Notice: Fire Pump System Testing and Annual Fire Hydrant Testing

Published: July 30, 2026

On Monday, August 3, and Tuesday, August 4, 2026 the Department of Public Safety and Transportation will conduct regularly scheduled testing and maintenance of the fire pump systems in Residence Halls A and B, the Ruth S. Harley University Center and the Center for Recreation and Sports on our Garden City campus.

This testing is required by New York State and should have little or no impact on your day; you may notice water puddling in parking fields 2, 3, and 7.

In addition, the Department of Public Safety and Transportation will conduct mandatory annual testing of the fire hydrants on our Garden City campus from Monday, August 3 through Thursday, August 6, 2026.

Our partners in Facilities Management have asked us to remind you that a slight discoloration of the water may occur after the test. This is only a temporary condition; running the water for a minute or two will resolve it.
