OP-3: Indoor Air Quality

Facilities manages all building HVAC systems. Any occupancy issues related to indoor air quality are called into Facilities and campus HVAC technicians respond with corrective action. In addition HVAC works to maintain the filters and equipment with an active preventative maintenance (PM) program.. Any hot and cold calls go directly to the Facilities Management and Services Department. http://www.csupomona.edu/~fpm/ Smoking is prohibited inside and twenty-five feet from all University and auxiliary organization facilities and in all vehicles owned or maintained by the University and auxiliary organizations. http://www.csupomona.edu/~policies/Administrative/smoke_free_work_place.html http://www.csupomona.edu/~ehs/asbestos_locations.htm Cal Poly has had an active program in place to minimize employee exposure to asbestos. As a part of that program, we have conducted and will continue to conduct inspections and tests to ensure that asbestos levels are within acceptable limits. http://www.csupomona.edu/~sustainability/energy.shtml Biotechnology Building 4 Laboratory Controls To improve energy efficiency and to enhance indoor air quality, we are installing a very sophisticated OptiNet Laboratory Aircuity Control System in the Biotechnology Building. The aircuity system will continuously monitor indoor air particulates and compounds in laboratory spaces and adjust the ventilation systems to optimize indoor air quality and energy conservation. The system is expected to save over $130K per year in energy savings.
