PLANNED MAINTENANCE ON SPDS AND ERDS
"At 0207 hours on 04/17/2009, the SPDS [Safety Parameter Display System] and ERDS [Emergency Response Data System] was removed from service to support activities for a planned maintenance outage on the UPS power supply. The duration of work is expected to be approximately 48 hours. During this time, Control Room indications and alternate methods will be available. Since the SPDS computer system will be unavailable for greater than 8 hours, this is considered a Loss of Emergency Assessment Capability and reportable under 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(xiii).
"The plant is in Op. Con. 5 [Refueling], Reactor Coolant Temperature is 87 [degrees] F and 'A' RHR is in shutdown cooling.
"The licensee will notify the NRC Resident Inspector."
