2 25-Sep-2012Director's CD-1 Review of the LBNE Project 2 Agenda for Exec Session Charge to Reviewers Agenda Assignments/Write-ups Discussion

3 Charge (Excerpts) The Committee is to conduct a Director’s Review of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) Project. The Committee is to assess if the project meets the Critical Decision 1 (CD-1) “Approve Alternative Selection & Cost Range” requirements as specified in DOE O 413.3B. Additionally this review is a preparation for a planned DOE Independent Project Review/Independent Cost Review (IPR/ICR) scheduled for October 30 – November 1, 2012. 25-Sep-2012Director's CD-1 Review of the LBNE Project 3

4 Charge (Excerpts Continued) The project has been reconfigured and the scope changed since the March 2012 Director’s Review. The scope change was necessary to meet cost objectives provided by DOE OHEP after the design presented at the March Director’s Review had been developed. The revised CD-1 scope consists of the neutrino beamline, tertiary muon detectors to monitor the neutrino beam, and a far LAr TPC detector on the surface on the Sanford Laboratory site. There are several options that may be pursued that could result in future modifications to the Project’s scope with non-DOE funding. However, these are not part of the CD-1 scope that is the subject of this review, and they will be presented for background only. 25-Sep-2012Director's CD-1 Review of the LBNE Project 4

5 Charge (Excerpts Continued) The committee is to review the changes to the project’s design since the Director’s Independent Conceptual Design and CD-1 Review conducted on March 26-30, 2012 for the scope presented. The main focus of this review is to look at the project’s cost, schedule, management, and ES&H. The project will present a Cost Range that the review committee is to assess and determine if it is appropriate based on the following factors: the scope of work; the maturity of the design; the Basis of Estimate (BOE); and the risks associated with the scope of work. 25-Sep-2012Director's CD-1 Review of the LBNE Project 5

6 Charge (Excerpts Continued) Furthermore, the committee is asked to review and assess the quality of and comment on the additional formal project management documentation required for CD-1 approval. In performance of a general assessment of the Project’s progress, current status, and the identification of potential issues, the committee should address the specific questions on attachment 1. Additionally the committee is to review and comment on the Project’s response and actions taken on the relevant recommendations from the March 2012 Director’s Review. 25-Sep-2012Director's CD-1 Review of the LBNE Project 6
