SUBJECT: CFA Gas Line Removal 10/16

As a part of the ongoing CFA Infrastructure Renewal project, the existing and abandoned gas line in the steam tunnel will be removed starting on 10/16. People's Gas will be disconnecting and removing the gas meter and purging the gas line to ensure there is no supply of gas.
Starting Thursday morning crews will begin removing the piping from the building. Even though the gas line is empty and adequate ventilation is in place, the smell of gas may linger in the vicinity while the work is ongoing.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this work, please contact Kevin Shaffer, CDFD Project Manager, at krshaffer@cmu.edu.
