For public safety, all work areas will be clearly delineated and controlled throughout the activity. The contractor will also have staff on site to coordinate pedestrian and vehicle traffic and help maintain safe access around the work area.
IMPORTANT ACCESS INFORMATION:
The main doors to Cheadle Hall will NOT be accessible during the crane activity. Please plan to enter and exit the building using the WEST DOORS.
We encourage everyone who will be accessing Cheadle Hall during this time to plan accordingly and allow additional time for navigating around the controlled work areas.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation as the project team and contractor work to safely complete this activity.

The campus chilled water loop has a finite cooling capacity. When demand on the loop exceeds that capacity - typically during hot weather or periods of heavy campus-wide use - Facilities Management curtails comfort cooling to buildings in order to keep critical systems supporting research operational.
When this happens, affected buildings may experience warmer indoor temperatures than usual. This is expected and temporary. Comfort cooling is restored to normal levels as soon as demand on the loop drops back within capacity. The affected buildings for this curtailment event are as follows:
221 – Student Resource Building (SRB)
223 – Theater & Dance West
243 – Intercollegiate Athletics Building (ICA)
275 – Education
276 – Social Sciences and Media Studies (SSMS)
277 – Pollock Theater
505 – Events Center
515 – Humanities and Social Sciences Building (HSSB)
517 – Mosher Alumni House
521 – Bren Hall
525 – UCSB Library
531 – Music
535 – North Hall
544 – Noble Hall
551 – Psychology
554 – Theater & Dance East
556 – Harold Frank Hall
