Notifications and Emergencies

Notifications

HS Building Management provides notifications to building occupants in Health Sciences, the Foege Building, ARCF, and South Campus Center.  These include utility shutdowns, construction updates, and exterior activities in the immediate vicinity.

If you are not currently receiving notifications, contact HS Building Management:  hsbuild@uw.edu.  Include your wing location(s) in the email so we can add your information to our notifications database.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the effects or timing of a shutdown, contact:  Craig Steiner, UW Facilities, Health Sciences Maintenance Zone at 206-685-8862 or craigs4@uw.edu.

Be sure to reference the six digit work request number in your message.
