  Announcements 25m
  - IMPACTS for 2017 5m
    
    Guidelines for filling in IMPACT requests
    
    New IMPACT for 2017 ! Please create a new IMPACT (clone the last one).
    This will avoid problems with changes made to IMPACT during the last year.
    
    Please REVIEW your IMPACT (people, procedures, gas requirements... might have changed)
    
    Proposal : One IMPACT per setup.
    
    two chambers on individual supports -> 2 IMPACT declarations
    
    multiple chambers swapped on same or similar support -> one IMPACT declaration
    
    basically, if you need two locations, please make two IMPACT declaration (clone)
    
    Each Setup should have IMPACT label attached with number. We can provide paper labels.
    
    Attached documents : CAD file (if available, otherwise dimensions). Picture ?
    
    Review working hours : if your declaration includes the bunker area, please state the number of hours you want to stay INSIDE the bunker only (for RP purposes). If your work is outside, please state the whole number of hours.
  - Upcoming Interventions 5m
    
    Scheduled:
    ---------------
    
    12.01.2017 Possible Restart of Irradiation
    
    09.01.2017 Restart of Gas Supply
    
    19.12.2016 17h until March 17, 2017 (!) the entire cooling of the building 887 will be stopped.
    
    05.01-18.01 (+7d) - EHN1 crane unavailable. No opening of bunker area.

    30.03 - DSO Test
    
    To be scheduled :
    ----------------------
    
    Commissioning of the gas detection - last part of EYETS - 1 week full stop of GIF.
    Proposed to join with maintenance of the irradiator
    
    Installation of upstream XTDV table: 1 week of full stop - waiting for feedback (our proposal was to start 1 week before DSO test)
    
    Bunker door - new door (3.2m high) agreed - waiting for design from EN
    
    Painting of lead bricks - removal and reinstall of all lead bricks (March-April ?)
  - New Announcements 5m
  - AOB 5m
    
    Any Other Business
    
    GAS BILL : please note that the EP-DT budget for GIF does not cover consumables.
    Gas used at the GIF++ will have to be paid by the consumer. We will start the TIDs now.
    
    FOR NEXT YEAR : Operational budget for the GIF has been reduced by ≈ 20%
    
    Bottles : To replace the missing one.
    ATLAS :
    
    PATROL RIGHTS H4 :
    -----------------------------
    We have many people who confuse access to the bunker with the right to patrol the (entire !) beam-line.
    Therefore EN gets a high number of requests for H4-Patrol, but prefer only a few people to be able to do it.
    They will now REJECT any request that has not been signed by us first.
    
    So if you need patrol rights (renewed) please forward the request first to me for signature.
    Then it should go through. If not, contact me I will follow it up.
