<p class="MsoNormal">The blank-off of T2-M9 is progressing well
and the process is on schedule.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As indicated in my previous email on this
topic, we have considered an extension of the ‘normal’ current
operation of BL1 in order to make use of some unique
opportunities this year. <br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A number of factors where taken into
account in the discussion between the Accelerator Division and
the Science Division. A conclusion has been achieved where the
following factors have been considered, in particular:<br>
</p>
</o:smarttagtype><o:smarttagtype

<ul>
<li>Unique experimental conditions for M13, PiENu</li>
<li>Unique experimental conditions for M11, detector tests</li>
<li>Experimental test requirements for PIF</li>
<li>Required cool-down period of the cyclotron and beamlines
and required shutdown time for operation in April (given by
proton therapy schedule)<br>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">The following plan was made and is
reflected on the online Schedule 123:</p>
