6. Unclaimed cables in BA1
Je suis en train de traiter chacun d’entre eux, mais après avoir fait un petit point sur la situation, il s’avère que certains des câbles n’ont été checkés par aucun utilisateur. Sur les 1112 câbles concernés par la campagne, j’ai reçu 830 validations. Il me reste donc 230 câbles « orphelins ». Pour certains, je n’ai pas eu de retour de la part des utilisateurs, merci de me le faire suivre urgemment. Pour d’autres, ils devaient faire des recherches plus approfondies afin de s’assurer de la décision à prendre, merci de me tenir informé si les choses ont évolué. Je vous demanderais s’il vous plait, de regarder à nouveau la liste en attachement, et me faire savoir si certains des câbles seraient passés à travers « les mailles du filet ». Dans le cas ou personne serai en mesure de se prononcer sur les câbles restant, je demanderai à la coordination et responsables du complexe SPS, de me donner leur aval pour la suppression de ces derniers. En vous remerciant par avance de votre coopération, Salutations Guillaume Gros

9. Planning for the next few months

11. Shielding Wall between TT40 and TJ8
Dear all, We are re-measuring all the links between the different accelerators and we got trouble with one shielding wall between TT40 and TJ8. In order to pass the horizontal measurements from the SPS through TT40 and TI8 towards the LHC we would need to pass the shielding wall in TT40. This link has not been done since the installation in 2002 and it would be a unique opportunity to do this and to modify the shielding to allow an easier opening in the future. I have met Sylvain this afternoon to have a look on site. In a first approach I`m asking for the partial opening of the shielding to allow the line of sight to pass. I will make the EDH request right now. Does anybody, in particular RP has any objections for the opening? In a second approach one needs to see if the shielding wall can be closed in an way that will allow an easier opening in the future…. Please find enclosed a description of the needed modification. Best regards, Patrick

Below is a table showing the dates that EL will be pulling cables at each point of the SPS.
During these periods large sections of the false floor in these surface buildings will be lifted.
Any works in the BA’s that involve lifting of the false floors MUST be reported to the Coordination team

21. A.O.B.
The new date for the test AUTOTRANSFERT will probably be on 30th and 31st of August. This work should be transparent and not affect access into the SPS.
There are currently 38 IMPACTs that are “LATE”. If you have completed your work then you need to close the related IMPACT.
Franck and myself have moved office. We are now in B10 (same phone numbers)
I will be absent from CERN from Monday the 5th August until Monday the 26th August. You can contact Franck or James on matter concerning the SPS.
