A brief description of the institution's indoor air quality plan, policy, and/or practices:
The University’s Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) department as well as the Facilities Department responds to air quality concerns on campus. The quality of the air inside a building is affected by a variety of comfort, physical, chemical and biological factors. Factors influencing the indoor air quality of a room or building include:
-Comfort issues (temperature, humidity, "stuffiness")
-Supply of fresh air to the building
-Accumulation of particulate, biological or chemical contaminants originating from within or outside the building
Concerns related to comfort issues or water intrusion or damage are directed to the Facilities Customer Service Center at 609-258-8000. Concerns related to unresolved water damage, suspected mold conditions, unresolved odors or other indoor air quality concerns are directed to the Environmental Health and Safety department (EHS) at 609-258-5294.
