4. LCLS Science Program Begins in 2009
Instrument teams will participate in first use of instruments
Terms of access discussed at last Team Leader Meeting, June
X-Ray beam parameters in early operations
Cumulative time limit on early access
Transition to open access as soon as practical
Learning from FLASH experience
Facility mgmt actively encourages formation of collaborations among competing groups which have submitted similar proposals

6. LCLS Operations FY 2009 post-CD-4a(7/2009): FY 2010:
Near Hall Operations
AMO
FY 2010:
NEH
AMO through 2/2010 (LUSI CD-4a milestone)
AMO, XPP, CXI thereafter
FEH available post-CD-4b(5/2010)
CXI permanent home in FEH
Schedule for relocation TBD

16. LCLS Commissioning is integrated with ASD
LCLS Project

17. Matrix Support vs. Stand-Alone Operations Organization
APS, NSLS are approximately stand-alone
SNS is embedded in Neutron Science Directorate, sharing parts of organization
Accelerator operations/maintenance/upgrade is all dedicated to SNS
ALS has matrix support from LBNL for engineering and accelerator physics
Stable and predictable
