A brief description of the institution's indoor air quality plan, policy, and/or practices:
Air quality is an important component of a healthy indoor environment. Facilities Services is responsible for
supplying quality indoor air by the introduction and distribution of adequate ventilation air, control of airborne
contaminants, and maintenance of acceptable temperature and relative humidity. Indoor air quality complaints
shall be handled jointly by Facilities Services and Risk Management.
In buildings where a building automation system (BAS) is in use, indoor air quality is actively monitored with air
quality sensors. In buildings without BAS, inspections are done on outside air dampers. Additionally, any
complaint related to indoor air quality is responded to promptly and appropriate measures are taken to mitigate any issues.
