Dear Colleagues,

On Monday, May 4, Governor Northam extended certain restrictions on businesses and gatherings through Thursday, May 14. He also indicated that the Commonwealth of Virginia, subject to continued improvement in various public health metrics, will likely proceed to Phase 1 of easing restrictions on Friday, May 15. I realize that this announcement has likely raised questions regarding Jefferson Lab’s timeline for resuming on-site operations.

While we have been developing our plans over the last several weeks, the Governor’s announcement provides the first indication of the general timeframe in which we would seek to begin restoring on-site operations at Jefferson Lab. We will be in a position to share those plans, including more detailed timelines, with supervisors, staff and the lab community next week. Likewise, we will be sharing our plans with the Department of Energy, who may provide additional guidance.

I want to emphasize that restoring on-site operations at Jefferson Lab will be a complicated, multi-step process carried out over a period of time, with an emphasis on the safety of our staff, Users and subcontractors. In the initial phase, consistent with a reduction in the threat level to MEDCON 5, a limited number of the lab community will be called back to on-site work, with the majority continuing to work remotely. Staff, Users and subcontractors will be instructed how and when they may return to the lab. After an initial re-orientation period, we will slowly and deliberately begin restoring on-site operations in the highest priority roles. We have decided to resume CEBAF operations this summer to complete the physics run that was interrupted in late March.

Resuming on-site operations has many complexities and requires considerable planning, communication and preparation. We are working through those complexities as we speak. I look forward to sharing our plans with you next week.

Thanks again for supporting our scientific mission during this difficult time.

Please stay safe and healthy.
Stuart
