufficient lighting is available to perform the intended action.
With limited exception, portable lighting will be the primary illumination means for implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access egress routes to the equipment in support of post-fire shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power. This encompasses the following WCGS procedure scope:
OFN RP-017, "Control Room Evacuation" OFN KC-016, "Fire Response" EMG C-0, "Loss of All AC Power"
Attachment I to ET 22-0010 Page 4 of 9 OFN NB-034, "Loss of All AC Power - Shutdown Conditions" With the integration of portable lighting into the emergency lighting strategy, the following diverse approach will be utilized:
8-hour fixed battery units for the locations that may require long term attendance in support of safe shutdown. These locations are identified in Enclosure 1, Table E.2.5-1 of WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1.
Portable (hard hat mounted) lighting for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the access and egress routes to the equipment. This will be the primary emergency lighting method for most locations.
1.5 hour5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> fixed battery _units for firefighting activities, life safety access and egress, and supplementary lighting to portable lighting.
WCNOC requests approval pursuant to License Condition 2.C(5) to deviate from the 10 CFR 50 Appendix R comparison response referenced in USAR Appendix 9.5E, allowing the use of portable lighting as the primary emergency lighting means (with limited exceptions) for illuminating safe shutdown equipment and access and egress routes to the equipment. The applicable changes to License Condition 2.C(5) and the USAR (i.e., markup of proposed changes) are contained in Attachment II and Ill respectively.
- 3.
TECHNICAL EVALUATION As discussed in Section 2 above, document E-1 F9900, "Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Manual Actions," is incorporated by reference into USAR Appendix 9.5B. Attachment E to document E-1 F9900 was developed to provide the technical bases for crediting portable lighting as the primary means for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment and access and egress routes to the equipment. This evaluation is captured in interim document number WIP-E-1 F9900-010-A-1 and is provided in Enclosure I. The proposed USAR changes supporting the document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 evaluation are provided in Attachment Ill. Major elements of the evaluation are as follows:
Fixed emergency lighting that will continue to be credited for an 8-hour illumination duration.
Portable lighting selected and the requirements for an equivalent replacement.
Portable lighting illumination test results, including a comparison to 8-hour fixed emergency lighting.
Strategy for ensuring portable lighting functionality for on shift personnel with operator manual action (OMA) responsibility.
Strategic placement and inventory of spare portable lighting equipment.
Defense-In-Depth review.
Feasibility and Reliability analysis.
Attachment I to ET 22-0010 Page 5 of 9 The document WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1 evaluation concluded that considering the superior illumination levels provided by the portable lighting in comparison to the fixed emergency lighting, the procedure implementation duration for OMAs, the battery life of the portable lighting, the strategy for ensuring battery charge level at the beginning of a shift, and the strategic location of spare portable lighting equipment in the plant, adequate illumination will be provided by the portable lighting for the performance of OMAs in support of safe shutdown from either a fire or an event resulting in the loss of all AC power. The portable lighting evaluation described in document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 is acceptable as the primary emergency lighting methodology for a diverse emergency lighting strategy that includes the following:
3.1 8-hour fixed battery units for the locations that may require long term attendance in support of safe shutdown Portable (hard hat mounted) lighting for illuminating safe shutdown implementing procedures, equipment, and the access and egress routes to the equipment.
1.5-hour fixed battery units for firefighting activities, life safety access and egress, and supplementary lighting to portable lighting.
Public Meeting Considerations A public teleconference meeting was held with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on January 10th, 2022 to discuss the portable lighting License Amendment Request (LAR) submittal.
The summary of the teleconference is documented in NRC Accession No. ML22011A086. During the teleconference the NRC staff provided comments that should be considered in the LAR development. The NRC comments documented are identified below, followed by the WCNOC response.
Comment#1 Discussion of the feasibility and reliability analysis consistent with guidance in NUREG-1852, "Demonstrating the Feasibility and Reliability of Operator Manual Actions in Response to Fire."
Response
Section E.10 of document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 addresses the feasibility and reliability of operator manual actions considering the use of portable lighting as a primary means for emergency lighting. The change has no adverse impact on the feasibility and reliability of operator manual actions.
Comment#2 Non-applicability of National Fire Protection Association's Standard 805 (NFPA 805) as a precedent because NFPA 805 does not have requirements for emergency lighting, and the feasibility criteria are up to the licensees.
Attachment I to ET 22-0010 Page 6 of 9
Response
Section E.3 and E.4.6 of document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 discusses NFPA 805 relevance. The 2001 edition of NFPA 805 does require evaluation that sufficient lighting is available to perform the intended action. WCNOC continues to maintain a deterministic fire protection license basis, with no plan to transition the fire protection program to a NFPA 805 risk informed license basis.
However, WCNOC does desire to apply the flexibility allowed by NFPA 805 regarding emergency lighting for OMAs. In multiple instances, NFPA 805 plants have successfully evaluated the use of portable lighting as the primary emergency lighting means for the illumination of OMAs. The NFPA 805 evaluation approach utilized for the portable emergency lighting strategy is comparable to that conducted within the document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 evaluation.
Comment#3 Screening out of non-applicable precedent exemptions, such as those related to the general yard areas.
Response
Section E.13 of document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 identifies the instances where the NRC has approved previous requests for alternative emergency lighting approaches (flashlights) in lieu of direct compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix R Section 111.J. The precedent table in document WIP-E-1 F9900-01 0-A-1 does not include exemptions that are exclusive approval of portable lighting for transiting through outside yard areas.
Comment#4 Discussion of dedication process for headlamps for the proposed application.
Response
Section E.6 of document WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1 identifies the commercially available portable light selected, including the testing and standard that the equipment is subjected to.
Comment#S Discussion of batteries and chargers for headlamps.
Response
Section E.6 of document WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1 discusses the rechargeable battery specifications, and that battery charging will be conducted via a multi-battery charger located in the Work Control Center area across from the Control Room.

REGULATORY EVALUATION 4.1 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria 10 CFR 50, Section 48, Fire protection, which states in paragraph (a) that "Each holder of an operating license issued under this part or a combined license issued under part 52 of this chapter must have a fire protection plan that satisfies Criterion 3 of appendix A to this part." Paragraph (b) states, "Appendix R to this part establishes fire protection features required to satisfy Criterion 3 of appendix A to this part with respect to certain generic issues for nuclear power plants licensed to operate before January 1, 1979."
10 CFR 50, Appendix A, Criterion 3-Fire protection. Structures, systems, and components important to safety shall be designed and located to minimize, consistent with other safety requirements, the probability and effect of fires and explosions.
Noncombustible and heat resistant materials shall be used wherever practical throughout the unit, particularly in locations such as the containment and control room. Fire detection and fighting systems of appropriate capacity and capability shall be provided and designed to minimize the adverse effects of fires on structures, systems, and components important to safety. Firefighting systems shall be designed to assure that their rupture or inadvertent operation does not significantly impair the safety capability of these structures, systems, and components.
10 CFR 50, Appendix R, "Fire Protection Program for Nuclear Power Facilities Operating Prior to January 1, 1979," Section 111.J, Emergency lighting. "Emergency lighting units with at least an 8-hour battery power supply shall be provided in all areas needed for operation of safe shutdown equipment and in access and egress routes thereto."
Since WCGS was licensed after January 1, 1979, WCGS is not obligated to meet the requirements of Section 111.J. However, USAR Appendix 9.5E provides a comparison of the WCGS design to Appendix R. The use of portable lighting in lieu of fixed 8-hour emergency lighting proposed in this amendment request has not previously been reviewed by the NRC for WCGS.
4.2 Significant Hazards Consideration The proposed amendment request is requesting Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval, pursuant to License Condition 2.C(5), to make changes to the approved fire protection program as described in the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS) Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR).
The proposed amendment credits the use of portable lighting in certain applications as the primary emergency lighting means for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access and egress routes to the equipment in support of post-fire safe shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power. The proposed amendment would replace the requirement of meeting the 8-hour fixed emergency lighting requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Section 111.J referenced in Appendix 9.5E, "10 CFR Part 50 Appendix R Comparison," of the USAR.
Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC) has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of amendment," as discussed below:
Attachment I to ET 22-0010 Page 8 of 9
- 1. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The design function of structures, systems and components (SSCs) are not impacted by the proposed change. The proposed change involves the use of portable lighting in supporting the performance of operator manual actions to achieve and maintain safe shutdown in support of post-fire safe shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power. The proposed change does not alter or prevent the ability of SSCs from performing their intended function to mitigate the consequences of an initiating event within the assumed acceptance limits.
Equipment required to mitigate an accident remains capable of performing the assumed function.
An evaluation determined that the post-fire operator manual actions for a fire outside the Control Room continue to remain feasible and reliable demonstrating that the plant can be safely shutdown in the event of a fire. Additionally, the performance of the operator manual actions in support of applicable procedures will not be adversely affected by the use of portable lighting as the primary emergency lighting means. There are no significant consequences resulting from the performance of the proposed change.
Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
- 2. Does the proposed amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?
Response: No.
The proposed change will not alter the requirements or function for systems required during accident conditions. The design function of structures, systems and components are not impacted by the proposed change. The proposed change involves crediting an alternative emergency lighting source for operator manual actions in support of safe shutdown. The use of an alternative emergency lighting source does not involve new failure mechanisms or malfunctions that can initiate a new accident.
Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
- 3. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?
Response: No.
There will be no effect on the manner in which safety limits or limiting safety system settings are determined nor will there be any effect on those plant systems necessary to assure the accomplishment of protection functions. The proposed change provides an alternative approach to fixed emergency lighting for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access and egress routes to the equipment in support of post-fire safe shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC
Attachment I to ET 22-0010 Page 9 of 9 power. An evaluation determined that the proposed portable lighting coupled with the strategy for ensuring portable lighting battery life will result in illumination levels commensurate with that provided by fixed emergency lighting.
Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
4.3 Conclusions In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (i) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (ii) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (iii) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
- 5.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION WCNOC has determined that the proposed amendment would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 1 O CFR 20, "Standards for protection against radiation," or would change an inspection or surveillance requirement. However, the proposed amendment does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or a significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in paragraph (c)(9) of 10 CFR 51.22, "Criterion of categorical exclusion, identification of licensing and regulatory actions eligible for categorical exclusion or otherwise not requiring an environmental review." Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

Portable lighting, via a hard hat mounted headlamp worn by Operations personnel designated for operator manual action response, is credited as the primary emergency lighting means for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access egress routes to the equipment in support of post-fire safe shutdown or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power.
Spare portable lighting and batteries are strategically located in the plant to ensure adequate reserve illumination capability for the portable lighting.
Refer to E-1F9900 for the technical basis supporting the use of portable lighting as the primary emergency lighting means for operator manual actions.

- Shutdown Conditions Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 1.0 Purpose Page 3 ef98 1.1 The purpose of this document is to evaluate the feasibility and reliability of operator manual actions (OMA) that are potentially necessary to ensure the availability of a post-fire safe shutdown (PFSSD) success path to achieve and maintain hot standby conditions, in response to a single fire event outside the Control Room.
1.2 The OMAs, which are for 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Section 111.G.2, fire areas, are evaluated for feasibility and reliability utilizing the guidance provided in NUREG-1852.
1.3 This document also evaluates the emergency lighting strategy used by the Station for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access egress routes to the equipment in support of PFSSD or a non-fire event resulting in the loss of all AC power.
2.0 Scope 2.1 This feasibility and reliability review is applicable to OMAs, as defined in Section 4.12. Attachment A summarizes the OMAs, and the fire areas affected.
2.2 Consistent with the scope of NUREG-1852, actions taken within the Control Room that are potentially necessary to mitigate or prevent the undesirable affects of fire induced spurious equipment operation are not addressed within this review for feasibility and reliability. Control Room Actions are identified in E-1F9910,
, and procedural guidance is provided in OFN KC-
- 016, 2.3 Fire areas that do not require a mitigating action to ensure preservation of a PFSSD success path, are not addressed within this review. Refer to E-1F9910 for the detailed PFSSD analysis for each fire area.
2.4 Actions required for transition to cold shutdown are not included. Hot standby is a safe, stable condition for the plant. Consistent with 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Section 111.G.1.b, cold shutdown repairs are required to be completed within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.
However, cold shutdown is not required to be achieved within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.

Portable Equipment The portable equipment needed to successfully implement the OMA was identified and reviewed for availability and dedication to PFSSD, where appropriate.
In addition to the radio discussed above, the on shift operator responsible for OFN KC-016 OMAs is required to carry on their person the following portable equipment:
Hand tool for cutting wire tab type locking devices on components that potentially would be required to be manipulated.
Master key to unlock electronic card reader controlled doors, in the event electronic door function is affected by the fire.
Portable light to aid access/egress in the event normal lighting is affected by the fire.
Key for ABFHC0002 and ABFHC0003 enclosure housings.
Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE)
The personnel protective equipment required to support the performance of the OMA is identified and assessed for availability. Hard hat, safety glasses, hearing protection, and gloves are not included in this review since this is the standard PPE complement, imposed by the WCNOC Safety Manual, for entry into industrial portions of the plant.
Procedures and Training Each OMA was reviewed to ensure it is included within OFN KC-016,
. This procedure contains the actions potentially necessary to ensure availability of a PFSSD success path following a single fire event outside the Control Room. The Operations department owns this procedure. Training for the procedure is on a biennial cycle. The procedure is also exercised during fire brigade drill activities that involve postulated fires affecting PFSSD success path. The procedure identifies the following information, per fire area with a potential OMA, to ensure Control Room personnel are aware of the potential fire impact on safe shutdown.
Equipment susceptible to fire induced spurious operation that could affect PFSSD success path.
OMAs that are required to achieve PFSSD hot standby.
OMA to mitigate spurious equipment operation.

The OMA Timeline for Fire Area A-16 reveals that a one hundred thirty six (136) minute time margin remains. Application of the uncertainty time provides reasonable assurance that the OMAs are dependable, reliable, and can be performed with a high rate of success.
8.1.6 Environmental Factors Habitable environmental conditions will be present for performance of the OMAs. The postulated fire event is within the general corridor area of the Auxiliary Building 2026' elevation. The location of the OMAs is within the Main Steam Enclosure on the 2037'-7" elevation of the Auxiliary Building (Fire Area A-23). Based on fire barrier separation, the fire will be confined to Fire Area A-16. Access to Fire Area A-23 does not require transition through Fire Area A-16. The travel path and location of the equipment requiring manipulation are physically separated from the fire by rated fire barriers. The smoke propagation review documented in Section 5.1.6 determined that the described OMA implementation would not be impeded by smoke migration from the fire event.
Hard hat mounted portable lighting, evaluated in Attachment E, is the primary emergency lighting means for illumination of potential egress paths, the component requiring OMA manipulation, and emergency equipment cabinet necessitating access for retrieval of personal protective equipment. Existing fixed emergency lighting provides 1.5 hour5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> supplemental lighting to the portable lighting. Normal radiation conditions within the areas of concern will not be adversely affected by the fire and subsequent spurious equipment operation.

Normal radiation, temperature, and humidity conditions within the OMA area will not be adversely affected by the fire and subsequent spurious equipment operation.
There are no physical impediments in proximity to the manual action component that would significantly delay or prevent required manipulation. No special equipment, related to environmental condition, is necessary for performance of the OMA.
Equipment Functionality and Accessibility No equipment support functions are required for successful manual action implementation. The OMA component is physically separated from the fire event by several fire-rated barriers. This ensures that the fire and its effects do not adversely affect the credited equipment.
The operator responsible for OFN KC-016 OMAs carries a master key that can be used to open electronically controlled doors in the event that the fire has negatively affected the normal card key access means. All electronically controlled doors are provided with this secondary access arrangement. This ensures that the postulated fire will not prevent egress through doors provided with electronic access control.
8.2.8 Available Indications Point addressable smoke detection is provided for Cable Chase 3419.
Upon detector activation, main fire alarm panel KC-008, located in the Control Room, will annunciate a fire alarm condition with a descriptive location of the detector in alarm. This will likely be the first indication of a fire event within the cable chase.
To diagnose spurious operation of containment spray, the pump breaker status indication, containment spray flow indication, containment pressure indication, or RWST level indication needs to be available. The following instrumentation is unaffected by the fire and is available to assist Control Room diagnosis of spurious containment spray actuation:
RWST level indicators BNLI0931 and BNLl933.
Containment pressure indicators GNPI0934 and GNPI0936.
8.2.9 Communications A fire in this area could affect the Gaitronics and 900 MHz radio systems.
The OMA does not require constant communication with the Control Room. As previously discussed, the operator assigned OFN KC-016 OMA duty will report to the Control Room for instruction following fire brigade callout. This approach allows the Control Room operators to provide face-to-face direction for the OMA. Once the OMA has been

The postulated fire event is within Lower Cable Spreading Room on the 2032' elevation of the Control Building. The location of the OMA for isolating KA V0201 is in an adjacent structure on the 2000' elevation of the Auxiliary Building, within the south Pipe Penetration Room. The location of the OMA for stopping PEN01A containment spray is located on the 2000' elevation of the Control Building, within the north ESF Switchgear Room.
Based on fire barrier separation, the fire will be confined to Fire Area C-21. The travel path and location of the equipment requiring manipulation are physically separated from the fire by rated fire barriers.
The smoke propagation review documented in Section 5.1.6 determined that the described OMA implementation would not be impeded by smoke migration from the fire event.

8.7.8 Available Indications Point addressable smoke detection is provided for Cable Chase 3617.
Upon detector activation, main fire alarm panel KC-008, located in the Control Room, will annunciate a fire alarm condition with a descriptive location of the detector in alarm. This will likely be the first indication of a fire event within the cable chase.
To diagnose spurious operation of containment spray, the pump breaker status indication, containment spray flow indication, containment pressure indication, or RWST level indication needs to be available. The following instrumentation is unaffected by the fire and is available to assist Control Room diagnosis of spurious containment spray actuation:
RWST level indicators BNLI0930 and BNLI0932.
Containment pressure indicators GNPI0935 and GNPI0937.
8.7.9 Communications A fire in this area could affect the Gaitronics system. The 900 MHz radio communication system is unaffected by the fire. The OMA does not require constant communication with the Control Room. After initially reporting to the Control Room, the operator will receive face-to-face

The OMA Timeline for Fire Area C-33 reveals that a thirty four (34) minute time margin remains. Application of the uncertainty time provides reasonable assurance that the OMA is dependable, reliable, and can be performed with a high rate of success.
8.8.6 Environmental Factors Habitable environmental conditions will be present for performance of the OMA. The postulated fire event is within Cable Chase 3804 located on the 2073'-6" elevation of the Control Building. The location of the OMA for stopping PEN01 B containment spray is on the 2000' elevation of the Control Building within the south ESF Switchgear Room.
The fire will be confined to the Fire Area C-33 Cable Chase of origin, which contains no ventilation openings. The travel path and location of the equipment requiring manipulation are physically separated from the fire by multiple fire rated barriers, ensuring that smoke propagation and fire fighting activities will not present an egress impediment.

Background
Historically, Wolf Creek has credited fixed emergency lighting with 8-hour battery capacity as the means for illuminating safe shutdown equipment and egress paths to the safe shutdown equipment. This was driven by the regulatory requirements identified in Section E.4.1 below. Wolf Creek continues to maintain a deterministic fire protection license bases, with no plan to transition the fire protection program to a NFPA 805 risk informed license bases. However, the Station does desire to apply the flexibility allowed by NFPA 805 (identified in Section E.4.6) regarding emergency lighting for OMAs. In multiple instances NFPA 805 plants have successfully evaluated the use of portable lighting as the primary emergency lighting means for the illumination of OMAs. The
Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-5 of E-56 NFPA 805 evaluation approach utilized for the portable emergency lighting strategy is comparable to that conducted within this evaluation.
The fixed emergency lighting historically credited for illuminating safe shutdown equipment and egress paths to the safe shutdown equipment has been Teledyne Big Beam Model S6L with Model L6100S battery, as shown in Figure E.3-1. This emergency lighting unit is maintenance intensive, particularly regarding the refillable lead acid battery. Addition of battery electrolyte is frequently required, especially in high temperature locations. This results in a high number of preventative maintenance (PM) activities in the effort to ensure unity functionality. An alternative approach for OMA emergency lighting is desired, with portable lighting being the selected resolution, as it is a relatively maintenance free option.

15 The use of light emitting diodes (LEDs) and the improvement in battery longevity for small device application has resulted in advancements in flashlight technology in recent years. This now makes portable lighting viable as a primary option within the emergency lighting strategy for the Station. The Fenix HM65R headlamp assembly is adequate compensation for the lower illumination distance provided by the LED lamp for Teledyne Big Beam emergency lighting unit application.
³Emergency lighting units with at least an 8-hour battery power supply shall be provided in all areas needed for operation of safe shutdown equipment and in access and egress routes thereto.'
Emergency lighting should be provided throughout the plant as necessary to support fire suppression actions and safe-shutdown operations, including access and egress pathways to safe-shutdown areas during a fire event.
Lighting is vital to post-fire safe shutdown and emergency response in the event of fire. The licensee should provide suitable fixed and portable emergency lighting, as follows:
- a.
Fixed, self-contained lighting consisting of units with individual 8-hour minimum battery power supplies should be provided in areas needed for operation of safe-shutdown equipment and for access and egress routes to these areas.
The level of illumination provided by emergency lighting in access routes to and in areas where shutdown functions are performed is sufficient to enable an operator to reach that area and perform the shutdown functions. At the alternative or dedicated shutdown panels, the illumination levels should be sufficient for control panel operators. If a licensee has provided emergency lighting in accordance with Section III.J of Appendix R to 10 CFR Part 50, the licensee should verify by field testing that this lighting is adequate to perform the intended tasks.
Routine maintenance and initial and periodic field testing of emergency lighting systems should ensure their ability to support access, egress, and Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 E.4 Regulatory Information Page E-6 of E-56 E.4.1 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Fire Protection Program for Nuclear Power Facilities Operating Prior to January 1, 1979.

- b.
Suitable battery-powered portable hand lights should be provided for emergency use by the fire brigade and other operations personnel required to achieve safe plant shutdown.
If a central battery or batteries power the emergency lights, the distribution system should contain protective devices necessary to preclude a fire in one area from causing a loss of emergency lighting in any unaffected area required for safe-shutdown operations.
This regulatory guide (RG) describes an approach that is acceptable to the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to meet the regulatory requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) section 50.48(a) and (b) (Ref. 1), and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix R, ³Fire Protection Program for Nuclear Power Facilities Operating Prior to January 1, 1979' (Ref.
2). These regulations state the requirements governing a civilian nuclear power generating plant¶s fire protection program (FPP).
The emergency lighting system(s) is acceptable if the integrated design of the system(s) will provide adequate emergency station lighting in all areas, required for fire fighting, control and maintenance of equipment used for implementing safe shutdown of the plant during all plant operating conditions, and the access routes to and from these areas.
The lighting systems designs will be acceptable if they conform to the lighting levels recommended in NUREG-0700, which is based on the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) Lighting Handbook as related to systems design and illumination levels recommended for industrial facilities.

OFN RP-017, EMG C-0, OFN NB-034, E.5 Updated Safety Analysis Report The Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) has been revised by change package 20283 to reflect that portable lighting is the primary credited means for illuminating safe shutdown implementing procedures, equipment, and the respective access egress routes to the equipment in the event of a loss of off-site power, a design basis event, or a fire, that renders normal lighting and standby lighting unavailable. The supporting License Amendment Request generated from the change package addresses the USAR 9.5.3.2.3 discussion that emergency lighting is also provided to support firefighting efforts.
Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests and Criteria Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 E.6 Portable Lighting Selection Page E-1 O of E-56 Operations personnel who are responsible for manipulating safe shutdown equipment are required to wear ANSI approved protective hard hats as part of their personal protective gear. The portable emergency lighting will attach to the required hard hat.
Alternatively, it can be directly attached to the head, via the elastic straps, if desired.
The portable emergency lighting equipment supplied is as follows:
Commercially available, Fenix HM65R dual LED beam headlamp, that can be attached to a standard hard hat via an adhesive headlamp attachment or elastic strap with helmet clips. Both attachment options may be used together if desired.
The headlamp can be powered by a single model 18650 rechargeable battery or two disposable CR 123 / CR 123A batteries. The 18650 rechargeable battery tested in Section E. 7 of this document was a 3500 mAh battery (Fenix model ARB-L 18-3500). Fenix is now packaging the HM65R headlamp with a 3400 mAh battery (Fenix model ARB-L 18-3400). The ARB-L 18-3400 is an acceptable alternative, as the capacity reduction is less than 3% which still provides ample margin when comparing performance to the fixed Teledyne Big Beam emergency light. Each of the rechargeable battery models is provided with an electronic circuit that protects it from over charge, over discharge, overheating, and short circuit. In the event that the electronic circuit protection fails, pressure relief vents are provided to expel waste gas generated from an internal short. Additionally, as documented in References E.15.42 and E.15.43, the rechargeable batteries conform to the testing requirements of section 38.3 from the United Nations (UN) Publication:
. Section UN 38.3 addresses testing requirements for lithium metal and lithium ion batteries that are shipped internationally. The UN required testing includes: altitude simulation, thermal, vibration, shock, external short circuit, impact/crush, overcharge, and forced discharge. The protection features described above and the independent testing confirming UN38.3 conformance, provides reasonable assurance that consequential failure for the Fenix model ARB-L 18-3400 or ARB-L 18-3500 rechargeable battery is unlikely.
See Figure E.6-1 for the headlamp attached to a standard hard hat via an adhesive headlamp attachment. Figure E.6-2 is the head lamp attached with adhesive headlamp attachment and elastic strap with helmet clips. Attachment E.1 provides the detailed product specifications for the headlamp, adhesive attachment, and rechargeable battery.
The Fenix HM65R stated performance is per ANSI/PLATO FL 1 criteria for the following:
Light Output - Total light output measured in Lumens.
Run Time - Tested with fresh batteries from 30 seconds after the light is turned on until the light output reaches 10% of the initial measurement.
Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-11 of E-56 Beam Distance - The distance, measured in meters, at which the light projects a useful amount of light, measured at 0.25 lux. (0.25 lux is approximately the equivalent of light emitted from a full moon "on a clear night in an open field.")
Peak Beam Intensity - The brightest point in the beam measured in candela.
Impact Resistance - The height, measured in meters, from which the light can be dropped onto cured concrete and still work properly. This testing is completed by dropping the product six (6) times using drop orientations that approximate each side of a cube. Dropped samples cannot have any visible cracks or breaks and the light must remain fully functional.
Water Proof - Water submersion depth rating, measured in meters. This test must be done after impact resistance testing is completed to ensure water tightness under real-life conditions.
In addition to the testing required by ANSI/PLATO FL 1, the headlamp is subject to the following test protocols to ensure reliability in extreme environments:
Shakeout Test - Evaluates the scratch and wear resistance of the light's surface.
Bending Test - Challenges the bending degree and inherent strength of internal wiring systems.
Salt Spray Test - Puts the light into corrosion provoking conditions beyond what most will ever face.
Ultraviolet Radiation Test - Monitors the light's performance after intense exposure to UV radiation.
Environmental Test - Pushes low and high temperature ranges to verify performance at extremes.
Vibration Test - Jars the light over thousands of cycles to validate resistance to rigorous forces.
Switch Test - Checks the switch function well over the projected lifespan of the light.
Temperature Test - determines heat generation and dissipation of the light.
The Fenix HM65R headlamp is not a wireless communication device, as such it does not transmit or receive radio waves. Additionally, Wolf Creek subjected the Fenix HM65R headlamp to a commercially available electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation tester (Lutron EMF-823). Contact readings with the meter sensor and headlamp were 0.00 micro Tesla for all lighting operation modes using both battery types (a rechargeable battery and two CR123 batteries). Therefore, the Fenix HM65R headlamp may be used around components that are sensitive to radio frequency and/or EMF interference.

The headlamp has the option for the following lighting configurations:
Spot Light (turbo, high, medium, and low) - best for distance lighting when traversing from one area to another.
Flood Light (high, medium, and low) - best for close range lighting such as reading a procedure or manipulating a component.
The headlamp battery level indication for the rechargeable battery is accessed by a single click of either the Spotlight or Floodlight switch with the headlamp in the off position. See Figure E.6-3 for the battery light indicator. Battery life indicator is as follows:
Four lights on: Battery is charged 81% to 100%
Three lights on: Battery is charged 61 % to 80%
Two lights on: Battery is charged 41 % to 60%

E. 7 Demonstration E.7.1 Performance Test In an effort to compare illumination levels between the fixed Teledyne Big Beam emergency lighting, the Fenix HM65R headlamp, and a portable light model (Underwater Kinetics UK4AA-AS2) approved by the NRC for a peer Nuclear Power Plant that has transitioned to NFPA 805, a lighting performance test was conducted. The test method and results are documented in Work Order 21-468651-000. Photos from the performance test are provided in Attachment E.4. A series of tests were conducted as identified in Table E. 7.1-
- 1. Relevant illumination test setup information is as follows:
Portable lighting was attached to ANSI hard that was then zip tied to a step ladder to ensure stability when obtaining illumination level readings.
The Fenix HM65R headlamp was placed in the High Spotlight mode when discharging batteries for the specified duration.
Each component light test was in line to the target representing a component in the plant (see Attachment E.4, Photo E.4.A-1).
Target illumination levels for 8 and 16 hour1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> discharge testing was collected at 5 and 10 ft. distances only.
Each component light test was conducted a specified distance from the target.
Aiming for portable lighting and the Teledyne Big Beam unit was adjusted to provide optimum target illumination at each tested distance.
Only one beam from the Teledyne Big Beam unit was aimed directly at the target, consistent with plant aiming configurations. The remaining beam was configured so that it would not contribute significant illumination to the target.
The bottom of the Teledyne Big Beam unit was located 7'-1", from the floor, comparable to the in-plant configuration.
The Teledyne Big Beam unit was connected to AC power, with a fully charged battery, until the 8-hour illumination test was conducted.
Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-15 of E-56 The Teledyne Big Beam unit was illuminated by pressing the test switch with AC power connected. The unit illuminated automatically with AC power removed.
Discharge testing for the Teledyne Big Beam unit was conducted at 8-hours only, consistent with 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, Section 111.J.
Photos of component illuminating tests were taken from a tripod at similar locations and the same camera setting for each photo.
A light meter (reading in foot-candle) was attached to the target.
The model LX-1128SD light meter (Serial No. T016275) utilized has an accuracy of+/-. 4%. The light meter readings recorded in Tables E.7.1-2 through E.7.1-8, do not account for meter accuracy. See Attachment E.2 for light meter data and calibration certificate.

Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-17 of E-56 Tables E. 7.1-2 through E. 7.1-8 provide the results of the lighting performance test for Teledyne Big Beam emergency light, a Fenix HM65R headlamp, and an Underwater Kinetics UK4AA-AS2 flashlight. The Underwater Kinetics flashlight has been approved for a peer Nuclear Plant by the NRC via a NFPA 805 license amendment request. The Underwater Kinetics UK4AA-AS2 model flashlight with hard hat clip was not selected for illuminating operator actions at Wolf Creek. The performance data was included as a comparison point for the portable lighting proposed by Wolf Creek and portable lighting that has been previously approved for a plant with a NFPA 805 licensing bases. Attachment E.3 provides the detailed product specifications for the Underwater Kinetics UK4AA-AS2 flashlight.
The illumination testing revealed the following:
The Fenix HM65R headlamp with a rechargeable battery that has been continuously discharged on High Spotlight mode for a period of 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> provides superior illumination in all lighting modes, with the exception of Low Floodlight, when compared to a fully charged Teledyne Big Beam fixed emergency lighting unit comparable to those installed at Wolf Creek.
This demonstrates that the Fenix HM65R headlamp will provide lighting levels for illuminating implementing procedures, safe shutdown equipment, and the respective access egress routes to the equipment that exceed those provided by fixed emergency lighting units.
The Teledyne Big Beam fixed emergency lighting unit maximum illumination level was 3.8 foot-candles at 5 ft. from the target with a fully charged battery.
Consistent with NUREG-0700 guidance for control room emergency illumination, the Fenix HM65R headlamp provides an illumination level greater than 10 foot-candles at a distance of 5 ft. from the target for the following configurations:
Rechargeable battery on Turbo Spotlight, High Spotlight, Medium Spotlight, or High Flood Light with a battery that has been discharged up to 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> on High Spotlight mode.
CR123 batteries on Turbo Spotlight, High Spotlight, Medium Spotlight, or High Flood Light with batteries that have been discharged up to 1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> on High Spotlight mode.
With an individual positioned directly in front of the target component, the Fenix HM65R headlamp provides significant illumination improvement of target component compared to the illumination provided by the fixed emergency light unit.
The Fenix HM65R headlamp provided substantial illumination improvement of the procedure in hand when compared to the illumination provided by the fixed emergency lighting unit.
Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-18 of E-56 The Fenix HM65R headlamp with disposable CR123 batteries did not perform as well from a runtime perspective when compared to rechargeable battery performance. This is expected since the capacity for the two series CR123 batteries is 1500 mAh compared to a 3500 mAh rating for the single rechargeable 18650 battery. Considering this, the CR123 battery will not be the primary battery source for normally daily use of the headlamps. However, due to its long storage life (approximately 10 years), CR123 / CR123A will be preferred battery for strategically staging in the plant for emergent battery replacement.
The Fenix HM65R headlamp on Turbo Spotlight mode does provide superior lighting to the other lighting modes for the headlamp but at a sacrifice of reduced runtime. Considering this, it will be recommended that Operations personnel use either High Spotlight or High Floodlight illumination modes as the preferred illumination selections in an effort to optimize runtime performance while still realizing a high illumination output from the headlamp.
When battery capacity for the Fenix HM65R headlamp does not support the selected illumination mode, the headlamp will automatically adjust to a lower illumination level that the battery can support. At its lowest performance level, the headlamp will switch to Low Floodlight mode. This transition can be used by the operator as an aid to signal that battery replacement is warranted. Additional informational testing (not documented in work order 21-468651-000) of the Fenix HM65R headlamp with a rechargeable battery revealed that the headlamp remained in the Turbo Spotlight illumination mode for over four hours. It ultimately switched to Low Floodlight mode where it continued to illuminate for more than eight hours. At Low Floodlight mode, as shown in Photo E.4.E-5, sufficient lighting is available to provide immediate travel path illumination. This provides reasonable assurance that an Operator should not be left in the dark with a significantly discharged headlamp battery.
The Fenix HM65R headlamp performance was significantly superior to the Underwater Kinetics UK4M-AS2 model flashlight in both illumination levels and battery run time.

Conduct of Operations Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 E.7.2 Operations' Assessment Page E-25 of E-56 In an effort to solicit feedback from Operations regarding their opinion of the portable lighting and its use as the primary emergency lighting method for illuminating operator manual actions, the portable lighting equipment discussed in E.6 was provided to multiple Operators for in plant use. Feedback received was positive for the Fenix HM65R headlamp assembly.
E.8 Preventive Maintenance Activities E.8.1 The Fenix HM65R headlamp assembly will be standard issue to all on shift Operations personnel responsible for manipulating plant equipment. It will be attached to their hard hat and used in situations where plant activities require additional illumination to safely perform their job function. Each Operator will be responsible for proper operation and upkeep of the headlamp, including battery charge status and battery replacement. Information regarding headlamp responsibilities and upkeep will be provided in a Standing Order, Desktop Instruction, or equivalent. There will be no formal PM for the individual headlamps issued to Operations personnel.
E.8.2 AP 21-001, Attachment H, Start of Shift Crew Briefing This Attachment is utilized by the Control Room Supervisor (CRS) to ensure a consistent crew briefing at the beginning of the shift. It has been revised to include a step for the CRS to ensure that Operators assigned OFN RP-017, OFN KC-016, EMG C-0, and/or OFN NB-034 manual action responsibility to confirm acceptable function of their headlamp and that it is indicating a charged condition (four battery level indication lights on) at the beginning of the shift. Typically, rechargeable batteries will be utilized during daily operation considering their increased run time, and to limit the amount of waste associated with the use of disposable batteries.
Emergency Equipment Verification Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 E.8.3 Spare Portable Lights and Batteries Page E-26 of E-56 Sufficient replacement batteries and spare portable headlamps are strategically located in the plant, and periodically inventoried, to ensure that a minimum eight hours of portable lighting is available for Operations staff personnel responsible for the manipulation of safe shutdown equipment. Specifically, the following emergency equipment lockers in the plant are equipped with at least three (3)
Fenix HM65R headlamps and at least six (6) sets of CR123 / CR123A batteries (12 total batteries). The equipment in the lockers is inspected and inventoried in accordance with STN GP-009, Auxiliary Building 2026' - Aux Shutdown Panel Locker Auxiliary Building 2026' - South Electrical Penetration Room Locker Control Building 2000' - 'B' ESF Switchgear Room Locker Turbine Building 2033' Locker Additional Fenix HM65R headlamps, rechargeable batteries, charging station, and CR 123 / CR 123A batteries are located in the Work Control Center area across from the Control Room.
E.9 Defense-In-Depth E.9.1 8-Hour Fixed Emergency Lights That Remain in Safe Shutdown Strategy As identified in Section E.2.5, fixed emergency lighting units with 8-hour battery capacity for the Control Room, Auxiliary Shutdown Panel, and emergency diesel generator control panel areas will continue to be credited in the emergency lighting illumination response strategy for safe shutdown. This is in recognition that these areas may warrant continuous manning in response to potential postulated events, such as fire or loss of offsite power. It is prudent to retain the current emergency lighting strategy for these areas in an effort to promote human factoring, since there are many indications and controls in these areas that require Operator attention. Additionally, the emergency lighting unit illuminating the Operation's hard hat rack just outside the Control Room will be credited as an 8-hour emergency light to ensure illuminated access/egress for Control Room personal to obtain their hard hats, containing the Fenix HM65R headlamp.
Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 E.9.2 Fixed Emergency Lights That Are Being Downgraded Page E-27 of E-56 With limited exception, the fixed emergency lighting (excluding Table E.2.5-1) that was previously credited for illuminating operator manual actions will remain installed within the plant. The E-1 L8900 identified head lamp aiming positions will be retained. However, this fixed emergency lighting, which will be treated comparable to life safety emergency lighting from a battery life (1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />) and preventive maintenance perspective, is considered supplemental to portable lighting. This lighting and the remaining 1.5-hour fixed emergency lighting will support firefighting efforts and life safety access/aggress.
E.9.3 OFN RP-017, Control Room Evacuation This procedure provides the Operator actions for evacuating the Control Room due to fire. OFN RP-017 contains steps for each Operator implementing the procedure to obtain a spare set of CR 123 / CR 123A batteries strategically located in field emergency lockers discussed in Section E.8.3 of this Attachment. A step has also been included at the completion of OFN RP-017 Attachment D for the Operator performing the Auxiliary Building actions to obtain spare Fenix HM65R headlamps and CR123 / CR123A batteries as necessary from the available locations discussed in Section E.8.3 to distribute to the Operations team. This will allow future refresh of portable lighting if necessary.
E.9.4 Photoluminescent Labels All OMAs outside the Control Room that are required for PFSSD are provided with a photoluminescent label as shown in Figures E.9.4-1 and E.9.4-2. The purpose of the labels is to improve the identification and response time for locating PFSSD equipment/components during potential plant fire scenarios when normal lighting has failed. Change package 012523 approved the use of the labels for identification of PFSSD components. The change package also conducted performance testing of the labels to assess their illumination capability. The change package concluded that the labels will be an aid to Operators in locating PFSSD equipment, especially in a low light situation.
An action that is analyzed and demonstrated as being able to be performed within an available time so as to avoid a defined undesirable outcome. As compared to a reliable action (see definition), an action is considered feasible if it is shown that it is possible to be performed within the available time (considering relevant uncertainties in estimating the time available); but it does not necessarily demonstrate that the action is reliable. For instance, performing an action successfully one time out of three attempts within the available time shows that the action is feasible, but not necessarily reliable.
A feasible action that is analyzed and demonstrated as being dependably repeatable within an available time, so as to avoid a defined adverse consequence, while considering varying conditions that could affect the available time and/or the time to perform the action. As compared to an action that is only feasible (see definition), an action is considered to be reliable as well if it is shown that it can be dependably and repeatably performed within the available time, by different crews, under somewhat varying Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 OF -017 U L ACTI L H -7 FP07O 2

E.10.1 Operator Manual Actions in Response to Fire NUREG-1852 defines feasible action as:
NREG-1852 defines reliable action as:
conditions that typify uncertainties in the available time and the time to perform the action, with a high success rate. All reliable actions need to be feasible, but not all feasible actions will be reliable.
Fire Response Control Room Evacuation Timed Fire Protection Actions Validation Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-29 of E-56 Lighting is an environmental factor that could negatively impact the ability to perform operator actions, as such it needs be considered when assessing the acceptability of manual actions.
E-1 F9900 (approved via License Amendment 191) documents the feasibility and reliability of operator manual actions, considering NUREG-1852, for a fire outside the Control Room. The evaluation identifies six distinct operator actions. These actions are implemented by OFN KC-016,
. Fire Area A-16 has the longest, bounding manual action timeline. Considering time allotments for fire indicated, diagnosis, performance of manual action, and uncertainty, the analyzed timeline for OMA performance is 67 minutes with 27 minutes required for the actual field performance of the operator actions. Applying the full OMA assigned uncertainty time of 26 minutes results in 53 minutes that emergency lighting would be required to illuminate the egress path, procedure, and safe shutdown equipment.
E-1 F9915 (approved via License Amendment 214) documents the step by step analysis of operator manual actions, considering 10 CFR 50 Appendix R, for a Control Room fire. This analysis provides the timing bases demonstrating that the PFSSD functions (Reactivity Control, Reactor Coolant Makeup and Inventory Control, Decay Heat Removal, Process Monitoring and Support) are satisfied prior to reaching unrecoverable conditions. These steps are implemented by OFN RP-
- 017,
. The procedure is divided into attachments with different Operator's having the responsibility of completing their assigned attachment. The Attachments supporting post-fire safe shutdown are coordinated during implementation. Required action time limits are 67 minutes or less, with the exception of isolating the RWST to the safety injection test header, which has a 71 hour8.217593e-4 days <br />0.0197 hours <br />1.173942e-4 weeks <br />2.70155e-5 months <br /> time limit.
Periodic performance timing of the manual actions required to achieve and maintain PFSSD per OFN KC-016 and OFN RP-017 is performed by Operations personnel in accordance with Al 21-017, This timing validation by multiple personnel demonstrates overall manual action feasibility and reliability from a performance perspective. The portable lighting supports acceptable feasibility based on the following:
The illumination tests document in Section E. 7 reflect that the Fenix HM65R headlamp provides superior lighting, when compared to Teledyne Big Beam, for illumination of procedure, safe shutdown equipment, and egress pathways.
Performance demonstrations per Al 21-017 reflect that the manual actions supporting OFN KC-016 or OFN RP-017 implementation are accomplished
Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 Page E-30 of E-56 in under an hour which is well within the battery capacity of the portable lighting.
The photoluminescent component labels discussed in Section E.9.4 aid in Operator identification of post-fire safe shutdown equipment. This minimizes time required to locate equipment for manipulation.
There are no other environmental factors (radiation, temperature, humidity, smoke, toxic gas, or noise) that negatively impact the ability to perform operator manual actions at Wolf Creek, as Operators will not have to traverse through the event area to perform OMAs. Additionally, the Fenix HM65R headlamp is IP68 rated (dust-proof and waterproof - fully submersible to 6.5 feet for 30 minutes) per ANSI/I EC 60529. This ensures protection of the headlamp during normal daily use.
Reliability of the emergency portable lighting is ensured by the periodic maintenance activities discussed in Section E.8 coupled with the spare portable lighting and batteries available at multiple emergency equipment locker locations.
This ensures that sufficient portable lighting will be available for more than 8-hours following the onset of a fire event that renders normal lighting and standby lighting unavailable.
E.10.2 Operator Manual Actions in Response to a Non-Fire Event The previously discussed Fenix HM65R headlamp being used for OMAs in response to fire conditions is also adequate as the primary emergency lighting option for non-fire event conditions warranting Operator action outside the Control Room.
E.11 Future Evaluation of Equivalent Portable Lighting It is recognized that obsolescence challenges and future advancements in portable lighting and batteries may result in a desire to utilize equivalent replacement portable lighting and/or batteries in lieu of the models discussed in this Attachment. The portable lighting and batteries identified in this Attachment are considered tools. Typically, a tool is not controlled by design configuration. However, considering the importance of this portable lighting in the support of safe shutdown, a hybrid approach will be used to control the use of equivalent replacement portable lighting models and batteries. The evaluation of equivalent replacement portable lighting and batteries may be conducted without revision to this Attachment provided the review is documented in a work order (or equivalent) and addresses the following attributes:

E.12 Maintenance Rule Application As previously identified, the fixed emergency lighting identified in Table E.2.5-1, will continue to be credited for illumination of safe shutdown operator actions. Considering this, these emergency lighting units will also continue to be scoped within the 10 CFR 50.65 Maintenance Rule Program implemented by Wolf Creek per procedure AP 23M-001. The fixed emergency lighting that is being downgraded will no longer be scoped within the Maintenance Rule, as it is no longer relied upon to mitigate an accident or transient described in the USAR, nor is it used in the emergency response procedures to provide accident mitigation. The portable lighting credited as the primary emergency lighting means for illuminating safe shutdown operator actions will not be included in Maintenance Rule scope considering that this lighting is considered a tool and is readily replaceable, and the preventive maintenance strategy is a simplistic approach comprised of periodic inventory checks, lighting checks, and battery replacement. The Fenix HM65R headlamp is credited as the compensatory measure for Table E.2.5-1 fixed emergency lighting when it is deficient or nonfunctional.
E.13 Precedent There are plants (References E.15.37 and E.15.38 for example) who have transitioned to a NFPA 805 license bases and now credit portable lighting as the primary emergency lighting means for illuminating operator manual actions. Wolf Creek continues to maintain a deterministic fire protection license bases, with no plans to transition to NFPA 805. As discussed in E.3, the justification approach for the use of portable lighting as a primary means for illuminating safe shutdown equipment is similar for both the deterministic and risk informed fire protection license bases in that feasibility and reliability are the key elements that warrant methodical assessment. Additionally, Table E.13-1 identifies instances where the NRC has approved previous requests for alternative emergency lighting approaches (flashlights) in lieu of direct compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix R Section 111.J.

Post-Fire Safe Shutdown Operator Manual Actions Attachment E WIP-E-1F9900-010-A-1, Rev. 00 E.14 Conclusion Page E-34 of E-56 Considering the superior illumination levels provided by the Fenix HM65R headlamp in comparison to the Teledyne Big Beam emergency lighting unit, the procedure implementation duration, the battery life of the portable emergency lighting, the strategy for ensuring battery charge level at the beginning of a shift, and the strategic location of spare headlamps and disposable CR123 / CR123A batteries in the plant, adequate illumination will be provided by the Fenix HM65R headlamp for the performance of OMAs in support of safe shutdown from either a fire or an event resulting in the loss of all AC power. The portable lighting described in this evaluation is acceptable as the primary emergency lighting methodology for a diverse emergency lighting strategy that includes the following:
8-hour fixed battery units for the locations that may require long term attendance in support of safe shutdown.
Portable (hard hat mounted) lighting for illuminating safe shutdown implementing procedures, equipment, and the access egress routes to the equipment.
1.5-hour fixed battery units for firefighting activities, life safety access/egress, and supplementary lighting to portable lighting.
