Emergency Water Service Disruption, 10 p.m. Jan. 16 to 2 a.m. Jan. 17

Domestic water service in the Vanderbilt Clinic will be temporarily unavailable from 10 p.m. TODAY, January 16, until approximately 2 a.m. on Wednesday, January 17, due to repairs. Sterilization in the College of Dental Medicine will also be impacted for the duration of the shutdown.

During this time, hot and cold water will be unavailable, and restrooms will be inoperable in VC. Please use nearby restrooms in the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons Building.

Once work is completed, please allow faucets to run for 3-4 minutes to ensure constant flow and pressure. Water may appear brown at first, but will turn clear as it continues to run.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation as we work to improve our facilities. For questions or concerns, please contact John Hession, plant superintendent, at jkh2149@columbia.edu.
