The Homewood Office of Facilities Management will shut down air conditioning in the Milton S. Eisenhower Library for one hour on Thursday, August 13, as part of a university-wide energy audit. This activity is a mandatory test for participants in the Demand Load Response Program, which was developed to reduce peak electrical loads on the Pennsylvania-Jersey-Maryland electric grid system and which pays the university to reduce electric consumption on days when maximum electric use threatens to overload the grid.

The outage is scheduled to last one hour and will start between 12:30 and 2 pm. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes and appreciate your cooperation.

Please contact Plant Operations at 410.516.8063 or facilities@jhu.edu if you have questions regarding this matter.
