The CFA-671 Boilers currently supply steam heat to buildings CFA-601, CFA-623 and CFA-674. Various problems such as steamline leaks/repairs, CFA-671 structural problems, age of the boilers, fuel costs, and upcoming 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 63 Subpart DDDDD regulations has led to the decision to replace the steam heat in these buildings with electric heat. The on-site air emissions associated with fuel burning equipment would be reduced with the inactivation of these boilers.
