Inspection basis:
This procedure inspects the safety-conscious work environment (SCWE) attribute of a licensee’s safety culture. This procedure can also be used to follow-up on a SCWE cross cutting issue (CCI) or SCWE theme. Insights gathered during this inspection would be considered during the mid- or end-of-cycle assessment meetings conducted in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0305, “Operating Reactor Assessment Program.” The SCWE safety culture attribute is sampled during the biennial problem identification and resolution team inspection conducted in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71152, “Problem Identification and Resolution.” When directed by management, SCWE-related issues of concern identified during IP 71152 can be examined in more depth using this procedure to gain additional insights.
Note:
A SCWE is defined as an environment in which employees are encouraged to raise safety concerns, are free to raise concerns both to their own management and to the NRC without fear of retaliation, where concerns are promptly reviewed, given the proper priority, and appropriately resolved, and timely feedback is provided to those raising concerns. In contrast, a “chilled work environment” is one in which employees perceive that raising safety concerns to their employer or to the NRC is being suppressed or is discouraged and can occur because of an event, interaction, decision, or policy change.

Purpose:
This attachment provides supporting information describing the heat release rate (HRR) profile (HRR versus time curve) parameters and HRR gamma distribution parameters for various fixed and transient ignition sources. The profiles and distribution parameters were used to develop the tables and plots in sets A, D, and E of Attachment 8 to the Fire Protection Significance Determination Process (SDP), IMC 0609 Appendix F. These tables and plots allow the analyst to look up the vertical and radial zone of influence (ZOI) (used in Step 2.3.2), severity factor (SF) (used in Step 2.6.1), and damage time (used in Step 2.7.1) for a specified fixed or transient ignition source, target type, and target location for fire damage state 1 (FDS1) scenarios. Guidance is also provided for determining the HRR of confined and unconfined oil fires, cable tray fires, and hot work fires.
