The Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL) is currently closed until further notice due to a chilled water leak.

Research in EMSL is currently paused until the leak is resolved. EMSL and PNNL facilities staff are working diligently to resolve the issue. We apologize for the disruption.

As a result, the following resources are currently down:

  • Tahoma – high-performance computer
  • NEXUS – EMSL’s user program portal
  • Aurora - data file storage
  • Science Central – EMSL’s new technology platform that provides users with access to data

More information will be shared, soon, including an estimate for when the building will reopen and normal operations will resume. Those with questions should direct them to respective integrated research platform leaders:

Thank you for your patience.
