Summary

The facility failed to maintain the automatic sprinkler system free of obstructions in one of two smoke zones. During an observation on April 23, 2025, between 10:15 AM and 10:20 AM, it was noted that several sprinkler heads were covered with debris. Specifically, debris was found on sprinkler heads in the Laundry Room's Dryer Chase Room, Wash Machine Room, and Laundry Folding Room, with four sprinkler heads affected in the latter. This deficiency was confirmed during an exit interview with the Chief Executive Officer and Director of Campus Services on the same day at 1:15 PM.

Plan Of Correction

The Sprinklers in the laundry room, dryer chase, and wash machine room were cleaned. Maintenance and Laundry was educated on how to complete cleaning on the sprinkler heads in the laundry room. Sprinklers will be audited weekly for 4 weeks, then monthly for 3 months, and then quarterly following. Results will be reported to the Quality Assurance Steering Committee.
