New proposals will be granted a 20 minute presentation in a public session at the PAC meeting.
Following the public presentation session the PAC will continue its discussions in closed
session, and at least one spokesperson should be available either in person or
by phone for 24 hours after the public session to answer questions as the PAC's
discussion progresses. Proposals will, if approved, be given a scientific
rating and a beamtime allocation. <o:p></o:p></span></pre>

mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"">In the past, proposals from Hall B that would run in parallel with previously
approved proposals were separately considered by the PAC. Beginning with PAC40,
the Hall B collaboration should submit proposals for complete run groups at one
PAC meeting, where all of the anticipated physics associated with the proposed
run group will be considered. Each run group can submit up to 4 individual
proposals (up to 3 physics topics plus 1 summary of additional topics) and will
be granted a maximum of 4 presentations corresponding to these proposals. New
experimental proposals that run in parallel with previously approved run groups
should be considered internally by the CLAS12 collaboration. A CLAS12
representative will have the opportunity to report on these to the PAC, and the
PAC will then provide comments on them in its report. Proposed parallel running

organized into "run groups". Run groups include multiple experiments
that can take data simultaneously on different and/or related physics using the
same detector, target, and beam conditions. In addition to the individual
experiment ratings reviews discussed above for the experiments within the run
groups, we will carry out a review of the run groups themselves to establish
their overall scientific priority. This will be done in a PAC session roughly
one year before CLAS12 starts taking data. If similar situations evolve in the
other halls we will do a similar "overall scientific priority"
assignment to the run groups that evolve there. </span><span style="mso-bidi-font-size:
