A power shutdown needs to be scheduled for Hamburg Hall, Newell Simon Hall, Smith Hall and the FMS Building in order to connect redundant high voltage power service to the Tepper Quad. 

 

There will be a meeting on Monday, 3/18, at 10:30AM in the FMCS 2nd Floor Conference Room to discuss details of this shutdown.  The intent of the meeting is to solicit input on the potential impacts to critical equipment that would be affected and determine a date/time that avoids or minimizes the most negative effects.
