Happy Greetings!

19 August 2009 Univeristy is not a commercial concern and therefore the ST under commercial construction would not be applicable.
You can provide the details and contractor can write a letter to dept stating that there is no liability since the univesity is a non profit organisation under dated acknwoeldgement.
