TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER OUT OF SERVICE FOR PLANNED PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

"At 0400 [CDT] on Wednesday, August 3, 2011, the Dresden Nuclear Power Station (DNPS) Technical Support Center (TSC) emergency ventilation system will be removed from service for planned preventative maintenance activities on the TSC ventilation radiation monitoring system (PING). The TSC air handing and filtration units will be nonfunctional, rendering the TSC HVAC accident mode non-functional. This maintenance is scheduled to minimize out of service time. The planned TSC ventilation outage is scheduled to be completed within 48 hours. If an emergency is declared requiring TSC activation during this period, the TSC will be staffed and activated using existing Emergency Planning procedures and checklists. If radiological conditions require TSC facility evacuation during ventilation system restoration; the Station Emergency Director will evacuate and relocate the TSC staff in accordance with, EP-AA-112-200-F-01.

"The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector."
