This is documented in the RadCon Manual, the General Access RWP and Radiation Worker I training. In addition, there are signs in work areas stating this fact. Disregarding this and similar requirements may lead to your training and authorization to work being revoked and can lead to unnecessary and possibly harmful radiation exposures.</font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><br></font></div><div><b><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">CCPR from Anywhere</font></b></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">The Information Technology Division is pleased to report that the CCPR system (Computer Center Problem Reporting) is now available from offsite.

If so, plan to attend the Publications Refresher information session on Tuesday, April 12, 9-10 a.m. in CEBAF Center Room L102/104. The session will provide attendees with an overview of the process authors follow to have their papers reviewed and approved before public distribution. The process isn't difficult, but may be confusing for new staff and students as well as for individuals who haven't submitted a paper or other type of publication in recent years. Information sessions are held quarterly. Staff, users and students are invited to attend. Email Kim Kindrew to sign up for the session. Capacity is 40.</font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><br></font></div><div><b><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">Tracking Thomas at JLab</font></b></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial">Congratulations to Jason Willoughby and all honorable mentions (see Briefs) for correctly identifying Thomas' location last week.
