Therefore, the requirements of *Technical Specification 3.7.11 Action "a", were met~

Technical Specification 3.7.11.states:

"All fire penetrati9ns (including cable penetration barriers, fire doors and fire dampers), in fire zone boundaries, protecting.

Action Statement 3.7.11.a states:

"With one (1) or more of the above required fire barrier penetrations nori-functional; within one (1) hour either establish a continuous fire watch on at least one (1) side of the affected penetration, or verify the OPERABILITY of fire detectors on at least one (1) side. of the non-functional fire barrier and es~ablish an hourly fire watch patrol. Restore the non-functional fire barrier penetration(s) to functional status within 7 days or, in lieu of any other report required by Specification* 6.9.1, prepare and submit a Special Report to the Commission pursuant to.Specification 6.9.2 within the next (30) days outlining the action taken, the cause of the non-functional penetration and plans and schedule for restoring the fire barrier penetration(s) to functional status."

APPARENT CAUSE OF OCCURRENCE:

The cause of the fire barrier penetration impairments is to support o~tage r~lated activities~

ANALYSIS OF OCCURRENCE:

The functional integrity of fire barrier penetrations ensures that

'fires will. be confined or adequately retarded from spreading to adjacent portions of the facility.* This de~ign feature minimizes the possibility of a single fire involving several areas of the facility.

The fire barrier penetration seals are a passive element in the facility fire protection program and are subject to periodic inspections.
