<div class="PlainText">Getting to the detector will require breaking down the upstream beamline, taking the raster magnet off the target cart, moving the target upstream, moving CVT upstream, moving solenoid upstream, and moving HTCC. Then we will have to put
everything back together and align it. This also may interfere with the solenoid work.<br>
<br>
Denny, Morgan, could you give an estimate of how long this work may take?<br>
