o SEQUOYAll NUCLEAR PIANT SPECIAL REPORT 83-02 Event Description Special Test SQ-STEAR-INST-83-01 was written and performed as a result of NCR SQNMEB8207. The functional test performed on the Ruskin Manufacturing Company vertical fire dampers provided information that this particular type damper may not completely close when re. cased where installed in ductwork with high velocity air flow. There are apgroximately 120 of these dampers located in the control and auxiliary building that are involved. Firewatch coverage as required by technical specification 3. 7.12 was initiated.

Corrective Action Ruskin Manufacturing Company has recommended that a negator spring and positive blade latch be installed. These parts have been ordered and upon verification that this modification will result in the proper operation of the damper, then all the remaining dampr.rs will be modified.

In the interim, technical specification action statement 3/4.7.12.a will continue to be implemented.
