Hello CNF Researchers,

Work on the 2nd and 3rd floor air handler and exhaust fans has been completed and the units were restarted today. Temperatures are in the process of stabilizing. 

The CNF will re-open the 2nd floor lab spaces at 8am Wed 1/18.

The first floor cleanroom work is proceeding as scheduled, HEPA filters changes are almost complete, the main air handler work is ongoing. There still is significant work to complete before the cleanroom will be ready to re-open. We can’t give an exact re-opening date at the moment, but if everything continues along without added delays we are optimistic of a mid to late Feb re-opening.  We will have a better idea of a targeted re-opening date in a couple weeks as a few more project milestones are completed. We will communicate that out to the research community once we get word.
