Dear Cañada Community,
As you know, smoke from the fires in Butte County has inundated
the Bay Area. The Air Quality Index worsened through the night and is now
considered unhealthy.
The campus is open and classes and offices are operating normally
at this time. However, please limit your outdoor exposure as much as
possible.
Please be sensitive to employees who are having difficulty today
due to the air quality. If you are not feeling well, please alert your
supervisor.
Our buildings have filtration systems that significantly reduce
your exposure to unhealthy air. However, it will not eliminate the smell of the
smoke. We are also reducing the amount of outside air coming into our
buildings in order to reduce smoke smell and particulates.
As a reminder, campus will be closed Saturday, November
10 through Monday November 12 in honor of Veteran’s Day. No day or
evening classes will be held during this time. We look forward to seeing you on
Tuesday, November 13 when regular hours will resume.
