Bockman Tank Removal Parking Request
This week, we continue the process of removing two fuel tanks from behind Bockman Hall. The work is happening directly in front of the north exit and also between the central and east wings, and we ask that everyone move their cars to the west lot of the OCC or the westernmost side of the Bockman lot. This will allow the contractors to set up the crane needed for the project. —Facilities and Operations
