Building Occupants,
Tomorrow, Thursday, October 26th at 9:00 am Safety and Risk Services will be testing a fire suppression system in the Oregon Hall Data Center. The fire alarm will briefly go off in the Data Center basement, not the rest of the building. With the first floor being under construction SRS doesn’t anticipate any building users hearing the audible alarm. However, just in case building occupants hear the alarm, please be advised this is only a test.
Horns, Strobes, and Speakers on the fire alarm system will not sound after the scheduled time. Provisions have been taken to monitor the building fire systems during this time and alarms that occur after the scheduled time should be considered real events and occupants should evacuate as usual per the U of O Emergency Procedures.
If there are questions regarding emergency evacuation, please visit Emergency Management & Continuity, http://emc.uoregon.edu/node/50 and follow the UO Campus Emergency Procedures Manual.
You may also contact Fire Protection Manager Simon Ditton with Safety and Risk Services at 541-346-2958 if you have any questions or concerns.
