| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | Comanche Peak Unit 2, Operating License NPF-89, Condition 2.G, Fire Protection, requires, in part, that the licensee implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the Final Safety Analysis Report through Amendment 87, and as approved in the Safety Evaluation Report and its supplements through Supplement 27. The stations approved fire protection program includes Fire Protection Report, Revision 29, Section 3.1 which requires, in part, that when fire detection equipment located inside of the containment building is inoperable then hourly monitoring of air temperature is performed as a compensatory measure. Contrary to the above, on November 22, 2016, licensee personnel identified that compensatory measures implemented for a failed detection system in the Unit 2 containment had not been implemented. The licensee had implemented a compensatory measure on December 3, 2015, to monitor containment temperature in the Unit 2 containment hourly due to a failed thermistor strip. On November 17, 2016, the licensee stopped monitoring temperature after restoring a different component to service. The licensee subsequently realized that the compensatory measure was still required and reinstated it on November 22, 2016. The violation is more than minor because it affected the protection against external events attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, the inspector determined that the violation is of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not affect the ability of either unit to achieve safe shutdown. The violation was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-2016-009888. |
