UO’s winter quiet period, between December 25 and January 1 holidays, is almost here! Many on-campus services will be reduced. Please take a moment to review previous news briefs about planning for building closures, winter break locking schedule, and taking extra safety and security precautions.  If an area you work in or are responsible for is planned to be unoccupied, please also review these “before you leave” reminders below for methods to ensure areas that will be unattended are left in a safe, secure, and environmentally sustainable manner.

• Make sure windows and doors are closed and locked.  Close window coverings if applicable.
• Turn down heating thermostats to “away mode” if locally controlled.
• Turn off lights.
• Turn off computers.
• Unplug electrical appliances including but not limited to coffee pots, space heaters, holiday lights.
• Eliminate pest attractants by disposing of all food and garbage.
• In laboratories, ensure that fume hood sashes are fully closed and that plumbing fixtures (gas and water) have valves closed.

Thank you.
