To accommodate ongoing Student Union Quad construction, a planned water supply interruption will take place during the evening of Sunday, August 23, from 6:00 p.m. until no later than 6:00 a.m. the following morning. Caudell Hall, Bulger Communications Center, Campbell Student Union, E. H. Butler Library, Cleveland Hall, and Bishop Hall will be without water during this time.
When the systems are re-initiated, there is a chance of a discoloration in the water to all buildings on campus. Where this may occur, individuals are requested to run the water until it becomes clear prior to using or drinking the water.
Questions about this project can be e-mailed to VPFM@buffalostate.edu. Please refer to www.buffalostate.edu/construction for the latest information about current and upcoming projects.
