[Dlsupport] LERF budgets for FY 17

Last year we had two budgets for the LERF, LERFMT and LERFOP.  We never populated LERFOP and put all operations expenses on LERFMT.  During the next FY Kelly Webster and I would like to use the original structure so that LERFOP is now related to operations and LERFMT is just maintaining things so that we can turn the machine on.  All costs of hot check-out and repair will be in LERFOP.  I have put together two budgets, for these two accounts in the attached spreadsheet.  It is separated into Engineering and Accelerator areas.  Each account is on its own tab.  Please look this over and see if the numbers are realistic. Have I missed something or grossly underestimated something?  
Note that, with the continuing resolution budget numbers, all we will be able to afford will be LERFMT.  Once we have a real budget we can activate LERFOP when funds are identified for it. Also any upgrades would have to funded using new funds.
We have briefly discussed the idea of running the LERF just a day or two per month.  This idea has not yet been costed yet so the LERFOP budget here assumes two weeks of HCO followed by 6 weeks of operations with 5 days of running and two shifts/day of operations.  If more funds are available we could extend this running or break it up into two running periods.  If less funds are available we would have to reduce the time available.
