## Transitioning to Operations

- A phased transition to NSLS-II operations is planned:
- CD-4a – Initial Operations
- Beneficial Occupancy of Experimental Floor
- Initial limited storage ring operations and limited user operations during installation and commissioning of beamlines
- CD-4b – Start of Operations
- All commissioning goals have been achieved
- Transitioning from NSLS to NSLS-II
- Plan to begin this transition as early as possible
- Continue operations of NSLS until NSLS-II operational (CD-4b)
- Move NSLS programs to NSLS-II between CD-4a and CD-4b
- NSLS and NSLS-II staff merge to operate NSLS-II

## Transferring NSLS Beamlines to NSLS-II

- Goal: Ensure significant capacity for NSLS-II at the commencement of 	operation
- Primarily techniques with high demand, high productivity
- Mainly occupy 3-pole wigglers and soft-bends
- Certain end-stations may go to insertion device beamlines
- Expect to transfer about 20 beamlines, likely covering the following techniques:
- EXAFS, SAXS, powder diffraction, scattering, PX, imaging, microdiffraction, topography, far-IR spectroscopy.
- Estimate that these could accommodate at least 1300 users/yr
- Approach has been endorsed by NSLS SAC and NSLS-II EFAC

## NSLS & NSLS-II Operations Staffing

|  | NSLS | NSLS-II |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | FTEs (2007) | FTEs for Operations with No Beamlines | FTEs for Operations with 66% of Beamlines (~38) | FTEs for Operations with all Beamlines (~57) |
| Scientists | 34 | 46 | 172 | 232 |
| Engineers | 23 | 32 | 52 | 62 |
| Designers | 10 | 10 | 30 | 40 |
| Technicians | 61 | 89 | 129 | 149 |
| Computer Analysts | 11 | 23 | 27 | 29 |
| Admin/Secretarial | 20 | 35 | 39 | 41 |
| Total | 159 | 235 | 449 | 553 |

## NSLS & NSLS-II Staffing Profile

- Based on CD-1 Project Profile

## NSLS-II Space Requirements at Full Operations

|  | FTEs in Single Offices | FTEs in Shared Offices | FTEs in Bench or Design Area | Total FTEs |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| NSLS-II LOB | 92 | 107 | 67 | 266 |
| NSLS-II OC | 6 | 1 | 63 | 70 |
| JPSI | 23 | 12 | 7 | 42 |
| NSLS | 93 | 34 | 48 | 175 |
| Total | 214 | 154 | 185 | 553 |

## NSLS-II Operating Cost at Full Operations

| Description | Estimated FY14 Cost ($M) |
| --- | --- |
| Labor |  65.6 |
| On-site Services |    3.6 |
| Materials |  11.5 |
| Travel |    0.9 |
| Subcontracts |    8.1 |
| Electric Power |    8.2 |
| Space |    3.0 |
| Other Direct Costs |    2.6 |
| Laboratory Overheads |  36.8 |
| Total | $140.4M |

- Note: Equivalent to $110M in FY07 dollars

## NSLS-II and NSLS Funding Profile

## Summary/Challenges

- Transferring NSLS beamlines greatly accelerates XF build-out
- Developing plan for housing & merging NSLS & NSLS-II staff
- Issue: Remote location of accelerator & management staff in NSLS building
- _Challenges_
- Defining policy for transfer of equipment from PRTs
- NSLS SAC & UEC engaged; to be discussed at July NSLS-II User Workshop
- Seeking MIE funding for remaining beamlines
