  • Techs are doing various jobs for Steve Lassiter
  • Helping with controls
  • Preparing SHMS conductor samples ans spools for shipment to France
  • Ordering materials for the Anaconda repair
  • The A-can tested out OK. It may be stung this week

• Mike Fowler - SOTR
  • The contractor is making visible progress in assembling the SHMS carriage. Many pieces are being welded to the structure.
  • A six day per week, 10 hour per day work schedule has started in order to accelerate progress.

• Mike Fowler - Engineering

  • Gary working on magnet gas return lines
  • Mike is continuing as SOTR
  • Engineers are supervising magnet contracts

• Howard - 12 GeV
  • An intermediate design review was held for Q2/Q3. The review went well and the vendor is happy to proceed with those magnets
  • For the dipole, the vendor will now promise a magnet that will work up to 80% of design current (previous was 60%). This is achieved by putting the conductor with the best properties in the places with the highest stresses.
  • Vendor has agreed to measure conductor properties at 4K. Previous tests were done at LN2 temperature.
  • We are under pressure to provide a continuous presence at the magnet vendor in France.

• Joe Beaufait
  • Changing power strips in racks that were flooded. Should be done this week.

• Bert Manzlak
  • Reminder to read an signed the the revised GRWP (SAF801KD). [1]
  • A lock out tagout refresher is mandatory for those with that training.
  • There were no recordable injuries for June. Everyone is reminded to report even minor injuries and events to medical services.
  • Work on corrector magnets and shielding for the Compton beamline
  • work on cryo line, detector shield hut and chamber gas lines for SHMS.
  • Eric Sun working on dipole FEA
  • Paul Brindza will visit Q2/3 vendor this week.

• Joe Beaufait
  • Needed to reorder the clamps for the HMS cable tray cover.
  • Work on replacing long power strips in damaged racks.
