The first LHC shut-down started in fall 2008, just after the incident on the 19th of September 2008. In addition to the typical work of a shut-down, a large number of interventions, related to the 'consolidation after the incident' were performed in the LHC loop. Moreover the amount of work increased during the shut-down, following the recommendations and conclusions of the different working groups in charge of the safety of the personnel and of the machine. This paper will give an overview of the work performed, the organization of the coordination, emphasizing the new safety risks (electrical and cryogenic), and how the interventions were implemented in order to ensure both the safety of personnel and a minimized time window.
