capability during a fire, 2005 NRC testing has revealed that both 
materials failed to provide the protective function intended for 
compliance with existing regulations, for the configurations tested 
using the thermal acceptance criteria from the National Fire Protection 
Association (NFPA) Standard 251, ``Standard Methods of Fire Tests of 
Building Construction and Materials.'' The NRC staff applied the 
supplemental guidance in GL 86-10, Supplement 1, ``Fire Endurance Test 
Acceptance Criteria for Fire Barrier Systems Used to Separate Redundant 
Safe Shutdown Trains Within the Same Fire Area'' for
