The steam distribution system for the ISU campus requires periodic maintenance to run reliably and efficiently. Some of this required maintenance requires that the full system be shut down. This year’s outage is planned for 48 hours on Saturday, 5/14/22 and Sunday 5/15/22 (starting late Friday night, 5/13/22 and ending at midnight on Sunday, 5/15/22). We will plan to be back in full operation at midnight Sunday 5/15 but this could be delayed somewhat if we run into unforeseen issues during our repairs. Items affected by this outage include the following:
