[Important Information for Employees] Update 5 | Loss of Heating Services in Residence Halls and Buildings

[Office of the President]

*The following message is being sent on behalf of Todd Moravec, Interim
Vice President for Administration and Finance*


Dear University Community,

The source of the rupture in the high-temperature hot water line has been
identified. Construction crews are working on a solution to repair the
rupture, but are encountering some barriers preventing the start of
repairs.


The following buildings continue to be impacted today:


   -

   Clinton Dining Hall
   -

   deFredenburgh Hall
   -

   Hood Hall
   -

   Moffitt Hall
   -

   Sibley Hall
   -

   Wilson Hall


The campus is monitoring temperatures in the impacted residence halls and
buildings. Indoor air temperatures in most impacted buildings have been
recorded in the mid to high 60s and are expected to fluctuate slightly
depending on outdoor temperatures. Residents of the affected halls should
continue to monitor their email accounts for updates and guidance from
campus housing. Contingency plans will be communicated if circumstances
change.

There will be temporary and intermittent disruptions to heating services in
other buildings and residence halls during the repair process. We continue
to expect that the heating load in these buildings will help minimize the
impact of these temporary disruptions.

We will continue to keep you informed with updates as we resolve these
issues.  Thank you, again, for your patience and understanding.

Todd Moravec
Interim Vice President, Administration and Finance
