To all members of the Faculty of Medicine,

The Emergency Operations Centre (EOC)听has confirmed that,听starting Friday, July 27,听7:00 a.m.,听McIntyre Floors 7 to 13 will reopen for all faculty and staff members and students, with the exceptions identified below.听New air filters have been successfully installed in three of the four main HVAC systems serving these floors. All are functioning properly, and temperatures are dropping. Please enter via the 6th Floor Pine entrance, as barriers have been installed to isolate the top floors from those below. The 6^th听floor Pine entrance must also be used by the ARC.

Please note that fire and emergency exit/evacuation routes for Floors 7 to 13, as well as听14听to 16,听are explained here.听It is important that you read and familiarize yourself with these instructions.

We recommend that you ease into normal operations, limiting the number of individuals who return on the first听day听to allow temperatures to continue to decrease and stabilize.

Exceptions:

• We continue to work closely with lab supervisors and听members to clean three labs on听Floors 7 to 13 (Rooms 713,听800 and 1236). Once听the cleanup protocol is completed,听these spaces will be reopened and lab members will be notified.
• Office space occupied by Administrative听Excellence Centre听12 remains听closed; AEC 12 staff were relocated earlier this week to听the 13^th听floor at 2001 苹果淫院 College.

Rooms served by the fourth HVAC system:

While rooms on Floors 7 to 13 served by the fourth HVAC system will also reopen Friday, July 27, 7:00 a.m.,听work will continue on the ventilation through next week.听It is important to note that, while these rooms are safe, they will not be ventilated, so conditions will be warm and suboptimal.听These rooms are identified here. The protocol to听clean this more heavily impacted HVAC unit听is听being finalized, and may involve additional temporary closures on a floor-by-floor basis.

1^st听floor laboratories:

The EOC expects to receive the scope of work for Floor 1 next week. In the interim, we have begun developing a Plan B to relocate the labs located on this floor, if deemed necessary, while demolition and reconstruction ensues. In the meantime, the protocol for one-hour access to Floor 1 labs remains the same,听and you will continue to use the 1st听floor entrance.

If you have concerns regarding temperatures and freezer/refrigeration units in your labs, email听buildingdirector.med [at] mcgill.ca听without delay听to request a mobile air cooling unit.

Please watch for the next update, which will include a summary of questions and answers from today鈥檚 special information session in the Strathcona amphitheatre.听Thank you to everyone who came to the session to raise the important concerns in your areas, and to all who are dedicated to this major effort.

Thank you, in advance, for circulating these updates听to students and others in your McIntyre labs, as needed, to ensure all are aware of the work in progress.

Sincerely,

听
