Grad Lounge Temporary Closure
by James De Castro 24 Jun '21

24 Jun '21

Hi everyone, There is an active leak in the grad lounge currently, so PSGSA advises not to use the room. We have notified Physical Plant before and we don't know when they will be able to fix the issue. So until they do, and until PSGSA is able to do a proper clean-up, please have lunch elsewhere for the time being. We apologize for this inconvenience, PSGSA Team

FW: Natural gas disruption!
by Bev Godard 16 Jun '21

Please see Cathy's message below for a heads up on what may happen in parking lot G and surrounding area re gas leak. From: Cathy Bay Sent: June 16, 2021 2:40 PM To: Claudio Stasolla <Claudio.Stasolla(a)umanitoba.ca>; Bev Godard <Bev.Godard(a)umanitoba.ca> Subject: Natural gas disruption! Hello, In regard to this latest notification, we have periodically smelt gas at the west end of the greenhouse complex for the last year, and have had physical plant investigate. Hydro is apparently sniffing around parking lot G today. The leak is apparently underground and outside. I believe they will be digging up the parking lot to make repairs. Just a heads up, this may impact entry into the greenhouse storage area and access to the walk in fridges and freezers from the overhead garage door. Deliveries, liquid nitrogen, garbage pick up are all accessed through that entrance. Not sure of the size/exact area affected yet. Cathy
