Hughston Engineering in South San Francisco, CA has begun to manufacture UVC decontamination units for use in the entertainment industry. Their current plan is to lease these at around $150/week. UVC refers to ultraviolet light with wavelengths between 200 – 280 nanometers (nm). Light in the UVC wavelength can be used for disinfecting water, sterilizing surfaces, destroying harmful micro-organisms in food products and in air. These units are made with consideration to keep users safe while using the machines and to kill the virus in a matter of seconds. The efficacy of the unit is based on intensity and proximity. Both are calculated for this application. The Local 16 Training Trust was given a Beta sample of the machine to use in the training facility. It has been used to decontaminate wireless mics, cell phones, keyboards, gloves, masks and myriad other items used in the video teaching studio. There have been no ill effects to any of the gear used in the machine.Īs we look forward, we must reimagine how we connect with people (artists, employees, board members, partners, audiences and communities), redesign programs and services, and reinvent business models. Along the way we must also reframe our place in community, serve as anchor institutions, and shift perspectives from beneficiary of recovery to partner in recovery.
