    FYI
    I believe this is consistent with other recent messages from me.

    | Hello,
    | 
    | ===============
    | 
    | I was told that the C3 inflector/C5 magnet along with the Tandem-to-Booster
    | and Linac-to-Booster lines have been installed, aligned and surveyed.  
    | Everything
    | seems to be "on schedule" if not slightly earlier and there has been no 
    | major
    | problem so far.
    | 
    | The beampipe is being pumped down ... and baking may start later this 
    | evening
    | and may finish by next Tue./Wed.
    | 
    | One caveate as commented from L. Ahrens earlier ... since we broke apart the
    | system (around C3/C5) and found some dislocated pins, now though we have
    | hopefully put them back into places, things could be different from 
    | before ...
    | 
    | ===================
    | 
    | This year's (FY2004) 27 week run scenario for the 4 RHIC expts. (no pp2pp)
    | has been approved (by Tom Kirk) as follows :
    | 
    | 5 +14 weeks of 200 GeV Au+Au  
    | 5 week development run for polarized protons
    | 
    | This in principle is pending on the approval of the FY04 President's 
    | budget by the Congress
    | as we are now in the "Continuing Budget" stage (hopefully not for too 
    | long).
    | 
    | I understand that if 300 inverse-microbarn can be reached earlier enough 
    | and more funding is
    | available,  Au-Au run at  63 GeV and more proton polarization may be 
    | possible.
    | 
    | ====================
    | 
    | Last but not the least,  the first Time meeting will be on Oct. 21 at 
    | 1:30 pm (Synder Hall)
    | --- traditional time and place --- just about when NSRL begins to 
    | prepare to run.
    | 
    | 
    | 
    | Scheduling physicist,
    | 
    | Kin
    |
