LCLS Users' Organization Executive Committee
The LCLS Users' Organization (LCLS UO) provides an organized framework and independent vehicle for interaction between the scientists who will use the Linac Coherent Light Source (the users) and LCLS/SLAC Management. The LCLS UO is broadly concerned with representing the interests of the LCLS users to SLAC management, so as to facilitate the availability and effective use of LCLS for the research community.
The LCLS Users' Executive Committee (LCLS UEC) is the formal organizational unit of the LCLS UO. LCLS UEC members are elected by the members of the LCLS user community. The UOEC communicates the needs and desires of users regarding LCLS operating policies, use of LCLS, user support, and other relevant issues of concern to those engaged in research at this facility.

LCLS UEC members serve a three-year term, with the exception of the person elected Chair, who serves on the committee two additional years to facilitate continuity of LCLS UEC activities.
