Hi all,
At approx. 9:00pm a huge amount of water was flowing out from just over
the E40 loading dock door. I had contacted P.P. who responded with in 10
minutes. Campus Police (notified by P.P.) was also on the scene. After sifting
through the info. throughout the evening, it has been determined that the
6 cells holding the water on the roof were in overflow mode. P.P. is now pretty
sure that this was due to a faulty switch. Brian Murphy and I had checked the
integrity of the stock,staging, and machine rooms in E40. It was noticed that
the machine room was on warm side, pushing just over 71 degrees or so.
There were other complications that arose, such as the computer at P.P.
went down, and is still down, thus not allowing for any temp. modifications
to take place. Jweiss had been notified and has arrived on the scene. He will
be working with Don (P.P.) for at least a few more hours. Jonathon & P.P. have
now got things under control, and the E40-008 appears to be maintaining
around 71 degrees or so. Without getting into many more details, thats about
where we are at this point.
