Coordination Meeting - Site and Facilities (WBS 6)

A coordination meeting was held on October 25 with Larry Dudek, Bob Simmons, Jerry levine, Jim Chrzanowski, Phil Heitzenroeder, and Wayne Reiersen.  Three topics were discussed:

Reiersen provided a revised WBS Dictionary.  The revised WBS also reflects the new guidance that everything required through the Initial Ohmic Phase of operations (Phase 3) should be part of the construction project.  Also, everything required for the installation and testing of the two neutral beams (e.g., water cooling) should also be part of the construction project.  The revised WBS Dictionary for WBS 6 (including revisions made as part of the coordination meeting) is posted here.

The following positions/action items were adopted:

1. The vacuum manifold around the device should be moved to Vacuum Pumping Systems (WBS 22) pending concurrence from Henry Kugel. [Kugel]
2. Tom Brown (WBS 82) should expedite development of a general arrangement drawing for the test cell and basement.  The drawing would show where the pits are located, the shield walls, the entrances to the Test Cell, and the basement layout.  There was strong sentiment for placing the device in the center of the NCSX Test Cell to maximize space around the device.  [Brown]
3. Seismic and shielding requirements need to be developed for the shield blocks. [Reiersen]
4. The vacuum pumping system might have to be exhausted to the outside world.  Monitoring did not appear necessary but this should be confirmed. [Kugel]
5. Responsibility for clearing the TFTR racks from the PLT/PBX Test Cell needs to be assigned and scheduled. [Chrzanowski]
6. Chrzanowski will update the description of WBS 621 - Test Cell Cleanup to reflect tasks undertaken and completed by other organizations, e.g. removal of the lead in the Test Cell by ER/WM. [Chrzanowski]
7. WBS 62 was changed to C-Site (CS) Water Cooling System Modifications.  The NCSX project, as its only user, will take ownership of the CS Water Cooling System and be responsible for the modifications required.  The interface to the C-site infrastructure will be at the chillers, pending concurrence by JW Anderson. [Dudek]
8. Vacuum Vessel & PFC Heating and Cooling (WBS 625) was moved out of WBS 62 and renumbered as WBS 65.
9. The NCSX Project needs to document what it is relying on the ES&H and Infrastructure Support Department to provide.  Specific items include fire suppression in the test cell, test cell ventilation and dew point control (HVAC), roofing over experimental areas, and leak-proof walls. [Reiersen]

Work plans for WBS 6 leading up to the CDR should should be drafted and include the following:

1. Identify space requirements for each WBS.  Identify all site prep work. (Chrzanowski, 12/21)
2. Develop shielding and seismic requirements for test cell walls (Reiersen, 12/21)
3. Identify heating and cooling requirements for each WBS (Dudek, 12/21)
4. Determine work required to re-commission the C-Site helium supply system to deliver helium to the two neutral beams in the Test Cell (Dudek, 1/15)
5. Update the Conceptual Design of WBS 6 (Dudek, 2/15)
6. Develop cost and schedule inputs for Bob Simmons (Dudek, 3/1)
7. Develop system description for inclusion in CDR documentation (Dudek, 3/15)
8. Prepare presentation for CDR (Dudek, 3/31)

Current resource allocations for this task are:

Work plans should be drafted and resource requirements identified (Dudek, 11/9).  All work against this job should be charged to 1808-NCSX-6X01.
