Central Utility Plant Plume

A steam plume may be visible above the Central utility plant January 28^th through January 30^th as workers put into operation new equipment that ensures the reliability of campus heating and cooling operations. Work will take place from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day.

Pedestrian walkways will remain open, and the work will not cause any disruption to utility services. Parking and loading docks at University Library will not be affected.

Please direct any questions about the work to project manager Kory Burton at kory@northwestern.edu.
