  <Title>Update on Utilities Outages and Improvements</Title>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>Dear Colleagues,</span></p>
    <p><span>As you are aware, we experienced three significant utility outages on campus over the past month. While some of these outages were out of our control, we do want to share additional information about what happened and the steps that we are taking to minimize interruptions in the future. </span></p>
    <p><span>The campus-wide water outage on May 31, and the building-specific outages that followed, was caused by an equipment failure. In addition to repairing the parts that failed, we are assessing our entire system. Our ongoing Utility Upgrades Project will also include several upgrades to our system over the summer, all of which should reduce the number of water main breaks we experience on campus. </span></p>
    <p><span>The recent campus electrical outages on June 9 and 16 were both precipitated by events off campus. We are in regular communication with BGE about improving power reliability to campus. BGE is installing a third electrical feeder to support the campus, which should be completed by December 2023. In the meantime, BGE initiated a comprehensive inspection of our entire distribution system and is trimming trees along the distribution route.  </span></p>
    <p><span>We regret the inconvenience and delays caused by these interruptions. We take these outages seriously and are working to streamline our response processes so we can share information with you quickly and efficiently. We also appreciate your patience as we complete necessary maintenance and improvements across campus this summer on these and other systems. You can learn more about our current utilities projects on the </span><a href="https://fm.umbc.edu/the-campus-utilities-upgrades-project/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>Facilities Management</span></a><span> website. </span></p>

  <Title>COVID-19 Campus Update</Title>
  <Tagline>June 17, 2022</Tagline>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>Dear UMBC Community,</span></p>
    <br><p><span>Thank you for your help closing out our spring semester as we weathered another COVID-19 surge in Maryland. We appreciate all of the teams that have continued to respond to cases on campus and are also busy planning for the fall semester. We are pleased to share some broad updates at this time.</span></p>
    <br><p><span>At present, masking remains required in classrooms.  We continue to monitor community risk levels, and if campus or community infection rates change, we will adjust these health and safety measures as necessary.</span></p>
    <br><p><span>Moving forward into the fall semester, all residential students will be required to remain </span><a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/stay-up-to-date.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>up to date</span></a><span> on their COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccination is strongly recommended for all other eligible students, faculty, and staff. Unvaccinated residential students must</span><span> have an approved </span><a href="https://covid19.umbc.edu/vaccine-exemption/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>medical or religious exemption</span></a><span> or a completed waiver on file and will receive more information on this process soon. </span></p>
    <br><p><span>We now know that COVID-19 will continue to affect our operations for some time. It will remain essential that as many community members as possible are up to date with their vaccination  as scientific experts are clear that a high community vaccination rate is the most effective way to reduce significant illness from COVID-19. We will be offering on-campus vaccination clinics in the fall semester for booster shots and initial vaccinations for new students. </span></p>
    <br><p><span>In addition to these clinics, we plan to continue other health and safety protocols in the fall. We will distribute free high-quality masks across campus and will be a place where community members are encouraged to wear masks to protect themselves. We will continue to monitor community risk levels, and if campus or community infection rates rise, we will increase these health and safety measures when needed. While most community members who test positive will isolate off campus, we will continue to provide support for those that need it. We ask that all community members monitor themselves for symptoms and stay home when they are sick. </span></p>
    <br><p><span>We will share additional details and updates before the start of the fall semester. We wish you a summer that is restful and relaxing.</span></p>
