1245 App D3 INTRODUCTION Completion of Appendix C7, Fire Protection Inspector Technical Proficiency Training and Qualification Journal, of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 1245, Qualification Program for Reactor Inspectors, is strongly recommended before beginning activities or courses in this advanced-level training. You may complete the general proficiency requirements contained in Appendix B, General Proficiency-Level Training and Qualification Journal, and the technical proficiency requirements in IMC 1245 Appendix C7 together with requirements in this training standard. The courses and the OJT activities listed in this standard are voluntary and are not required for certification as a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) fire protection inspector.
OBJECTIVES OF ADVANCED-LEVEL TRAINING The objective of this training standard is to provide advanced-level training in fire protection and to assist inspectors in preparing to evaluate reactor facilities that have transitioned to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 805, "Performance Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants," 2001 Edition REQUIRED TRAINING COURSES The first five courses listed below give instruction and training in the inspection of plants that have transitioned to NFPA 805. The remaining courses give additional training in classical fire protection.
- 1. NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Research Online Training Modules: Available at ADAMs Package Accession No. ML22052A004 (non-public).
Module 1, Fire PRA Module 2, Electrical Analysis Module 3, Fire Analysis Module 4, Fire Human Reliability Analysis Module 5, Advanced Fire Modeling
The references, the handbook, slides, sample amendment, and safety evaluation and other references are included in ML17116A249
- 3. SAPHIRE Basics (P-201).
- 4. System Modeling Techniques for PRA (P-200)
- 5. Human Reliability Assessment (HRA) Course (P-203)
- 7. NFPA Installation of Sprinkler Systems Seminar (NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems.)
Issue Date: 04/11/23 2

1245 App D3 Fire Protection Inspector On-the-Job Training (OJT) Activity
Issue Date: 04/11/23 4
1245 App D3 (OJT-FP-1) Fire Protection Inspection PURPOSE:
The purpose of this activity is to acquaint you with the fire protection inspection process by having you participate in an inspection of an operating reactor facility that has transitioned to NFPA 805, Performance Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants COMPETENCY AREAS: TECHNICAL AREA EXPERTISE LEVEL OF EFFORT:
40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> EVALUATION CRITERIA:
At the completion of this activity, you should understand the regional fire protection inspection process for a plant that has transitioned to NFPA 805.
- 1. Explain the objectives of the fire protection team inspection (FPTI) for a plant that has transitioned to NFPA 805.
- 2. Explain the difference between the FPTI for a plant that has transitioned to NFPA 805 and one that has not transitioned.
- 3. Explain the regulatory requirements and licensing basis against which post-fire safe-shutdown capability is assessed.
TASKS:
The activities listed below shall be performed under the guidance of a subject matter expert.
- 1. Accompany a team of regional inspectors during a fire protection inspection at a plant that has transitioned to NFPA 805.
- 2. Discuss the evaluation criteria with a subject matter expert.
- 3. Before the inspection, review any documents the team leader deems necessary.
- 4. Participate with the inspection team leader and the regional senior risk analyst in the selection process of the inspection samples (determine which SSCs, programs, and fire areas or zones are to be inspected in this inspection).
- 5. Review NFPA 805, 2001 Edition.
- 6. Complete any other task given by the inspection team leader.
