Trustees approve new facilities for Poly campus BY NANCY LEWIS Slat« Wrilsr Plans for a co-generation plant and an engineering building on campus were approved by the CSUC Board of 'Trustees Wednesday. The co-generation plant approved by the Board should be completed in February 1984 and will cost $3.2 million, said David Brooks, public affairs associate for the California State University and Col­ leges System. 'The plant, which produces both electricity and steam, has received $58,000 for its working drawings Completion of these plans has been set for September ^ 4 1982, said Brooks. The tentative location of the plant is in the court­ yard behind the existing boiler plant, which is located behind the Mechanical Engineering Building, said Peter Phillips, plant operations architecture coor­ dinator of administrative affairs. 'The plant is included in Poly’s 1982-83 tentative budget plans at a cost of $3.5 million, said Phillips. ’The engineering building might be included but the energy saving project will receive considerable prior­ ity, he added. ' - c Total project construction for the engineering building will cost $10 million and the completion date is set for September 1985, according to Brooks. “ This doesn’t mean there is funding for the building,” he added. According to Phillips, funds may come from the state but it is too early to tell. « Funds available at this time for the engineering building are $148,000, which should cover the drawing plans. Completion of the working drawings is set for W M lM if D«Hy—Lofi Oftte April 1983. 'The engineering building will be built on the north Bill McLeod, part-time engineering student works on the boiler system which will be replaced by a co- side of the architecture classroom buildings, said generatlonal plant, currently In the planning stages.
