Welcome to Facilities Services

Replacement of the Air Conditioning Controls and Hot Water Valves. The contractor will begin the work in the ceiling spaces on the second and third floors of SSW for the installation of new Air Conditioning Controls and Hot Water Valves. These will be completed in two phases; the first will be for the Hot Water Valves and the second for the controls. The work will include setting up plastic containment hung from the ceiling in the work areas, opening the ceilings, possibly moving lights, moving furniture as needed, and working off ladders in the space. The ceilings will be opened for the work and may remain open for multiple days as needed. When the work is complete, the contractor will replace the ceiling tiles and the work areas will be cleaned. Contractor access will be required to various locations in the suites to include open areas, reception areas, offices, and breakrooms. The contractor will be using battery powered hand tools for the work with some louder work to install anchors. During this work the supplemental heating in the offices will not be functioning, so there is a potential for the space to be colder throughout the day. More specific details will follow to the department contacts. 

A boom lift will be moved up to West Commons patio on March 27 in order to paint the exterior of West Commons for the building renaming. There will be a minor traffic disruption due to blocking of Aztec Circle Drive to thru traffic on March 27 from 6 to 10 a.m. Flaggers will be present. Pedestrian traffic may be rerouted during this project.

Facilities Services will be performing a utility interruption to repair a heating hot water (HHW) leak in the Fowler Athletics Men's Locker Room. The heating hot water system will be shut down on Friday March 24^th at 12:00pm to commence draining in preparation for repair. Building temperature will be colder than normal for duration of interruption. Ventilation will not be affected. Domestic hot water system will not be affected.

The domestic hot and cold water will be shut down to Love Library to make necessary repairs to both the hot and cold domestic water mains. Hot water only will be shut down to Love Library Addition.  Water mains have leaks that have been temporarily contained. Permanent repairs will be performed during this interruption. Fire Suppression will NOT be affected. Love Library Addition will still have domestic cold water (and therefore restrooms will be available for use in Love Library Addition).

Aztec Circle Drive will have a temporary and minor traffic disruption in order to replace broken water valves. Expect one way traffic on Aztec Circle Drive during this time. Sidewalks will remain open. Fire suppression will be impacted due to the nature of this project. Fire Watch will be taking place at Parking Structure 12 until the system is restored. One person will be patrolling. The fire alarms in these buildings and the parking structure will remain active. Water should only be off for the first 48 hours maximum in this phase.

A project to remove debris from catch fences along Canyon Crest Drive and repair to concrete swale across from North Art will result in a minor traffic disruption on Canyon Crest Drive, due to blocking one lane in multiple areas with flaggers. 

Facilities Services is scheduling a Natural Gas Utility interruption that will affect multiple buildings on campus to repair a failed natural gas isolation valve. This valve is necessary in the event of a leak and to facilitate maintenance of the natural gas distribution system. Having a functional valve in place will minimize the impact to campus end users for future events.

Love Library RM 40 will have an upgrade to the compact storage system, which will increase the overal density. The project will also address fire life safety modifications and adjustments to existing lighting to accommodate the new storage layout. All work will be performed inside of the room. There are no anticipated impacts to occupants. 

The domestic hot and cold water will be shut down to KPBS/GATEWAY in order for the City of San Diego Cross Connection department to verify their two meter feeds to the buildings. Fire suppression will NOT be affected.  The interruption will begin at approximately 6:00 a.m. and end at approximately 6:30 a.m.
