At approximately 1200 hours (EST) on 7/12/At approximately 1200 hours (EST) on 7/12/2010, an electrical fault was identified in the fire alarm system. This fault disabled the public address portion of the system which supports annunciation of plant alarms including the following: fire alarm, criticality alarm, take-cover alarm, (carbon dioxide) discharge alarms. Trouble shooting of the problem is continuing. There is no impact to actual detection, suppression, etc. systems. Compensatory measures include the following: stop SNM handling and movement, fire patrols, restriction of hot work, notification to facility personnel, evacuation of nonessential personnel from production areas, fire brigade on standby and radios provided to fire brigade officers and some fire brigade members.</br>It is believed that the condition was associated with heavy rainfall and possible water intrusion. </br>There were no actual safety consequences to workers, the public, or the environment associated with the event. Potential consequences to workers, the public, or the environment are mitigated by compensatory measures.</br>The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.</br>* * * UPDATE FROM RANDY SHACKELFORD TO JOHN KNOKE AT 1628 ON 7/15/10 * * *</br>The public address portion of the plant alarm system was restored on 7/13/2010. It appears that recent rain storms caused some wiring to develop short circuits. These short circuits were corrected.
