A brief description of the institution's indoor air quality plan, policy, and/or practices:
The indoor air quality policy from the University Safety Manual is as follows: 4.6 INDOOR AIR QUALITY Air quality is an important component of a healthy indoor environment. Facilities Services is responsible for supplying quality indoor air by the introduction and distribution of adequate ventilation air, control of airborne contaminants, and maintenance of acceptable temperature and relative humidity. Indoor air quality complaints shall be handled jointly by Facilities Services and Risk Management. In buildings where a building automation system (BAS) is in use, indoor air quality is actively monitored with air quality sensors. In buildings without BAS, inspections are done on outside air dampers. Additionally, any complaint related to indoor air quality results in full air quality testing and is responded to promptly.
