VP&S Bldg. Steam Disruption, Feb. 26

Due to repairs, the steam systems in the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons Building will be temporarily unavailable from 7 a.m. to approximately 4 p.m. on Thursday, February 26.

• While we conduct the repairs, there will be no hot water, heating, sterilization, autoclaves, steam tables, or dishwashers available throughout the building.
• Eyewash devices and overhead emergency shower units will be functional but will be supplied with cold water only. Accordingly, please consider limiting research operations that have significant potential for splash or face and bodily exposure during the shutdown. 

For questions or concerns, please contact Fred Arce, assistant director of Facilities Engineering, at aa164@cumc.columbia.edu.
