An emergency domestic water outage was reported Jan. 27 at Medearis House, according to an email sent by Colorado State University Facilities Management.
The outage began after water pipes froze and burst inside the building due to low temperatures over the weekend, CSU Director of Crisis Communications and Public Information Officer Nik Olsen said.
Crews are currently working to repair the pipes, and domestic water service will remain unavailable until further notice. A timeline for repairs has not yet been established.
No other buildings or equipment have been affected at this time, according to Facilities Management.
“It’s not a classroom building, so there is minimal impact to university operations at this point,” Olsen said.
This is an ongoing situation. Updates will be provided as available.
