雪紧急情况

A snow emergency may be declared when 3 or more inches of snow have fallen or are forecast to fall on campus, as reported by the National Weather Service and/or other law enforcement weather res我们的ces.

在雪灾期间, community members must move their vehicles from snow emergency lots to parking areas permitted by 483年政策.

在雪灾期间, vehicles must be moved to:

• Covered levels of the P29 and P32 parking structures (NOTE: The uncovered, top levels of the structures are not exempt from the policy and must be vacated during a snow emergency.)
• 安五世. Nicholson Student Apartments lot
• 乔治T. 马修斯公寓
• P35停车场

Vehicles left in any other Main Campus lots during a snow emergency will be impounded at the owner's expense. 大学不会对以下行为进行罚款 483年政策 违反, but retrieval of impounded vehicles will require payment of a towing fee and may also involve storage fees, 按日收费.  Please contact Byer's Wrecker Service for current fees.

Snow emergency policy takes precedence over all overnight parking designations except those in the f我们的 exempt parking areas. Hence, all vehicles in non-exempt overnight spaces, including those in P1, P3, P11 must be moved during snow emergencies.

Snow emergencies will typically be in effect from 10:00 pm on the day they are announced to 6:00 am the next day. Campus administrators may adjust start and end times as weather conditions and other relevant considerations dictate.

University personnel will make every effort to announce snow emergencies well in advance of the deadline to remove vehicles from designated snow emergency lots. Multiple channels of communication will be used to broadcast these announcements, including:

• Text messages to registered system users
• 大学电邮
• University homepage, News at OU, 十大菠菜台子 website articles.
• University social media site postings
• 数字信号

The declaration of a snow emergency will not necessarily indicate that classes have been canceled or that the campus has been closed. Campus-wide cancellations and closure decisions will be made independently as outlined in 482年政策.

违反 483年政策 将被严格执行. Once vehicles are impounded, no appeal process will be available.

Campus community members planning to leave their vehicles in overnight parking areas for extended periods should ensure that their vehicles are not left in designated snow emergency lots. Examples of such absences include but are not limited to:

• 周末
• 假期
• 假期
• Student-athlete and athletics fan travel for competition

If campus community members are on campus later than 10:00 pm when heavy snowfall is possible, they should ensure that their vehicles are not left in designated snow emergency lots. 这包括:

• Students, faculty, staff utilizing Kresge 图书馆
• Students and faculty working in laboratories
