WSUI, KSUI studios evacuated

The studios of Iowa Public Radio stations WSUI and KSUI were evacuated Saturday afternoon as a safety precaution under supervision of the Iowa City Police Department. The Clinton Street Building is in a critical area which may be adversely affected by flood waters in the next few days. Local broadcasting from the Iowa City stations has ceased; however, KSUI, 91.7 FM is currently carrying the Iowa Public Radio news and classical service regularly aired on WOI-FM and will do so until local operations can resume. WSUI ceased broadcast operations on Friday when flood waters reached the transmitter site in
Hills. The station will resume normal broadcast operations as soon as possible.
