Site ID:   INVK
DOMES No:  40150M001
Location:  Inuvik, Northwest Territories, Canada
Agency:    Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), Geodetic Survey Division

Further to IGSSTATION Mail 4987, INVK is still off-line. The building housing our GPS receiver and communications equipment severely overheated due to a heating system malfunction. It appears some of our equipment may have been damaged by temperatures exceeding 70 C. There will likely be a loss of data if the receiver has been damaged. We are waiting for our local contact to determine which devices need to be replaced. I will advise when we expect the site to be back on-line.
