| "Indian Point #2 Station |
| |
| "High Pressure Fire Header Impairment |
| |
| "Fire Impairment and Surveillance per Station Administration Order 703. |
| |
| "NRC event # 37683. The high pressure Fire Water Protection System is |
| degraded due to planned maintenance work. The inner and outer high-pressure |
| fire headers are split to provide protection for work on the valves for 12 |
| Fire Main Booster Pump. 12 Fire main booster pump is inoperable during this |
| tag-out. The diesel fire pump is in service as the alternate fire protection |
| for the outside fire header. 11 and 12 fire maintenance pumps are supplying |
| the inside header with 11 Fire Main Booster Pump available as a back up. |
| SAO-703 states one fire main booster pump out of service is a 7-day action |
| statement to return it to operable status. The headers being separated or |
| any part of the fire protection piping or valves not being able to perform |
| its function other than the specific instances described in SAO-703 requires |
| an alternate fire protection system shall be established. This was |
| established within 24 hours to ensure compliance with SAO-703 as described |
| above. A special report shall be submitted to the NRC Regional Administrator |
| of the Region 1 Office outlining this event within 14 Days." |
| |
| The licensee informed the NRC resident inspector. |
