MILLINGTON, Tenn. (NNS) -- Due to ongoing flood recovery efforts, some Navy Personnel Command (NPC) information technology systems are being taken offline for building cleaning and inspection May 14-17.

The following systems will be unavailable from 7 p.m. May 14 to 6 a.m. May 17, Central time:

• BUPERS Online and associated applications (including, but not limited to: Web Enabled Record Review, Navy-Marine Corps Mobilization Processing System, Physical Readiness Information Management Systems, Corrections Management Information System, Flag Fitness Reports, Overseas Screening, view orders, and e-submissions)

• Electronic Military Personnel Record System

• NMCI connectivity for all Millington NMCI users (Internet, e-mail and shared drive access)

This scheduled outage is being performed to continue the cleanup and restoration efforts of the data server building following the flood that occurred at Naval Support Activity Mid-South, Millington, Tenn., May 1.

"Some of the electrical cabling needed additional cleaning to make it environmentally safe for our watch standers," said Randy Wyatt, NPC Application and Engineering Branch Head. "So we're going offline to perform a thorough cleaning."

According to the NPC IT Services Branch, scheduled outages are part of routine business.
