Displaying until January 4, 2021
Selected custodial and energy services will be reduced during the Winter Administrative Recess (December 21, 2020 to January 1, 2021) in an effort to conscientiously conserve campus resources during this period. The last day for full enhanced cleaning, including the emptying of all trash and recycling containers, will be Friday, December 18, 2020.
Research buildings will remain in operation with reduced custodial services—beginning on Monday, December 21 through Wednesday, December 23, and Monday, December 28 through Wednesday, December 30—all restrooms and common areas will be cleaned once in the morning. Testing sites will be supported.
Regularly scheduled work, including enhanced cleaning will resume on Monday, January 4, 2021. Contact the Facilities Management Service Desk at 949.824.5444 for urgent custodial services.
Select buildings that will experience utility service shutdowns will receive a notification, and HVAC operating schedules in office and classroom areas will be adjusted to meet Winter Administrative Recess schedules. Spaces with special environmental/operational needs and laboratory research building schedules will not be affected. Please direct questions or concerns to your facility manager or the Facilities Management Service Desk at 949.824.5444.
Help the campus conserve energy over the winter administrative break by remembering to do the following:
- Turn off all office equipment including computers, printers, copiers, scanners, fax machines, monitors, multimedia speakers, and any other equipment.
- Turn off and unplug all appliances including coffee makers, toasters, microwaves, and personal/office refrigerators.
- Turn off all lights including desk lamps, floor lamps, and overhead lights in restrooms, break rooms, conference rooms and areas that will not be used during the break.
- Close all windows and blinds. If your thermostat is adjustable, please set to 68 degrees.
- In research areas with freezers, please consider defrosting and disposing of old and expired samples. Please make your ultra-low temperature freezer as efficient and optimized as possible.
We appreciate your cooperation and wish you a happy, healthy and safe holiday season.
