RNAG Update

The Return to NOVA Advisory Group met again this week. The following summarizes two key points from the meeting.

• Ventilation: Recent guidance from the CDC noted that, in most cases, reoccupying buildings will not require new ventilation systems. However, as part of the preparations for our return, Facilities is taking the step to review and document the air handling, ventilation and air filters in all buildings to ensure that they meet current CDC and OSHA requirements. Because of the size, design and use/purpose of our buildings, as well as the ongoing HVAC maintenance work of NOVA’s dedicated Facilities staff, the typical NOVA building will meet the outlined requirements. 
• Review of Spaces: A timeline and calendar for meetings with departments and offices regarding their needs will be released within the next week. These meetings are anticipated to be held in May.
