UNM has very old smoke detectors in the dormitories. We struck a deal JUST this
morning to fund a project to sprinkle all dorms and replace a 20 year old
detection and alarm system. If you have any insight on how well your project is
going I would be interested in knowing any details for our project
justification. Congradulations on your project.
