Facilities Management
Dear Campus Community,
Following up on the previous message issued on Wednesday, August 13th 2025 (Legionella Test – Marshak Cooling tower), the cooling towers located at 181 convent avenue were tested for the presence of legionella bacteria.
We are pleased to inform that the test results were negative for legionella bacteria. This confirms that the cooling tower system is in compliance with The New York CITY Department of Health and mental Hygiene (NYC DOHMH) requirements and poses no health risk to building occupants or the community.
We will continue to conduct routine inspections, cleaning, disinfection, and water sampling of all cooling towers to ensure compliance with the NYCDOHMH.
Thank you for your attention and for supporting our efforts to maintain a safe environment for all.
