Title | Plant Modification Blocked Access For Manual Firefighting |
Description | A noncited violation of License Condition 2.C.(41), Fire Protection Program, was identified related to making a plant change that negatively impacted the effectiveness of the approved Fire Protection Program. The team identified that the licensee had permanently blocked the door to the abandoned Unit 2 portion of the joint control room without performing a fire protection impact evaluation. The only remaining access path was a small hatch that would have made it difficult for fire fighters to gain access with protective clothing and equipment. A fire in this area could threaten operations in the Unit 1 control room if not promptly suppressed. This finding was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect in problem identification and resolution timeliness (P.1.d) because fire protection personnel recognized that a new access door was needed in 2006, but no substantial action had been taken to install it by the time of this inspection. This finding was entered in to the licensees corrective action program under Condition Reports 2008-001893 and 2008-01913. Blocking access to the Unit 2 control room area and not promptly restoring access to allow manual fire suppression was a performance deficiency. This finding was more than minor because it affected the protection against external factors (fire) attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events in order to prevent undesirable consequences. This finding was evaluated using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, because it affected a fire protection defense-in-depth element. This finding was determined to have very low safety significance because all potential fire ignition sources in the affected area screened out in Task 2.3.4 in the Phase 2 evaluation. There were no ignition sources because the licensee had removed electrical power from this area, and administratively prevented hot work and storage of transient combustible material from this area |
