Scope:  The Student Recreation Center will be closed August 28th-September 12th for annual maintenance. As part of facility maintenance, hardwood floors will be screened and sealed.

This work will take place over four working days starting Tuesday, August 31st and concluding on Friday, September 3rd.

Services Impacted:  Although measures will be taken to reduce the impact, the floor sealant gives off an odor that may impact those with respiratory sensitivity. In previous years there have been reports of odor impacting occupants of Esslinger Hall. Although work will be completed on 9/3, there could still be off-gassing taking place for a couple of days.
