RNS Facilities Work Orders
- We want the RNS laboratories to function smoothly and as constructed. If something isn’t working properly (e.g., a leaking faucet, broken light switch) then please fill out a Facilities Work Order Request or tell the Stockroom Manager.
- When filling out the Work Order, choose “Maintenance” in the Job Type pull-down menu.
Lab Renovations
- Before undertaking any laboratory renovations, or before you submit any grants that might require laboratory renovations, you must first consult with (1) the Associate Dean of FNSM, (2) the CHO, and (3) the Assistant Director of Facilities, Engineering Services.
- Grant-related projects that involve laboratory renovations or permanent connections to RNS utilities need to be reviewed by the Assistant Director of Facilities before submitting your application. This review may help avoid painful problems trying to decide who pays for construction and utilities after the new equipment is on site.
- Please read and heed the information on the Facilities “Project Assistance” webpage.
Connecting to RNS Utilities
- If you do not have a license to be an electrician do not do any wiring.
- If you do not have a plumbing or pipe-fitting license do not tie into any of the water or gas lines.
- Facilities personnel are responsible for all connections to RNS utilities. Individuals who are not licensed in a particular trade may inadvertently make improper connections that can then result in others getting injured or in damage to RNS.
