The announcement includes various informative updates on project area, construction flow, reserved parking and timeframes of work. This also serves as opportunity to remind everyone about safety zone protocolsand emergency contact information.  \nThe Notice of Construction is formatted to plug-in to the newly revamped construction update website that is in progress.  \nPOMONA CAMPUS STANDARDS & DIVISION 00 & 01 SPECS  \nNew Campus Standards. WesternU Capital Planning & Construction has newly introduced Campus Standards for all the Non-Creative Design elements of the University. Capital construction infrastructure focuses on repair cost, maintenance time as well as product availability for when project is complete and handed-off to Facilities maintenance.  \nCampus standards promote lowered cost and improved aesthetics for a unified University campus feel, while also improving serviceability and reduced stocking/ storage issues.  \nNew DIV. 00 & 01 Specifications. Divisions 00 & 01 Specificationsin the CSI Master format of Industry best practices has been developed for implementation by WesternU’s Capital Planning & Construction program.  \nThe newly introduced General Conditions & General Requirements establishes contractual needs for projects that become part of the official contract.
