A campuswide power outage is planned for Saturday, Aug. 9, to allow the second of the new campus substation transformers to be lifted into position.
This will require a total power outage lasting up to four hours for all university buildings on the main campus (generally between Pine and State streets and between 10th and 16th streets, and the Havener Center, McNutt Hall, Quad Dorms, Gale Bullman Multi-Purpose Building, Student Recreation Center, General Services, Comp Flow Lab, and Temporary Research Facility).
Buildings fed directly by Rolla Municipal Utilities will not be affected. These include: Campus Support Facility, Bureau of Mines Buildings, Residence Halls No. 1 and 2, Thomas Jefferson Hall, South Central Regional Professional Development Center, Rock Mechanics, Miner Recreation, Student Design Center Shop Facility, Student Health Center, Custodial and Grounds, Southwestern Bell Cultural Center, 1304 North Pine, and 14th Street Building.
Laboratory equipment should be secured as necessary. Contact Jim Packard or Mike Amick at 341-4252 with questions.
