Section C.5.a of BTP CMEB 9.5-l states that flexible air duct coupling in ventilation and filter systems should be noncombustible. In Revision 3 to the comparison with BTP CMEB 9.5-1, the applicant informed the staff that combustible flexible air duct coupling is utilized in ventilation and filter systems at Harris. The applicant conservatively estimated that this combustible material constitutes less than 1.5% of the total ductwork footage and that there are no large concentrations of the material in any plant area. On the basis of its limited use, the staff concludes that the combustible flexible duct couplings will not contribute appreciably to the spread of fire.

SUMMARY

Requirements of NUREG safe shutdown earthquake (SSE). Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L) 0800, Rev. , 5/7/1986 would lie to identify a deviation from BTP Plant USA-M/BMRK-0006, Exception: For existing plants that are not capable of 9.5-1, Section C.6.c (4) of NUREG-0800 from Code Compliance Evaluation meeting this requirement, provisions to restore a water having to provide manual Safe Shutdown NFPA 14-1976, Standpipe supply and distribution system for manual fire-fighting Earthquake (SSE) hose stations in three areas and Hose Stations, Rev. 001, purposes shall be made. This provisional manual of the plant identified below.

fire-fighting standpipe/hose station system shall be BACKGROUND capable of providing manual fire-fighting protection to the Section 9.5.15 of the November 1983 Harris various plant locations important to supporting and Safety Evaluation Report (SER) stated that:

maintaining the nuclear safety function. The provisions for "Based on its evaluation, the Staff finds that establishing this provisional system shall be preplanned sprinkler and standpipe systems have been and be capable of being implemented in a timely manner provided in accordance with Section C.6.( c )

following an SSE. of BTP CMEB 9.5-l and are, therefore, acceptable."

"Standpipe system piping for hose stations protecting safe shutdown equipment has been analyzed for SSE loading and is provided with seismic supports. The Staff concludes the design of the standpipe system piping, meets Section C.6.c of BTP CMEB 9:5-I and is, therefore, acceptable."

The above SER statements were based on CP&.L's Qctober 1983 response to NRC Question 280.1. However, the SER did not address the deviations identified in CP&L's response (specifically, that SSE hose stations were not provided for the diesel generator and fuel oil storage buildings). Amendment No. 20 of the Harris Final Safety Analysis Report, dated May 10,1985, identified the Emergency Service Water Intake structure as an additional area where SSE hose stations are not provided. Following recent conversations with your Staff, CP&L was requested to provide justification for not providing SSE hose stations for the below three areas.

DISCUSSION The Company requests approval of a deviation from the requirements to provide-SSE hose stations in the following plant areas:

Plant Location:

a) Diesel Generator Building b) Diesel Fuel Oil Storage Building c) Emergency Service Water Intake Structure Fire Area:

a) Diesel Generator, Diesel Generator Day Tanks, and Diesel Control Panels b) Diesel Generator Fuel Oil Transfer Pumps, Diesel Generator Storage Tanks c) Emergency Service Water Pumps and Controls The Company considers this deviation justified because:

1-the above redundant safe shutdown equipment is separated from each other by three-hour rated barriers, which are Seismic Class I structures, 2-these areas are provided with non-seismic fire protection systems, and 3-the combustible loading in these areas is considered low, except in the case of the diesel day tank and storage tank area where the enclosures are Seismic Class I or ASME Section III.

CONCLUSION Based on the fire protection provided and described above, CP&L believes that a commensurate level of protection has been provided in lieu of additional SSE hose stations as described in Section C.6,c (4) of NUREG-0800.

Plant USA initial SER states "Each sprinkler and standpipe system connection to the distribution system is equipped with an indicating gate valve, so that groups of sprinkler systems and/or manual hose stations can be isolated without interrupting the supply to other sprinkler systems and manual hose stations connected to the same heat' Based on its evaluation, the staff finds that sprinkler and standpipe systems have been provided in accordance with Section C.6.(C) of BTP CMEB 9.5-l and are, therefore, acceptable.

SER 4 -

In the SER, the staff stated that standpipe system piping for hose stations protecting safe shutdown equipment has been analyzed for safe-shutdown earthquake (SSE) loading and is provided with seismic supports in accordance with Section C.6.c of BTP CMEB 9.5-l. In fact, this is not the case for the diesel generator building, the diesel fuel oil storage building, and the emergency service water intake structures. By letter dated August 25, 1986, the applicant justified this deviation from staff guidelines. On the basis of its review of the applicant's justification, which is based on the separation of the redundant safe-shutdown equipment located in the diesel generator building, the diesel fuel oil storage building, and the emergency service water (ESW) intake structure by seismic Category I 3-hour fire rated barriers, and the provision of alternative means of manual firefighting, the staff concludes that the standpipe system is acceptable. The lack of seismically qualified hose stations in the diesel generator and fuel oil storage buildings and the emergency service water (ESW) intake structure is an acceptable deviation from Section C.6.c of BTP CMEB 9.5-l. 9.5.1.6.
