FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant License No. DPR-59 Lycoming, New York 13093 As a result of the inspection conducted on June 17 - 21, 1985, and in accor-dance with the NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2, Appendix C), published in the Federal Register on March 8,1984 (49 FR 8583), the following violation was identified.

10 CFR 50 Appendix R, section III G.2 requires that redundant safe shutdown systems and associated non-safety circuits that could prevent operation or cause maloperation of the safe shutdown systems, shall be separated by either a fire barrier having a 3 hour3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> rating or shall be separated by a horizontal distance of 20 feet with no intervening combustibles with area suppression and '

Contrary to the above on June 17, 1985, the fire barrier walls between the Con-trol Room and Relay Room were found to contain penetrations with non-rated seals. Also redundant cables and conduits that could impact safe shutdown were located within the same fire areas (East and West cable tunnels) without the proper separation. Power cable No. 1H0EBBH001 associated with the B train was located in the same fire area with cables associated with train A in the west tunnel. Also, conduits No. ICC208NA6, ICC230RD1, ICC767NQ and ICK025RF asso-ciated with train A were located in the East tunnel with conduits associated with train B.

This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement 1).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, the Power Authority of the State of New York, is hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of the letter which transmitted this Notice, a written statement or expla-nation in reply, including: (1) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
