TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER COOLING FAN INOPERABLE
"This event is reportable per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii) as described in NUREG-1022, Rev. 2 based on 'Loss of Response' capability.
"This is a non-emergency notification. At approximately 0734 EST on 12/15/2012 AH-17, the Technical Support Center (TSC) Cooling Fan was found exhibiting no flow. The cause of the no flow condition was a broken fan belt. Repairs are being planned and will be worked immediately.
"TSC functionality requires all areas of the TSC be maintained between 50 degrees F and 86 degrees F. The actual TSC area temperatures range from 59 degrees F to 67 degrees F.
"Should the TSC need to be activated for an event, . . . compensatory measures are in place to consider relocating the TSC to the Alternate Emergency Facility per PEP-240. This decision would he based on the existing event conditions and coordinated with the Emergency Response Manager, SEC-MCR, and Radiological Control Manager."
The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
