CEM construction contingency plan

General information

Changed:
<
<		CUNY will build a new laboratory building adjacent to the NYSBC. Although the plan was for the construction to start in the summer of 2008, it can tentatively start as early as Spring. It is very likely that vibrations caused by the construction equipment will interfere with the operation of the electron microscopes, and therefore some scheduling changes will need to be made. The CEM staff is committed to working with the affiliates to minimize the inconveniences during construction, and insure the continuity of the research programs. Below is an outline of changes that we plan to make. We are open to suggestions and would like to hear about any concerns.
