During this time one diesel driven fire pump (DDFP) was capable of starting and running.
The motor driven fire pump (MDFP) was out of sarvice for maintenance on its electrical supply bus.
Due to the MDFP being out of arvice, the No. 1 DDFP and the system jockey pump were running to maintain system pressure.
On the-evening of 10-26-92, fire suppression heade' pressure on the Main Control Board indicator was observed decreasing.
Personnel were oispatched to investigate.

After being declared inoperable the pump was secured for maintenance on its packing gland. At this point, the No. 1 DDFP was nanually started and maintained system pressure during the 36 minutes that No. 2 DDFP was inoperable.
Fol'owing maintenance on the
. packing, the No. 2 DDFP was restarted and the No. I DDFP was secured for fuel filter changeout.
