Situation Update

Last updated on Friday, May 3, 2013 1:40 PM EDT

Due to flooding on the second floor B wing, which has cascaded down to the first floor B wing, several first floor operations are temporarily out of service. Restoration is expected in the coming weeks and we should be fully operational no later than May 30. We apologize for the inconvenience and will let you know when the situation is resolved.
