Posted on

Begin:  Friday, August 29, 2025, at 8:00 am

End:      Friday, August 29, 2025, at 2:00 pm

Building(s) or Area(s) Affected:  Portland East Residence Hall

Scope:  Power will shut off to the East Residence Hall to allow Pacific Power to install a protective device on the power pole to help prevent electrocution of birds and small animals.

Services Impacted:  There will be no power in the building, so computers and wireless connections will not be functioning, nor will elevators and portable air conditioners that serve the few occupied offices in the East Residence Hall.

Special Instructions:  If you have concerns about accessing your workplace when elevator services are impacted, please contact your supervisor to find an appropriate accommodation.

Special Instructions:  Please shut down and unplug all multi-function copier devices as well as any printers during scheduled power outages. The software on these machines can be negatively affected due to the power surge when the power is turned back on.  A power surge can corrupt the clone files in the machines and change preconfigured settings.  For questions, please contact Kati Kronholm at 541-346-5370 or katik@uoregon.edu.  For non-copier questions, please reach out to the contact person listed below.
