<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Hi all,<div><br></div>
    <div>There are a few things I need to pass on about the cleaning crews.<br><div><br></div>
    <div>I'm continuing to try to schedule the cleaning company (ABM) to set a monthly schedule for the daytime mopping of the seating and office areas of the ILSB research labs. I've told them repeatedly not to enter research offices in the evenings. </div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The cleaning people will not supply paper towels to the research labs. I can get them delivered to the loading dock and then get them distributed to the the environmental lab (111) and rooms 217, 314 and 414.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>There may be a change in distributor for paper towels and their dispensers in the future which do not require batteries, but for now ABM does not supply batteries for the current dispensers in the labs.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>If you need a key for opening the paper towel dispensers, please let me know. I distributed over two dozen when we opened the facility, but there's a good chance that they may have disappeared or are tucked in a drawer somewhere, not knowing what it's for. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Likewise, ABM  does not supply the research labs hand soap. (this was one of the overwhelming citations during our lab inspections), I'm trying to get this changed, but I'm not certain I can get this done, for now this is a either department or a lab expense. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Thank you for your aattention.</div>
