Steam shutdown cancelled ... building hot water and temperature control OK

SNF Lab Members and Allen Building Occupants:

As you know, the building steam had originally been scheduled for an
emergency shutdown today that was going to affect domestic hot water,
clean room temperature control, etc. It was originally scheduled to
happen today from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.

I was surprised to see no activity when I wandered by and called the
project manager. Apparently, yesterday some of our colleagues in a
nearby building asked that this shutdown be canceled. Unfortunately,
nobody thought to notify us.

As a result, all utilities are available today and temperature and
humidity control are running normally. I just checked and the
temperature in the lithography aisle near the SVC coat is 20.4 C and
20.8 C near the ASML and have not fluctuated over the past couple of hours.

We should have been notified of this change in advance, but I hope that
this somewhat tardy announcement will allow some of you to get some work
done today, should you so desire, rather than losing a full day.

It is my understanding that the shutdown has been re-scheduled for
Saturday, December 1, but expect that further announcements will be
forthcoming.

Thanks for your attention,

John
