On Wednesday, April 25, 1990 Ilydrant Hose House #7 was declared out of l service due to construction in the area which made it inaccessible, Technical Specification 3.14.F.2 was met by having additional lengths of 2-1/2 inch hose.

We estimate that the construction in the area will prevent the return to service of Hydrant Hose House #7 until approximately June 30, 1990. This construction involves excavation and placement of concreto, rebar, and structural steel for the building which will house two additional safeguards
