Title | |
Description | The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) involving a noncited violation of Millstone Power Station, Unit 2, Renewed Facility Operating License Condition 2.C.(3) to implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR). Specifically, Dominion failed to maintain the #2 steam generator (SG) atmospheric dump valve (ADV) free from fire damage, which may have affected the availability to maintain hot shutdown conditions from the main control room for a fire in Fire Area R-14, Lower 4.16kV Switchgear Room and Cable Vault. Dominion promptly entered this safe shutdown issue into their corrective action program as condition report (CR) 1043458. Immediate corrective actions included implementing compensatory measures in the form of fire watches for fire area R-14 that are being tracked by Reasonable Assurance of Safety (RAS) determination 3037040. Longer term corrective actions included submitting an exemption request to the NRC for use of a local operator manual action (OMA) to operate the #2 SG ADV in lieu of meeting fire protection requirements for fire area R-14. The team considered Dominions immediate and longer term corrective actions appropriate. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it affected the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to an external event to prevent undesirable consequences in the event of a fire. Specifically, the use of an OMA during post-fire safe shutdown is not as reliable as normal systems operation which could be utilized had the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix R, Section III.G.2 been met and, therefore, prevented fire damage to credited components and/or cables, specifically the #2 SG ADV. The inspectors used IMC 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, Phase 1 and determined the reactor is able to reach and maintain a hot safe shutdown condition because the SG ADVs are used for transition to cold shutdown, therefore this finding was of very low safety significance (Green). This finding does not have a cross cutting aspect because the performance deficiency occurred greater than three years ago when the June 30, 2011 exemption request letter to the NRC was supplemented by letter on February 29, 2012, and is not indicative of current licensee performance. |
