CRI Progress Update
-
In order
to access the Radioactive Waste Building one must travel over the
construction site. We would like to build a ramp over the steps
at the northeast entry near the construction trailer so that one
could go straight out into the Radioactive Waste Building. Maps
will be circulated to show route.
-
The pile-driving
schedule is going to be pushed up a bit to 29 January. We will be
driving piles on the far side of the project for several full days.
Complaints about the noise, thus far, have been minimal. Only when
the piles were being driven right next to the building were there
any comments at all.
-
Beth Gladden
asked about hooks and a platform that were installed in 224A as
part of a project sometime ago. She would like to have them removed
if possible. Mac will look into this.
-
Beth also
asked Jack Buchanan about uncapped pipes and broken glass lines
in the ceiling of 224, 225 that are resulting in fumes into the
area.
-
East Air
handler will be down for about 5 hours this Friday night (18 January)
in order to replace the plywood on the outside of the building with
louvers.
-
On 29
January there will be a crane in the President's parking lot to
put the sound attenuation package on the west end exhaust-- also
to complete some fireproofing in the area. This sound attenuation
work should satisfy the Graduation Committee members who were concerned
about the sound level from this exhaust fan toward the area used
for graduation.
-
Beth Gladden
asked Jack Buchanan what he wanted to do with the alcohol burners
and the propane tanks that were issued to the labs. Jack said he
would have one of his men collect them and store them for future
use.
-
Ed Krug
mentioned that Hank Harrison and Dan were very helpful in off loading
the centrifuge and delivering it to the building.
-
Mac reported
that Pharmacology's second mass spec had arrived and been delivered
to the third floor.
-
The filter
medium for the 2nd floor has been ordered from a company in Columbia
and delivery is expected very soon. These filters will be installed
as soon as they arrive. Dave Dement also would like to install filters
on the air supplies in the 2nd floor lab.
-
BSB207
does not have ductwork to supply either heat or air to Dr. Pandy's
office. Jack Buchanan agreed to investigate this oversight.
-
Ed Krug
asked if there were any plans to increase security in BSB. Beth
Gladden expressed concern about the security system on certain doors
on the 2nd floor because it is easily bypassed. Beth asked about
the northwest back door being locked. She was under the impression
that this door would be open now that the area outside no longer
represented a hazardous construction site. Leslie Kendall said she
thought this was part of the upcoming security measures for BSB
and was to be locked down permanently. Leslie Kendall agreed to
follow up on all of these safety issues with Dr. Raymond and Public
Safety.
