Within funds available, a uniform level of maintenance for facilities and grounds is provided throughout the campus without charge. For departments not eligible for State-funded maintenance, services are provided on a recharge basis. In addition, departments seeking a level of maintenance higher than that provided to the rest of the campus must pay for additional services with their own funds. With few exceptions, departments must also fund alterations and installation and maintenance of equipment acquired specifically for their internal operations. Unusual damages or restoration costs resulting from removal of equipment or from other departmental activities must also be funded by the department.
Random modification can damage the appearance, operation, and serviceability of facilities.
This applies to all partitions, doors, windows, window coverings, floors, cabinets, shelving, bulletin boards, chalkboards, maps, lighting, antennae, and other equipment attached to a structure or to basic utility services including electricity, gas, steam, vacuum, compressed air, water, distilled water, and sewage and drainage lines. Departments are responsible for keeping building directories current. Lettering on doors and special signs are provided at cost upon request. Room occupants may hang pictures or charts weighing up to 10 pounds. However, departments may wish to consider installing bulletin boards to avoid damage to wall surfaces caused by tacks, staples, and tape.
