Dear Å·²©ÓÎÏ·¹ÙÍø Illinois University Community,
Å·²©ÓÎÏ·¹ÙÍø Illinois University values the feedback of our campus neighbors and is aware of a reported smell from campus construction.
The Illinois Capital Development Board (CBD) is addressing Å·²©ÓÎÏ·¹ÙÍø Illinois University’s electrical infrastructure by replacing aluminum cables with new copper cabling. The project will be completed in mid-August.
Å·²©ÓÎÏ·¹ÙÍø is working closely with its vendor, Aggreko, and has been informed that the work zone complies with EPA guidelines and does not emit harmful levels of emissions.
The University will continue to monitor this project to ensure the safety and well-being of the community.
We appreciate your understanding of this critical infrastructure maintenance project.
