If power is lost, will Facilities Operations immediately supply generators?
• NO . Facilities Operations only has three small emergency generators that function to power up life safety systems for a building that is offline. • Existing building generators are designed to run 2- 3 days. • The capability of re-fueling is limited. • Larger generators may be brought in for isolated incidents within 4-6 hours. • In a widespread weather event Facilities leverages their position with Gregory Poole to get priority assistance when needed. • Facilities Operations has identified vendors up to four states away that can bring in needed equipment during a disruption.
