## Charge

- Witherell to Finley
- Draft of Holmes 29 January "Identify users of protons over the period 2003-2010 and the demands represented by each. Establish realistic technical goals for delivery of protons, both from  the Booster and Main Injector, over the period. Identify major modifications to the Proton Source and Main Injector that will be required to meet these goals assuming availability of Fermilab resources at the few x $10M level over the period. Identify possible resources and opportunities for collaboration by institutions outside Fermilab. Suggest a organization for implementing a program of modifications, including opportunities for integration of outside collaborators."

## Some Issues

- Running MiniBooNE and NuMI contemporaneously
**con·tem·po·ra·ne·ous** *adj. *Originating, existing, or happening during the same period of time as in *the contemporaneous reigns of two monarchs.*
- Administration of controlled vs. uncontrolled losses
- Intensity and/or scheduling
- “$$$, people, time” and/or Program Planning
- Linac and MI Fixed Target are scheduling (I suspect)
- NuMI, MiniBooNE, Run II are Intensity
- Better protection for workers
- And ...
