The construction of the HKS spectrometer and the new hypernuclear spectrometer system has already started in 2000. The present schedule for the construction is shown in Table 10. It is the present plan to ship the HKS spectrometer system from Japan to Jlab by the end of 2002. Detectors are under construction by the collaboration groups and will also be prepared by then.
It is planned that the spectrometer system will be assembled in the Test Lab. prior to the installation in Hall C. The collaboration sets the due date ready to accept a beam March 2003.
