URGENT: EMERGENCY WATER SHUTDOWN
Please be advised that due to an accidental break of a main water distribution line, a major emergency water shutdown is in effect immediately (July 7, 2008, 13:00). We are working to resolve this issue as quickly as possible and anticipate that this emergency shutdown will be in effect for 6 to 8 hours.
During this period, the following buildings will be evacuated and closed as they will have no fire protection, emergency showers and eye-wash stations:
- FDA
- Wilson Hall
- Arts Building
- Dawson Hall
- McConnell Engineering
- Macdonald Engineering
- Redpath Museum
An assessment of the water pressure available to the following buildings is being conducted. If a shutdown of these buildings is required, we will send a follow-up notice.
- Administration Building
- James Ferrier
- Power House
We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. We hope to have water restored within the shortest time possible.
