[msu_ops] conference room drapes and smoldering mulch

[Thanh Pham]

Hi everyone,

 

With the recent warm weather, we can do some things to help offset the hot
climate in some of the rooms. In the conference rooms, we can close the
drapes to keep the sun from baking the room. This is just a temporary
procedure until the Air Conditioning is turned on by facilities until the
university switches over to the AC systems around May 15th. The AC system
and the Heating system (also known as HVAC for both heating/cooling), is a
involved process to switch from heating to cooling and for other reasons
(seasonal). So, we can put fans (behind 183) in rooms and please leave the
fans in 250 in the room.

 

With the heat, it also dries out the mulch around the building. During
rounds, please do an outside round to check on the mulch. If it is
smoldering, grab a bucket of water from a custodian and pour it around the
smoldering area. Please take care by trying to spread the water around the
area, not just the smoldering spot. It's probably safe to put water above
the smoldering area and working down. Also, part of protocol would be
calling public safety (34002) after the mulch area has been contained.
Please be present when the officer arrives, or relay the message to the next
BA or manager. 

 

Thank you!!!
