If you notice flooding in the dark room, it is most likely due to a backed up floor drain. Please report flooding to Facilities Management at 858-534-2930 right away. Use supplies from the dark room spill kit to contain the flood. Place a note on the door warning others about the situation and to inform them that a service call has been placed.
