Update: Roof Repair Work at the 5000 Building

Dear College  Community, 

The health and safety of all members of our college community are a priority at Shoreline. In response to concerns and questions raised about health risks related to the roof repair work at the 5000 building, Shoreline engaged the services of PBS to test toxicity levels throughout the facility.  The results of the onsite inspection indicated that, based on the Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) readings in and around the building, the odor created by the adhesive is non-toxic.   

The full report is available immediately, upon request, from the Facilities Department. A web link to the report will be provided as soon as it is posted.   

We understand that occupants of the 5000 building may still experience a reaction to the odor.  In these cases, please work with your supervisor and HR to explore alternative work options, including relocating to a different facility. 

Please contact Facilities if you have any additional questions or concerns.

Acting Vice President for Business and Administrative Services
