Alert Update: SD Campus Employees REQUESTED to Stay Home Tomorrow, 10/25
===================================================================
SDG&E is requesting that we minimize energy consumption at our Sun facility based on where it is located on the power grid. Therefore, we will be following the energy curtailment criteria tomorrow, Thursday, 10/25.
A big THANKS goes to Alan Rein, Jason Rudolph and George Glover who have been working hard to keep our campus and its equipment up and running!
Therefore, employees in the San Diego area are REQUESTED to stay home tomorrow, 10/25, unless there is a particular need where you have to be on campus, check in with their managers and attend to their friends, families and homes. Any employees who are forced to evacuate from their homes should inform their managers; Sun offers emergency-relocation assistance to affected employees. We would prefer if employees stayed home unless they really need to come to the campus.
Sun's San Diego campus and its compute-resources lab are functioning. However, their status may change depending on the unpredictable nature of the wildfires. Therefore, employees should avoid coming in to the campus until the fires are under control. Employees planning to travel to the San Diego area should monitor news reports and contact constituents in the area to decide whether to delay their visits.
ALL SD employees are asked to Check In at Sun. Please re-Check in at Sun if your status changes.
THANKS TO ALL 200 OF YOU WHO HAVE!!
