Annual electrical substation maintenance at the Oshawa campus is scheduled for Saturday, July 4, from approximately 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

During the maintenance period all buildings at Oshawa campus will be closed and no telecommunication or computer service will be available. As a result, the Durham College website, intranet, Banner/FAST access, MyCampus, DCMail and DC Connect will be unavailable during this period. Work will begin at midnight and continue until 6 a.m. to shut down the IT systems.

There will be no general outbound or inbound telephone service available at the Oshawa or Whitby campuses.  The only exception is 911 service which will continue to be available at the Whitby campus and the Security desk at the Oshawa campus.

Other locations such as Pickering, Uxbridge, Bowmanville, Port Hope and Oshawa Taunton will retain normal telephone service but there will be no internet access from these satellite locations.

This outage is required to perform all of the necessary preventative maintenance to ensure continued safe and reliable power to Durham College.
