Dear UIS Campus Community,
As we continue to experience extreme heat this week, City Water, Light & Power (CWLP) has notified UIS of a potential Maximum Generation Warning. This is due to the increased demand for electricity and a potential energy supply shortage from the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), the regional electric grid operator for the central United States.
Public Affairs Center Plumbing Infrastructure Renovation Project
Enhancing a Cornerstone of Campus Life
The Public Affairs Center (PAC) is currently undergoing a multi-year infrastructure renovation project to update its aging plumbing systems and ensure its continued use as a vibrant space for academic learning, cultural events, and community engagement. The project began in June 2025 and will conclude by April 2027.
Please be advised that Parking Lot A 鈥淣orth鈥� will be closed for the duration of the Library Commons construction project.
This project is set to begin within the next 30 days, and Parking Lot A 鈥淣orth鈥� will be utilized by the construction contractor for their work trailers, material storage, staging, and other construction operations.
Your patience and understanding are very much appreciated.

As part of the necessary plumbing infrastructure renovation project that has begun this summer in the Public Affairs Center, Facilities & Services is working in collaboration with multiple campus partners to ensure a smooth transition process in operations. From June 2025 to September 2026, several units currently located in the PAC will temporarily pause or relocate their operations to other campus spaces due to the drilling and pipe excavation activities.
Greetings Campus Community,
We want to inform you that Facilities & Services will be working on the 4th聽floor of UHB this week, which may cause disruptions with noise and lingering dust in certain areas. Work will be primarily focused on room 4023 but may affect nearby hallways. Signage will be posted to guide you if any detours around the work area are necessary.
Your patience and understanding are appreciated as we work to enhance our campus learning spaces.

Ongoing Projects
Library Commons: Construction operations will begin in the coming weeks. The north section of parking lot A will be closed within the next 30 days to serve as the site for contractor work trailers, material storage, staging, and other construction-related operations. Visit our dedicated Library Commons webpage for the latest updates.
A critical plumbing repair will be performed this week on the first floor of Brookens - both classroom and library sides. Crews will be replacing a sewage pump, which requires shutting off water for the entire first floor. This will affect restrooms, sinks, and water fountains on the first floor only. The water service will continue normally,聽and facilities will be available on all other floors.
Work is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, May 13 and wrap up on Thursday, May 15.聽
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we strive to main our campus facilities.
