Wet Bench Availability, 10/26-10/27

[Mary Tang]

Hi all --

Facilities will be performing repairs on one of two scrubber units 
serving our lab.  With half the scrubber capacity available, we will be 
shutting down some of the less-utilized wet benches in order to maintain 
exhaust levels on the high-use benches.

At 8 am on Friday, Oct. 26, the following wet benches will be drained 
and shutdown:  wbebeam, wbnitride, wbgen2, wbsilicide, wbmiscres, 
solvhood, and possibly wbmetal.

The scrubber to be repaired will be shut off later that morning.  
Exhaust will then be checked to ensure proper ventilation of the 
remaining wet benches. 

Repairs are expected to be complete on Saturday, Oct. 27.  We anticipate 
turning on most of the shutdown wet benches by Saturday afternoon/evening.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but trust that we will have a much 
more reliable (and quieter!) scrubber system after these repairs.

Your SNF Staff
