<b><br>
U.S. Department of State Issues Updated Travel Caution</b><br>
The U.S. Department of State has
updated its worldwide travel caution. Intelligence and security
agencies are on heightened alert for terrorist attacks against U.S.
interests both at home and abroad. If you have an approved foreign
trip
coming up, the foreign travel section in the JLab Travel office will
update you if there is any change before your travel date.<br>

Information Session Offered May 5 on Permits for Digging,
Excavating or Making Floor/Wall Penetrations at JLab</b><br>
JLab has extensive buried utilities. Many buildings also have
electrical conduit, piping and data/communication cables within
walls and embedded in floor slabs. If you have work that requires
digging or drilling into soil or making a blind penetration into
walls or floors with tools or fasteners, you should attend a special
30-minute presentation at 1:30 p.m. in the CEBAF Center auditorium
on Thursday, May 5. The brief information session will cover
everything you need to know regarding the processes for this type of
work at JLab.<br>
