1, AStandard Review Plan for Review of License Renewal Applications for Nuclear Power Plants@ and NUREG-1801, Revision 1, AGeneric Aging Lessons Learned (GALL) Report@ also provide review guidance for license renewal applications. 10 CFR 54.4(a)(3), states, in part, that SSCs relied on in safety analyses or plant evaluations to perform a function that demonstrates compliance with the Commission=s regulations for fire protection (10 CFR Part 50.48) are within the scope of the rule. NUREG-1800 and NEI 95-10 provide the methodology for scoping and screening of fire protection SSCs. When evaluating license renewal applications, it is important to note that the scope of SSCs included in 10 CFR Part 50.48 goes beyond the protection of only safety-related equipment. In accordance with GDC 3, AFire Protection,@ the scope of equipment required to comply with 10 CFR Part 50.48 is broad and also includes fire protection SSCs needed to minimize the effects of a fire and to prevent the release of radioactive material to the environment - i.e., equipment Aimportant to safety.@ If applicable, the scoping methods used by an applicant should include review of any commitments made for compliance with Appendix A to BTP APCSB 9.5-1, AGuidelines for fire Protection for Nuclear Plants Docketed Prior to July 1, 1976,@ or 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix R, AFire Protection Program For Nuclear Power Facilities Operating Prior to January 1, 1979.@ 10 CFR Part 54.21 states that for those components with intended functions that are identified within the scope of license renewal, those components which are passive (do not perform their functions with moving parts) and long-lived (are not subject to replacement based on qualified life or routine replacement) are subject to an aging management review (AMR). Examples of fire protection components which are passive and long-lived, and that, therefore, would be subject to an AMR, include fire barrier assemblies (e.g. ceilings, damper housing, doors,
