Groupwise Upgrade

Posted on by

We will be upgrading Groupwise on Friday, May 17 beginning around noon.  ALL components of Groupwise will be upgraded: Groupwise WebAccess, Groupwise Mobility Services (mobile email), Novell Messenger, the Groupwise Post Office and Domain.  Groupwise services will be down after noon on Friday, May 17 but incoming emails will queue in our Barracuda Spam Filter and will be delivered once the Post Office upgrade is complete.  

Since this is major version upgrade, it may mean your mobile Groupwise settings will have to be adjusted.  If so, instructions will be posted on the employee website to set up your mobile mail app.

For internal Groupwise users, a new client will be available. We will uninstall Groupwise via ZENworks and reinstall the new client via a Groupwise Bundle.

If you have any questions, please call me on x334.

INDOT Asks Motorists to Prepare for August 21 Solar Eclipse

Posted on by

Plan ahead for best viewing and avoid traffic congestion

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Department of Transportation officials urge motorists to plan for traffic congestion expected to occur in southern Indiana before and after the total solar eclipse on August 21. Approximately 200 million people live within a day’s drive of the total eclipse path. Many will be on the road to get a closer view.
INDOT officials offer the following advice:
  • Barred for traffic congestion before and after the August 21 eclipse.

Interstate 69, U.S. 41, and U.S. 231 are expected to experience increased traffic in southbound lanes before the event as caravans of motorists head for Western Kentucky where the moon’s full eclipse of the sun can be viewed within a 70-mile-wide swath encompassing Hopkinsville, Paducah, and Madison, KY. After the event, transportation planners anticipate a “mass exodus” from total eclipse regions.  Expect heavier than normal northbound traffic on these routes.
Interstate 65 will also see increased traffic going to—and returning from—total eclipse vantage points that begin at Bowling Green, KY and extend beyond Nashville, TN.  Again, southbound traffic is expected to rise before the solar eclipse. Northbound lanes will experience congestion after the eclipse.

  • If you want to drive toward the eclipse path for better viewing, allow extra time.

If skies are clear, August 21’s solar eclipse promises to be an unforgettable celestial phenomenon, the first that has been visible to all 48 contiguous states in several hundred years.  Beyond the total eclipse’s 70-mile-wide path—which arcs across 14 states from Oregon to South Carolina—a partial eclipse will provide a sky show that becomes more and more pronounced the closer spectators get to the sun’s full black-out. The partial eclipse can be well seen throughout Indiana, but traveling south improves the view. For example, Evansville is situated to experience a partial eclipse of 99 percent and Jeffersonville will see 96 percent. This mid-day event waxes and wanes over a period of several hours.

  • Make plans now for overnight accommodations—overnight camping is prohibited at rest areas.
  • If planning to view the eclipse, wear safety glasses. They are available on-line or from many popular retailers costing from $2 to $70; some are being given away by organizations.  DO NOT look at the partial eclipse without proper filtration.

Annual CCS Drug Screen

Posted on by
Our annual CCS drug screen will be held on Wednesday 07/12/17 at our Greenwood office.

Inside Plant personnel and T&M technicians will need to report at 8:00 am.

We will be serving doughnuts and drinks during this time, but we will NOT be conducting a Quarterly Meeting on this date. Our 3rd Quarter Safety Meeting will be held on Thursday 09/07/2017.
All employees will need to complete annual screening, gather any paperwork being distributed, and will then be expected to report to their assigned job sites.
If you have any questions, please contact your Project Superintendent immediately. This is a mandatory testing procedure.
Thank you.
