Critique of Subsections VI.4 - .6:  The Committee completed the remainder of Section VI with similar comments from last weeks meeting.  The Recommendation and Suggestion changes follow.

 

q       Suggestion 6.4 a:  That the thermostats continue to be monitored on a regular basis to provide comfortable temperatures in classrooms.  Areas consistently too cold or too hot should be reported to Maintenance.

Change:  Delete.

q       Recommendation 6.4.2 C:  That the Victoria College Preventive and Deferred Maintenance Plan continue to conduct a formalized annual evaluation with minutes and results stored in the Director’s office.

q       Recommendation 6.4.2 C:  That the Victoria College Technology Plan continue to be evaluated annually with the results stored in the Technology Director’s office.

Change:  Delete.

q       Suggestion 6.4.3 a:  That the plan needs to indicate clearly where information about each hazardous substance is located so that it can be quickly accessed in case of emergency.  The plan does not specify where to find information about the hazardous materials stored in each building nor does it contain the instructions on how to treat emergencies related to each substance.  Plans for posting of this information are currently being reviewed.

Change:  That the plan needs to indicate clearly where information about each hazardous substance is located so that the information and the Material Safety Data Sheets can be quickly accessed in case of emergency.  Add the remainder of the suggestion to the narrative.
