During walk downs to ensure the availabiliDuring walk downs to ensure the availability of flood protection barriers, a condition was identified which had the potential to adversely impact the ability to address external flooding conditions. Several individual pathways between both unit's Turbine Building and Auxiliary Building were identified that could bypass flood barriers. In the aggregate however, the current equipment could become overwhelmed and the flooding in the Auxiliary Building could then potentially challenge equipment necessary to remove residual heat.</br>The identified pathways were for the most part unscheduled partially filled conduits. There were no isolation features on these pathways and no barriers to flooding were in place between the Turbine Building and Auxiliary Building thus the potential existed to bypass the existing flood barriers. Flooding of the Turbine Building conceivably could have resulted in the accumulation of water in sufficient quantities to fill the Turbine Building to the height of the external floodwaters which could enter the Auxiliary Building via one or more deficient flood barrier. These floodwaters would then potentially challenge equipment, located within the Auxiliary Building, which is required to remove residual heat.</br>This condition has been determined to be reportable per 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(B) and 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(ii)(B).
