The JINR engineering infrastructure is a multi component structure of the interacting elements. The following subsystems have the greatest effect on integrative properties of the entire system: operability assurance of the JINR basic facilities; supply of energy resources; safety protection of vitally important and potentially dangerous elements of the JINR infrastructure communication service; DEVELOPMENT OF THE JINR ENGINEERING INFRASTRUCTURE 7-Year Plan ( ) (First approach)

BASIC FACILITIES G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, Development of the JINR engineering infrastructure is the necessary condition for the operation of basic facilities and the basement for new facility creation according to the 7-Year Plan ( ). The programme of basic facilities development and creation is the subject of the 7-Year scientific programmes of JINR Laboratories. NICA-MPD DRIBs IBR-2M IREN

ELECTRIC POWER G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, At presentPlansGoals Main step-down station 1 (GPP-1) P=19 MW 2 transformers + 15 MW + 1 transformer LHEP (NICA) Main step-down station 2 (GPP-2) P=25 MW 2 transformers + 19 MW + 2 transformers DRIBs, IBR-2, Phasotron Other independent sources of electric power + 4 MW (Moscow Channel Company); +12 MW (autonomic power station) To release the load of the main step-down stations 1 and 2 Approx. cost ( ): ~ 4.3 M$ including budget: ~ 0.1 M$ to increase the total power; to improve reliability; to provide independent power supply of the basic facilities. Objectives:

HEAT AND WATER SUPPLY G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, Boiler-houses and heat network: Automation of boiler-houses. Replacement of the steam- boiler in the East boiler-house. Reconstruction and replacement of the heat network. Heat control and accounting systems. Plan: Replacement of the outdated equipment Goal: Reliability, modern equipment, economy Water supply: Enlargement and reconstruction of the pumping-filtering station. Automation of the drinking water preparation. Reconstruction and replacement of the water pipes. Water accounting. Approx. cost ( ): ~14.1 M$ including budget: ~ 2.5 M$ Activities to be continued:

RADIATION SAFETY G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, Objectives: Purchasing of devices and the equipment for the radiation control. Purchasing of a mobile radiological laboratory. (*) Reconstruction and development of new systems of the radiation control (e.g. IBR-2M, NICA, IREN). (*) Disposal of the used radioactive sources. Handling with the radioactive wastes. Metrological maintenance of the radiation control. Accreditation of the radiation control laboratory. (*) - financial means of JINR Laboratories Approx. cost ( ): ~ 0.5 M$

LABOUR PROTECTION AND INDUSTRIAL SAFETY G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, Main Goals: Providing safe and healthy working conditions for personnel. Ensuring prescribed benefits and compensation for appropriate category of workers. Realization of preventive actions to avoid traumatism, industrial- caused diseases, and also emergencies and failures. Activities to be continued: Certification of workplaces in regard to working conditions to validate, in particular, available benefits and compensation for work in harmful and/or dangerous working conditions. Scheduled replacement of morally and physically outdated equipment and technical devices. Re-equipment of the JINR Industrial and Sanitary Lab with modern instrumentation to take more precisely measurements and online processing of parameters and levels of the harmful and dangerous production factors. Technical upgrade of workplaces of the specialists on labour protection in the JINR departments. Advanced training in the fields of labour and industrial safety for the JINR experts and department heads. The JINR University Center can be involved in this activity.

FIRE SAFETY G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, FIRE STATION control panel GOALS: Re-equipment of the fire station with fire engineering. Modern control panel (GSM, large covering area, etc.). Gradual replacement of the RID-1 annunciators Persistent activities to maintain the JINR infrastructure in accordance with the fire safety requirements. JINR annunciators including ~3500 RID-1 which have to be replaced 7 automatic gas fire-fighting systems Approx. cost ( ): ~ 2 M$

TELEPHONY G.Shirkov, JINR Scientific Council, At Present: Analog station ( ) users (~3800 at JINR). Old network (copper wires). High energy consumption. Space requirement is around 950 m 2. No additional services (IP-telephony, etc.). Does not meet the modern requirements of Russian Federal regulations. In the Future: Digital electronic station. Scalability. Optical connection. Low cost of international and long distance calls. Floor space and electricity saving. Approx. cost: ~ 0.5 M$
