Does the project reduce or eliminate a health or safety risk? Yes. The replacement of the current ice rink and equipment will eliminate the risk of contamination and potential injury. The slow failure of the system is allowing soft spots to form around the rink which is a potential hazard to anyone skating on the ice. Also, the old equipment increases the potential failure of this system and the R-22 coolant is toxic to humans. The R-22 coolant also depletes the earth's ozone layer and this type of coolant is being phased out, under federal regulation and due to the lack of availability, the cost of purchasing R-22 have been increasing. 2. In your opinion, what is the current condition of the facility? Poor. As stated by the borough, there is an imminent failure of the floor and chiller. The ice plant was installed in 1991 and it is believed that the current system has a life span of 20-30 years. The plant has operated well for many years but has started to show signs of outliving its useful life. It can be assumed that problems will continue, and the magnitude of the problems will most likely increase. 3. Does the project improve accessibility compliance? No. 4. How old is the facility since original construction? 21-30 years 5. Does the project replace an existing facility? No. The Carlson Center will not be replaced. The intent is to keep access to ice in the Carlson Center for 20-25 years by replacing the existing ice rink equipment with a portable rink which we believe can be done at a fraction of the cost of other ideas which have been discussed . 6. What is the status of project funding? No funding sources have been identified for this project, but we believe there are many user groups that would be willing to provide funding support if ice availability could be more consistent. Current users are afraid to sign up for regular ice during the winter sports season due to ongoing event cancelations and significant difficulties trying to reschedule lost ice due to these cancelations. We spoke with largest youth hockey organization, Hockey Club Fairbanks, which currently has over 500 participants, and they indicated increase used of ice would be assured as long as ice wasn't always cancelled for events.

    ICE HOCKEY PACKET # 23 INSTRUCTIONS This Learning Packet has two parts: (1) text to read and (2) questions to answer. The text describes a particular sport or physical activity, and relates its history, rules, playing techniques, scoring, notes and news. The Response Forms (questions and puzzles) check your understanding and apprecia- tion of the sport or physical activity. INTRODUCTION Ice hockey is a physically demanding sport that often seems brutal and violent from the spectator’s point of view. In fact, ice hockey is often referred to as a combination of blood, sweat and beauty. The game demands athletes who are in top physical condition and can maintain nonstop motion at high speed. HISTORY OF THE GAME Ice hockey originated in Canada in the 19th cen- tury. The first formal game was played in Kingston, Ontario in 1855. McGill University started playing ice hockey in the 1870s. W. L. Robertson, a student at McGill, wrote the first set of rules for ice hockey. Canada’s Governor General, Lord Stanley of Preston, offered a tro- phy to the winner of the 1893 ice hockey games. This was the origin of the now-famed Stanley Cup. Ice hockey was first played in the U. S. in 1893 at Johns Hopkins and Yale universities, respec- tively. The Boston Bruins was America’s first NHL hockey team. Ice hockey achieved Olym- pic Games status in 1922. Physical Education Learning Packets #23 Ice Hockey Text © 2006 The Advantage Press, Inc.

    UNIVERSITY of ALASKA President’S Report

    UNIVERSITY of ALASKA President’s Report 2006-2007 “The Next Thousand Days” Letter from UA President Mark Hamilton The University of Alaska stands at the brink of tremendous opportunity. The next thousand days takes us roughly to our 50th anniversary of Alaska’s statehood, achieved in 1959. As we head toward this celebration, I ask this question: Have we done all that we can to make the 49th star on the American flag the best that it can be? We’ve made great progress, but we must do more. We’re a state blessed with an abundance of natural resources, from oil and gas to fish and minerals. Have we made the most of these resources, providing a maximum benefit to the Alaskans who live here? Are we preparing our young people to take the legacy jobs that will exist long after a new gas pipeline has been constructed? The next thousand days present an awesome opportunity to reflect on the past and ensure a bright future. At UA this past year we awarded a record 3,223 degrees and certificates – the most ever in a single year. Public confidence in our state university system has never been stronger. More high school graduates than ever are choosing to attend college, and they are choosing UA. The UA Scholars program has been wildly successful, beyond anything I had hoped for when it was first introduced in 1999. In short, we’re on a roll. We have many goals over the next thousand days. They roughly fall into one of these three categories: • Workforce Development – Strengthening programs aimed at producing an educated and trained workforce for Alaska,

New Student Orientation — and Extended Orientation — will be your introduction to student life at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. You’ll learn about the resources available to you, begin to navigate campus and meet the faculty and staff here who will teach and support you. We hope you’ll make a few friends and have some fun along the way. Our team of orientation leaders is here to guide you as you make UAF your home. These experienced students know the ins and outs of UAF and are ready to answer your questions. Thank you for choosing UAF. Welcome to Nanook Nation.TM GET STARTED We’ll be using several platforms for orientation activities. The icon next to each activity indicates which platform to use. If you aren’t sure, ask your orientation leader where to access an activity. Go to www.uaf.edu/orientation/ to access these platforms and activities. Zoom is a video conference platform. You’ll use it for many orientation activities — and probably many of your classes too. Remo is a group video conference platform similar to Zoom, but with added features to help you connect with others. Discord is a chat platform where you’ll get information, connect with your group and have a way to meet with other students.

    An Ice Rink Refrigeration System Based on CO2 As Secondary Fluid in Copper Tubes

    E:369 An Ice Rink Refrigeration System based on CO2 as Secondary Fluid in Copper Tubes by Khuram Shahzad Master of Science Thesis Master Program of Sustainable Energy Engineering 2006 Department of Energy Technology Royal Institute of Technology Stockholm, Sweden CO2 as Secondary Fluid in a Copper Tube System ABSTRACT This report is a study of the use of copper tubes with CO2 as heat transfer fluid in ice rink applications. Copper tubes can be rolled rather easily up to the required length which decreases installation cost and simplifies the procedure. A test ice rink was built at IUC Ref Centre, Katrineholm with copper tubes. FEMLAB and EES are two softwares that were used for analysis. The comparison between 12.7 mm diameter copper tubes with and without plastic foil cover, 9.5 mm diameter copper tubes with and without plastic foil cover, 21.3 mm diameter steel pipes and 25 mm diameter plastic pipes is presented in the report. The reason to have plastic foil over copper tubes is to avoid the minor risk of chemical corrosion. Furthermore the foil serves as mechanical wear protection as well, which in this case could appear if rubbing would occur due to thermal expansion and contraction. It is found that 12.7 mm copper tube with plastic foil is good choice in terms of heat transfer. At rated heat flux of 100 W/m2 and with a pitch of 100 mm, it is 0.18 oC better than 9.5 mm copper tube with plastic foil. This report includes the investigation which shows that there is no danger of movement of copper tubes inside the rink bed due to thermal expansion and contraction during operation.
