Grand Gulf Nuclear Station Units 1 and 2 Docket Nos. 50-416/417 File 0260/15525/15526 PRD-81/22, Final Report, Non Qualified HVAC Systems AECM-81/265
 
==Reference:==
AECM-81/148, 4/20/81 On March 20, 1981, Mississippi Power & Light Company notified Mr. P. A.
Taylor, of your office, of a Potentially Reportable Deficiency (PRD) at the Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGdS) construction site. The deficiency concerns non-seismically qualified ventilation systems which provide environmental cooling of seismically qualified systems.
We have determined that, had this deficiency remained uncorrected, it could have adversely affected the safety of operations of the nuclear power plant and is therefore reportable under the provisions of 10CFR50.55(e).                        It is not reportable under the provisions of 10CFR21, as explained in the attached final report.
Yours truly, J. P. McGaughy, Jr.

: 1. Description of the Deficienc,E The HVAC equipment rooms on Elevation 133'-0 of the Control Building and the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling Pump Room in the Auxiliary Building contain safety-related equipment which is seismically and environmentally qualified and must operate after a seismic event. NRC FSAR questions 010.24 and 010.25 requested information on how these rooms would be environmentally controlled af ter a seismic event. Upon review by our Architect / Engineer of the existing HVAC design, it was noted that HVAC to the Control Building HVAC Equipment Room and the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling Pump Room was provided only by non-seismically qualified HVAC systems. During the review, it was also noted that the Standby Gas Treatment System rooms, which required ventilation to avoid exceeding equipment qualification temperatures while operating, were not provided with a seismically qualified JVAC system.
This deficiency af fects the Spent Fuel Pool Cooling Systen (G41), Control Roou HVAC System (Z51), Standby Gas Treatment System (T48), and the Energency
.        Switchgear and Battery Rooms Ventilation System (Z77). It in applicable to both Unit 1, Unit 2, and Common. It does not apply to the NSSS vendor.
II. Analysis of Safety Implications If this condition had remained uncorrected, the possibility exists that excessive temperatures could be attained in the rooms described, which could have affected the operation of the safety-related switchgear and emergency battery room fans, control room standby fresh air fans, the standby gas treatment systems fans, and spent fuel pool cooling pumps. Potertially, failure of this equipment could cause loss of secondary containment integrity, loss of control room environment, failure of safety-related switchgear, and loss of fuel pool cooling. Therefore, this deficiency is reportable under 10CFR50.55(e).
None of the HVAC systems had been turned over to MP&L, therefore this defici-ency is not reportable by MP&L under the provisions of 10CFR21.
III. Corrective Actions Taken The cause of the deficiency was a failure by our Architect / Engineer to address the operability requirements of interfacing safety-related equipment in the HVAC design. The deficiency extends to safety-related HVAC syetems, safety-related switchgear, control room environment, and the secondary containment.
