There will be a power outage for much of the campus including Knight Library on Saturday, Dec 19 2009 from 7:00am-9:00am. Blackboard will be unavailable during this time.
The notification message for the power outage follows:
* *
*CAMPUS-WIDE ELECTRICAL SHUTDOWN*
*Saturday, December 19^th 7:00am -9:30am*
TO: The Campus Community
FROM: Debbie Cadigan, Campus Relations Manager, Facilities Services
SUBJECT: Campus-Wide Electrical Shutdown
Campus Operations is planning a campus-wide electrical shutdown on _Saturday, December 19, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m._ This is related to the electrical infrastructure upgrade at the Central Power Station and to comply with the National Fire and Protection Association article 110 that requires us to perform annual maintenance to the campus high-voltage electrical distribution system.__
All campus facilities, except those few that receive their power directly from EWEB, will be affected.
_PLEASE NOTE*:*_ Make sure all sensitive electronics, including computers and printers, are turned off or disconnected prior to this shutdown. Be sure everyone in your department is aware of this.
Some buildings are partially served by campus standby power or local generators. The circuits on these systems will have a short outage of less than 10 seconds at the start of the shutdown and a quick bump at the end of the shutdown. This bump may occur up to 20 minutes after power is restored. Buildings served entirely by the campus standby power system will experience only one 10-second outage at the beginning of the shutdown.
After the shutdown has been completed, Campus Operations personnel will be making sure HVAC systems and elevators, as well as other equipment, are reset. _At this time only a weather or other related emergency would cause this shutdown to be delayed. If this were the case, a notification will be sent by noon, Friday, December 18^th . _
If you have specific questions about this shutdown, please contact Del McGee, ext. 6-5387 or _mcgee@uoregon.edu;_ Ernie Svensson at 6-2302 or _ecs@uoregon.edu;_ or Greg Haider at 6-2302 or greghaid@uoregon.edu. I realize some of you will receive this notice more than once as you are on more than one building user distribution list. My apologies for that.
