If you speak with a Heating Plant employee, offer them thanks and congratulations! Heating Plant staff have been recognized by the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for their dedicated support of the SUNY Potsdam campus community.
Supervisor Rod Harvey arranged for half of his crew to be on-hand to receive the inaugural EAP Gold Stars award for the month of December. The award acknowledges the department's "quiet and patient behind-the-scenes support"
of campus operations and offers appreciation for an often anonymous job.
The Heating Plant is often our first call when our work areas are too cold or too warm, but the team responds round the clock to emergency troubleshooting and repair calls and manages a number of other less visible critical processes.
