Here are Jim's comments about the review:<br>
<br>
I want to thank you all again for your hard work that has gotten
us to where we are today. The OPA review went very well, as you
can see in the attached closeout presentation.<o:p> <br>
</o:p>
<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">We have a few recommendations to address
and there are some good comments for our consideration as
well, but we definitely cleared the bar with plenty of
margin.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I do want to highlight a comment from
Paul Mantica (ONP) during the closeout. He was very
impressed with the tight integration of the physicists and
engineers and the iterative design/simulation you all have
been doing. He recognizes the importance of this to the
success of a high precision measurement and it was clear to
him how closely the teams are working together. Well done.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We got a universal “well done” from all
the reviewers, as well as “but there is a lot of wok
remaining to get to CD-2/3.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Again, many thanks to you all –
especially the grad students, postdocs, engineers and
designers who are plugging away to get the designs finished.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>Best regards,</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>KK, Jim, and Mark<br>
