April 4 Briefs Excerpts:

JLab Gets New Street, Building and Informational Signs
JLab now has new street, building and informational signs. The new street signs should make it easier for visitors, vendors and new staff and users to make their way around the lab and will present a more uniform, recognizable appearance. For more info, see the full Briefs or the posted announcement: https://www.jlab.org/memo/2012_New_Signs.html

Heavy Traffic at CEBAF Center Circle Midday on April 5
A JLab Physics Fest, a two-hour field trip for students, is scheduled for 10 a.m. - noon in the CEBAF Center auditorium on Thursday. As students depart, their buses converge on the CEBAF Center Circle, which can temporarily block westbound traffic on Kelvin Drive (formerly the South Connector Road). All JLab roads are no passing zones; therefore, westbound vehicles must stop and wait for the bus traffic to move completely into the circle before proceeding. To avoid this potential traffic delay, use Hadron Drive to Rattley Road or to Pauli Drive (formerly the North Connector Road) to leave the lab on Physics Fest days. More information, and a calendar of upcoming Physics Fests, is available online: https://www.jlab.org/memo/2012_Traffic_CEBAF_Circle.html

Tornado Warning Siren Test Set for Noon Friday
JLab's tornado warning siren will undergo its monthly operational test at noon on Friday, April 6. Don't respond to the siren; this is a test of the siren system and not a personnel response exercise. Individuals planning to be in the Central Materials Storage Area while the siren is being tested must have with them and wear hearing protection. More information can be found in the all-staff memo: https://www.jlab.org/memo/2012_Tornado_Siren.html
