1993] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 359 Approve Purchase of Condensate Return Polishers for Steam Plant, Chicago Campus The president of the University requested emergency approval for the purchase of and installation of four condensate return polishers for the Steam Plant at the Chicago campus. The condensate return polishers are used to filter condensate from the main steam distribution system. These remove impurities from the water prior to entry into the boilers where it is converted to steam. Three of the four polishers are presently out of service. All four have reached the end of their life cycle and need to be replaced. Emergency approval was sought due to the fact that 10-12 weeks will be required for delivery and installation. Since there was no board meeting in August, approval was sought at this time in order to provide time to install the equipment prior to the peak heating season and to ensure no disruption of steam service to all buildings dependent on this source. These include buildings on the campus as well as buildings at West Side Veterans Administration Hospital and at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center. On motion of Mr. Grabowski, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Grabowski; no, none. This report was received for record.
