Four win Employee Performance Awards | ||
| ||
|
On Tuesday afternoon, Fermilab Director Michael Witherell presented Fermilab
Employee Performance Recognition Awards to Ron Moore (BD-Tevatron Dept.)
and Keith Gollwitzer (BD-Antiproton Source), for their work as Run
Coordinators; Jeff Spalding (BD-Headquarters), for preparing and implementing
the Run II plan; and Duane Plant (BD-Engineering Support), for his role
in the reclamation of water from the NuMI
underground enclosures for use in laboratory operations,
saving 450,000 gallons a day. During the presentations, which included
cake and coffee for the reception on the second floor crossover of
Wilson Hall, Witherell congratulated the recipients
and called the awards the equivalent of winning a medal for valor.

Together, they've worked here for 43 years. But they've only worked
here together since the beginning of the current accelerator
shutdown. Fate

from the Particle Physics Division together to work in Beams. Here they're
responsible for logistics-getting supplies to workers in the Main Injector
and servicing the work areas and buildings.

Computer Network Outage Tomorrow Thursday morning, starting at 6:00 a.m., the core router in the Feynman Computing Center will be upgraded. The router maintenance involves a major hardware upgrade, including replacement of central processor, power supplies, and fan tray. The outage is expected to last for 30 minutes. The outage will affect a large part of the site network, including disrupting network access to FCC computing resources, as well as access to the rest of the site from CDF, D0, CMS User Facility, TD, the Fixed Target area, the Village area, and the Site 38/39 area.
