Steam will not be available on most of the campus. Many areas will not have hot water, heat, and/or air conditioning.

Furthermore, between 6 a.m. and noon on Saturday, May 18, 2013, the annual Black Start and Island Mode Test is scheduled to be performed.  There will be several electrical power interruptions during this time, and some portions of the campus will not have electrical power and/or air conditioning.
