Comments on Technical Systems

• Main magnet designs have been completed. Prototype dipole, quadrupole and sextupole magnets meet design specifications and have been accepted by the project.
• Standard girder vacuum chambers are in production. The first machined QEC chambers have arrived and production welding will begin in March.
• The RF cavities are on track for FY2001 delivery. The 1.2 MW klystron will undergo acceptance testing later this month.
• The accelerator physics program is steadily making progress and meeting milestones.
• The I&C system continues to fefine the computer control system; hardware is being tested.
• The project has formalized agreements to utilize SLAC resources for the SPEAR3 cable plant.
