==SUBJECT:==
SUPPLEMENT TO EQUIPMENT FIRE INSIDE CONTAINMENT STRUCTURE AT DECOMMISSIONING REACTOR SITE The preliminary information concerning a smoldering fire at the Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Companys Haddam Neck Plant that was reported to NRC Region I by the licensee on April 26, 2005, had initially evaluated the fire as an Unusual Event (UE). Upon further review of the Emergency Action Levels, the licensee determined that the criteria for an UE was not met, because the fire did not involve radioactive material. The notification to the NRC Headquarter Operations Office was made in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(xi), because the fire required offsite notification and assistance.
While the official notification to NRC had indicated that there were two minor injuries, there were no injuries to personnel. As a precaution, two individuals that had attempted to put the fire out were sent to the Marlborough Clinic for evaluation of smoke inhalation.
The licensee notified the State of Connecticut of the revised information.
The Region I Office of Public Affairs is prepared to respond to media inquires.
This information is current as of 3:00 p.m., April 27, 2005.
