[Halld-pid] Start Counter Meeting Minutes, January 24, 2013

[Beni Zihlmann]

Hi all,
I would like to clarify here one point about shipping of equipment away 
from the lab.

If there is a contract with a contract number in place between jlab and 
an institution
then there is no problem to send whatever is needed for the 
construction/testing of
the detector to that institution to fulfil the contract.

If however there exists only a MOU between the lab and an institution 
and the lab wants
to send some equipment to that institution then DOE approval is required.

cheers,
Beni
