| event text = Emergency Service Water "A" (ESW ) Pump failure resulted in inoperability of all Div 1 ECCS systems at 0150 on 05/21/04 [See event notification 40767].  A plant shutdown was initiated with mode 4 [cold shutdown] achieved at 0619 on 05/23/04.  During the disassembly and inspection of ESW A pump, a failed coupling on the pump shaft was found to be the cause of the failure.  An Operability Determination [OD] was requested on ESW B at 1330 on 05/24/04 since both pumps had the identical coupling design and the pumps had similar run times.  At 1500, the Design Engineering Manager informed the control room that engineering could not return a completed OD within the allotted time that could justify continued ESW B operability.  The control room Shift Manager than declared the ESW B pump inoperable.  This results in a condition that could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function, specifically the removal of residual heat.
