IMPORTANT: DO NOT DISTURB<br />
CEILINGS<br />
Please do not tamper with the blown-on<br />
soundproofing (acoustical) ceiling material<br />
in Mesa Apartments. While most of the<br />
ceiling material in Mesa <strong>Housing</strong> contains<br />
no asbestos, a recent survey of acoustical<br />
ceiling material in Central Mesa <strong>Housing</strong><br />
conducted by EH&S resulted in a low<br />
percentage of asbestos. Any asbestoscontaining<br />
material in Mesa <strong>Housing</strong> has<br />
been encapsulated, as specified by law, to<br />
avoid potential disturbances. Although the<br />
acoustical ceiling contains a low percentage<br />
of asbestos, it is important to maintain<br />
the ceilings in good condition. The ceilings<br />
are inspected by <strong>UC</strong> <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> EH&S staff<br />
during annual housing inspections. If you<br />
have any concerns with your apartment,<br />
please contact the office at 858.822.3291.<br />
