The Facilities and Services department has uncovered an issue with one of the main water valves that serves the Brookens Library building. This will require our stationary engineers, working with Henson Robinson Co., to shut down the water service to that building from 5 AM through (approximately) noon that same day. If for some unforeseen circumstance a delay is caused for the plumbers, it may extend the re-filling of the water system for the building into the afternoon. As soon as the building plumbing systems are functional again that day, I will inform the campus. The delay in accomplishing this earlier during the holiday break was due to the lead time needed, to order and receive the valve.

I am sending this e-mail initially as a “head’s up” to each of you, but will also be sending a “reminder” to the campus this coming Wednesday.

Should your staff require the use of the “facilities”, they would need to go to the Public Affairs Center.

Thanks,
Dave
