1. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Budget Request Fred Raab October 3, 2000

2. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Request2 Five Task Numbers are Easy Each typically ~1% of budget; straight 3% escalation Tasks: »2.4Optics »2.5Electronics »2.7Administration »2.9Shop (a.k.a. “Stockroom” Of these, all are in line with previous experience except for electronics, which has overrun due to PEM repairs (hopefully non-recurring) Request $156.3K in FY2001 vs $154.7 in FY2000

3. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Request3 2.1 Salaries, Travel, etc. ~50% of total Hanford budget Request $2,519K in FY2001 vs 2,079K in FY2000 Adding 250K for salaries (20 FTEs -> 25 FTEs); incl. all “on-board” heads, planned postdoc, new operator; salaries escalated by 4% Benefits, overhead follows salaries New basis for equipment (150K vs 78K) – allows for 25K “new stuff” + replace “support equipment” in 7yrs Travel esc. by 1.03, despite new staff; will underrun this year by 25K No Tax line carried forward (mistake?)

4. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Request4 2.2 Facilities Should request $844K (not $951K, my error) compared to $726K budgeted for this year (delta = $118K or 16%) Otto will spend all of this year’s budget Next year expected expanded scope (2 new bldgs); so used 1.2x (electricity, landscaping, HVAC, janitorial, facility repairs, contract labor); then esc. by 3%

5. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Request5 2.3 Vacuum System Requested $243.4K in FY2001 vs $248.8K in FY2000 Found two errors: »Wrong baseline: added $10K mid-year to cover RGA repairs (likely recurring) »Found error in spreadsheet on 3% escalation Should have requested $255.6K This year will be underspent by $40K due to lower than expected LN2 use caused by detector delays Risk: energy surcharge could persist into next year

6. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Request6 2.5 Data/Computing Request should be $192K in FY2001 vs $183K in FY2000 (within $1K) Projecting $184K will be spent in FY2000 Significant fraction of billing is quantized, so need to be careful in 10-month budgeting Note: tape cost for LSC members is expected to be reimbursed

7. LIGO Hanford Observatory FY2001 Request7 2.8 Interferometer Installation/Commissioning Request $837.9 in FY2001 vs $870.2 in FY2000 (originally budgeted for $1,050.7 in FY2000) Travel (direct cost) @ $40K/mo; averaged $22K/mo in FY2000; Equipment @ $42K down from FY2000 budget of $75K Supplies @ $89K down from FY2000 budget of $168.6K and projected FY2000 spending of $90K Subcontracts @ $76K down from $156K budgeted this year and $115K projected by year end.
