Greetings,
Roger Moore has asked me to inform you that the Co-Gen turbine tripped at
approximately 4:55 PM.
Celco power has maintained continuity of electric power on the campus.
There has been a loss of high pressure steam at the plant, and they are
working to restore it. It is expected to be restored by 5:30 to 6 PM.
Central chilled water steam turbines are off, and chilled water temperatures
are expected to rise slowly to the mid 50's before coming back down again.
Outside air temperature is 52f, and the disruption of general heating in
buildings and laboratories should not be too severe.
Carl Hagge,
