Pe~ Technical Specification Action Statement 3.7.11.a, a Special Report is required when fire barrier penetration seals are impaired for greater than seven {7) days. T~is report satisfies this requirement.
The subject fire barrier impairments were ini'tiated in support of design changes and other Salem Unit 1 outage activities. Normally, the planning of penetration impairments includes their repair within seven (7) days. However, to fully support the work identified in this report, the penetrations could not be repaired within seven (7) days.
on'March 17, 1992, two (2) fire barrier penetrations were imp~ired in support of Service Water System modifications. On April 7, 1992, ten (10) fire barrier penetrations were impaired also in support of Service Water System modifications. On April 8, 1992, five (5) fire barrier penetrations were impaired in support of Service Water System pipe replacement for the Auxiliary Building Room Coolers. These penetrations are located as follows:

APPARENT CAUSE OF OCCURRENCE:
The cause of the fire barrier penetration impairments.is to support outage related activities.
ANALYSIS OF OCCURRENCE:
The functional integrity of fire barrier penetrations ensures that fires will be confined or adequately retarded from spreading to adjacent portion~ of the facility. This design feature minimizes the possibility of a single fire involving several areas of the facility.

This report satisfies reporting requirements of Technical Specification Action Statement 3.7.11.a, pursuant to Technical Specification 6~9.2 since the time.between impairment and eventual repair of the fire barrier penetrations is greater than seven (7) days~ Appropriate remedial actions were already in place, in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification Actiori Statement 3.7.11.a, to establish an hourly roving fire watch patrol for impaired fire barriers.
The subject fire areas contain detection devices in addition to the roving fire watch patrol. Therefore, a fire in the areas should be detected before it could involve an adjacent area. This occurrence therefore involved no undue risk to the health or safety of the public.
CORRECTIVE ACTION:
The repair of the planned impaired penetrations was not accomplished within seven (7) days due to the time required to complete work. The
- penetrations will be sealed upon completion of associated work.
The hourly fire watch, as addressed in the Description of Occurrence sect~on, will continue untii all fire protection concertis associated with these areas are resolved.
